After the sparring session, Shen Shuang's expression became very complicated. She looked lost and a little sorrowful, and though she moved her lips, she couldn't seem to find the words to say.

Finally, she picked up her red tassel spear and walked away desolately.

Xiao Jin had thought that Shen Shuang wouldn't come back again, but she was surprised to find that the other woman was very persistent.

Shen Shuang kept coming back day after day, determined to fight with Chu Shao.

Each time they sparred, they chose a secluded place, but the fights were intense and dazzling to watch.

Xiao Jin watched from her wheelchair, silently studying the moves while keeping a close eye on Chu Shao's actions.

She was afraid that if Chu Shao got too carried away or made a mistake, she might accidentally hurt or kill Shen Shuang.

However, it was clear that Chu Shao was not really fighting with Shen Shuang seriously.

Each time they fought, she would end the fight quickly, often not even bothering to use all of her moves. It seemed like they were stuck in an endless cycle.

Chu Shao deftly deflected Shen Shuang's spear again and again, and her smile had become so calm that it was almost terrifying.

Shen Shuang looked up at her with a worshipful expression, full of shyness and admiration, and said, "Sister Chu, your swordsmanship is amazing. I wonder who your teacher was. I'm so curious. I must go and ask you for guidance another day."

Xiao Jin fell silent. She couldn't help but think that Shen Shuang was getting too familiar with Chu Shao, even calling her "sister". From her perspective, Chu Shao seemed to be standing calmly in the courtyard, but in reality, she was lost in thought, probably not even hearing what Shen Shuang was saying.

Chu Shao's smile didn't even twitch, and she looked as though she was about to dismiss Shen Shuang.

But then she seemed to snap back to reality, and asked Shen Shuang with a smile, "If I told you something, would you stop coming tomorrow?"

"Sister Chu, what do you mean?" Shen Shuang widened her eyes, apparently surprised by Chu Shao's question.

In reality, Chu Shao was in a difficult position. She had to restrain herself every day, controlling her urge to kill and making sure not to accidentally hurt or kill Shen Shuang. It was a difficult task that required a lot of effort.

In the past, Chu Shao had not thought much about killing someone who had annoyed her. But now she was in a difficult situation, where she had to control her temper and find other ways to deal with Shen Shuang's persistence.

This means she cannot easily offend Shen Shangshu's daughter, because if Shen Shuang is alive, it is a problem, but if she is dead, it will be an even bigger problem.

In other words, if this trouble were to die, it could threaten Xiao Jin's survival.

However, even if Shen Shuang were to threaten Xiao Jin's survival, it has nothing to do with Chu Shao.

In fact, she used to think that if Xiao Jin died, she would be more obedient and let her manipulate her as she pleased.

But now she realizes that she seems to prefer the lively and obviously disobedient Xiao Jin. In other words, she hopes that Xiao Jin will stay alive.

Before everything ends, Chu Shao hopes that Xiao Jin will be safe and sound.

When the time comes to fulfill her promises, she will take everything Xiao Jin promised her very gently and lovingly.
