As evening approached, the Empress dowager sent a servant to inform that she is ill and so would not be attending the welcome banquet. When Lei Xing heard this, she snickered as she thought of the Empress dowager still brooding over her assault from the morning.
{...Serves her right. She deserves to be whipped! Hahahahahaha...}
{...*It's not funny -_-)...}
{...I have every right to laugh at her misery so MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS!...}
{...*...}
Since the Empress dowager was not attending, the Imperial wives were now to meet at the Emperor's palace. Lei Xing's laughter quickly turned to a frown, she was not interested in going back there to re-live her embarrassment from the night before.
{...*Told you it wasn't funny...}
{...-_-)'...}
Without a choice in the matter, Lei Xing begrudgingly made her way to the Emperor's palace. When she arrived at the entrance, she took a deep breath to brace herself and walked in.
