Xiana woke up early in the morning and the first thing she checked on was Licheng. She slid the door open slightly and found Licheng was still present there.
However, he was in a deep slumber. His head rested against the frame of the paper-bamboo door. His face was expressionless and appeared calm. She admired him for a few seconds while wondering if he was truly the Crown Prince.
'Licheng was not supposed to sleep here. After he will recall the last meeting of us in the past, he may start hating me. He will no longer want me to be around him, and may let me die in the demon's hand,' Xiana thought while looking at Licheng's face.
All these thoughts saddened Xiana. So, she closed the doors and he went back to bed. She waited for Licheng to wake up and leave for his manor.
