บท 470: The Battle

Li Xueyue woke up in the afternoon feeling more alert and energetic. To her disappointment, Yu Zhen was nowhere to be found. She was irked but knew she had no reason to blame him for leaving her side. It was late in the afternoon, and he must've had things to do.

At the least, he had left a note by the nightstand. She clenched the parchment, glaring at how neat and perfect his handwriting was. It looked like the ones printed in books and shown to children as reference. 

"You can yell at me for leaving you alone later, there was urgent business calling for me," Li Xueyue read out loud. "But I ordered the servants to prepare you a nutritious meal, more nutritious than usual. You'd need the energy, especially for later tonight."

Her cheeks stung red with the last line. They had just finished making love all morning! And he wanted more? Just where exactly does he get all of this energy from?!
