“I brought hot tea for you. Why didn’t you take an umbrella when you knew that rain could fall anytime?” She asked and placed the teapot and teacups on the table.

“I forgot the umbrella at my workplace,” Xu Zifan said while trying to tie the loose knot on his robe.

Jingfei turned to him and walked up to him. She held the knot and said, “Let me do it.” She tied the knot on his robe and raised her head.

“Come and have a hot tea,” Jingfei said and turned to go when Xu Zifan grasped her wrist. She glanced at him with inquisitiveness.

Xu Zifan shook his head and took a step toward her. He leaned down and kissed her lips, startling her. “We should frequently kiss...” he said and gulped. He was quite shy around the women. After the kiss from that night, he turned a little confident.

Jingfei smiled to hear him. “Why do you look scared then?” She asked.

“Do I look scared?” Xu Zifan questioned.

“Yes. Look at your face,” She said while kept smiling. She tiptoed and kissed him back on the lips before taking him toward the table.

She poured the tea into a teacup. “How was the work? Did you have fun on your second day?” She inquired.

“There is huge work to do. Higher-ups kept the work pending. Petty matters aren’t looked into. So, I looked into them. It was fun finding so many people still file petitions to seek justice,” Xu Zifan explained to her and picked up the teacup to take a sip.

“I was never bothered about such things before. But now, when I go out, meet people and talk to them, I realize that running a kingdom is difficult,” Jingfei said.

“It is indeed difficult,” Xu Zifan answered.

“I heard that Jianjun is back with his power. Did he come to you? He didn’t threaten you, right?” She asked.

“He has returned. He came to see me yesterday, but Prince Lóng Wei has warned him. Jianjun is still angry with the fact that I married you,” Xu Zifan stated.

“It must be difficult for you. I made you stuck. Forgive me,” Jingfei said while feeling guilty.

“You don’t need to apologize. You didn’t make me stuck either nor it is difficult for me,” Xu Zifan said and sipped more tea. Jingfei also drank the tea before it could turn cold.

“I think I will talk to my father regarding this. Before Jianjun can become a threat to us, he must be removed,” Jingfei suggested to him.

“It will increase his bitterness toward us. Don’t do this. It is now a matter between Jianjun and me. He only wants to trouble me, which will not last longer,” Xu Zifan asserted and asked her to finish the tea.

He picked up the teapot and filled their cups again. “The tea is more delicious because of your love,” He complimented Jingfei, who smiled to hear him.

“I love making tea for you,” Jingfei said and brought the teacup closer to her mouth.

Xu Zifan’s heart fluttered to hear her. He continued to drink the tea with her and enjoyed his personal time with her.

Lóng Wei put on the overcoat and turned to look at Chang Shi. “Thank you for treating me well. I should take my leave,” Lóng Wei said.

“Should I accompany the Sixth Prince?” Chang Shi asked while getting worried.

Lóng Wei shook his head. “I will have a short conversation with Li Zixuan,” he stated. Chang Shi saw him out and watched Lóng Wei leaving in a horse.

Lóng Wei stopped outside the Li Residence and walked in. He asked the first servant he saw to inform Li Zixuan that he wanted to see him.

The servant complied with the Prince’s order and first took him to the guest room. Lóng Wei didn’t have to wait long for Li Zixuan, who entered the room with a proud face.

“Prince Lóng Wei isn’t welcomed in my house,” Li Zixuan remarked as he settled on the broad chair opposite Lóng Wei.

“I didn’t either want to come here,” Lóng Wei said, “but it was necessary.”

“Why? Is the Sixth Prince scared to find that he could be thrown out of the governor’s position soon?” Li Zixuan inquired.

“You should not forget that I don’t fear people like you. I am here to tell you to make a decision,” Lóng Wei said.

“Your unworthy son may do something stupid to change the future of the Li family. Why don’t you try to stop it?” Lóng Wei asked.

Li Zixuan frowned to hear those words. “What does Prince Lóng Wei want to say?” He questioned as he was confused.

“Meet me tomorrow evening at...” Lóng Wei paused and then named a place in a lower voice. “If you do not want the Li family’s downfall because of your dear son. I won’t tell Father in the morning if you give me an answer now,” he stated. Lóng Wei had to use Jianjun to bring Zixuan out of his safe territory to kill him.

“Also, don’t tell anyone about this. I may back off from my plan to help you,” Lóng Wei affirmed.

“Prince Lóng Wei cannot threaten me,” Li Zixuan didn’t agree to meet him tomorrow evening.

“Don’t you want to remain as the Minister?” Lóng Wei asked. “Don’t be a petty father and family head,” He stated and stood up.

“I will come, Your Highness,” Li Zixuan said.

“I am glad that you decided to save your family,” Lóng Wei stated. “Don’t try to fool me, Li Zixuan. I will not spare you if you do,” he threatened Li Zixuan before leaving the guest room.
