Chapter 30 A Scoundrel Who Seduced Someone and Then Irresponsible

"...Master Yun made it very clear."

Is that what you mean?

Is that what he meant?

Mu Ze doubted himself for a moment, then forced a smile and said, "It's because my comprehension is too poor."

Master Yun said that once you enter her room, you belong to her?

Does Your Highness agree to this?

"No doubt about it."

Yun Si, with a good temper, smiled and affirmed, "The meaning that Chief Shepherd understands is exactly what I mean."

Mu Ze: "...Huh? Oh."

Seeing the smile on Yun Si's face, for some reason, Mu Ze felt that it would have been better to say those harsh words to her with a cold face like before. At least then, he wouldn't feel this way, with his heart pounding.

"Well... I'd better inform Your Highness before making any further plans?"

"Can."

Yun Si was very easy to talk to and immediately agreed: "Go."

Mu Ze felt a great weight lifted off his shoulders.

He got up and left, but for Yun Si's safety, he left a few guards to watch over her.

Yun Si didn't mind and let them guard her as they pleased, but they couldn't stay inside the courtyard.

Otherwise, it will frighten the little monster.

“Master.”

After the guards had all withdrawn outside the courtyard, Lan Xin and Lu Yu came out from the side. The two were apprehensive and looked around cautiously before walking to Yun Si's side.

"Master, are you really going to keep the little monster by your side?"

There was worry in Lu Yu's eyes.

That's a monster. If we keep her around, will she listen to us?

Lan Xin felt a chill run down her spine when she heard Yun Si's decision: "Master, don't scare me."

"She's not that scary."

Yun Si was helpless, but she comforted them, "Trust me, go and prepare hot water, prepare plenty, and also scissors and clothes."

Lu Yu and Lan Xin exchanged a glance. Despite their unease, they obediently went to prepare the things.

After everyone had left, Yun Si got up and carried the remaining pastries from the stone table to her room.

“Yun Si”.

Qin Ye's voice suddenly came from behind.

He seemed to have arrived in a great hurry.

He was breathing heavily.

"Didn't you go to the Ministry of War?"

Yun Si was surprised.

Mu Ze even went to great lengths to bring him back because of this?

"Is he inside?"

Qin Ye strode towards Yun Si, looking at her intently: "Are you sure there's no danger?"

"Your Highness, look at you, you're covered in sweat."

Yun Si pulled him to sit down at the stone table, took out a handkerchief from her pocket, and gently wiped the fine sweat from his forehead: "In such hot weather, you rushed back in such a hurry..."

Qin Ye grabbed her wrist and looked at her handkerchief.

A white swan is embroidered on the snow-white soft cloth.

Lifelike.

"Did you embroider this?"

Yun Si paused for a moment before realizing that he was asking about the white swan on the handkerchief.

"Oh...no."

Although she didn't know how he had jumped to the topic of handkerchiefs, it didn't stop Yun Si from feeling slightly embarrassed.

“This was embroidered by Lu Yu.”

She said somewhat embarrassedly, "When I was little, I learned everything quickly, except for needlework. Embroidering these things was too difficult for me. I tried to embroider a handkerchief, also with a white swan, but it was a little uglier than this. Unfortunately, I lost it."

Are you sure?

Qin Ye stared into her eyes: "Are you sure the handkerchief you lost was only slightly uglier than this one, and you're sure it was also a white swan?"

This person is acting strangely today.

Yun Si felt a little guilty after his question, but she still nodded firmly: "Of course."

Anyway, he's never seen it before, so why should he feel guilty?

That handkerchief was embroidered when she was fifteen. She only embroidered one, and it was indeed... a bit ugly. She originally wanted to keep it as a souvenir, but she doesn't know where she lost it.

She was self-aware, and later all the embroidery was done by Lu Yu.

The two purses given to Shen Qian were also embroidered by Lu Yu, something Shen Qian probably still doesn't know.

Qin Ye suddenly smiled, and in that instant, the world seemed to lose its color.

He laughed, and then delivered the decisive blow.

Yun Si's heart pounded.

"so."

Qin Ye pulled her into his arms and made her sit directly on his lap: "Was that handkerchief your first and last embroidery?"

Yun Si froze, then nodded blankly, "Mm."

"Shen Qian's purse..."

“It was embroidered by Lu Yu.”

Upon hearing this, Yun Si clearly sensed a hint of amusement flash in Qin Ye's eyes.

He held Yun Si's slender waist tightly, pressing her close to his chest.

The scorching heat seeped through the thin fabric, causing Yun Si's face to flush uncontrollably.

What are you doing?

Yun Si gently pushed him.

It's broad daylight, and there are still many guards outside.

Qin Ye's Adam's apple bobbed, and a hint of restraint flashed in his deep eyes.

It's been so hot lately.

He felt that his self-control was getting worse and worse.

“Yun Si”.

Qin Ye looked down at her and pulled her closer to him again.

Perhaps it was because the fabric of the clothes was too thin that he could feel her softness so clearly, pressed against his hard chest.

"Don't wear such thin clothes in the future."

A scoundrel who seduces people and then doesn't take responsibility.

"What?"

Yun Si was completely confused by his words.

In this sweltering heat, if I don't wear thin clothes, am I supposed to wear thick ones?

Qin Ye picked up the tea that Yun Si had left on the stone table and drank it all in one gulp.

Sweat beaded on his forehead once again.

