If it weren't for Yui not sensing her ethereal aura, she would have thought she had a sister lost among the common people.
"They look so similar, this is...”
The Eunuch stepped forward, whether intentionally or not, blocking Yui's line of sight.
“Yui, they are the new palace maids who will serve the Crown Prince alongside you from now on.”
“Is that so?” Yui frowned slightly, feeling a bit uncomfortable, which shifted her focus.
Just as she was about to say something else, the Crown Prince's voice came through.
“Yui, come in.”
Yui stuck out her tongue and hopped inside, not forgetting to whisper to them, “I’ll come find you to play later.”
But business was more important.
As soon as she entered, she saw the Crown Prince leisurely leaning against the Soft Couch reading a book.
Yui quickly made her way to him, snatched his book away with one hand, and comfortably settled into his embrace.
The Crown Prince was not angry, but he held her and said, "Just tell me what's on your mind."
Yui felt a bit awkward; it seemed the Crown Prince understood her better.
Her mind was racing, trying to figure out how to explain to the Crown Prince without making him angry.
The reason she was returning to the Heavenly Palace was to renounce her celestial status, and she might never come back. If she revealed this, the Crown Prince would definitely not allow her to go.
Moreover, if she couldn't return, she didn't want the Crown Prince to know she had died. She would rather he think she had betrayed him; that way, he could still find another woman...
Her heart began to ache again, but she couldn't be too selfish.
Resolutely, Yui lifted her head and looked at the Crown Prince. "I want to go back to the Heavenly Palace."
The grip around her waist suddenly tightened fiercely, enough for Yui to frown.
"What did you say?"
His tone was chilling, his gaze deep.
Yui struggled to turn her face away. "I want to go back to the Heavenly Palace."
Her face was abruptly turned back towards him. "Look at me and say it again."
Yui's tone suddenly became weak. "I'm sorry, Nuo, I have something urgent to do at Heavenly Palace."
The Crown Prince looked deeply at her, pursing his lips and remaining silent.
After a long while—
"Will you come back?"
It was Yui's turn to be silent. She didn't know if she could return, so she couldn't even make a promise.
