章 1378: The Reason For His Tenderness

However, remembering the commotion that happened last night, Bai He had a hunch about the cause of this.

The general must have gone overboard with her mistress and she was still lost in her reverie over the night's events.

After Lin Qingyuan was done dressing up, she headed to Madam Shen's courtyard.

Unexpectedly, she bumped into Long Xuan at the door.

Long Xuan had just returned from the imperial court and had not changed out of his official attire.

His dignified court robes made him look mature and cold, quite unlike his usual flirty and hooligan-like personality.

Lin Qingyuan quietly smirked when their eyes met, then she averted her gaze.

She was still feeling annoyed.

While Lin Qingyuan was aching all over, Long Xuan had managed to get up early to attend the imperial court and was even looking quite energized right now. His face looked bright and refreshed, and there was no trace of fatigue.
