In a small tavern that opened early in the southeast of the city, Li Piaoqing held her sword, swaying slightly.
As soon as Li Weiru walked in, she sized up the girl from head to toe and let out a chuckle.
"...What are you laughing at?"
"Laughing at someone whose springtime fantasies have been fulfilled, with the glow of spring all over her face," Li Weiru said as she threw her sword on the table, sat down, and leisurely picked up a cup of clear wine. "Like a blooming flower."
"...Hmph," Li Piaoqing steadied her swaying body. "I came to tell you another piece of good news."
"Oh? Is there anything better than this?"
"Hey!" Li Piaoqing glared. "Do you want to hear the new good news or not? If not, I'm leaving."
