Li Xianyun averted her gaze from Yelu Yan's burning eyes and looked towards the pastries on the desk,
but she could still feel that Yelu Yan was staring at her with a smile playing on his lips.
When she returned to Khan Palace, she must tell him to restrain himself more in public.
Yaduo watched the couple's affectionate display and exchanged a knowing smile with her personal maid.
After Li Xianyun and Yelu Yan had finished their meal in Cirui Palace, they just stepped out of the palace gate when Yelu Yan picked her up horizontally in his arms.
The guards and attending palace attendants automatically distanced themselves from the couple.
The bright moon hung high in the sky, stars twinkled, and there was the occasional sound of the wind.
Lanterns were hung all around the palace; their amber glow cast the shadows of the two nestled together onto the ground.
Li Xianyun leaned her head on Yelu Yan's shoulder, looking at the surroundings, her heart as calm as still water.
