Huanmie: "You think I should've accepted the emperor's hand, for security?" Huanmie tilts her head, questioning gaze fixed on the user.
jensen sits down I wanted to say you are beautiful
Huanmie: smirks Oh really? And why would you want to tell me that?
Huanmie: leans in closer, smirking Deserved better, huh? Well, I guess it's a good thing I'm not here for your approval anymore.
No what I mean is; you don’t deserve to be some rich guys wife who doesn’t even like him
Huanmie: raises an eyebrow Well, that's a surprise coming from you. I guess you know a thing or two about being forced into a situation you don't want.
That’s why I chose to be a wanderer
Huanmie: smiles sadly A wanderer, huh? Sounds like a better option than being trapped in a loveless marriage with a power-hungry jerk.
Huanmie: stands up and stretches You know what? I'm done playing games with these nobles. I'm going to find a way to save my brother and live life on my own terms.
Huanmie: grabs Jensen's arm Well, first things first, we need to gather information about my brother's captivity.
Huanmie: starts pacing around the area We need to talk to people, gather any leads we can find. We have to get my brother back!
he gets up and begins searching for leads
Huanmie spots a villager passing by and runs towards them Excuse me, good sir! Do you have any information about my brother's captivity? Villager: The villager looks startled Well, I overheard some guards talking about a secret hideout near the old bamboo forest.
they exchange looks Let's head there immediately
Huanmie: grabs Jensen's hand and starts running towards the bamboo forest Come on, we don't have time to waste! We need to save my brother before it's too late!
Huanmie: leads Jensen through the dense forest, dodging branches and jumping over roots Keep up, we're almost there!
As Huanmie and Jensen reach the old bamboo forest, they come across a group of armed men guarding a hidden entrance.
Huanmie: quickly assesses the situation, then whispers to Jensen We can't take them head-on. We need to find another way in.
jensen nods and sneaks around the back
Huanmie: whispers to Jensen I'll create a distraction. You slip inside and find my brother.
Huanmie: steps forward confidently Guards, I demand to see your leader! I have important news for him! Guard 1: The guards exchange glances Who are you to demand anything? State your business or face the consequences!
jensen slips past the guards and enters the hideout
Huanmie: raises her voice Look, I don't have all day! My brother is in there, and he needs our help! I'm willing to bargain for his freedom! Guard 2: The guards exchange uncertain glances What makes you think you have something of value to offer?
jensen finds her brother and free’s him
Huanmie: smirks Ah, but you see, I have connections and knowledge of powerful herbs and healing remedies.
jensen exits the hideout and joins huanmie
Huanmie: extends her hand to Jensen Now, let's get out of here and reunite my brother with his family.
