Chapter 416: He Cheated?
Xing woke up late afternoon as she felt a gentle hand caressing her forehead. His other hand was placed over her hand over the blanket warming her up. He always had the perfect warmth for her.
" I’ve prepared a meal for you, just like you asked", Chenglei kissed her forehead.
"Hmm", she turned to face him and his handsome face was filled with gentleness just like the rays of the winter sun that entered their room.
As if everything he did yesterday wasn’t enough, he had to prepare a meal too? Xing was touched in her heart.
Then she saw the swing hanging inside their room and her eyes widened with surprise.
"Isn’t that the swing in the Light Wind Courtyard?", she asked sitting up.
"Mmm", he leaned in her shoulder wrapping his arms around her waist. "Don’t you like it? So I brought it here and until I find something better than this, you can have it", he added.
He had mixed emotions about the swing but still brought it home.
His brother told him it was not the property of the Imperial Palace and it was a gift to her and so he can take it back.
His explanation had the answer but Chenglei stressed on the ’gift’ part rather than the ’take it back’ part.
He didn’t realise ’take it back ’ means the Emperor implied that he was the one gifted it to her which is the truth.
All his thoughts were, ’Could this be gifted by the other man she is waiting for?’
