After a few minutes, they reached the entrance to his room.
The wooden door stood before them, and Zhao Tian let go of her hand to push it open.
The door creaked slightly as it swung inward, revealing the modestly furnished interior of his private quarters.
"Here we are," he said, stepping aside to let her in first.
Li Xueyan hesitated for a second, taking a deep breath before stepping into the room.
The scent of sandalwood and incense filled the air, and she glanced around, taking in the space.
Once inside, Zhao Tian closed the door behind them and turned to face her.
The room was dimly lit by a single lantern hanging near the bed, casting soft shadows across the walls.
Li Xueyan stood in the middle of the room, her hands clasped together nervously, but there was a light smile on her lips.
