Xin'er felt a sense of confusion, unable to recall where she had heard that sound before.
However, as she continued to listen to the strange panting noise, an unsettling feeling grew within her, prompting her to consider turning back.
Just as Xin'er decided to turn around, she accidentally stepped on something, producing a sharp 'crack' sound.
Perhaps alerted by the noise, the flowers ahead fell silent.
Then, a rough and hoarse voice rang out—
"Who’s there!"
Upon hearing this unfamiliar yet displeased voice, Xin'er sensed danger approaching her.
Startled, she instinctively took a step back and intended to leave.
Yet around her, aside from the beautiful flowers, there were only a few lush trees surrounding her.
She had no idea where to hide.
At this thought, Xin'er’s heart raced in her chest.
In her moment of panic, suddenly, a large hand swiftly covered her mouth. Before she could react, she felt a tight grip around her waist, and in an instant, she was pulled upward by an unseen force.
"Ugh..."
As her toes momentarily lost their grip and landed on a branch, Xin'er realized, only after the fact, that she had leaped from the ground up into the tree.
What on earth is happening!?
And who was the person covering her small mouth and holding her slim waist!?
Xin'er felt confused and anxious, struggling and writhing in response.
After all, aside from Xuan, she disliked other men touching her.
She was certain that the one who covered her mouth and brought her up into the tree was a man because she could smell the faint scent of ambergris emanating from him.
Not knowing who he was or what he intended to do made Xin'er feel uneasy and frightened.
However, at that moment, a clear voice, familiar yet low, suddenly whispered in her ear—
"Don't move too much; be careful not to be discovered by those below."
"Uh..."
Upon hearing the man's words behind her, Xin'er immediately quieted down.
It wasn't out of fear of being discovered by those below; rather, it was because the voice behind her was so familiar.
Even without turning to look, Xin'er already recalled who he was.
Surprised in her heart, Xin'er had thought that she would never have any further interactions with the young man. Unexpectedly, today she encountered him within the palace.
As Xin'er was taken aback, Beautiful Eyes glanced down, and when her gaze fell upon the scene below, she was immediately struck as if by a thunderbolt.
Just moments ago, the lush flower bushes had obscured her view, allowing her only to hear voices without understanding the situation below.
Now, standing high up on the tree trunk, she could see far and wide. Thus, the sight of a man and a woman entangled together below was vividly captured in Xin'er's eyes.
In fact, this was not the first time Xin'er had witnessed such a scene.
The difference was that the first time she saw it was with Xuan.
Moreover, it had been late at night, with darkness surrounding them, making it difficult to see clearly.
But now, it was entirely different.
At this moment, close to noon, the sun hung high in the sky, its dazzling rays shining brightly upon the earth.
On the verdant grass below, surrounded by flourishing flower bushes, lay a man and a woman.
She could see that they had only removed their pants while still wearing their shirts.
Seeing their attire, it was clear they were palace guards and maids.
In broad daylight, within the heavily guarded imperial palace, their audacity was truly remarkable!
Xin'er, while astonished, felt an overwhelming sense of shyness.
Although she was still a maiden, she had learned quite a bit about matters between men and women.
So, when she saw the scene below, she immediately understood what they had been doing just moments ago.
No wonder she had thought that the heavy panting sounded so familiar; it turned out to be...
As Xin'er pondered this in her heart, the man below finished putting on his trousers and cautiously surveyed his surroundings with a drawn sword. Only when he confirmed there was no one around did he relax and return to the woman’s side.
Seeing this, the woman didn’t bother adjusting her clothes; she simply giggled on the grass.
“Jing Ge, you’re so timid! Today is the Emperor's birthday; everyone is at Feilong Palace. Who would come back here!?”
“Haha, sister, it's better to be cautious. I’m just worried about you!”
After saying this, the man immediately took off his trousers again.
Then he lunged straight toward the woman.
The response was a peal of her delicate laughter...
"Jing Ge, you are so bad..."
"Hehe, if a man isn't bad, a woman won't love him..."
As the two below exchanged these words, the sounds of clothes rustling followed, along with the blush-inducing gasps of the woman and the heavy breaths of the man.
Seeing this scene, Xin'er was so frightened that she immediately shut her eyes, no longer daring to look at the embarrassing sight below.
If she could, she would really want to escape far away from here.
However, at this moment, a large hand tightly gripped her waist, and another hand firmly covered her small mouth.
