After Qianru had fallen asleep and her breath started to become even, slowly Xiao Jun removed his hand from her and pried open Qianru's slender fingers that clutched on to his front robe. Even in her sleep she could be so clingy.
But Xiao Jun really didn't mind it at all, he got off from the bed and walked toward the door without sound.
Once the door of the room closed, a guard approached him immediately. "How is the situation outside?" He asked before the guard finished his ceremony.
"We have been surrounded." The guard hastily answered.
For now, like what Mo Qin Yi had ordered earlier, they were surrounded by imperial guards and couldn't find a way to escape, if the crown prince really comeback with the imperial edict and searched the entire courtyard, Mo Xuan Fei and Lin Xinyang wouldn't be able to hide any longer nor they could run away from the siege.
