Chapter 205: The Secret Trip
Xing tried to convince the Emperor but failed and he was too tired to argue with her and ended up sleeping in her couch and Mo Chen went out for hunting and Xing showed all her frustration with many words to Bai Li who just wanted to sleep.
Xing just missed Shengli a lot that night. If he were here, he’d never stop her from what she wants to do but will find a way for her to do what she wants safely.
My Prince! You really are the man for me and I miss you a lot!
So what if she cannot have permission to leave, she’ll escape here. Once she enters the mountains, who can stop her? She decided to take Bai Li with her in this adventure and he agreed too as he had promised to protect her.
Xing went to sleep peacefully with that thought in mind and she had peaceful dreams. Bai Li got her an incense with some soothing flower fragrances and that brought her the memory of the colourful garden Shengli brought her on a date one day in the capital city’s Flower Festival.
"You are prettier than any flower here", he whispered in her ears with his arms tightly wrapped around her waist and he gently kissed the back of her ear and the hot breath of his on her made her ears go red... And her throat dry...
A pretty common phrase any man would say but when she heard him say with that deep, sultry voice of his, she felt something in the bottom of her abdomen making her entire body go numb... Not in a frightening or bad way but that feeling was so sweet and pleasant as she wished for more.
I miss you... I miss your breath on me... And your gentle voice by my ears...
Night went and morning came and Xing got herself cleaned up when she received another letter from Seiren.
Seiren had contacts with Lee Daejung because of his Zhong name. Lee Daejung was pretty fond of his maternal grandfather General Song and he liked the Zhong family as they were part of the same family who got separated by the split of the Kingdoms.
Seiren had met Lee Daejung in one of his travels and they clicked with each others as good friends. Xing knew of it because Seiren had blabbered it to her in one of his drunken matches they used to have but she never thought it was because of his Zhong name at that time.
Things always work out for her sake anyways!
