411 Silent wishes

A few minutes later there was another guest at Yang Qing's abode who seemed like he had timed his visit perfectly to when Yang Qing was eating his meal. It was Feng Xin.

When he came he didn't talk much and just poured himself the wine on the table and took a few of the dishes that were spread about.

The two ate in silence for almost half an hour and when they had finished all the dishes on the table, Feng Xin stood up to leave.

"Feng Xin, there's no need to hold back anymore. I don't know why you did, Yi Jie isn't one to care about it.." Yang Qing muttered as Feng Xin was walking away halting him in his tracks.

"I know.." Feng Xin softly said.

"I'm headed to the mountain today, I've already left my cases to them.." he added as he left.

"All the best. Later you can tell me how the lightning tastes like, if it's any different from the rest.." Yang Qing said to the fading silhouette of Feng Xin.
