Bab 156: Lack Discipline

By the time Li Xueyue finished riding, the sun was setting on the horizon. After handing Heiyue off to the stable boy, she instantly went back to her bedroom, took out the diary, and headed in the direction of Li Chenyang's room. Upon seeing it was empty, she decided to head to the library where he was usually found.

"There you are," she said after pushing the door open. Sure enough, nestled comfortably on the window seat was Li Chenyang engrossed in a book. 

"Were you out with Heiyue?"

"Mmhm." Li Xueyue nodded. "I have something to show you, but first, you have to promise that you won't get mad at me."

Li Chenyang quirked a brow. He slipped a bookmark into the page he was reading and closed the book. 

"I don't make false promises." His eyes fell on the object she hugged in her arms. "What's that?"

"A book."

"Why so secretive?" He mused, "Unless…"

"Unless what?" she curiously asked, tilting her head at his pointed look.
