Mo Yuan, Yaoguang and Zheyan were discussing some important matters with Emperor Donghua, while Lin Jiu sat aside and listened quietly.

Although she didn't know much about these topics, she tried to remain serious.

However, as time went on, Lin Jiu began to feel a little sleepy. She couldn't help but yawn while secretly glancing at Emperor Donghua.

When Emperor Donghua looked at her, she quickly lowered her hand that was covering her mouth and revealed an innocent smile.

Emperor Donghua looked at the sleepy, charming little face in front of him, and his eyes became deep.

After a moment, he said to Mo Yuan and the others, "Let's stop here for today."

Mo Yuan and the other three naturally noticed Lin Jiu's little movements, and they had already learned a lot of information through Lin Jiu's thoughts, so they all stood up and said goodbye to Emperor Donghua and Lin Jiu and left.

Lin Jiu looked at Mo Yuan and the others with a bewildered look on his face as they left, wondering why they were leaving so suddenly.

Fortunately, Emperor Donghua didn't let her think for too long. He took her to the nearby Lotus Courtyard. Lin Jiu followed Emperor Donghua into the courtyard. Seeing the familiar bellflower tree and the Tianling Spring, the strange feeling in her heart immediately disappeared.

Emperor Donghua looked at the woman before him. She was gazing at her surroundings with excitement, her eyes bright and clear. She ran joyfully toward the bellflower tree and the Heavenly Spirit Spring, as if they were the most important things in her life.

Lin Jiu ran, feeling the gentle breeze brushing against her cheeks, her heart filled with joy. She turned and looked at Emperor Donghua, her eyes sparkling.

"Emperor, is this place... prepared for me?" Although Lin Jiu had doubts, he was very sure. He looked at Emperor Donghua with his eyes slightly curved and a bright smile on his face.

Emperor Donghua was slightly taken aback, touched by Lin Jiu's smile. He then nodded gently. He looked at her cheerful figure, a warm feeling welling up in his heart. This woman always brought him unexpected mood swings.

Lin Jiu knew that this courtyard should have been specially arranged for her by the Emperor, not to mention the glittering name of Lotus Courtyard. Thinking of this, Lin Jiu felt a throbbing in her heart. She was not an emotionless person, not to mention that she had experienced several worlds. Although she had suppressed her emotions, she could still understand that she might have fallen in love with the Emperor.

She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself. She told herself that this was just a temporary emotional fluctuation and that she couldn't let it affect her state of mind and her practice. She had to remain calm and rational, not be swayed by her emotions.

However, when she looked up at Emperor Donghua again, the throbbing in her heart intensified. She realized that this throbbing wasn't just a momentary impulse, but a genuine feeling deep within her heart. She couldn't help but fall into deep thought. Perhaps she had already had a crush on the Emperor the first time she saw him!

It was not surprising that she was attracted to him, because Emperor Donghua was indeed a very charming god. Putting aside his status and cultivation, his appearance and temperament simply captured Lin Jiu's heart.

Emperor Donghua quietly watched the subtle changes in Lin Jiu's expression, as if he could see through her eyes and see into the entanglement deep in her heart.

He walked silently to her side, reached out his hand gently and patted her shoulder.

"What's wrong?" Emperor Donghua asked softly, with a hint of concern in his tone.

Lin Jiu slowly raised his head and met Emperor Donghua's gaze, his eyes filled with confusion, determination, and a hint of barely perceptible shyness.

"I... I don't know how to answer you, Emperor." Lin Jiu lowered his head slightly and murmured softly, with a hint of timidity in his tone.

The corners of Emperor Donghua's mouth curled up slightly, a faint smile blooming on his handsome face. His eyes, as deep as a pool of water, sparkled with light.

"It's okay, don't worry too much, go back and rest." The voice of Emperor Donghua was like a spring breeze blowing across the lake, soft and warm.

Lin Jiu nodded slightly, as if he had made up his mind to follow the advice of Emperor Donghua.

She knew that time would be the key to resolving her doubts, and that everything would gradually become clearer as time went by. She took a deep breath and then bowed to Emperor Donghua, expressing her gratitude and respect.

Then she turned around and left quickly, with light steps, as if she was afraid that someone would discover the secret in her heart.

After returning to the room, Lin Jiu closed the door, leaned against it, and covered his chest tightly with his hands, trying to calm the emotions surging in his heart.

Her heartbeat grew more intense, like a bird trapped in a cage, desperately trying to break free. She didn't know why she was so nervous, but she felt as if she were in a dream and couldn't extricate herself.

She closed the door, her eyes closed, and fell asleep. Her movements were so swift and smooth, as if they were all done in one breath. Lin Jiu lay on her bed, closed her eyes, relaxed, and let the weariness wash over her. Her breathing gradually became slow and deep, and everything around her seemed to be forgotten.

Outside, Donghua stood motionless, his gaze fixed on the closed door. Time seemed to freeze at that moment, his eyes revealing an indescribable emotion.

After a while, he lowered his eyes gently, began to tidy up his sleeves, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a faint smile.

Donghua turned and left, his steps steady and calm, as if everything that had just happened was just an illusory dream. He returned to his bedroom and sat quietly on the bed, but his thoughts involuntarily drifted to the woman who had just fallen asleep.

As the night deepened, moonlight shone through the windows, casting a silvery glow. The entire palace was immersed in tranquility, broken only by the occasional sound of wind and rustling leaves. Donghua gazed at the scenery outside the window, feeling a strange sense of emotion well up in his heart.
