After leaving the palace, Xiao Xiuning fell asleep in the carriage on the way back to the princess's residence, leaning against Mu Zian's shoulder.
Her delicate eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and her lips were slightly parted.
With each breath, a fragrant warmth seemed to waft towards me.
She leaned against her shoulder, revealing a large expanse of snow-white skin.
Even Mu Zian was momentarily stunned by what he saw.
His eyes, however, unconsciously drifted down to her fair neck.
Is it pretty?

"listen."
Mu Zian's confused voice fell.
Xiao Xiuning wrapped her fair arms tightly around Mu Zian's neck, and her breathing became heavy for a moment.
