Lin Xi landed steadily on the eaves with the person in his arms, his arms around Su Jinge's waist, his face looking for praise, "How was it? Was it fun?"
"Yeah, it's fun."
Su Jinge was still a little reluctant to leave, with a hint of joy in her voice. She nestled in Lin Xi's arms and blinked.
In Chaoge Kingdom, she either learned music, chess, calligraphy and painting, or learned the rules, and had never done anything so extraordinary. It was so exciting, and she liked it so much.
Lin Xi tapped his toes lightly, jumped down from the eaves holding the person, and entered the backyard.
"As long as you like it, we've played for a long time today. It's time to rest. I'll take you out to play another day."
There was a smile in her voice. She bent down, lowered her eyes and spoke gently. The girl's excited smile was reflected in her dark and deep eyes.
Su Jinge nodded, probably feeling that she had lost her composure tonight. Her eyes were a little vague, and she stood up straight.
"Cough cough——" The cough was accompanied by a low laugh. Lin Xi put his fingers against his lips and pulled the corners of his mouth. Why did he like this little look of trying to cover up something but making it more obvious?
Jinyuan.
Zhi'er and Xin'er heard footsteps, looked into the yard, and saw two people walking towards them side by side.
"General, ma'am."
"Yeah." Lin Xi nodded slightly. In front of outsiders, he turned back into the serious-looking general.
However, the hand under his sleeve was still tightly holding Su Jinge, which was completely inconsistent with his cold appearance.
Lin Xi asked someone to bring hot water. Lida helped Su Jinge take a bath and asked Zhier and Xiner to wait outside.
"Madam, you look very different today than usual."
While gently kneading Su Jinge's shoulders, Lida looked at her with curiosity and inquiry, with an obvious glint of gossip in her eyes.
Su Jinge's eyes flickered, then he regained his composure, "What's the difference?"
She washed her arms slowly, waiting for Lida's answer.
Lida dragged out a long 'hmm' and said, "There's joy in his eyes, and his behavior isn't as restrained as before. It's like he has his own thoughts now."
She didn't notice Su Jinge's paused hand, and after a moment's thought, she continued, "In the past, the princess always listened to whatever the queen said, and didn't care about Princess Mingzhu's behavior. She had a kind of detached beauty, but standing with the general tonight, it feels even more real."
Lida scratched her head. She didn't know if it was right to say that, but that was her general feeling anyway.
Su Jinge's eyelashes drooped slightly, and she smiled with pursed lips, "Lida, when did you become so good at writing and eloquent?"
Lida giggled twice and wiped Su Jinge's body as he came out of the bathtub.
Crystal clear water droplets hang on her skin, which is as white as mutton-fat jade. Her skin is so delicate and smooth that it seems as if water can be squeezed out of it.
Lida wiped her body carefully and attentively, then quickly took a soft and comfortable nightgown from the hanger beside her and put it on her carefully.
Su Jinge's still wet hair was draped behind her. When she walked out, she saw Lin Xi sitting in front of the dressing table. He was still holding the hairpin he bought for her when they first met.
Hearing footsteps, he turned his head to look at Su Jinge.
"General, Madam, I will withdraw first."
Lida looked around at the two of them, then walked out discreetly, closing the door tightly.
Lin Xi slowly stood up and walked to Su Jinge's side. His eyes inadvertently fell on Su Jinge's wet hair. Then he stretched out his hand and used his deep internal strength to gently brush it past.
