She went out this time, and in the blink of an eye, Hua Changge couldn't find her.
Although she still had doubts, Hua Changge's worries eased a little when she saw that she had returned safely, so she didn't press her for more questions.
However, he kept a closer eye on things in the days that followed.
Especially now that she's heavily pregnant, Hua Changge follows her everywhere carefully, afraid that she might bump into something.
This bodyguard is doing a very good job.
Then one night, a strong wind blew outside, and the gloomy sky looked like it was going to rain.
That night they fell asleep in each other's arms early.
Around midnight, the window slammed shut with a loud bang as the wind blew it shut.
Rong Shang woke up when she heard the sound, and for some reason, her heart suddenly ached for a moment.
This feeling is quite rare.
The few times they did occur were after they left the empire.
At that moment, all I could hear was the whistling of the wind.
Rong Shang pursed her lips, and after a few seconds of silence, she turned around to look at the handsome and devilish man beside her.
In that instant, another face overlapped with his.
Some images flashed by quickly.
Hua Changxuan...
Rong Shang seemed to sense something; her expression changed and her brows furrowed.
Before long, she vanished from Hua Changge's side in a flash.

Empire, Yunhe Palace.
On the golden candlestick, the red candlelight flickered.
The man's slender figure was reflected on the white wall in front of him. He held a sharp dagger in his hand, and red blood flowed from his hand, dripping onto the ground.
As Rong Chang passed by, a sudden gust of wind extinguished the candlelight in Yunhe Palace.
In an instant, everything around them went dark, and Hua Changxuan's dark pupils contracted.
He suddenly raised his head, his deep, dark eyes sweeping around.
The next second, a figure walked through the screen and slowly appeared in his line of sight.
The moment Hua Changxuan saw who it was, his pupils dilated, his back stiffened, and he froze, forgetting to let go of the dagger he was holding.
"Splash!" Bright red blood flowed straight down.
Rong Shang frowned slightly, and strode over into the dimly lit space.
After a moment, the man stared blankly as she pulled his hand and took the dagger out of his hand.
"What—"
Before she could finish speaking, a sudden force struck, and the man in front of her pulled her into a tight embrace.
One simple movement almost made her breathless.
"Yunyi, Yunyi..."
His injured hand trembled violently as Hua Changxuan slowly raised it, seemingly lost in thought, before pulling it back down again.
No, it's too dirty.
"You've come to see me! You've finally come to see me!"
A hoarse voice emanated from the depths of his throat; at that moment, his voice trembled, yet it was full of deep emotion.
Since Rong Chang left the empire, Hua Changxuan had been suffering from insomnia for a long time, and now his deep eyes were already filled with bloodshot veins.
But he was holding her, and Rong Shang couldn't see him.
However, he was holding her so tightly that the blood on his hands had already stained her plain-colored clothes.
Rong Shang didn't mind, but... she struggled to get out of his arms.
In that instant, his arms were empty, and Hua Changxuan felt utterly desolate.
He pursed his pale lips and took two steps back.
But then she grabbed his hand.
Hua Changxuan looked up in a daze, only to find that she had already pulled him forward.
For a moment, he watched her focused expression as she bandaged his wound.
His delicate brows furrowed, and he turned his face away, feigning indifference.
