On the highway, a bus bound for the Imperial Capital was steadily on its course.
The most eye-catching pair on the bus was a young man and woman sitting in the last row.
The man quietly read a book in his hand, occasionally glancing at the scenery whizzing by outside the window. Despite his youth, he exuded an aura of maturity and had deep-set eyes.
The girl beside him was listening to music through her headphones. Her skin was as delicate as jade, and her bright eyes and gleaming teeth in stark contrast. She would hum a few lines from time to time, also occasionally glancing at the young man beside her.
This young man was Chen Feng, who was returning to the Imperial Capital after leaving the borderlands, but the girl was not Long Qi.
Long Qi was also on the bus but she chose to sit near the door because she felt that sitting there allowed her to guard against or eliminate any potential threats from outsiders at the earliest opportunity.
