Chapter 125 Princess Hawthorne

Pei Xiangwan walked forward and looked back at the maid. She didn't even change her standing posture, and she couldn't see her smile clearly.

The road was not far, and soon she arrived at the door, reached out, grasped the door handle and pushed it open. Just as Alan said, the room was beautiful, with plenty of sunlight and a view of the dense forest and deep lake near the window.

Especially when there is sunshine, the deep lake is so clear that you can see how many stones people have thrown into it.

She didn't spend much time, after all, she was a guest. She called Jiang Shiyuan to let him know she was safe.

The other party picked up the call immediately, and before Pei Xiangwan could say anything, a sticky voice came from the other end.

"I miss you every night. I stared at my phone for a long time. I don't even know how long."

She complained coquettishly, and the listeners blushed.

"I…I'm sorry. I just arrived in Italy. I wanted to talk to you while I have some free time, but I don't have much."

Jiang Shiyuan grasped the key point and asked, "You are very busy, so go ahead and do your work. Then when are you free? I can wait for you."

Pei Xiangwan thought for a moment and replied, "In the evening."

The two chatted briefly and then the call ended. Pei Xiangwan quickly left the room and rushed to the maid.

"Sorry to have kept you waiting."

The maid smiled and shook her head in response, then led her to the long table. The maid turned around and returned to the team to work as if she had completed her mission.

Pei Xiangwan had never eaten at such a long table before. The dishes filled the entire table, and it was difficult to pick up food. Alan gestured for her to sit opposite him, which made her feel even more stressed.

After she sat down under the pressure, she was like a dummy and dared not move. Alan smiled and comforted her.

"Oh, Miss Pei, don't be nervous. I told you we will become friends. Try your luck. If you want something to eat, just ask the servant beside you."

The most common thing Pei Xiangwan said when she came here was thank you. She agreed with her mouth, but in fact she only dared to eat the dishes in front of her.

She wondered why there were only the two of them at the table, and the princess and queen were nowhere to be seen. However, since it was not within her jurisdiction, she suppressed her curiosity and continued eating.

Suddenly a maid ran over in a panic, her panting broke the silence, and Alan's face changed suddenly, not knowing what he heard.

"She wants fish, just give it to her."

What the maid wanted to say was interrupted by Alan, "Whatever, I have guests to entertain, give her whatever she wants."

But the maid looked embarrassed and refused to leave. He looked directly at Pei Xiangwan and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I have to leave for a while."

Without waiting for Pei Xiangwan to reply, Allen hurried away. Pei Xiangwan couldn't hear what the maid was saying while gesticulating. She returned her gaze to the food on the white plate.

Because the palace is so huge, it seems to divide two worlds, one side is quiet and peaceful, while the other side is experiencing the end of the world.

The maid's stammering narration angered Alan, who shouted, "Can't you speak?"

The maid couldn't bear the noble's anger and tried her best to control herself from stuttering.

"The princess wants to eat raw fish now. She's already eaten five. Raw fish is not healthy, but we can't stop her."

As those scenes appeared, Alan's face turned pale and his lips trembled. He looked like a good father who loved his daughter. He shouted weakly.

"Xiao Sang, you will be well tomorrow and you will have someone to play with."

The girl kneeling on the floor and gnawing on raw fish ignored him. The fishy smell filled the room. There were dried bloodstains on her scallion-white index finger, and new bloodstains were dripping onto her skirt.

The light blond hair was as sticky as its owner, and Alan helped to push it away while Hawthorne looked up at him.

Her face was dirty and messy, and if she didn't have the same green eyes as Allen, you wouldn't be able to tell that she was a princess.

…

The lake surface at night is very different from that during the day. Pei Xiangwan resolutely rejected Mo Xing's invitation to take a walk.

She returned to her room and tried to video call Jiang Shiyuan, but the call was picked up right after she made it.

"Wanwan."

After shouting, Jiang Shiyuan lay back on the bed, staring at Pei Xiangwan with eyes full of love.

Pei Xiangwan rubbed her ears awkwardly. She responded, "I'm here. Jiang Jiang, why don't you go celebrate with your friends? After all, you won such a big award, and your name is on the trending searches!"

Jiang Shiyuan was calm after hearing this, she said quietly.

"There's naturally nothing to celebrate when I have too much, and no one will celebrate for me. They think that things that don't challenge me are not worth encouraging or cherishing."

No matter how hard the outer shell is, the inner part is still a soft person who needs to be loved. Pei Xiangwan feels sorry for Jiang Shiyuan's experience, and she hopes that she will always be the one standing by Jiang Shiyuan's side.

She softly retorted Jiang Shiyuan's words, "It's not like no one will celebrate for you. I will celebrate for you."

Jiang Shiyuan laughed in silence. The broken light condensed into stars, which would only appear when the sun existed.

"Don't look at me like that. I'll be embarrassed, Jiang Jiang."

No one could look directly into those fox eyes, not even Pei Xiangwan. She blushed and surrendered.

There was a small gap in the undrawn curtains, and the silvery moonlight sneaked in. Pei Xiangwan had no time to pay attention.

The night was not lively. Pei Xiangwan listened quietly to Jiang Shiyuan's description of the competition process and interesting stories.

"Wanwan! Can we video chat every night from now on? I want to see you every day."

Pei Xiangwan knew the fox's stickiness. No matter how close or far the distance was, she had promised the other party, but she could not predict the future, and people would always break their promises.

…

There are many colorful flowers planted in the garden, and the gardener is pruning them to make them look better and to keep them alive.

The butterfly liked this so it planned to rest, but it was chased by someone. The girl ran awkwardly with her long and thick skirt lifted up, and the maid following behind her was exhausted and panting, shouting as she ran.

"Princess Princess! Princess stop! Stop."

The shrill and hoarse voice was like a rusty knife, without any threat. The girl ignored her and continued to chase her, her pink princess dress jumping up and down like a running cake.

She was never able to catch up. The butterfly flew higher and higher, and the high wall that bound her was easily escaped by the butterfly. Hawthorne stopped and the maid quickly braked.

"Princess, you can't do this. The king will be angry."

Hawthorne stared at the high wall in silence. She had intended to remain like that until the maid called out a name she was not familiar with, and curiosity drove her to turn her head.

"Respected Miss Pei."

Pei Xiangwan felt embarrassed when she was called that. She said, "You don't have to call me that. It's too weird. You can just call me by my name."

"This is the rule, honorable Miss Pei."

Pei Xiangwan didn't know what to say. The people here were like robots, only knowing how to complete the tasks input into their brains by their masters, repeating them day and night. For some reason, Pei Xiangwan felt a sense of sadness in his heart.

Will a person be happy if he loses his self, pursuits, and ideas?

Pei Xiangwan looked away but met another pair of eyes. The white beam of light illuminated the earth and also illuminated the man's eyes, like two round green jades, clean and clear.

"I... have seen... before."
