Early the next morning, outside the guest room where Jun Zhantian was staying.
Qiu Qingxia wore a fitted short top that showed off her slender waist, paired with a white knee-length skirt. Silk leggings completely covered her legs above her tall boots. With her hair gathered into a bun secured by a jade pin and a longsword held tightly in her hand, she looked playful without losing her dashing, heroic air.
Yesterday, Jun Wuhui had asked Jun Zhantian to accompany her on today's training excursion, giving Qiu Qingxia the peculiar satisfaction of having earned her father-in-law's approval. She had been so excited that she hadn't slept a wink, and had summoned the servants before dawn to dress her with painstaking care.
Qiu Qingxia was thoroughly pleased with this outfit, brimming with the spirit of a wandering martial heroine. Jun Zhantian spent years traveling and training outside and disliked demure-looking women, so surely this outfit would make his eyes light up?
Qiu Qingxia imagined Jun Zhantian gently taking her little hand and leading her off to brave the ends of the world together. Sweetness and a blush involuntarily crept across her small face.
But all of that was merely her fantasy. Jun Zhantian pushed open the door, glanced at Qiu Qingxia, and said indifferently, "Let's go."
"Huh?"
Pulled back to reality from her daydream, Qiu Qingxia watched Jun Zhantian head outside without waiting for her, and her delicate brows knitted together.
She had spent a full four hours preparing, comparing over a hundred outfits before finally settling on this one to accompany Jun Zhantian. And all she got in return was two words?
Young Master Jun must still be bleary-eyed from sleep and hasn't gotten a proper look at my outfit!
Unwilling to accept this, Qiu Qingxia hurried after Jun Zhantian
