Jiang Ying Yue was pulled out of her dreamless sleep when she heard the commotion outside her courtyard.
As she slowly regained her senses and realized that she was sleeping in the warm embrace of Wu Xie, a small smile bloomed on her lips.
"You should leave now." She whispered next to his ear, making his eyes fluttered open as he gazed at her with his dreamy eyes that seemed way more warmer and approachable than ever before.
After a few seconds, he did nod his head in understanding as he too realized that her maids were going insane outside her courtyard because they couldn't enter due to the ward he had placed around the area.
She watched as his silhouette disappeared from her room, leaving her alone in her bedroom. As soon as he left, the ward also went down, making way for the Li sisters to finally enter the room.
