"Princess Xiana, are you alright?" Hu Fei asked, concern evident on his face.
Xiana gazed at Licheng, waiting for him to turn and face her. When he did, she finally blinked and saw a troubled expression on his face. Something seemed off, and she couldn't quite get it.
"Is the Crown Prince alright?" Wu Jingyun queried.
They both did not respond and their eyes locked in an intense eyelock. Xiana had expected Licheng to speak up and when he did not, she opened her mouth.
"I did not give him the ring. He kept insisting on me to hand it over to him. I found out he is not you," Xiana explained, thus breaking the silence between them.
Hu Fei and Wu Jingyun exchanged puzzled glances at each other. They wondered about what ring Xiana was talking about. They both lacked the details.
