The Clarity Between Indebtedness and Enmity

What if Madam Yu doesn't die at Lotus Pier, and is rescued and brought to Wen Qing as well?

Perhaps it’s just the way Wen Qing’s dark, intelligent eyes stay fixed on Ziyuan even while Ziyuan shouts; perhaps it’s the way Wen Qing holds herself, head held high and shoulders squared against the world, despite having soft hands that have never borne sword calluses; perhaps it’s simply the way she has surprised Ziyuan. Or perhaps Ziyuan has spent too long in idle, enforced meditation in this quiet hut, and it’s stirring up some sort of foolish nostalgia for her past.

Whatever it is, Ziyuan doesn’t like it.
