Chapter 330: Eating With Other People

When the Emperor and the Empress finally left, Yu Zhen guided Li Xueyue back to her estate. They walked in comfortable silence, hand in hand. 

"You didn't let out a sigh of relief," he pointed out.

Li Xueyue tilted her head. She turned to look at him and shielded her eyes. The sun shone directly upon him. The light cascaded upon him, bright and blinding, until everyone was forced to look away. 

Li Xueyue knew she would forever be awestruck of him. His prominent features were hard to ignore. He was truly a masterpiece.

"I wasn't anxious the entire time, so there was nothing to be relieved about…" Li Xueyue trailed off when he began to caress the side of her face.

She blinked in confusion. For a split second there, she thought he was mesmerized by something. But she brushed it off. It must've been a trick of the light.

"You look lovely, Sunshine."

Li Xueyue's head snapped up at his words. She rarely heard compliments like this.