It seems there are more than before.

Yun Si found it strange.

Is it really that hot as they sit under the shade of a tree?

However, his body was quite hot.

Yun Si stepped back to create some distance and gently wiped the sweat from his forehead and face with her handkerchief again.

"Your Highness."

She got back to the point: "If you're worried, you can sit here and watch, but whatever you do, don't come in, lest you startle her and she runs away, and then no one can catch her."

Qin Ye released Yun Si, but his eyes remained fixed on her: "Hmm."

That look gave Yun Si a strange feeling.

He wanted to...eat her.

This illusion made Yun Si's face burn even hotter.

That's really strange.

In the past, when she took the initiative to flirt with him, he didn't react at all and could ruthlessly push her away. Now that she hasn't done anything, he seems to want to devour her at any moment.

Yun Si patted her face to calm herself down quickly.

The important matter is the priority.

Yun Si served the pastries again and walked towards her room.

She knocked first and asked into the room, "May I come in?"

Naturally, there was no way there would be any response.

"Okay, I'm coming in now."

Yun Si gently pushed open the door, entered the room, gave Qin Ye a reassuring look, and then closed the door.

Turning around, I realized that the little monster hadn't hidden at all.

Instead, he was sitting in the corner of the room, holding the plate of pastries he had snatched from Yun Si, and enjoying them bite by bite.

After finishing the last piece, she looked up at Yun Si.

Her face was still as dirty as before, and her original features were almost unrecognizable, except for her eyes, which were exceptionally bright.

Yun Si walked towards her, but she neither ran away nor moved.

She seemed to have some kind of trust in Yun Si.

"Follow me, and you can stay in the Prince's mansion openly and honestly. You can eat whatever you want, as much as you want. I guarantee that no one will ever arrest or kick you out again."

Yun Si crouched down, meeting her gaze: "How is it?"

As he spoke, he placed the pastries in front of her.

This time, she didn't rush to get the pastries; instead, she stared at Yun Si for a long time.

Yun Si wasn't in a hurry and patiently let her see.

"I don't know why, but I feel like we're destined to meet. I know you may have experienced a lot of bad things in the past, so you're not willing to trust others easily. That's okay, I'll give you time. You can try to feel it slowly."

After she finished speaking, the girl suddenly held up a finger at her.

Yun Si glanced at her dark, grimy finger and quickly understood what she meant.

Extend your own fingers as well.

Their fingertips touched lightly, and the girl suddenly grinned.

Does this mean you've agreed?

Yun Si hooked her little black hand around hers and asked for her opinion: "Shall we take a bath?"

For the first time ever, the girl nodded to Yun Si.

Yun Si didn't expect her to be so obedient. She thought it would take a lot of effort, but she got it done with just one sentence.

Just then, Lu Yu and Lan Xin had also prepared the hot water.

Yun Si opened the door and pulled the disheveled girl out. In the courtyard, Lu Yu and Lan Xin immediately stood up straight.

Qin Ye also stood up from his chair, his expression unchanged, seemingly not surprised at all.

Hearing the commotion, Mu Ze and his guards rushed in from outside. When they saw what was happening, they were so shocked that their eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

Um... what the heck? He actually let Master Yun pull him along obediently?

magic!

Yun Si led the girl to an empty room with a huge bathtub inside.

This bath lasted for two or three hours.

We changed the bathwater more than a dozen times.

Fortunately, Mu Ze and the others were there. They were in charge of carrying and pouring water, while Lan Xin and Lu Yu helped with the washing.

At first, they were a little scared, but when they saw that Yun Si was going to do it herself, the two of them refused.

Let the master personally bathe this little monster?

Absolutely not.

However, they couldn't manage to fix the tangled hair, so Yun Si ended up fixing it for them.

For areas that are difficult to comb, just use scissors.

The swift and decisive action made Lu Yu and Lan Xin's hearts skip a beat.

They were afraid that the little monster might turn around and swat them with its claws if it got upset.

The result was completely unexpected for them.

The little monster cooperated throughout, raising its hand when told to raise its hand and its leg when told to raise its leg.

Their obedience is simply unbelievable.

What's even more shocking is that the little monster, after being cleaned, looks completely different from what they imagined.

What little monster? That's clearly a pretty little girl.

She looked to be no more than sixteen or seventeen years old. Apart from her slightly rough skin and thin frame, her clean face was exceptionally beautiful.

She's a bit aloof, and a bit silly.

The strange combination of aloofness and silliness makes him look blank and silly, like a simpleton.

At that moment, Lanxin and Lu Yu suddenly stopped being afraid.

After washing her clean, I dressed her in new clothes.

Just right.

Yun Si pulled her outside, where a large crowd was waiting to see.

Even Granny Qian and the head chef came over when they heard the news, wanting to see who this little thief who had caused such a commotion in the Prince's mansion was.

"Don't be afraid."

There were too many people outside, and Yun Si was worried that they would frighten her. Before taking her out, she gently reassured her, "They mean no harm. They are just curious about you. And with me here, I won't let anyone bully you."

The girl stared straight at Yun Si, then lowered her head.

Lansing and Lu Yu couldn't help but laugh when they saw this.

How could you be so stupid?

They're kind of cute, aren't they?

In the courtyard, a group of people waited expectantly.

The moment the door opened, everyone's eyes turned to it.

Then, a chorus of exclamations arose.

"No way?"

"My God, is this really the same person?"
