Song Yu stood outside the government office waiting for Song Xian. Although he was now a Colonel, he held no actual position and had no documents in hand, thus he was blocked by the small government officials at the door.
Song Yu was determined to see Song Xian, whether it was to plead for Song Min or seek Song Xian's help, he would try no matter how slim the chance.
He troubled the officials to convey the message twice, yet Song Xian did not respond at all.
It wasn't until midnight when it started to snow that Song Yu was forced to be helped back home by those around him.
Inside the government office, Chang An heated a bowl of Sanqi Tea for Song Xian, adding cane syrup as Miss Xie had instructed.
The tea had been placed on the table and reheated twice, yet Song Xian kept his head buried in paperwork, ignoring it.
The room was very quiet, even Cheng Yanzhao opposite him read the documents without saying a word.
