Ning Rushen suddenly remembered what Li Wuting had whispered to him before their parting: “Wait for me.”SIKdKmRRzVPrMdVZZMTJMnokjqRlrS
QDROkzSyfnqtRPsBut he didn’t expect it to be so soon… Is it because the situation in Lichuan is dire?OiLZQQwBAnHpMEAZkkJICASaOiZJaT
HgKONKmoaTxfRiD“No…” Ning Rushen reined in his thoughts and asked, “Is His Majesty going to Lichuan or coming to Changshui?”gqgHLqIYmmKPgscODBmztzUthqHYPu
