When Xiao Ying heard Yeluchun's voice, her body stiffened as if someone had pressed on her acupuncture point. Ah Lu ran to the bedside in surprise.
"Master, you're awake?"
Yelü Chun pushed Ah Lu away and looked at Xiao Ying's back. Tears flowed out of his eyes as he said to Xiao Ying in a trembling voice,
"Xiao Ying, I had a dream just now. I dreamt that I was terrible to you, I…I betrayed my oath. Xiao Ying, I was wrong. Can you forgive me?"
Xiao Ying's tears flowed down like a dam. She covered her face and ran out of the guest room. The overwhelming grievance made her unable to say words of forgiveness.
Yelü Chun let Ah Lu support him as he staggered behind Xiao Ying. His repeated calls made Xiao Ying want to escape as soon as possible.
Just as Xiao Ying was about to run faster, Ah Lu called out to her,
"Princess Consort, His Highness has fallen."
