I was so mesmerized that a too loud groan unwittingly escaped from my mouth...Oh my god!
I quickly submerged in the water....But...but. it was too late...
While the water was covering my eyes, I still could see him turning his head in my direction!
What do I do now?
Should I simply let myself drown and die in embarrassment?
Or should I make it look like a stupid prank and jump up from the water, shouting: "Surprise! Welcome to Peony!"?
When I felt a sharp pain in my shoulder and couldn't hold my breath anymore, I had no other choice but to resurface the water.
In my sight came the two men staring at me.
One of them was the guard who was poking me wherever he could reach my body with his sword, yelling hysterically: "Who are you?! Who sent you?! What is your intention?!"
The other one was Beauty, of course, standing with his back to the pool while struggling to cover as much as he could from his naked body with the silk robe, probably prepared beforehand by the caretaker.
"For heaven's sake, stop playing with that, I'm bleeding already!", I shouted, knocking the sword away from my arm.
"Oh my goodness! Please, please forgive me, Your Royal Highness!
I didn't recognize you, I swear on my life! Please, forgive me, I am so sorry!", the guard dropped onto his knees and kept kowtowing, hitting the ground with his forehead with loud thumps."Your Royal Highness?
Who? What the?
Wang Yibo?
Is it you?
How? Why?", Beauty spoke in a very low voice. But I heard his sweet voice clearly, even though his hand was covering his mouth in shock."Yes, I am. I will explain everything to you.", I smiled at my beloved prince, even though I had no explanation in my mind to give him.
Then I spoke to the tormented guard, who was on the verge of crying, especially at the sight of my scratched shoulder:
"You can leave now. And don't worry, you have nothing to apologize about, you did nothing wrong.
Actually I am thankful to you for your vigilance in protecting The Prince of Rose, a guest so important to Peony."
