It's been a while.
Xiao Jinxing stood up.
Eunuch Ping had already sent someone to fetch the Emperor's clothes and was waiting for him to change.
"Your Majesty, your body feels cold. Shall we prepare some ginger tea to warm you up?" Eunuch Ping suggested respectfully.
"No need," Xiao Jinxing replied indifferently. He had worked hard to cool himself down.
"As you wish." Eunuch Ping dared not oppose.
After dressing, Xiao Jinxing walked out of the bath.
Then, he headed towards An Ning's inner chamber.
Yue Ying was guarding the door.
Upon seeing the Emperor's approach, she quickly called out, "This servant greets Your Majesty."
"Lower your voice; don't wake the Lady." Eunuch Ping couldn't help but scold Yue Ying.
He figured that if the Emperor took that long in the bath, the Lady must have already fallen asleep.
Yue Ying knelt on the ground, ready to cry.
The Lady had instructed her to alert her if the Emperor came.
So she had no choice but to shout loudly.
