At this moment, Su Wan cradled the pipa, gently plucking and strumming, playing a melody.
The sound of the instrument was melodious and lingering, accompanied by an invisible charm that rippled with the sound waves, attempting to soften Lu Xuan's mind and amplify his inner desires.
She occasionally glanced at Lu Xuan, her gaze enticing and seductive.
Hu Weibang, seeing the atmosphere was ripe, raised his wine glass again, his smile growing increasingly genuine.
"...Therefore, for the welfare of our two armies' soldiers, for the peace of Qingzhou's Northern Territory."
"I hope Commander Lu can give me, Hu, a clear answer today."
"Alright," Lu Xuan put down the wine glass, his voice echoing in the elegant room.
"However, I want Sanshui County." He looked at Hu Weibang, as if stating a fact, "Commander Hu, this small request, surely you won't refuse me, will you?"
As soon as these words were spoken, all sounds in the room ceased abruptly, plunging into a dead silence.
