Since last night, Xuexue hasn't paid any attention to him. Long Rui stood outside her window all night, shivering from the cold, and returned to his room in the morning sneezing.
Seeing this, Long Yi knew the master had caught a chill, so he quickly had the servants heat up some water for a hot bath and made him drink a bowl of ginger soup. Afterwards, Long Rui took a nap to recover his energy.
He had just been sitting in the study reading a book for a while when a servant reported that the Princess Consort, with a dozen servants in tow, had stormed into the west wing room. Fearing Xuexue might be at a disadvantage, he hurried over with guards to help extricate Xuexue from the situation.
Long Rui, in a selfless manner, still very coolly said, "Speak! In the War Prince's Mansion, as long as there's reason, I will not favor anyone."
Xuexue felt utter disdain inside; this man in front of her, she understood him more than anyone, after having been with him for months.
