Lin Xingyan couldn"t hold back the tears that threatening to fall from her eyes as sobbed hardly, she reached out her arms and hugged Mo Xuan Fei"s neck tightly. She cried hard on the crook of his neck and wetted his collar.Mo Xuan Fei hugged her back, caressing her back in soothing movement, her hair was as smooth as he remembered they were.
He loved this woman deeply and wanted her to be safe. He could lose everything but not her.
"Please hold on a little bit longer…" Mo Xuan Fei whispered to her ears. "I will find a way to keep us safe." He promised her.
Lin Xingyan nodded her head. She would do whatever this man asked her to do, if he wanted her to wait, then she would wait as long as its take. She had nothing to lose now.
"I will get you out from here." There was a determination in his voice as he promised to himself. He would use his last drop of blood to make sure her safety if that was what had to be done.
"Alright…" Lin Xingyan replied weakly after her cry had subsided. "But, you can"t harm yourself, you need to be safe as well." She tugged at Mo Xuan Fei"s front robe, urged him to promise that they would live together.
Death was more beautiful if she had lost Mo Xuan Fei as well.
Even though she was the first princess from Zodasian Kingdom, but she had been married off to the other country, thus she belonged to the country of her husband.
No matter what she had been through here, Lin Xingyan couldn"t send a word to her family, not to mention her sin of illicit relationship with the man, which should be her stepson.
It was a disgrace for her family and they wouldn"t stand on her side, if anything they would execute her because of shame. Moreover, she wasn"t her parent"s favorite daughter.
That was why, though his father, the Emperor of Zodasian Kingdom was here, she couldn"t meet him, nor he wanted to see her.
It was an ironic of the reality of her life.
It was only this man that she had, it was only him who loved her unconditionally.
"I will be safe for you." Mo Xuan Fei whispered to her ears. Something erupted from his chest and it was an anxiety.
At this time, he would gamble his life and chose his side, he hoped he chose the right side that would be able to save his woman.
"Thank you…" Lin Xingyan released her hand that hugged Mo Xuan Fei"s neck as she wiped away her tears. "Thank you for stay with me… thank you for loving me and doesn"t feel disgust with my appearance…"
Mo Xuan Fei leaned forward and sealed her lips with his, that action shut her up immediately. "Don"t ever say something like that." He said seriously.
Maybe Lin Xingyan was his love at first sight or maybe she was his true love, but whatever it was… he only sure about one thing.
He didn"t want to lose her.
"Where they locked you?" Mo Xuan Fei asked, he leaned his back against a tree and secured his cloak around Lin Xingyan"s body. She was thinner than the last time he was with her. He could literally feel her protruding bones.
"I think it was the west palace, because I can see the palace library from there." Lin Xingyan recalled the small room that she had occupied for this past days. "It is small room with small window, but I can see the library building clearly from there."
Mo Xuan Fei took a note on this information. "After that, what else that you can see from your room?" He wanted to know the place where she was holding as custody.
"The sun is rise right in front of my window." It"s mean her room was facing west. "The guards around me are always changed their shift after lunch and dinner." So, there were two shifts for a day.
"Do you remember something else?" Mo Xuan Fei persuaded her.
"They send me three maidservants, the two of them I didn"t know, but one person was someone from physician courtyard. She always checks on me and I had ever met her before, but seemingly she didn"t know about it."
"A woman doctor from Imperial physician?" Mo Qian Yuan started to list a woman doctor that he knew.
A doctor was usually a job that was filled with man, however recently there was some woman interested to learn about medicine, hence these past few years there were a few women have a seat in the Imperial physician.
"Do you know her name?" Mo Xuan Fei asked hopefully.
But, Lin Xingyan shook her head. "The first time I saw her was the moment I stepped inside the Rockstone palace, so I am not able to remember her name. She was also very careful to not mention her name in front of me."
"Hmm…" Mo Xuan Fei hummed. "It"s alright." A woman physician in the palace… it was an easy task to find out who it was, even without knowing her name.
They continued talking about trivial thing and how they would spend their life if it was only the two of them, away from this palace.
They only talked about beautiful thing because their life had filled with miserable. They needed a ray of light to shine their days ahead.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
Time flew by just like that and in a blink of an eyes, the promised one hour had pa.s.sed.
The eunuch and the two burly men comeback to collect Lin Xingyan, locked her up again in her room.
Mo Xuan Fei"s eyes darkened when they took Lin Xingyan from him, but he couldn"t lost his temper now as he had something big form in his head.
He needed to be patient and wait for the right time.
"Prince Mo Xuan Fei, the Emperor and Prince Xiao Jun are waiting for you in his study room." The eunuch informed him before he left.
