While Su Jiu made wild guesses, she heard a man and a woman conversing opposite the rockery.
"I heard some palace attendants mention that my father, His Majesty, stayed over at your palace last night?" The man's hand wandered into the woman's clothes, his fastidious voice carrying a hint of jealousy.
The woman squinted her eyes and moaned squeamishly. She grinned charmingly and teased, "No wonder you dragged me here the moment you arrived. You're jealous!"
The man tugged the woman's collar and pulled it down, leaving a series of marks on the snow-white skin of her chest. "Indeed, this prince wishes he can just hide you away so that no other man can see you!"
The woman grabbed the man's shoulders and arched her head back. She smiled coyly. "You only know how to be jealous of me. You play around with those concubines back in your manor, but why do you still find faults in me?"
