AAfter Layla and the bodyguards, were done celebrating their happiness they led Li Xiaolu and the rest of the people inside the beautiful mansion. But before Li Xiaolu could put her foot inside the mansion, she paused. The scene in front of her made her want to blink her eyes and pinch her arms to verify whether it was real or not.
Inside the mansion, several bodyguards in similar attire were standing in a straight line. They had their heads bowed down respectfully and they were holding a plate full of rose petals. Li Xiaolu didn't know what was happening here and she wondered what kind of kidnapping she was involved in. Looking at everything she could only think of two eligible reasons. Either the Boss was high on drugs or he was mentally unstable. Apart from these two reasons she couldn't think of anything else.
”Miss Li Xiaolu, please...” Layla motioned for Li Xiaolu to enter inside.
Li Xiaolu gave her an awkward look as she took a step inside. Gao Yifeng, Meng Xuimin, and the rest of the people followed behind her. As soon as the Li Xiaolu entered, all the bodyguards that were lined at the entrance bowed down on one knee respectfully and saluted.
”WELCOME TO YOUR PALACE, QUEEN!” All the bodyguards shouted respectfully and they started showering the whole entrance with flower petals. Soon the whole entrance was covered with rose petals and a bad premonition arose in Li Xiaolu's heart.
Li Xiaolu: ”!”
Gao Yifeng: ”?”
Meng Xuimin: ”...”
What is going on? Palace? Queen?
Li Xiaolu was confused. Her whole face was shrouded in doubt. Why were they calling her queen? Suddenly something cracked in her brain and her eyes went wide. She remembered what happened earlier inside the hall. She remembered that the voice said that he was taking revenge for someone. He called that person his queen.
These bodyguards were also calling her queen. Then was that person taking revenge for her? Why? Who is he? When did become somebody's queen?
As Li Xiaolu dreaded these questions she walked slowly towards the hall. On the surface, she looked calm but she knew that she was afraid. Fear gripped every inch of her body as she took steady steps towards the hall. All of sudden she heard a melodious sound. Somebody was playing on the piano and this tune was very familiar to her.
The more she heard the sound of the piano being played the more the tune became familiar to her. Li Xiaolu remembered a certain song that she wrote for Ming Yu's album not long ago. This piano tune sounded just like the tune of that particular song.
Li Xiaolu walked a little further and a very large hall appeared in front of her. Just like at the entrance, several bodyguards were also appointed at their respective places inside the hall. Li Xiaolu looked around carefully and suddenly she noticed that on her left side there was a man playing the piano. He had his back towards her and therefore Li Xiaolu couldn't see his face.
He looked sort of young but by the way, he played the piano Li Xiaolu knew that he was quite skillful. As the music came to an end Li Xiaolu clearly heard the man say, ”You are finally here, my queen!”
