Mr. General's Personal Pets
Episode 5
Cheng Yi
(lowering his voice as they approach) he looks familiar.
Chen Feiyu
(glances at Xue Meng, indifferently)
Chen Feiyu
Do all wolves not look the same to you?
Xue Meng
(weakly, voice merely audible) Feiyu
Silence. The hall grows tense. Feiyu's expression remains unreadable but Cheng Yi's sharp gaze flicker towards him, waiting for a reaction. There is none.
Emperor Tian Zhihia
(from his throne)
Emperor Tian Zhihia
Ah, general Chen, you arrived just in time.
Emperor Zhou Qi
(leaning forward intrigued) then tell us, should we put him down.
Chen Feiyu
(tilting his head, voice laced in mock interest)
Chen Feiyu
Must I decide? I thought emperors enjoyed pretending their word was law.
Emperor Tian Zhihia
(amused) come now, Feiyu, you caught the beast you should have the honor of choosing his fate.
Chen Feiyu
(sighs dramatically) how generous. Truly, your majesties spoil me.
Chen Feiyu
(glances at Xue Meng unimpressed) do you have anything to say for yourself, wolf?
Xue Meng
(hoarse, measured) no
The court murmurs at the beast's silence. Yet Xue Meng's gaze does not waver from Feiyu, even as he remains on his knees.
