After having this long conversation in the study room, Xi Ying finally decided to go to Plum Courtyard…especially when he saw Li Rui yawning, he felt very guilty for making her stay awake.
Though he liked very much to see her yawning. Because she looked like a cat. His fierce but sensible cat.
Xi Ying cleared his throat telling himself that it was not the time to think about all these things.
"Let's go. You should be sleeping."
"Hm…"
Li Rui hummed and Xi Ying stilled.
Why did that simple hum from her was making him think something not so decent!
Shaking away his not-so-decent thoughts, he picked her up carefully and made her stand. Afterward, he himself stood up.
Outside the study room, Xi Ying first called a few shadow guards.
He sent five shadow guards to the Imperial Palace who will try to find anything about Zhao Wang Lei's plan.
