As she ran, the golden butterflies in her hair seemed to spread their wings and fly.
"Princess, Princess, can I go with you?" The little girl looked no more than twelve or thirteen years old. Her face was covered with a thin blush because she ran so fast. Her eyes were bright as she looked at Shen Xihe.
"No." Shen Xihe refused heartlessly.
The little girl was not hurt at all and still smiled very cutely: "I promise, I will be very good and not disturb you. I... I just want to be with you, and I don't like to be with them."
His big, blinking eyes stared at Shen Xihe pitifully, making him look like a short-lived creature at home who wanted to eat fish.
Shen Xihe did not drive her away. She found a place to sit down and waited for Bu Shulin to come find her.
The little girl happily sat down next to Shen Xihe, holding her face with both hands, staring at Shen Xihe: "Sister Xihe, you are so beautiful..."
Biyu, who was following Shen Xihe, was speechless. This little girl was really good at taking advantage of others.
The one far away was Princess Zhaoning, and when she got closer, she was the Princess, and after she spoke a few words, she was Sister Xihe...
This was another little girl who was obsessed with the beauty of their princess. There were many little girls like this in the northwest, so Biyu was not surprised.
"Sister Xihe, I am the seventh daughter of the Xue family, my name is Jin Qiao." Xue Jin Qiao whispered, as if she was really afraid of disturbing her, "Jin means holding a jade in her arms, Qiao means Qiao of the Qiaomu family, and my nickname is Qiao Qiao."
"Qiao Qiao?" Shen Xihe called out with a chuckle.
"Hey." Xue Jinqiao responded crisply, his eyes seemed to be instantly filled with light, and he looked energetic.
Biyu didn't even look at them, and Xue Jinqiao's maid even lowered her head as if to bury it in her chest.
"I've got that in mind. I have an appointment." Shen Xihe politely asked the guest to leave.
"Hmm...ah?" Xue Jinqiao, who was completely mesmerized, nodded before she understood what Shen Xihe said. She opened her mouth, pouted a little aggrievedly, then stood up reluctantly, moving out, looking back every step of the way.
After moving out of the Moon Gate, he poked his head back and said, "Sister Xihe, can I...can I go to the Princess's Mansion to look for you? I will never disturb you, as long as I can see you..."
"No." Acting cute and coquettish has no effect on Shen Xihe, a woman with a heart of stone.
Xue Jinqiao walked away with a pout.
"Now I realize how good Sister Xihe is to me." Bu Shulin sighed as he came out from the rockery.
In the past, she always felt that Shen Xihe was not so friendly to her. But now, seeing such a cute little girl coming towards her with eager eyes, she felt a little softened. But Shen Xihe was indifferent. Only then did she realize how good Shen Xihe was to her by being willing to treat her with tea.
"You are more useful than her." Shen Xihe replied mercilessly.
Bu Shulin: …
The implication is that if she wasn't useful, she would have been treated like this
Unexpectedly, Shen Xihe added: "If you are not useful and sensible, Huangzhong Temple will be a lesson for you."
Bu Shulin: “!!!”
So she was treated much worse than this little beauty.
Suddenly, the poisoning incident at the Luoyang Inn came to her mind again...
Biyu covered her lips and laughed secretly. Their princess just liked to tease Prince Bu.
When Bu Shulin saw Biyu smile, she knew that Shen Xihe was teasing her on purpose. In fact, they were all wrong, as Shen Xihe was telling the truth.
