Lord Jing softened a little and said, "Luckily, I didn't tell him about our secret. We've only been seeing each other a little. It's not a big deal."
Night Owl stared at him. "Are you sure?"
Lord Jing said, "My lord, His Majesty has allowed you to have an independent residence because he trusts you. Don't panic."
Night Owl calmed down and nodded. "That's right."
Lord Jing changed the subject. "By the way, what's that amazing skill you talked about? Have you succeeded?"
Night Owl gloated at the mention of that. "Who do you think I am? How can I fail?"
Lord Jing said, "So, it's…"
Night Owl didn't dare to say anything. It was an indescribable pain, but the advancement had indeed made him much more confident.
Night Owl said, "Don't ask. By the way, how's the war going?"
Lord Jing shook his head and told him about Patriarch Huyan's participation in the battle.
