Knock Knock…
"Madam"
The knock on the door interrupted the ambiguous atmosphere inside the room.
Xi Ying closed his eyes in despair and sighed in defeat while Li Rui also came out of her trance. She gulped and adjusted herself a little in Xi Ying's lap.
However, a sharp inhale from Xi Ying's mouth made her halt amidst her action. Xi Ying's eyes were now more intense as he looked at his wife. But this time they had helplessness and frustration also.
Li Rui's cheeks went red as she understood the reason behind it.
"Sorry"
She whispered in a low voice.
"Madam."
It was Liu Lan on the door and Li Rui recognized her voice.
Xi Ying face didn't look good because of being interrupted and he asked coldly
"What is it?"
Outside the room, Liu Lan gulped nervously on hearing the cold voice but nonetheless answered respectfully.
"My Lord, Madam's younger brother from Li Manor had come to meet Madam."
