Tianshi Xue wanted to press on his heels so Prince Qui would have to stop steering her in the hall, but she knew that she should not make a commotion or at least be suspicious.
Against her will, she plastered a smile on her face and nodded at the faces that she recognized. People had turned to look at them as they had entered, walking on the red carpet. It did not help that as soon as they crossed the threshold, someone announced to the whole room. "Prince Yang Qui and Princess Lin Yingyue are now entering the hall."
She had clutched on Prince Qui's arm for show and now she clutched it harder. "It would really help if you would slow down a little," she said through smiling lips.
"Well, if you want to stay in this hell longer then be my guest." He made a move to let her go but she dug her fingers on his arm.
"Don't you even dare leave me here."
