"I hate you" She hissed with trembling lips, her body drenched by the rain. The coldness stole the lively colour of her lips and replaced it with a shade of dark purple, but even in this state she was stunning. He stepped closer, the distance between them narrowed to near nothing. Seeing her dressed in the long white robe with long hair gracefully falling was different from when he thought she was a mere male guard. He remained silent, simply looking at the girl who didn't fail to show her hatred through the dark beautiful eyes. If looks could kill, he wouldn't be able to reincarnate. "Hating me for killing them or because I didn't follow your demand?" He was close, to the point she felt his warmth despite the drizzling rain. "Or because I didn't died?"

(Excerpt) "What are you doing here?" The voice, quiet and cutting, broke her concentration. Ruyi broke out in cold sweat as her qi spiked and she breathed slowly as she brought it back under control. When she could, she looked up. The Third Prince Yuezhen was standing in front of her wearing a bemused expression. He was wearing his dark purple robes as usual, and carried a long sheathed sword in his hand. The bright moonlight turned his dark hair to silver. "Are you a maid? This Fragrant Harmony Garden isn't for maidservants to play in." "Why not?" The words came out before she could control herself. "I'm the one that spends the most time here cleaning after all." The corner of his lips jerked into a half smile. "You are the maid from this afternoon. Are the maids in the Empress' palace so ill disciplined? Don't you even know to make the proper greeting to a master?" ---------------- Written in the style of a Chinese light novel and will be updated frequently. ---------------- Rankings #7 in fantasy-romance #47 xianxia #51 wuxia
