Bab 133: Sleep Over

The night breeze entered the chamber through the window that was left wide open and swayed the curtains on its way before dispersing in the big chamber. The candles and lanterns were blown out a long time ago, but the silvery moonlight provided more than enough brightness inside the room.

Xiang Ling turned to her right and faced the window to look at the outside world, but even the beautiful moonlight was unable to calm her down. She had been tossing and turning for so long that she was getting tired. It was already two hours past midnight, and yet, she hadn't been able to fall asleep. The moment she closed her eyes, she kept recalling the entire incident that happened right before midnight. Xin Cheng's words kept repeating themselves in her mind.
