"Ouch!" Shuang moaned in pain as she threw the broken branch aside. She helped herself to stand up while caressing her butt.
Prince Li Shen looked at the sorry state of the young girl in front of him with a weird expression under his golden mask.
Shuang was in this figure when she remembered about the person under the tree earlier. She slowly looked up and shook!
'Of all the people, why would it must be this Purple Prince.'
Shuang straightened up her body as she bore the pain in her but.
"Apologies for disturbing your silent moment Your Highness!" Shuang slightly bend forward as she showed respect.
'Damn! Why do ancient time people need to perform this annoying gesture everytime they encountered people from the Royal family? If it's in my past modern time, people will just hurriedly took their cam to have selfie with the president or the Royalties.'
Shuang was complaining inside as she waited for the Prince to permit her to stand up.
Seconds passed by.....A minute passed by...
'Wait, why doesn't he make a statement yet? Is he going to punish me?' Sh*t! How long do I have to stay in this position?'
"What are you doing up there?"
Shuang immediately stop contemplating when she suddenly heard the cold soothing voice of the Prince.
"Your Highness, I was trying to climb up to the roof for a sightseeing." 'As I felt boredom inside the banquet hall.' Shuang completed her statement in her mind.
"You felt bored?"
" A little bit Your Highness as I am not accustomed to a big banquet like this."
"How old are you?"
'Why is this Prince asking something personal now?' Hey Purple Prince, this lass doesn't have the agenda for marriage yet. Don't ever ask me to be your concubine or else I have to run away from this Empire.'
"This lowly lass is still fifteen Your Highness."
"How old are you when started your studies under Doctor Fang? "
'Wait, is he interrogating me?' For what?'
"I was six Your Highness." Shuang answered half true and half false as she was really six when she started holding surgical knife and scissor in front of a corpse man in her past life. False because it doesn't still a year when she came to this world and became family of the Mo and Ren Family.
'Wait Your Highness, when will you allow me to stand up?' Shuang asked silently as her eyes still on the ground.
"Stay that way for one hour. That is your punishment for disturbing me." Prince Li Shen said before he left the place.
'What?!' Shuang immediately looked up but the Prince was already gone from the place where he stood up earlier.
"It was me who came here first. Shouldn't it was you who disturbed me? And end up fallen from the tree and now I end up like this?" Shuang lowly complained as she was afraid that somebody will hear her adding to her current punishment.
Prince Li Shen who was just turned around the corner with a very sharp hearing instantly stopped from his walked as he heard the girl complained.
Rong Ho who waited him in the corner suddenly felt uneasy specially to the girl who dared to spout out those words against this black Prince.
