"This stone is cold and not clean," the maid said anxiously.
"Then quickly go and call my maid!" Ushiha said. She wanted to send the maid away so she could wander around at her own pace; she simply didn't like sitting and chatting with those young ladies and princesses.
When the maid heard Wu Xiha say this, she had no idea about Wu Xiha's personality, so she had no choice but to agree and hurried off.
Ushiha was secretly pleased to see how easily she was fooled, but he still pretended to be genuinely uncomfortable.
After the maid had gone far away, Ushiha smiled and then went off alone in the opposite direction.
This wasn't Ushiha's first time visiting the Prince Chun's Mansion, so she knew how to get around.
Ushiha knew that there was a place called "Lotus Dock" in the backyard of the Prince Chun's Mansion, which was a place with excellent scenery.
Following his memory, Ushiha walked around the back courtyard of Prince Chun's mansion.
Lotus Pond is at the back, separated by a wall from the west courtyard where the male members of Prince Chun's Mansion lived.
When Ushiha arrived at Lotus Pond, he saw that most of the lotus leaves had withered, leaving only some rust-colored lotus pods and some dark green lotus leaves.
Although the lush greenery of midsummer is gone, there is still a sense of the deep, rich feeling of late summer.
In the lotus pond, red carp swayed their graceful tails amidst the withered lotus leaves.
Ushiha squatted down and picked up small stones from the ground to play with the fish in the water.
“Fish, fish, you are so free and unrestrained, unlike me, who is kept in seclusion every day and cannot come and go as I please,” Ushiha said as he threw pebbles into the small pond.
"hehe!"
A low chuckle came from somewhere.
The laughter was so sudden that Ushiha was startled. She stood up, looked around, and saw no one.
"Who is it!" Ushiha hissed angrily.
But the only answer she received was silence from the air; there wasn't a single person in sight.
"Since you have the guts to laugh, why don't you have the guts to come out?" Ushiha said, hands on his hips. "What's the point of just hiding in the shadows?"
"I didn't hide, you just didn't see it!" the voice came again.
Ushiha looked in the direction of the sound, but still couldn't find anyone.
Ushiha rubbed his eyes hard and looked around again, but still couldn't find anyone.
Damn it! Did they realize the other person was invisible?
Ushi-ha was practically going crazy, as if he couldn't even see people anymore?
"Hey, where are you hiding?" Ushiha said angrily.
"I never expected that Prince Yong's fourth princess would be so blind!" That hateful voice rang out again.
Ushiha was so angry that he stood there and turned around, but still couldn't find that person.
"Princess!"
"Princess!"
Just then, a call came from afar.
Ushiha listened and realized someone had come looking for her, so she stamped her foot and turned back. She was furious with the person who had been hiding in the shadows and mocking her, but since someone had come looking for her, she had no choice but to leave immediately.
“You’d better never show your face in front of me again,” Ushiha said.
"Since that's the case, then you can meet him now!" The voice rang out again, and suddenly a green figure floated down from a big tree.
Ushiha stared in disbelief. It turned out that the person was wearing clothes that were almost the same color as the leaves, which was why Ushiha hadn't seen him.
When Ushiha saw his appearance clearly, he was even more surprised!
