"That's it..." Xiao Guai was also a little worried. "Minghe, if he goes to the capital, will he really take you with him?"
Minghe: "If you refuse to take me with you, then we'll be in trouble."
As they were talking, a young man pushed open the door and entered without saying a word.
Minghe turned around and saw the boy backlit.
At the same time, the boy also saw him.
For a moment, they froze, neither of them saying anything.
Minghe broke the silence, exclaiming with delight, "Young Master! You're finally back!"
Xu Jingying paused for a moment, as if he found this servant somewhat strange.
Minghe had already run towards him, blinking her eyes as she ran. When she reached Xu Jingyingzi, tears were already streaming down her face.
Xiao Guai stared wide-eyed in shock.
Xu Jingying looked at Minghe with a hint of suspicion in his eyes.
Xu Jingying rubbed her eyes, sniffed, and then smiled, her little face glowing, and said, "I've already boiled the water, you should go take a bath and change!"
Xu Jingying looked at Minghe, his lips pressed tightly together in a cold expression.
He had already forgotten about this person when he agreed to stay.
Seeing this person again suddenly reminded me of what happened three years ago.
But why...?
Why is this kid so excited and happy to see him now, even though he treated him that way back then?
“You…” Xu Jingying squinted at him.
As Minghe helped him undress, she said, "Young Master, you haven't been back for three years. I thought I would never see you again in this lifetime."
With his clothes pulled down, Xu Jingying said in a voice that couldn't hide his indifference, "It's been three years already, and you've still been staying in the Xu residence?"
“Young Master, what are you saying?” Minghe said discontentedly, “I am your servant. Unless you take me with you, how can I leave the Xu residence!”
As she spoke, Minghe's eyes reddened again.
"If it weren't for you pleading with the master back then, I'm afraid I would have died long ago."
"Over the years, no one in the household has ever bullied me out of respect for you, and I've been paid my wages every month as usual. I've been living quite well all these years!"
"It's just that this servant can't see you and misses you so much..."
I miss him...
Xu Jingying looked at Minghe with indifference, finding him both somewhat amusing and quite interesting.
Some memories of this servant, which were originally somewhat hazy, are now beginning to resurface in my mind.
Xu Jingying let Minghe serve him. After he comfortably sat down in the bathtub, he looked at the young man, who was covered in sweat from serving him, and tapped his fingers on the tub.
The boy nowadays has fair skin and, although he doesn't have any feminine features, he can still be considered handsome.
Minghe noticed that he had been staring at her, and looked back at him with a smile in her eyes, asking, "Young Master, what are you doing that you've been staring at?"
Xu Jingying got out of the bathtub, and Minghe quickly went over to wipe his body, scrubbing him from head to toe, leaving no part untouched.
Xu Jingying looked at him and suddenly said, "You should go take a shower too."
Upon hearing this, Minghe even sniffed herself.
He didn't detect anything amiss, but he still readily agreed.
Xu Jingying put on her undergarments, then walked towards the bed and said, "Come over when you're done washing."
Minghe thought he had something to tell her, and didn't think much of it.
The fact that he's willing to order me around is a good thing; it just shows that he needs a lackey like me.
Minghe thought to herself that she must do her best.
After hurriedly finishing her bath, Minghe dressed and rushed to Gouzi.
Xu Jingying burst out laughing when she saw his anxious look.
Minghe looked puzzled and asked with a smile, "Young Master, what are you laughing at?"
“It’s nothing,” Xu Jingying stopped smiling and instead looked him up and down with his now somewhat sharp eyes, a hint of something unreadable in them. “Why are you wearing so much?”
"Huh?" Minghe didn't understand why he said that.
“Take off your clothes,” Xu Jingying said, making room for him. “Lie down.”
Minghe then realized something was wrong. He stood there, looking reserved, unsure of what to do.
Seeing his somewhat dazed expression, Xu Jingying casually asked, "What's wrong? Didn't we used to sleep together?"
Upon hearing this, Minghe realized she had been overthinking things, so she immediately listened to him, took off her clothes, and lay down.
Xu Jingying considerately covered him with the blanket, then hugged his waist and asked in a low voice, her breath warm, "Are you cold?"
Minghe chuckled and said, "It's not cold."
Xu Jingying looked at his carefree attitude and silently twitched the corner of her mouth.
The county magistrate was old-fashioned, and he was also an adopted son of the magistrate. To put it bluntly, he was just a guest and would never normally do those kinds of things there.
But a boy his age should be old enough to understand things.
He originally had no such intention, but now that he had returned to the Xu residence and met this servant, he thought to himself, why not try it out on this servant?
Thinking this, Xu Jingying hugged Minghe and kissed him on the eyes.
Minghe was slightly stunned. Just as she was about to struggle, Xu Jingying said domineeringly, "Don't move."
"..."
The awkwardness of youth is vividly displayed in Xu Jingying.
Minghe loosened her grip and let him do as he pleased.
Xu Jingying liked his obedience and gentleness, and treated him quite gently. Afterwards, she kissed him lightly and said, "You are such an obedient servant."
Minghe remained silent.
After Xu Jingying fell asleep, Minghe got up to tidy herself up.
Xiao Guai said with some difficulty in explaining, "...Minghe, how could you give in to him so easily? Let me tell you! People don't cherish things that are too easily obtained!"
"Huh?" Minghe felt uncomfortable and her voice was weak. "Why would I need his appreciation? I'm not trying to date him."
Little Darling: "..."
“As for being a servant,” Minghe said, groaning as she stood up and clutching her waist, “all I need to do is listen to him, keep him happy, and have him keep me by his side so I can easily complete my tasks.”
Xiao Guai didn't know what to say.
Having tasted the sweetness of love, the young man spent the last few days at the Xu residence dragging Minghe out for a tryst every day. He even became somewhat more rational and started acting inappropriately, and within just a few days, some gossip began to circulate among the servants of the mansion.
