Bab 223: Loved by you

"Brother, I recalled something. I will see you later in the Palace," Lei Wanxi said and ran away from there. Nianzu turned back to see Lee Wanxi who soon vanished from his sight. He then turned to look at Chuntao who was standing in front of him.

"Your highness, have you had some work in the village again?" Chuntao asked.

"No. I was here with a young boy," Nianzu replied. "Shall we go back to the Palace or do you want to spend some more time here?" Nianzu queried.

"We shall go back," Chuntao replied.

"I am waiting for you outside the house. You can lock the doors," asserted Nianzu and walked out. Chuntao quickly locked the doors and came out of the main wooden gate. She locked it too and put the key in the pocket of her dress. "Your highness, let's go," Chuntao said softly. 

There was complete silence between the two as they were walking. Nianzu finally broke the silence and asked Chuntao, "Miss, why were you crying earlier? Is everything alright?"
