330 The Biggest and Scariest Truth

Li Hua gradually opened her eyes and realized she was asleep last night. She was tired and felt sleepy after Lóng Wei left. She wanted to stay awake, but she could not.

She raised her body and put her weight on the left of her elbow. She brought her right hand to his face and poked his cheek. A smile appeared on her lips, and she found him frowning. She wondered if she had awakened him from his sleep, so she quickly withdrew her hand.

Lóng Wei turned to her and his hand went to her waist. Li Hua promptly laid down and Lóng Wei buried his face in the crook of her neck.

She blinked a few times and realized she was unable to move. Lóng Wei’s leg became entangled with hers, and she decided to stay that way.

Her body stiffened when he nuzzled her neck. “Why did you wake up early?” His breath fanned her neck.

“It’s already morning. I think I slept a lot,” she said. “Forgive me, for sleeping early. My eyes could not remain open for long,” she mumbled and tilted her head. “When did His Highness return?”

“After an hour, as I had promised,” he replied and his lips touched her skin. She bit her lower lip and asked him not to start in the morning.

“I have not started yet,” Lóng Wei said.

But His Majesty is-” she paused as Lóng Wei pressed his finger to her lips. He towered over her and then withdrew his finger.

.....

“I did nothing,” Lóng Wei affirmed.

“His Highness looks sleep deprived,” Li Hua said, and placed her hand on his right cheek. “Did he sleep late?” He asked.

“Let me sleep more,” he asserted and lay beside her. He hugged her tightly and asked her to close her eyes as well.

“We must not be late. The King and the Queen will not like it if we do not reach there at the right time,” she proclaimed.

“You can make an excuse then that you are feeling weak,” he gave her a suggestion. “That way, we will be able to rest for more hours. I’ll ask the maidservant to tell Gao Bing about this, then he will tell my father,” he opined.

“His Highness wants me to tell a lie,” Li Hua said and arched her eyebrows.

“Can’t you tell a lie for your husband’s sake?” Lóng Wei inquired.

“But my husband is awake. Then why should I tell a lie?” Li Hua questioned him.

“I am giving you suggestions so that we can sleep for a few more hours,” he stated and caressed her hair.

“When did His Highness sleep last night?” Li Hua asked him.

“I slept as soon as I returned,” he replied.

“Then, why does His Highness want to sleep more?” She inquired.

“I like to sleep till late. In the cold palace, I used to wake up in the afternoon,” he stated. Li Hua squinted her eyes and sat up on the bed.

Lóng Wei looked at her and asked her not to get down. He would call the maidservant in.

“I need to get ready. I will tell His Majesty in the greeting hall that Prince Lóng Wei isn’t feeling well, so he didn’t come. Is that good?” Li Hua wondered if he liked her opinion. “I can tell a lie if His Highness tells me the truth,” she then stated.

Lóng Wei gazed at her with inquisitiveness.

“His Highness didn’t sleep early. He is lying to me. Am I right?” She queried. “What was bothering him that he could not sleep well?” She was desperate to know.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

“Fine. I will wake up too,” Lóng Wei said and moved the blanket away. He put his feet down, ready to stand up when Li Hua caught his wrist. She pulled him down and he turned to look at her.

“His Highness shall not avoid my question,” Li Hua stated. “I won’t speak to him if he doesn’t tell me,” she threatened him.

“I slept in the early morning, near 4 a.m.,” Lóng Wei answered.

“Why?” She asked.

“I do not know,” Lóng Wei answered.

“His Highness knows, but he does not want to tell me,” she asserted and pouted her lips.

“I was thinking if I was living a good life,” Lóng Wei said. Li Hua was bewildered to hear his statement. She wanted further explanation when Lóng Wei continued, “I am happy, but I do not know how happy I am. Is this the happiness I always desired or do I want an excuse to kill her?”

Li Hua realised Lóng Wei was referring to his mother. She moved on her knees towards him and hugged him tightly. “I do not know what exactly happened between His Highness and his mother, but I know that he is happy with me. He told me many times that he is happier than his earlier life,” she stated and caressed his back.

“Li Hua, I killed her because she told me something that could change my entire life. She asked me to kill her. So, without any hesitation, I picked up the sword and killed her. I ended her life to live a happy life,” Lóng Wei pronounced. He finally told her the secret, which he had buried within himself for years.

Li Hua pulled away and peered into his eyes.

“What did His Highness’s mother tell him?” She waited for his response.

“I am not the son of the King. That’s why she wanted me to be dead. This is the biggest and scariest truth of my life,” Lóng Wei finally revealed the truth to her which he had pledged not to share with anyone.
