Ye Ying: "......"
"After all, Xi He is now a distinguished lady of the Bei Xia Beast Taming Clan. If she has close contact with people from Dong Chu Kingdom, it will give others something to talk about. I usually burn the letters after reading them."
Ye Ying explained, but his expression was somewhat unnatural, likely because he himself felt this explanation was rather weak.
It wasn't the real reason he burned the letters.
"Oh..." Jun Ning felt a bit disappointed but also sighed with relief.
She was disappointed because, after all this time, she had received no news of Lan Xihe, as if she and Lan Xihe had never been acquainted, remaining strangers throughout. She couldn't even see the letters she wrote to Ye Ying.
The relief came from the fact that not seeing the letters meant she couldn't confirm personally that Lan Xihe hadn't mentioned her in any letters.
As long as she didn't confirm it personally, she could pretend none of this had happened.
