Because he woke up.
"Your Highness is awake." A smile suddenly appeared on Shen Ling's face, a smile as beautiful as a flower.
The dark clouds in my eyes dissipated instantly.
You can see some stars twinkling, their light faint, but it's enough to move you in the deep night sky.
However, Shen Ling quickly regained her aloof and distant expression.
She always kept her expression well under control.
"Does Your Highness feel unwell?" Shen Ling performed a curtsy, then asked softly with a hint of worry on her face.
"There's nothing wrong with it." Gu Mu said this to reassure Shen Ling.
As long as his life is not in danger, Shen Ling would never make this ridiculous deal with the dead.
