By the time they arrived at the Crown Prince's sleeping quarters, Shen Chuwei, under Liu Xi's guidance, boarded a horse carriage.
She lifted the carriage curtain and saw Xiao Jinyan sitting inside the carriage, clad in moon-white clothes. Under the faint candlelight, she could clearly see his narrow, phoenix-like eyes looking right at her.
Xiao Jinyan looked at Shen Chuwei's attire, which was no different from when they last went hunting during the autumn imperial exam, except for a face covering on her cheeks, which didn't seem out of place at all.
"Your Highness," Shen Chuwei let down the carriage curtain and sat at a position neither too close nor too far from Xiao Jinyan.
Once she was seated, she raised her little face and asked with curiosity, "Your Highness, where are we going?"
Xiao Jinyan lifted his teacup and took a sip, "Out of the palace."
