Chapter Five
Sun Quan looked around his large room and fidgeted in his seat he wondered if this meeting with Lu Xun was ever going to end. He knew he should have been paying more attention but he just didn't feel up to it, sometimes he hated that the burden of uniting the land had fallen upon his shoulders.
Lu Xun looked over at Sun Quan and frowned slightly was he that boring he wondered to himself. He placed his feather pen down on the table crossing his legs leaning back into his chair and just watched him for a moment.
Sun Quan felt someone looking at him it almost felt like daggers he looked at Lu Xun who was sporting an intense expression with his arms tightly folded. Sun Quan laughed nervously
"Sorry Lu Xun, can was continue this meeting later I'm not feeling up to it right now." Lu Xun sighed and gathered his things together saying as you wish. He quickly left the room and Sun Quan was a lone again.
Sun Quan let out a deep sigh reaching over to the delicate china cup, he flicked through the documents Lu Xun had left him with sipping his tea. Nothing seemed to be going in his mind was so preoccupied.
He walked back over to the window, somehow seeing such a beautiful day raised his sprits and eased his soul somewhat. He smiled to himself remembering again the first time he saw Gan Ning he had fallen in love with him the first time their eyes had met. Who wouldn't fall in love with such a man? He wondered
Gan Ning seemed like a laid back fool who only cared for adventure and fighting but under that outer shell was a very intense man with the soul of a ferocious beast, Sun Quan always wondered what it would be like to see Gan Ning's inner self. The only time it seemed to come out was when he was fighting, he seemed playful before and after bouts but when he was actually fighting something seemed to change in him.
Lost in thought Sun Quan was completely unaware of Gan Ning who was scaling the tree just outside the window he was looking out of.
