116 Chapter 116 Darkness (1/2)
Lin Xulian checked Xing Baihe's body again to make sure whether she really found a problem. But to her confusion, she found nothing on the second time. 'I must have been too tired.'
Xing Baihe noticed the changes in Lin Xulian's expression so she felt alarmed. ”What is it, your majesty? Is there something wrong with me?”
”Nothing meimei. Sorry for scaring you.” Lin Xulian comforted Xing Baihe. Then Lin Xulian pouted. ”I told you to call me jiejie, right?”
Xing Baihe blushed. ”Please forgive me jiejie. I'm just not used to it. I only have a close relationship with my emperor brother and my sisters hate me because of it. So I didn't have anyone to call jiejie.” Xing Baihe said with a sad face.
Lin Xulian's heart softened seeing her sad face. ”You have one now, me. You'll get used to it. Why don't we have a chat? I want to hear more about you and the Zhixiang country.”

Lin Xulian and Xing Baihe chatted for a long time. They even had lunch and afternoon tea together. Lin Xulian only let her leave when the sun almost set. And when Lin Xulian is alone again, her depressed mood also returned. So she just returned to her clinic.
Seeing Lin Xulian being depressed again, Xiao Tianshi felt bad for her. When her boss decided to marry the emperor, Xiao Tianshi never thought she would see Lin Xulian this sad. She represents those neglected wives she read in those novels that her boss brought along from Madame Lin.
Who would have thought that her boss will experience the same fate? She really thought that her boss's husband will fall madly in love with her at a glance. But unfortunately, she underestimated Feng Jun Yi's cold heart. And not to mention his impeccable acting skill. Who would have thought.
”Boss, have you ever suspected Imperial Noble Concubine Xing? After all this started the moment she entered the harem.” Xiao Tianshi suddenly interjected. She found the timing too much of a coincidence.
”That's unlikely. Emperor Xing doesn't look stupid. If he wanted to mess with me or Feng Jun Yi during his sister's ceremony, the blame will obviously fall on them. He loves his sister too much to risk her life. Obviously, the person behind this saw it as an opportunity. Attacking while hiding behind someone else's back.” Lin Xulian solemnly stated.
