章 1720: Little By Little

Jing Xi walked towards the gate with the bags of new clothes in both of her hands. Just before she could enter the palace grounds, a group of cars approached from behind her.

She heard the engines and turned around to realize they were the king and his guards' cars, and she quickly moved away to let them pass.

Huo Yunshen was sitting casually in the car when she noticed Jin Xiaoxi standing outside. Without thinking, he asked his driver to stop.

He then rolled down the window and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Shocked by the king's voice, Jing Xi turned around and saw that Huo Yunshen was looking in her direction. She turned left and right to make sure that the king was actually addressing her.

"I'm talking to you!" Huo Yunshen scolded.

Before Jing Xi could even reply, Huo Yunshen had opened the door and gotten out of the car.

"My liege… Why… why are you here?" Jing Xi asked.