She wanted to scream but couldn't make a sound; she wanted to escape but found herself unable to move.
All she could do was tightly close her eyes and immediately cover her ears with her hands, not wanting to hear those shameful sounds.
In contrast to Xin'er's shy and awkward desire to dig a hole and hide in it, the boy standing behind her remained calm.
His excessively beautiful Phoenix Eyes merely glanced at the entangled couple below before he disinterestedly withdrew his gaze.
After all, he had seen this kind of thing many times before.
In any palace, there were always these secretive couples.
It was nothing unusual.
According to the palace regulations, those palace maids were only allowed to leave the palace once they reached the age of twenty-four.
Regardless of gender, everyone possesses emotions and desires. Although the palace had strict rules, there were still those who slipped through the cracks, engaging in secretive activities away from prying eyes.
The young man had seen much of this and was not particularly bothered by it.
What intrigued him most now was the girl before him!
In the vast Celestial Origin Palace, encountering this girl was unexpected for Aotianqi.
Originally, he had come to Heavenly Origin on behalf of Qi Kingdom merely for formalities.
In truth, he found this trip exceedingly dull.
Especially since he despised dealing with those hypocritical individuals, he had chosen to wander off to a secluded area, planning to return only when the Celestial Emperor made his appearance.
Unexpectedly, upon arriving here, he stumbled upon this girl.
The moment he laid eyes on her, Aotianqi was astonished and captivated, filled with overwhelming joy and admiration!
In the blooming garden filled with flowers, the girl appeared as if she were a Flower Fairy who had mistakenly fallen into the mortal realm.
So ethereal and beautiful.
Her white palace attire seemed as if it had been crafted just for her, perfectly showcasing her petite and exquisite figure.
Her hair, like silk, was no longer simply tied up in two thick braids as it had been last time. Instead, it was styled into an exquisite bun that added an undeniable femininity to her presence.
Her small, palm-sized face, resembling white jade, was lightly dusted with blush, just enough to enhance her natural beauty.
At this moment, the sun shone warmly, and a gentle breeze caressed the girl, causing her garments to flutter and her long hair to dance in the wind.
She was undeniably a breathtaking beauty! So lovely that it was hard to look away.
Just as he was marveling at her, he noticed some movement ahead of her.
As someone trained in martial arts, his hearing was exceptional, and he quickly discerned what was happening in front of him.
Seeing the girl’s panicked expression and the rustling in the bushes ahead, he acted without a second thought. He wrapped his arms around her slim waist and covered her small mouth with his hand as he leaped up into the tree above.
The large tree was lush with leaves, providing excellent cover for them.
In truth, given his status, it should have been him hiding rather than her.
However, he knew this was a rare opportunity—a legitimate reason to hold her close!
Finally, he held her once more!
God knows this was the first time in seventeen years that he had so desperately desired a woman!
From the first moment he saw her, dancing on stage, graceful as a startled swan, she captivated him like a mesmerizing little sprite.
At that time, her figure deeply imprinted itself in his heart.
Though he was astonished, it was merely curiosity that stirred within him.
Later, when he unexpectedly caught her as she stumbled, those clear and pure eyes drew his gaze irresistibly.
After all, in this palace filled with intrigue and deception, where everyone played their roles both in public and in private, the insincere faces and calculating eyes of others were enough to make anyone feel weary.
Yet this young girl's eyes were so clear and clean, like a pristine spring, sweet and astonishingly refreshing!
In his seventeen years of life, he had never seen such beautiful and pure eyes.
It was these very eyes that would suddenly flood his mind during the quiet of the night.
No matter whether he was feeling troubled or triumphant at those moments, those beautiful and clear eyes lingered in his thoughts.
Later on, when he was ambushed by the First Prince and evaded assassins, he thought for sure that he would meet his end.
Little did he expect to encounter her once again...
Just the thought of their next meeting filled him with anticipation.
Inside the room, a light mist curled gently, filling the air with a pleasant fragrance that created an endless ripple of allure.
A stunningly beautiful girl stood there, her clothes partially disheveled, revealing her exquisite figure and fair skin...
Even now, whenever he recalled that scene, his heart would race uncontrollably...
This was the first time in his seventeen years of life that he found himself yearning for a girl!
Unfortunately, at that time, he was surrounded by dangers. To focus on dealing with those who threatened him, he had no choice but to bury his feelings deep within.
Little did he expect that this time, the girl would suddenly appear in his line of sight, just as they had when they first met...
