"Your Highness Prince Wu, His majesty demands your and Lady Bai's presence in the palace."
Hearing that, Bai Shuyin stood up abruptly, causing her vision to blacken for a second. She staggered backwards and fortunately, Wu Jiangfeng had stretched his arms out and caught her. When his palm met her soft, warm skin, he was painfully reminded of how exposed the both of them were. He was suddenly aware of the way the calluses on his fingers dragged over the lean muscle. His thumb resting over her hips.
For what it was worth, Bai Shuyin seemed oblivious to Wu Jiangfeng's suffering. Her hand grasped his wrist for support. "Thanks," She mumbled out, shaking her head to clear the black spots that danced in her eyeballs. She blinked a couple of times until she had them cleared before turning to Wu Jiangfeng. "Wait a second, how did His Majesty know I am here already?"
