Chapter 28 - Fellow Concubines Of The Same King (2/2)

She removed the silk robe from her body, revealing the blood-soaked pajamas.

Her body felt numb all over but she let out a sigh in relief.

The moment Steward Gu left, she already knew the situation might turn out to be like this and the man did prove her right.

But luckily Jun Zixuan had the decency to not check her room or else she would have been done for.

She walked towards the mirror and looked at the reflection. Her face was deathly pale but even with this amount of blood loss, she did not suffer any extreme consequences except for a little weakness.

Any normal person would die after bleeding for one whole night. She glanced at her palm, there were no thorn pricks from yesterday.

She closed her eyes and took a deep breath and entered the walk-in closet before picking up a pink trench coat. She dug her hands inside the pocket and took something out.

She intently looked at the thing.

In her palm, there was a small silver thing that resembled a furball but the face was long. It had a tail that was a little larger than its body, somewhat like a fox. The tips of the silver tail were crimson red.

There was a tiny red lotus mark on its forehead.

But foxes can't be this tiny…she thought to herself.

Moreover, where did it come from?

”My condition…has it got something to do with you?” She murmured and poked its furry but the creature's eyes remained closed.

…

'Beijing issues a rare blizzard alert, which is the lowest in the capital's four-tier warning system. The snow which began hitting southwest Beijing at around 4 am is predicted to cover the whole city at around midnight according to Beijing Meteorological service….'

The news headlines caught her attention as she descended the stairs. She glanced at the television in the living room before walking towards the dining table.

While Jun Zixuan sat on the head chair of the table, she walked towards the other end before taking a seat.

She sipped her orange juice before glancing around the mansion, ”Where is Steward Gu?” she casually asked.

Jun Zixuan paused his movements but did not reply. He chewed his food properly and picked up the glass of water before drinking a few sips.

Compared to his ever so elegant actions, she kept on stuffing the food inside her mouth. Shi Luo has said that her overweight might be related to other health conditions.

So, the last few days of starving herself were all in vain. Right now, she was feeling somewhat weak and extremely hungry so she didn't want to play along with her own rules anymore.

”I heard you were dieting?” The man who was silent till this moment, spoke up at this point just as she stuffed another piece of butter-spread bread in her mouth.

She choked on it before breaking out in coughing fits...

She forcefully gulped it down before drinking water, ”You…Were we fellow concubines of the same king in our previous lives? Why would you always pick on me?” She glared at him.
