Liqiu blindly walked down the hallway as she tried to make sense of what she had overheard from the Duke and his cohorts.
She had completely missed Manlin's warnings and waKed head first into a broad back. "Ah," she hissed taking a step back and holding her forehead.
Her eyebrows twitches as met the Crown Prince's sharp gaze. She quickly bowed, "My apologies, your royal highness".
She cussed herself in her mind, for being so attentive to her environment. The Crown Prince was the last person she ever wanted to run into.
She had steered clear of him ever since she discovered that he had attempted to poison her. Luckily he had moved on to other things.
Xiang Chao turned around and geared down at the girl in front of him. His eyes narrowed as his gaze fell on her attire, he sneered and walked passed her.
