Lóng Wei returned to the chamber in the evening. He found from Eunuch Qian He that Li Hua had gone to the garden.
"At this hour?" Lóng Wei's left eyebrow arched. He left for the garden. It was the time when she had to get ready to leave for the Shui Residence.
He halted as he found her in the pavilion. The sun was still above the horizon, so they still had plenty of time. Lóng Wei wanted to make the Shui family's night horrible.
Li Hua turned her head upon hearing the footsteps. She was seated on the floor while her arms rested on the broad wooden handrail before her. She sat straight and pulled her legs close.
"What are you doing here? You should have been ready by now," Lóng Wei stated. Li Hua looked at her clothes and then told him that she didn't need to change.
"Your Highness, please sit down," Li Hua requested. "I want to converse about an important matter with him," she asserted.
