Song Yanqing remained silent the entire time.
He just kept looking at Xie Ruotong, watching as the tears in her eyes suddenly brimmed over and then, drop by drop, slid down her face.
He didn't know how to answer Xie Ruotong's question.
He didn't know how to tell her.
The skull he was carrying in his hand belonged to Lin Qianyu.
They had captured Muge City, defeated the Beimu army, and he ordered the soldiers from the Bai Family to take down the skulls of the special forces soldiers that were hanging on the city walls.
For the other special forces, he instructed the soldiers to bring them back for proper burial.
Only Lin Qianyu's, he brought back for her.
But suddenly, he dared not hand it to her.
He was afraid that seeing it would cause her to collapse.
That she would find it hard to accept.
Song Yanqing's vision started to blur as well.
After an endless silence.
Xie Ruotong suddenly took it from Song Yanqing's hands on her own initiative.
