After the Charismatic Strategist Ran Away

Shen Yuanqiao served as a strategist to Zong Changchuan for three years, but couldn't accept his ruthless ways. He left a letter and ran away.

Zong Changchuan stopped him with his men, his expression terrifying.

Shen Yuanqiao stabbed Zong Changchuan and walked away as he watched him with a shattered look in his eyes.

Two years later, the new lord Shen Yuanqiao had been assisting was surrounded in Yangcheng, with no water or food.

With nowhere else to turn, he had no choice but to go back and beg Zong Changchuan, who had unified the north.

"I never do good deeds." Zong Changchuan's expression was indifferent as he looked down at him.

In the dim candlelight, Shen Yuanqiao looked at him helplessly, awkward and embarrassed.

Zong Changchuan slowly wiped his hands, lowered his eyes to look at him, and said coolly, "So what are you going to offer to persuade me?"
