The Journey Ahead

Lei Jing stopped carving and the wooden knife was left in her hand. Shen Lian said softly, "Jing Er, you can stop now."

Upon hearing that, her entire body felt relaxed. Fortunately, she did not fall and she spoke with exhaustion, "looks like you'll still have to complete the process of dotting in the eyes in the end."

Shen Lian smiled and said, "I've never said that I'll have to complete this process. You should sleep now. Tomorrow is the Palace's feast, he'll like it when you gift him this sculpture."

Lei Jing startled and said, "tomorrow is finally Palace's feast, why does time pass so quickly?"

She thought that only one or two days had passed because previously the period of time when she woke, there had been only the extremes of time that was in her mind. She thought that only one day had passed.
