Even though autu Heng had long gotten used to the blazing heat and treated it as if it was air
Located in such a reone mad, it was no wonder that no one dared cos were very quiet, with the occasional breeze that refreshed and cooled a passerby for athem stifled in the unbearable heat
Long Heng walked up to the door of the Winter Garden Just as his servant was about to knock on the door, a light wind blew out of the residence, bringing with it a paper on which sorab it, but before he had the chance to look at it, a voice inside echoed, ”Mistress Xiu, a piece has been blown out by the wind”
It was followed by a soht wind cannot understand my words, so why does it have to steal what I write? What a scu…”
”Mistress Xiu, please o retrieve it” Xiao shi+ was unable to understand, just ere hermore and more coarse?
”No need; it's only a piece of scrap paper” The people inside no longer spoke, but Long Heng could hear the clarity in her words Hoas she possibly be sooneon the door and turned to leave
Walking away, he discovered that there was still a piece of paper within his hands The servant cahness, this humble servant will throw it out for you!” He had hurriedly come to his master's side when he saw histhe paper away

Therefore, she had to think of a plan to send it over to Song Jiaoyue whilst also not letting any outsiders learn of it It would be best not to write love poeed to crank a few out, but how to get one to hi
TheJiaoyue had co male cousin of his happened to stuxiu was overjoyed at this Here at last! If she didn'tdown her hard work of these past two months!
