Lei Xing was glad when the banquet finally ended and absentmindedly made her way back to her palace, still brooding over the events of the evening and the annoyance of having to babysit some princess added onto her plate. No matter how she thought about it she could not come up with an explanation for why the princess wanted her. There was also Tung Mei's behavior and the bracelet's ridiculous demands further irritating her.
She lightly sighed and glanced around only to find the Emperor walking beside her. She had been so wrapped up in her troubles that she had not noticed that he continued following her after they all went their separate ways.
Lei Xing sighed, she was not in the mood to deal with him. Not to mention that she could see from his frowning expression that he was not in a happy mood either. When they arrived at her palace, she stopped at the entrance to attempt to talk him into leaving, but he just went inside ahead of her.
Fun fact: The title is the actual translation for "NaLan"...Pure coincidence! I had no clue what it meant when I chose it (Wasn't even sure it was Chinese LOL). I wanted to title this chapter on something to do with "coming to terms", couldn't find a word I liked and so thought to use her name and googled it and here we are LOL...It aligns perfectly with her character here, A WILD ORCHID TRYING TO ACCEPT AND FIND A WAY TO THRIVE IN A NEW ENVIRONMENT...(ღ˘⌣˘ღ)(ღ˘⌣˘ღ)(ღ˘⌣˘ღ)
