Chương 110: Behind the Scenes

"Lord Yue. Lord Yue?" 

Yan Zheyun woke up to a gentle shaking of his shoulders. He hummed sleepily and reached up to scrub a tired hand over his face before peering up blearily at whoever it was that disrupted his peaceful slumber. 

It turned out to be Deputy Eunuch Zheng, who gave him a respectful bow as he sat up and covered a yawn. 

"Zheng Gonggong, how long have I been asleep for?" Liu Yao's bedchambers was familiar to Yan Zheyun by now; a couple of months ago, he wouldn't have dreamt of becoming so well-acquainted with the ornate canopy and the lavish silk sheets, at least not without sex involved. But over the past few weeks, he'd shared the dragon bed so often that it had quickly become his favourite resting place. Nestled in Liu Yao's arms, it was easier to believe that their relationship would be able to have some of the normalcy he craved for.
