After watching Xia Chunyu walk far away, Ye Jiayao also turns and walks towards the imperial kitchen. Just as she stepped out of the corner gate, she almost collided with a little eunuch who was rushing frantically. Ye Jiayao immediately gave way. That eunuch kept his head low and grazed past her. Ye Jiayao thought that this was just a very ordinary incident and did not even think much of it until she felt a sudden, sharp pain. The only thing that flashed past her mind before she lost consciousness is… oh no.
Lu Yiming has been waiting impatiently for Ye Jiayao. It has been almost an hour past the agreed meeting time and Lu Yiming dared not to cause any delay, instructing the helpers to make preparations while he informed the managing eunuch of the imperial kitchen.
