A king vs an emperor

While everyone else was eating, Chi Lian stepped away to make a call to Muyang, to check on him and little monk as well as fill him in on the happy reunion of her mother with her parents.

She had both his office schedule and school schedule on her phone so she knew when he would be busy and when he would be free. Right now, he was free. They had been together for many months and yet her heart still beat quite fast when she called him. Chi Lian often wondered if it was the same for him or whether this fluttering feeling in her tummy would ever fade.

"Hey," Muyang said lazily in a soft voice when he picked up.

"Hi." She replied coquettishly and then giggled in a way that shocked her so much so that she covered her mouth to stop herself.

"He-he." Muyang chuckled, "Are you blushing right now?" he asked in a soft teasing voice.
