“Also, inform me when Liu Jin Yu gains consciousness,” Qiu Zedong ordered him.

Gao Bing bowed while the King left. Zhu Liling wasn’t ready to leave when Xiaoming told her that he would like to rest for a while.

“I will come in the evening, Crown Prince,” Zhu Liling said, and left the chamber while her servants followed her.

Lóng Wei left to see Li Hua, while the other princes and princesses left too. Gao Bing told Xiaoming that he would send an assistant for him within an hour.

“Yes, Eunuch Gao Bing. I will wait,” Xiaoming said, and thanked him. Once the Eunuch left too, Xiaoming went to see Liu Jin Yu in the chamber next to his.

He asked everyone to leave the chamber and closed the door from inside. Liu Jin Yu pushed away the blanket and sat up on the mattress.

“You should lie down,” Xiaoming suggested to her.

“Why did the Crown Prince ask me to act? When the physician touched my thigh, my eyes almost opened. Fortunately, no one saw me,” Liu Jin Yu said, taking a breath of relief. “I must go back. Master Wu must be looking for me,” she stood up when Xiaoming grasped her arm.

.....

“Stay here,” Xiaoming said, his gaze fixated on her. “Until your wound gets healed, stay here. Also, I am thankful for your expeditious act.”

“That was my duty towards the Crown Prince. However, there is one thing that the Crown Prince must know. That person had been following us for a long time. It seems someone found out about the Crown Prince in the restaurant,” Liu Jin Yu concluded.

“General Hei and Brother Mu are looking into that. Soon, the culprit will be found,” Xiaoming asserted and made her sit on the bed. He sat next to her and asked her if she didn’t get hurt anywhere else in her body.

“No. My abdomen hurts since he kicked it. I will be fine after a good rest,” Liu Jin Yu stated. Her hand came to her belly as she caressed it.

“I never saw any woman like you,” Xiaoming remarked. “You didn’t even fear fighting with him. I never knew that if I got attacked someday, you would save me,” he said.

“Isn’t the future unpredictable? Indeed, the Crown Prince has no idea what will happen in the future; who he will meet, marry, fall in love with, and many other things.Even for me, meeting the Crown Prince was a luck by chance,” Liu Jin Yu proclaimed.

“Luck by chance or destiny?” Xiaoming raised his eyebrow.

“It cannot be destiny,” Liu Jin Yu answered.

“Why?” Xiaoming was interested to know.

“Because once I met a very popular shaman in the town. She told me that my luck is excellent. Because of luck, I got those things which I never imagined,” Liu Jin Yu said with a broad smile.

“I won’t argue against that statement,” Xiaoming said, standing up to walk to the door. Liu Jin Yu laid down, thinking he was going to go out. But to her surprise, he came back with a large silver bowl in his hand. The bowl contained many fruits in it with a knife.

Xiaoming again sat beside her and started to cut the fruits for her. He sliced two apples and handed the plate over to Liu Jin Yu. “Eat them,” he said.

“Can I?” Liu Jin Yu asked.

“Hmm.”

She took the plate from him and started to eat the fruits. “Mmm, these are delicious and super juicy. The Royals are lucky to have such kinds of fruit,” she said, and enjoyed the apples.

Xiaoming smiled upon hearing her. “Even markets have apples,” he stated.

“But they never tasted like this. Poor aren’t lucky enough to eat such things,” Liu Jin Yu said. He cut more apples for her and asked her to eat them slowly.

“I am such a bad person. Making the Crown Prince work,” she said, and asked him to give her the knife to him. “I will cut myself,” she opined.

“It’s fine. I will do it. You can enjoy eating them. I never saw any person enjoying the fruits in this way,” Xiaoming asserted. However, Liu Jin Yu didn’t agree with him and insisted on giving her a knife. While doing so, the knife cut Xiaoming’s index finger.

“Forgive me.” Liu Jin Yu panicked to see that and held his finger. “I didn’t intend to do that, Your Royal Highness. Please forgive me,” she apologized and moved her thumb away from the cut.

But the bleeding didn’t stop. At that moment, she brought his finger near her mouth and sucked the blood from the cut. She pulled away and looked at it. “It’s the easiest method to stop the bleeding,” she stated and looked at him.

Gradually, the smile faded from her lips as she felt his intense gaze on her. She let go of his hand and averted her gaze from him.

“Jin Yu,” Xiaoming called her name out.

“Hmm?” She kept her head down and picked up a slice of apple.

“Look at me,” Xiaoming asked her.

Liu Jin Yu lifted her eyelids and peered at him. The beats of her heart suddenly shot up. She was unable to understand why it happened to her.

“I have found out who can become my wife,” Xiaoming said.

“Really?” Liu Jin Yu smiled and pushed the slice of apple into his mouth. “The Crown Prince shall eat too,” she stated.

Xiaoming chewed the apple, and soon they both finished eating. “Shall I ask them to bring lunch for us? You must be hungry,” he said.

“I had my lunch earlier, but I won’t refuse the delicious food of the palace,” Liu Jin Yu said. Xiaoming smiled and called a servant in. He asked her to bring meals for them.

“My Royal Father will meet you later. He probably wants to thank you. So, after having our lunch, we will go to meet the King,” Xiaoming informed her.
