Just This Once

Nan Hua nodded. She narrowed her eyes. "Is it too late to head over to the other secret passageway?"

Hou Lin furrowed his eyebrows. "They haven't reached the main hall yet. There might be a lot of soldiers waiting for them over there. Compared to this place, which only have one commander and several soldiers, there might be more people over at that side."

"I see. Let's go."

"Young Esteemed Miss?" Zhang Dan Shui was stunned to see Nan Hua ready to leave. He looked around him and felt awkward being left alone with so many dead bodies.

Nan Hua turned to look at Zhang Dan Shui. "What do you want?"

"Can I… work for you?" Zhang Dan Shui asked while gritting his teeth. He could guess that with his life already spared by this young girl, it might be a bit too much to ask. But he knew that having the chance to meet with them like this today would be extremely rare.

He didn't think that he would have another chance in the next few years.
