Gu Mojin looked again at the name on the report. "Then we will meet her when she arrives. I am curious to see whether her judgement is as good as her swordsmanship."
Su Nanxin closed the file and slipped her hand through her wife's arm as they left the council chamber. "Just remember to let her finish answering before you begin testing her with questions."
"I always let people finish."
"You finish their sentences for them when you think you already know the answer."
"Only when they are taking too long."
"Gu Mojin."
The Alliance Leader sighed. "I will try."
Su Nanxin gave her a satisfied look. It was not the first time she had asked her wife to be patient with a young cultivator, and it would certainly not be the last. Still, the thought of meeting the girl who had drawn the attention of both the Alliance's old observers and her own medical instincts stayed with her as they returned toward the Gu estate.
