Veiled Love - Chapter 22 Stunning Shock

Surprised at the crown princess’s command, the head Eunuch looked at the king for confirmation. With a small the nod from the king, the head eunuch carried out the orders. Soon the quiet, massive room had the confidants of the crown princess and the king. Food was served the correct parties tasted the foods before placing them in front of the king and crown princess.

Yumo, Jin Ae and Yoo Jung were sitting close to Soo Jin and on the king’s side the captain, vice-captain and the head eunuch were sitting. The rest of the maid servants and eunuchs were sitting in their designated places. Two soldiers were by the door guarding.

As everyone started to eat, Soo Jin elegantly took off her veil. Everyone who was busy chatting and eat stopped doing what they were doing and look at her. They all sucked in a deep breath as they were hit by a stunning shock.

It wasn’t like they haven’t see a beautiful woman before, but she is not someone that the word beautiful is even adequately to describe as. Her type of beauty did not exist in this world, her type of beauty was the kind of beauty that can make a person forget oneself. If the stars fell because of her and if the moon lost its shine because of her they wouldn’t be surprised.

“She is truly breath-taking.” Whispered the Captain. Hearing what the captain said, the head eunuch elbowed him the stomach.

“Be careful with your eyes and words. She is our future queen.” warned the head eunuch. Hearing the head eunuchs warning, the captain realised that he had spoken his thoughts.

Noticing everyone’s attention is no longer on their food but on his daughter-in law, the king instantly became upset. His son would like these men ogling his wife, that stupid boy is busy doing useless things rather than being here and claiming his stake.

“Okay, enough. Continue eating. We will need to move on soon.” Said the king firmly. Everyone immediately but reluctantly pulled their greedy gaze from the beautiful swan.

Once everyone was done eating. They made their way outside and joined the festivities, they all managed to enjoy their day out.

Everyone had the chance to write their wish on their lanterns and fly it deep into the night.

Back in the palace, Soo Jin had gotten ready for bed. She was laying on her futon smiling happily, she wanted to think about all the crazy and fun things she had done today but she was so exhausted that she fell asleep immediately.
