Your Highness Yh Chapter 50 (2/2)

With that thought, Lin Shan bravely followed Du Hao.

——-

Lin Shan watched Du Hao stopped in front of a room. He pushed the door opened, and Lin Shan was welcomed by the warmth of a heater. The warmth embraced her frozen body and Lin Shan’s will to survive suddenly erupted.

Before Du Hao could say a word, she had already slipped into the room and huddled right beside the heater. Lin Shan heavenly sighed.

Mother! It’s freezing! Freezing, I tell you! What type of messed up weather is this? It’s supposed to be raining but it felt like I was being slapped by ice instead. It was trying to take my life!

As Lin Shan silently fumed, the room lit up. Du Hao came over and rudely threw a cloth on her head.

Lin Shan couldn’t see a thing and clumsily took the cloth off her head, only to see Du Hao changing in front of her without a care.

Du Hao looked like he was about to go to bed. He only had a black rope draped on his body. Once he took it off, his tan skin was exposed; along with all his scars.

Although Lin Shan had seen Du Hao change before, she still felt awkward. Lin Shan quickly pulled off her headband and covered her face with the cloth to dry her hair.

By the time I’m done drying my hair, he should be finished changing, right? Lin Shan thought to herself. Therefore, she continued wiping her hair for a long period of time. There didn’t seem to be any movement from Du Hao.

I think he should be done by now. Lin Shan carefully removed the cloth from her head as she decided to secretly scanned around the room.

When she did, she nearly yelped out in surprise.

Du Hao was sitting directly in front of her. He had already changed into his sleeping garments. He was wearing a dark green robe without a waist belt. He simply draped it onto his shoulders. Du Hao’s honey coloured chest was bare in front of Lin Shan.

For some odd reason, Lin Shan thought of Lin Feng and her nose tingled. She felt a nosebleed coming.

At that moment, Du Hao coldly interrupted her thoughts: “Are you done looking?”

Lin Shan was brought back to reality. She immediately realized the person in front of her wasn’t Lian Feng, but Du Hao. Although they had the exact same face, their aura was totally different. One of them was calm and secretive; while the other one was wild and arrogant. The moment they opened their mouths, she could tell them apart.

Lin Shan composed herself and used the cloth to wipe her face. Currently, she actually felt relieved she couldn’t speak. At least, she could use it as an excuse to ignore Du Hao’s questions.

Lin Shan didn’t say a word. But Du Hao wasn’t frustrated. He continued watching her from his seat.

Honestly, Du Hao never expected to b.u.mp into Song Luo here. This part of the Palace was very remote. This was where his grandfather, the previous Emperor, lived during his retirement. When he was little, he would often come here. After his grandfather pa.s.sed away, this hidden area was abandoned for several years.

It wasn’t until he recently returned in triumph that he ordered Gu Zuo to get the servants to renovate the place. At the end of every month, he would come here and stay a night to reminisce his grandfather. Unexpectedly, Lin Shan somehow found her way here as well.

Was this fate?

Lin Shan was still wiping her face. She had been here for over half a year now, yet she had never encountered such a rainstorm. She couldn’t help but think back to her hometown. Where she came from rained a lot. Sometimes, the rain would continue for days. Whenever that happened, her favourite thing to do was to stay in bed and daydream under her blanket.

The deafening lightning hadn’t stopped, but Lin Shan’s mind had already drifted far far away. Suddenly, Du Hao took the cloth from her and she snapped back into reality.
