She didn't know how long she was sitting at the pavilion, but the sun was already setting. Against the background of the setting sun Ruhae walked up to her.
Her heart began to beat fast suddenly.
"I've just heard from Concubine Sassi that you are here."
"Please don't come near me," she murmured to herself.
"What business brought you to the East Palace? I wonder if you…"
"Don't approach me!" she again murmured to herself.
"Did you come here to see the Crown Princess?"
Ruhae stood before Yomin as she smiled a sad smile.
It was the first time Kyomin had seen him in a while, and Ruhae cried.
"Why are you crying?"
"Because I am afraid she might be hurt."
Yomin felt as if he put a dagger in her heart because she instantly knew who he meant by 'she.'
Yomin didn't want to see his face at the moment. The thinking that she was not in genuine love with him made her shiver. Her heart pounded. And she also shed tears.
