That evening Zhou Sheng found the monarch sitting on a bench near a koi fish pond and feeding the fishes.
Zhou Sheng watched in rising trepidation as Princess hadn't even talked to him since the time he had played the song.
He had expected her to be angry at him but he hadn't even thought that she would ignore him so completely.
If she had shouted or questioned him, he could have tried to explain and talk with her but this strained silence was stretching his nerves taut.
He had been certain that he could coax her and help her at least try to forget the events of the past.
He could extrapolate that she hadn't even cried once for the man she had loved and it was clearly taking a toll on her.
Sadly, he had grossly miscalculated. He wondered how things had gone so wrong so fast.
This was the first time since he had known her in either of their lifetimes, that she was ignoring him so blatantly.
