章節 478: Chapter 472_1

In the evening, Lin Yue stayed up late to finish an embroidery of hibiscus and peonies, and had just gone to sleep when she suddenly heard a disturbance outside. Ever since Zhao Erhu had left home, Lin Yue didn't know if it was due to a lack of security or what, but she could never fall into a deep sleep. Any minor noise would startle her awake, let alone such a commotion outside. Lin Yue practically jerked out of bed at once, and the maid Xixi, who was attending to her needs, also woke up upon hearing the noise.

"Xixi, what's happening outside?" Lin Yue asked, but then felt it might have been redundant; Xixi had heard the noise at the same time as her, and how could she possibly know what it was. Having asked, Lin Yue then dressed herself, and Xixi followed her out to the outer courtyard. They hadn't even left their own yard when a figure dashed over quickly and embraced Lin Yue in a full hug.
