Chapter 863 She Was Heartbroken (Part One)
Lilian''s sudden arrival startled Sean. He was just about to check up on Harper and Rndo when he
was met by her cold stare.
Ever since Lilian came to Great Jade Kingdom, she had always been gentle, kind and friendly. She had
never been so cold and fierce, and because of that, Sean couldn''t help but feel a little shocked and
intimidated. But then he remembered that Rndo and Harper were just friends and there was nothing
to hide for them. With that, he immediately made way for Lilian.
There was nothing more than chatting, drinking tea, and ying the zither that was happening in the
room that Rndo and Harper were in. Rndo fully knew what would happen if he wouldn''t be able to
control himself in front of Harper. Thus, even though he loved her so, so much, he wouldn''t show it to
her or anyone else. As an emperor, it was almost a given that he would be surrounded by beautiful girls
and Lilian wouldn''t have a say in it.
Lilian stood by the door, carefully eyeing the two people inside. Thedy was making tea leisurely and
gracefully with her skillful hands, while the man was ying the zither, his eyes full of intense emotions.
If an outsider saw them like this, he or she would definitely think that they were a couple who were in
paradise. It was exactly because of this that Lilian could not enjoy this otherwise beautiful moment—all
she was thinking of doing was pouring hot, scalding tea on Harper''s face.
Despite this, Lilian didn''t move. It wasn''t because she was unwilling to, but because she just didn''t
have the ability to. She was overwhelmed with so much hatred that she could feel every bone in her
body shaking with anger. Before she came to the Harmony Pce, she didn''t entertain it, but now that
she was seeing what was happening with her own two eyes, she knew that Harper was the woman
Rndo was pining for!
As the steam of the hot tea floated in the air, filling the room with the aroma of brewed tea leaves,
Rndo stopped ying. Harper put a cup in front of him and said, "Here you go. I made it in the way
you like."
Rndo picked the cup up and put it in his mouth. Slowly, he sipped its contents, savoring its taste like
it was thest cup of tea he would ever taste. A satisfied smile then appeared on his lips. "After
drinking this, I''m afraid that any other tea brewed by others wouldn''t taste as good."
Harper smiled. "The music you yed is incredible as well. I haven''t heard it before, though. What''s its
name?"

"It''s my ownposition, and I haven''t named it yet. I couldn''t think of a name fitting for it, actually.
Maybe you can help me? Try naming it," Rndo said serenely.
Before Harper replied, a voice came. "Hmm. For me, it should be named ''Lovesick''. What do you
think?" The sudden voice was from Lilian, her tone angry and bitter, breaking the peaceful atmosphere
of the room. Rndo visibly frowned the moment he heard Lilian''s voice, as if he was unhappy to be
disturbed by her. Lilian then added, "Your Majesty. What do you think?"
Rndo didn''t answer, but he kept his eyes on the unexpected intruder. Harper was surprised, but she
didn''t think too much of Lilian''s sudden appearance. Instead, she continued on pondering about the title
of Rndo''s newestposition. "But then if you title it Lovesick, it should have been much, much
sadder. This one doesn''t sound sad at all. It sounds..."
"Happy, like the one who made it finally finds what he''s been looking for after a long, long time," Lilian
said, smiling forcibly. "Your Majesty, it seems like you are in a good mood today. I''ve heard you y
that piece of music so many times, but this is the first time that you have yed it so peacefully and
contentedly."
While Rndo still kept calm, his eyes had already gone cold. "Lilian, isn''t it sote? Why haven''t you
gone to bed? And it seems like you don''t have a cloak with you. The night is cold, so you should
always keep yourself warm whenever you go out. You should take better care of yourself. After all, you
are now carrying our child."
Lilian lowered her head and touched her abdomen unconsciously. Somehow, she had forgotten that
there was life growing inside her—her and Rndo''s child!
She raised her head and looked at Rndo. He was a handsome, gentle, and overall outstanding man.
He was an emperor of an entire country, for God''s sake! There would be an unlimited number of
women around him in the future, just like her father. One would rece another, which would end up
being reced by another. She would never have him all by herself.
"Your Majesty, are you going to sleep at the Bliss Pce tonight?" Lilian asked. She intentionally asked
Rndo this question in front of Harper to make him realize who his woman was between her and
Harper. In thiste evening, he should be with her, the one who would be his empress, and not
some other female!
"You''re still pregnant, Lilian, so you wouldn''t be able to do anything for me. Because of that, I''m still
going to sleep in the Dragon Pce." While Rndo''s voice didn''t betray any of his true emotions,
Lilian knew for sure that he was really unhappy about her and about what was currently happening.
Unfortunately for him, she didn''t care and was unwilling to leave. After taking in a deep breath, she
approached Rndo and held onto his arm as if she was a spoiled queen demanding attention from
her king.
"Your Majesty, please keep mepany tonight. I want you to be by my side when I wake up tomorrow
morning," she said in an overly sweet tone.
Right after seeing this, Harper smiled widely and waved her hand. "Oh my God, look at her. Go, go with
her, Rndo. I can''t stand you two being this lovey-dovey in front of me."
Rndo was a little stiff as he still wasn''t used to Lilian''s touch. It was a good thing that he had enough
self-control that he was able to refrain himself from suddenly pushing her away. "Have a good rest
then, Harper. I know what happened today shook you up a bit so before we part, I wanted to apologize.
I also didn''t expect that Lilian would demandpany from me tonight, so I''ll send her back."
"It''s nothing! Send her back. It''s getting colder by the minute and no one wants her and the baby to
catch cold." Harper smiled innocently. On the other hand, bewilderment appeared in Lilian''s eyes. Was
it unrequited love? Was Rndo in love with Harper, but Harper didn''t have the same feelings for him?
Or did she just not know his true feelings for her?
