Long Rui raised his head and saw Xuexue, a smile appearing on his lips, "Darling, you're here!"
"Yeah, the steward said the Prince was looking for me; what's it all about?" Xuexue was quite puzzled, as Long Rui had always worn a mask in the past, but today he took it off. Was he not afraid of being discovered by the Emperor's spies?
Long Rui stood up, considerately pulling out a chair for Xuexue, "Darling, have a seat."
"Mm!" Xuexue sat down, her eyes never leaving Long Rui.
"Darling, why are you staring at me like that?"
"Prince, you're not wearing a mask today."
"It's just the two of us in the study; it doesn't matter whether I wear it or not. You've seen me, haven't you?" Long Rui looked at Xuexue with a faint smile.
When he used to be silly, she didn't think he was particularly handsome. But since finding out he's back to normal, Xuexue realized that Long Rui always manages to catch her attention unknowingly.
