"Zhongnan Li, daydreaming in bed?" The blonde girl suddenly faltered, then bit her lip and pleaded, "Peacock Empress, I miss my man from Country Hua, please take me to see him.
I'm begging you, I really miss him, miss him so much!"
Wenjing flatly said, "No!"
But then, softening her tone, she explained, "Julia, it's not that I don't want you to see him, but your mother doesn't like it. If you act willfully and insist on seeing him, it will definitely enrage her.
And I can't always be around to protect him; a slight mishap, and your mother would kill him!
Do you understand?"
"Aunt Peacock, I understand," Julia nodded and said, "I know you brought me here claiming you were lonely and wanted my company.
Actually, you're worried my mother won't keep her word and will kill Li Zhongnan, so you're using me as a hostage.
Right?"
