Long Yang was unable to sleep well that night.
His mind was filled with images of Lu Liangwei crying.
He tossed about in bed and slept fitfully.
The next day, Long Yang was in terrible spirits. As a result, his temper worsened, and everyone around him, from the officials of the imperial court to the servants by his side, tiptoed on eggshells around him. They were terrified of incurring his wrath and bringing trouble upon themselves.
Long Yang did not go looking for Lu Liangwei the entire day and forced himself not to think about her.
That was because the image of her tearful face appeared every time he thought of her, which gave him a pang of pain and only confused him further.
Zhao Qian and Chu Qi also avoided him and stayed far away.
They were not willing to become their master's punching bag.
Sigh. The master who had forgotten about the Empress was truly temperamental. He was quite difficult to serve.
