"How long has he been sleeping?" Bai Xifeng whispered asking Hou Tingguang.
"About one hour." Hou Tingguang answered.
"Can I wake him up? Will he be angry?" Bai Xifeng asked.
"Well... I don’t think so. He might be happy if Lady Bai wakes him up." Hou Tingguang stated.
"Why don’t you wake your master up?" Bai Xifeng pushed the matter to Hou Tingguang.
Hou Tingguang stepped away from Liu Longwei while shaking his head. Well, he did not dare to do it. If he woke up his lord, he did not know what would happen to him. Better avoid that.
Seeing Hou Tingguang like that, Bai Xifeng knew that she would have to wake Liu Longwei up herself. She slowly approached Liu Longwei, who breathed evenly, showing he was sleeping peacefully.
"Oit... Oit... Wake up..." Bai Xifeng gently woke Liu Longwei up.
Liu Longwei responded by moving. He slowly opened his eyes. Probably because he was not in his right mind, he seed to see Bai Xifeng and pulled her hand. Bai Xifeng fell into Liu Longwei’s body. He hugged her.
Bai Xifeng was stunned that she did not react at all. She let her body be hugged by Liu Longwei from a few minutes before her brain processed what had just happened. When she realised it, she struggled in Liu Longwei’s arms.
"Yes... You... Let go." Bai Xifeng hit Liu Longwei’s chest.
"Ouch." Liu Longwei’s mind suddenly woke up.
He looked down and saw Bai Xifeng in his arms. He was shocked.
Bai Xifeng noticed that Liu Longwei looked at her with a stunned expression. He must have realised that he was hugging his fiancée.
"How long are you going to hug like this?" Bai Xifeng asked.
Only then, Liu Longwei let Bai Xifeng go. He stood up.
"Sorry. I don’t realise it. It is not my intention." Liu Longwei imdiately apologised.
"Well, I understand. Let’s eat lunch together." Bai Xifeng tried to control her tone.
Well, she was controlling her expression too. She was embarrassed afterwards.
"Hmm..." Liu Longwei nodded.
"I will go and inform Xiao Li about this." Bai Xifeng left the gazebo first.
Liu Longwei watched Bai Xifeng’s retreat. After Bai Xifeng disappeared from his sight, he glanced at Hou Tingguang, who stood not far from him.
"Why are you not waking up when you see Lady Bai coming?" Liu Longwei asked.
"Well, I don’t dare to wake you up, My Lord." Hou Tingguang stated.
Hou Tingguang was afraid that Liu Longwei would strike him while sleeping. Well, it happened before. Everyone who went to wake Liu Longwei up before had been struck by Liu Longwei. The strike that hurt so much. The problem was that Liu Longwei did not rember striking them when he woke up.
"Next ti, at a ti like this, wake up." Liu Longwei stated.
"Yes, my lord." Hou Tingguang nodded.
But, in his mind, he had already shaken his head. He would never wake Liu Longwei up. The task should belong to Bai Xifeng. Earlier, even though he knew Liu Longwei would strike at the people who woke him up, Hou Tingguang believed that Liu Longwei would never strike Bai Xifeng. And it was right. Liu Longwei even pulled Bai Xifeng into his hug.
The servants ca over to the gazebo bringing the food. Bai Xifeng ca back.
"Let’s eat." Bai Xifeng stated.
Both of them started to eat. It was silent at the mont. Only the chopsticks’ sound could be heard.
"Do you have any work to do?" Bai Xifeng started the conversation.
"Well, not at the mont. Since I am free, I want to stick with you all the ti." Liu Longwei grinned.
Liu Longwei, who liked to flirt with Bai Xifeng, ca back.
"You can’t do. I will be doing the closed cultivation." Bai Xifeng stated.
"Oh.... Really?" Liu Longwei sounded disappointed. "When are you going to start? For how long?"
"I am still considering. As for how long, well, I am trying to break through. So, probably until I manage to break through." Bai Xifeng stated.
"So, if it takes one year, you only co out after one year?" Liu Longwei asked.
"Probably." Bai Xifeng nodded.
"I will miss you." Liu Longwei said.
"Enough with . How long are you going to hide yourself?" Bai Xifeng asked.
"The ti has not arrived. When the right ti cos, I will drop the act. At that ti, I will be a man that you can proudly show off." Liu Longwei stated.
"Humph! Who wants to show off?" Bai Xifeng rolled her eyes.
Liu Longwei smiled handsoly at Bai Xifeng. Bai Xifeng looked in another direction, avoiding Liu Longwei’s eyes.
....
That night, Bai Xifeng told her family about her decision on the closed-door cultivation. Of course, Bai Xiang and Bai Tingfeng were happy with the decision. They were glad that Bai Xifeng wanted to break through. The more stronger Bai Xifeng, the more ease that they felt. So, when they could not get together with Bai Xifeng, Bai Xifeng would be able to defend herself.
Bai Xiang thought it would be safe for Bai Xifeng to do the door-closed cultivation sowhere else. In the Capital City, there were a lot of dangers. He did not feel safe for Bai Xifeng.
So, Bai Xiang suggested that they return to Xianying City. He felt calm in the company of his people. Bai Tingfeng also felt it was a good idea.
