Chapter 41: Being rejected by the little milk bag

She's really going crazy.

I dare not even think about it.

"Why did Master Qi suddenly ask me this?"

There was something wrong with the Seventh Master tonight. The way he looked at her was not as calm as before, but rather had a bit more heat.

It can’t be…

Shen Yuanhao's eyes moved slightly, and seeing her nervously clenching her hands, the smile on the corner of his mouth rose a little bit. He was a straightforward person. Since he knew about this, he would not beat around the bush and would rather point it out directly.

"Moonlight, are you pleased with me?"

boom--

This sentence made Ye Yuese's mind go blank. Looking at Shen Yuanhao's meaningful smile, her whole body was stiff and nervous, but her expression remained calm.

"I don't dare."

It’s not that I’m not happy, but that I don’t dare?

Shen Yuanhao's turbulent emotions gradually subsided. Unsatisfied with this answer, his voice sank several degrees: "Tell the truth."

"I'm telling the truth."

Shen Yuanhao sighed and stopped forcing her: "Okay, go back and rest."

"yes."

Ye Yuese pursed her lips tightly and turned to leave.

**

The next day.

When she got up, she saw two girls standing in the yard.

"This servant has met Miss Yuese."

When the two maids saw her, they bowed quickly.

Shen Yuanhao didn't like maids serving him, and there would be no maids in the yard. Today...

Ye Yuese's face looked a little ugly.

"Why are you here?"

"In reply to Miss Yuese, it was Master Qi who transferred this servant here, saying that we would be responsible for serving the young lady in the future."

Upon hearing this, the pounding sensation in my heart, as if someone was banging their head against a wall, disappeared instantly.

She breathed a sigh of relief and said softly, "I can take care of myself. You two can go back first."

She is already living under someone else's roof, how can she expect anyone to take care of her?

The two maids stood still and saluted her in unison: "This is the order of the Seventh Master. Please don't let us go, young lady."

Night Moon: "..."

At noon, when Shen Yuanhao returned from the palace, he saw a figure standing under a plum tree in a daze.

"What are you thinking about?"

He walked over and stood beside her.

Ye Yuese heard the voice and looked at him sideways. He was dressed in black court robes and looked so majestic and handsome.

She calmed down, retracted her gaze, and asked softly, "Why did Master Qi transfer two maids here?"

"Well, if I go out to do something, and you're the only one in the garden, they'll stay to take care of you and keep you company."

Ye Yuese felt warm in her heart, but she was also aware of her situation. "I can take care of myself. I am here to take care of Master Qi. It is not appropriate to let others take care of me."

"Don't worry, no one will gossip about you."

As a princess of the imperial family, even if she is a phoenix in trouble, she should not humiliate herself. She should still be the phoenix of the nine heavens.

“That’s inappropriate.”

If she is not allowed to take care of it, what reason does she have to stay in the Duke's Mansion?

"If you feel uncomfortable here, I have a house outside where I can accommodate you."

Ye Yuese's heart tightened, and she clenched her fists and asked in a hoarse voice, "Seventh Master, do you want me gone?"

Shen Yuanhao shook his head: "Why wouldn't I want you? Don't let your imagination run wild. I'll take you to see Xiao Wan'er first."

Under Ye Seyue's shocked and astonished gaze, Shen Yuanhao stretched out his fingertips and passed them through her fingers. The two of them clasped their fingers together and walked out holding her hand.

Their palms touched each other, and the warmth from his palms was transmitted. It was as if the warmth seeped into the blood vessels and spread to every part of the body little by little.

Ye Yuese was petrified for a moment, his thoughts frozen, staring blankly at the clenched hands.

"Why don't you resist?" Shen Yuanhao looked at her nervous and uneasy appearance, a smile in his eyes.

Ye Yuese finally reacted, took a deep breath, and after calming down his fluttering heart, he quickly pulled his hand back: "Seventh Master, please let go first."

If someone saw it, what would others think?

"good."

Shen Yuanhao was afraid of pushing the rabbit into a corner, so he let go of her hand.

East Garden.

"Duke, Madam, Master Qi has brought Miss Yuese to the front yard. He said he wants Miss Yuese to see the young lady."

Shen Yuanhong uttered a "huh" as the abacus beads from Old Seven hit him in the face.

He didn't just come to see Xiao Wan'er. It was obvious that he knew Xiao Wan'er's medical skills and wanted to bring her here to try and see if Xiao Wan'er could cure Ye Yuese's face.

Tsk.

After Xiao Waner expressed her inner thoughts yesterday, it seemed like her meridians were opened up and she became enlightened.

It seems that he really cares about that girl, otherwise he wouldn't have brought her here.

"Okay, I'll carry Xiao Wan'er over there in a moment."

After sending the maid away, Madam Shen smiled repeatedly.

Lao Qi usually looks like a dull person, but I didn’t expect him to be so quick?

Xiao Wan'er had just woken up at this time and was still chewing her fingers listlessly.

"Xiao Wan'er, Uncle Qi is here with Miss Yuese, and he wants to see you."

Chen Wan stopped chewing her fingers, blinked her big eyes for a few seconds, then stretched out her hand to Chen's mother and said, "Ah, I want a hug."

[Okay, I want to see Sister Yuese too. Mother, remember to dress me nicely and wipe the saliva off my face.]

Madam Shen + Shen Yuanhong: “…”

"Mom will wash your face first, change your clothes, and then carry you over."

[My mother understands me best and knows that I love cleanliness.]

lobby.

Hearing the servants' greetings, Shen Yuanhao and Ye Yuese stood up immediately. Soon, Madam Shen and Duke Shen came in holding the child.

Duke Shen has always been majestic, but at this moment he is holding a child with a gentle look on his face. It is really hard to associate him with the god of war who kills enemies on the battlefield.

"Greetings to Duke Shen, and to Madam."

Ye Yuese bowed and saluted.

Madam Shen smiled and gave a fake hand: "Miss Yuese, there is no need to be polite. You are Lao Qi's friend, so you don't need to be polite in the future."

[Wow, that voice is so nice. Daddy, come hold me and let me see Sister Yuese. She's the future empress. I haven't even seen what an empress looks like.]

The couple: "..."

Look how anxious the little kid is.

Shen Yuanhong tried to act as naturally as possible, lifting the little baby in his arms a little higher so that she could see the masked woman as much as possible.

【Daddy, you hugged me so tightly that I couldn’t see.】

Your arm is blocking my view.

The old father, who was so despised, felt helpless.

He was afraid that if he lifted her too high, she would fall.

A god of war, who could go to court and fight on the battlefield, and was capable of plotting and scheming, was rejected even when he was holding a child.

Ye Yuese's eyes moved slightly. For some reason, she suddenly felt that the atmosphere in the hall became a little subtle?

"Brother, let me hug Xiaowan'er."

Shen Yuanhong narrowed his handsome eyes slightly, and after a meaningful warning flashed in his eyes, he reluctantly handed Xiao Wan'er to him.

Shen Yuanhao smiled awkwardly. His elder brother was a smart man and naturally knew what he was thinking. He also understood his intention of holding Xiao Wan'er.

The eldest brother was warning him just now.

If it happens next time, I’m afraid I won’t let him off.

He nodded and responded to Shen Yuanhong.

"Xiao Wan'er, Uncle Qi will introduce you to a sister."
