"They're awake, they're both awake," the palace maid joyfully broke the awkward silence with her report, prompting Lady and Fang Pin to leap up and rush into the inner chamber urgently. At this moment, no one seemed to care about their impoliteness.
Fortunately, both Princes were without serious harm; they were only feeling languid due to the fright from falling into the water. Ji Fei comforted them for a while and rewarded them with some items before he left.
Seeing that Ji Fei had no intention of speaking to her, Qiao Qingyue became anxious. How could he do this? In the past, even if he did not visit her palace, he would send messages to inform her of his arrangements, but now they hadn't seen each other for several days. Could it be that his feelings had really changed?
Qiao Qingyue was unwilling to see her years of effort turn into a vain dream and, ignoring the odd looks of others, she chased after the carriages of Ji Fei and Ye Qiu.
