She yawned and muttered, "What could possibly make Fourth Master so disregard even his own rest?"
Traveling during the day is already exhausting, and for the past two nights, Fourth Master has been resting almost as soon as he gets back to the carriage. But today is strange.
Qiu Hu couldn't figure it out either. While swatting away mosquitoes with his hands, he said, "Perhaps it's because we'll be in Dezhou in a few days? Today's journey seems to be much faster than yesterday's."
Li Chenjiao used her fan to swat away the mosquitoes that clung to the carriage window in the light, and then she fell into deep thought: "We did walk much faster today... it felt like we were on a journey."
