She realized she hadn't seen Shengxue in a while and found herself quite missing it.

Shengxue came up to Baili Xia, rubbing against her affectionately, an indescribable intimacy between them.
Baili Xia stroked Shengxue's mane and patted its back.
"Shengxue, you seem to have grown taller."
As if understanding the praise from its owner, Shengxue lifted its head high, desperately stretching, as if to show Baili Xia that it had indeed grown considerably.
Baili Xia chuckled, mounted the saddle, tightened the reins in her hand, nudged the horse's flanks, and galloped towards the back mountain.
