The duo was ushered into a well-crafted carriage, following General Zhang Li and her entourage. Being the only ones deemed worthy of her attention, Zhang Li treated her guests with the utmost care.
The interior of the carriage was a stark contrast to its sharp and stern exterior, it was painted in a deep red reminiscent of her dress and adorned with intricate floral embroideries, embedded with shimmering crystals.
The luxurious setting seemed to be a reflection of the general's complex nature—both fierce and elegant.
Inside the carriage, Wei Xi and Yan Jin sat together, facing the Zhang siblings. Zhang Li, her sharp eyes resting on the pair, broke the silence. "We have introduced ourselves. It is your turn."
"I am Xiao Xi, and this is my brother, Huang," Wei Xi replied in a serious tone.
