Totoka River this long world like my thoughts

Mercenaries were a common commodity, but Hua was fooling herself if she thought that any would be as dedicated. Moreover, insubordination wasn't possible while in a position of power; her sister might have held the title, but Ying was in control. Without self-restraint and proper planning (neither of which Hua had exhibited), Ying might have moved to challenge her sister immediately upon returning home.

But she didn't. She kept her cool and shook her head, denying the offer. The conversation's shift was welcomed. Hydra, no. I don't think so. Their relationship would need drastic repairs — this could have been avoided! — before Ying even felt comfortable asking. 

I found Fengmian while away. Maybe..., she swallowed and looked away, though only for a moment, He would make a good husband.
