Lu Tong lowered his head, no longer paying attention to the noise outside, focusing only on the task at hand.
At the doorway, Meng Xiyang looked toward the person standing in front of the couch, her complexion barely concealing her shock.
How could Pei Yunmeng have suddenly appeared here?
The Emperor had bestowed a feast at Minglin Garden today, and Pei Yunmeng went to the palace with Prince Wen. The banquet wouldn't end until the evening. Even if Pei Yunmeng's men had secretly sent a message, it would take time for Pei Yunmeng to receive the news and hurry over. What about Prince Wen? Why wasn't he here?
As though realizing something, Meng Xiyang's beautiful face twisted slightly in fear.
Pei Yunmeng was here for her sister. Without Prince Wen present, who in the Wangfu could possibly protect her now?
Meng Xiyang couldn't help but take a step back.
She was afraid of Pei Yunmeng.
