On a wide official road.
A luxurious carriage sped forward.
A corner of the curtain was lifted, revealing a stunningly beautiful face.
Su Jin gazed at the rolling hills in the distance.
The sky was azure, as if it had been washed clean.
Large clouds drifted by.
The wind slipped into the carriage, bringing a faint scent of fresh grass.
Xingxing rummaged in her satchel, took out a package wrapped in oilpaper, and popped a sour fruit into her mouth.
The sourness made her eyes squint, yet she looked utterly satisfied.
She handed the oilpaper package to Su Jin.
"Miss, I brought candied fruit. Want some?" Xingxing mumbled unclearly.
Su Jin turned her head.
The red fruit glistened invitingly.
She reached out and took one.
After popping it into her mouth, she casually asked, "How much longer until we arrive?"
Xingxing shook her head.
She didn't know.
Receiving no reply, she lifted the curtain and asked the driver, "My lady is asking you a question."
