Detective Ghost Empress

Liu Hui Ying did not know why her heart felt assaulted at the idea of leaving these two women but what surprised her was that as soon as the thought of leaving this time and place came to her mind, something hit her in the back of her head and she almost staggered when the image of a sulking man flashed in her head.

" UWAH!"

"What's wrong your majesty? Did you have a nightmare?" Nanny Gong who had just finished her mutton cake rushed over to where Liu Hui Ying was lying and helped her up. She even took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat that was covering Liu Hui Ying's forehead. " Your majesty everything is fine. You do not need to worry. We will get out of this place very soon."

However, Liu Hui Ying knew that she needed to worry very much about something. What was that? Why did she think of Zhai Tianyu?

Her heart was beating against her ribs so hard that Liu Hui Ying was sure that her heart was about to jump out of her chest. No way… she must have thought of him because he was super annoying and clingy at times but there was no way she thought of him because she felt something for him.

Liu Hui Ying felt nausea climb up her throat, it was just that she knew it was not nausea. It was something else.

She shook her head to get rid of the unwanted thoughts, she did not need those thoughts and Liu Hui Ying was certain that she had no such intention either. She couldn't even touch a man damn it!

What was she thinking?

" I... I think I will take a bath," she said to Nanny Gong. Certainly, it was because of her allergy flaring up and nothing more than that. That's right, it must be because of her allergy.

She jumped down from the bed and rushed to the bathing house.

Nanny Gong watched Liu Hui Ying rush to the bathhouse as if she was being chased by something and did not know what to say. Why was her missy acting like such? Did something happen? What did she dream when she just took a short nap?

The poor old woman was worried as she could no longer understand her missy's tantrums.

Inside the bathhouse, Liu Hui Ying was standing behind the door with her hands stretched out at the back of the door. She was breathing harshly with a furious blush scattered all over her face. No, she must have thought of something else just now… that was just a coincidence and nothing else.

' All right, Hui Ying calm down. You have nothing to worry about anything most probably it is your head playing with you,' Liu Hui Ying told herself as she tried to calm her frantically beating heart. She patted her chest two to three times before exhaling.

Once she was calm enough, Liu Hui Ying took off her outer robes followed by the inner robe until she was only left with a single translucent layer that she wore to take a bath.

Liu Hui Ying stepped inside the wooden bathtub which was filled with warm water that Nanny Gong had arranged after much trouble. As other servants were refusing to hand it over, in their eyes she was a discarded Empress and did not deserve anything good.

' Once I am out of here, I am sending the ghosts to haunt those bastards,' Liu Hui Ying was nothing but petty when it came to someone causing her discomfort and those servants had caused her more than just discomfort.

As Liu Hui Ying stepped inside the bathtub she felt warmth searing as hot flickering coals coursed through her skin but she did not care about it as she liked her water a bit hotter.

She sat down with her arms resting on either side of the tub and leaned her head on the edge of the bathtub. Well, at least now she was done with the case and soon she would be out of this dilapidated palace, this could be taken as a good sign.

" Ah finally, I can rest in ease," Liu Hui Ying muttered as she closed her eyes and she relished the warmth that was spreading all over her body.

" Are you enjoying this?" She heard someone speak from the side, maybe it was because of the heat that was getting in her head but Liu Hui Ying felt a bit muddle-headed and hummed, " It feels nice."

However, after a short while, Liu Hui Ying felt that something was wrong. She was inside the bathtub with nothing but a translucent inner dress and secondly, that voice surely did not belong to a woman.

It belonged to a man.

A man was inside the bathtub with her.

Liu Hui Ying's eyes flew open as she turned to look at none other than Zhai Tianyu who was sitting next to her. His elbow was resting on the edge of the bathtub while he was using the palm of the same hand to rest his head on it.

His lips were curled in a seductive smile as he looked at her causing Liu Hui Ying to cough out.

" Wh…what are you doing here?" Liu Hui Ying questioned as she covered her body with her hands. However, with her assets slowly growing, two of her hands were too small to cover them.

Her actions brought a smile to Zhai Tianyu's face as he looked at Liu Hui Ying. He swam closer to Liu Hui Ying when he saw that she was swimming away from him, he reached out and clasped her nape. His fingers brushed against the small hair which often stood up when Liu Hui Ying was excited or nervous just like right now.

She felt Zhai Tianyu pull closer to her as his face etched so close to hers that Liu Hui Ying could feel his warm breath skim over her skin. With his lips inches away from her, he whispered, "What do you think I am doing?"
