In the front hall, Qi Yu stood with her head bowed like a little student who had done something wrong, waiting for Li Mingjue's judgment.
Li Mingjue's well-defined fingers tapped lightly on the table, the rhythmic knocking sound bit by bit entered Qi Yu's heart.
Her whole heart was gripped with fear.
"What if I said I was just fooling around with you all, would you believe me?" Qi Yu mustered her courage to meet his indifferent gaze, squeezing an awkward smile onto her face.
Li Mingjue had long sent all the servants away, waiting to see how she would explain herself.
A grown person had actually disappeared within the Prince Residence, only to appear again as if nothing had happened.
If it weren't for the fact that every Hidden Guard in the Prince Residence was personally trained by him, he might have believed it somewhat.
"Why would I not believe?" Li Mingjue scoffed lightly, his gaze so cold it could freeze someone.
