After spending so much time with Prince Zhao, Hua Manman could sense he was hiding many secrets.
From what she knew of him, he was deeply distrustful of everyone and everything. He would never willingly share his secrets with anyone.
She had only asked out of pure curiosity—it was a slip of the tongue.
She never actually expected to get the truth out of Prince Zhao.
Yet Prince Zhao had seriously promised her that one day, he would tell her all his secrets.
This gave Hua Manman a strange feeling.
She couldn't quite put her finger on what it was.
As she met Prince Zhao's narrow, ink-black eyes, Hua Manman's mind seemed to go blank.
She nodded dumbly.
"Oh. Okay."
Li Ji got the response he wanted, and a smile finally returned to his face.
A subtle light shone in the depths of his dark eyes.
Jinxiu pushed the door open and came in, followed by a train of young maids.
They deftly helped Prince Zhao and Lady Hua wash up and change their clothes.
