Bai Fei felt a bit nervous, standing in the crowd, almost retracting his head into his chest. It was only in moments like these that he desperately wished he were a tortoise, one that could retreat into its shell.
Even though he was a knight, and a knight of the mighty Tang Kingdom, he still didn't dare to show off in this setting because standing beside him was Lu Qianshan, and the rest of the big shots, none of whom he could afford to provoke.
A General who had lost his kingdom, he always seemed out of place on occasions like these. Every detail here, every glance from every person seemed to tear at his old scars.
Only at times like this did Bai Fei once again remember that he once commanded an army of fifty thousand as a Great General.
He didn't dare to harbor any resentment, nor did he have the standing to be angry. He just stood at the dock, idly staring as the cold sea breeze blew.
