"Mr. Huo, what are you doing? Get out of here now, or I'll call for help," Zhao Shu scolded him in a low voice.
Huo Baichuan walked over like a thug, staring at her eye to eye. "Go ahead and shout, no one will come to save you even if you shout until you're hoarse."
Zhao Shu: ...shocked, "What did you do to Chu Chun?"
"That's strange. Why don't you ask what your dear cousin did to me? What would I, Huo Baichuan, need to do to a maid?" He rolled his eyes at Zhao Shu and sat down on the edge of the bed. "Are all the people in your Zhao family hungry wolves? While you were still unconscious, a group of princesses and noblewomen came, all claiming to be here to see you, but they kept getting close to me. By the way, your cousin Liuli is quite pretty, but she's too..." He thought for a while, "too proactive."
Zhao Shu: ...How come she didn't know that someone had come to see her? Xiao Guozi and the others didn't say anything either. However, what she didn't know was that Liuli and a group of princesses and noblewomen came to see her while she was unconscious under various pretexts, but they didn't even enter Qionghua Courtyard. Therefore, Xiao Guozi and the others were indignant and didn't report it. Anyway, the princesses and noblewomen came to see Mr. Huo.
"Mr. Huo, please don't change the subject. Please leave quickly. I have no interest in you," Zhao Shu said coldly. Even if Huo Baichuan was more handsome than a god in heaven, the fact that he broke into her boudoir was enough to prove that he was unreliable!
"You see me out," Huo Baichuan said.
"Where's Little Fatty?" Zhao Shu rolled her eyes; she'd never seen a man like this before.
Huo Baichuan shrugged. "Your cousin thought I was confessing my feelings."
Zhao Shu: "...Mr. Huo, do you always play with other people's feelings like this?"
"Heaven and earth bear witness, how could I, Huo Baichuan, be that kind of person? There are so many superficial people in this world, but who told me to be so good-looking? I always encounter oddballs, and your Zhao family happens to have the most oddballs."
"If you're not weird, why are you running into my bedroom?" Zhao Shu rolled her eyes at him several times, but it was dark and the effect was not good.
Both of them spoke in hushed tones. Zhao Shusheng was afraid that others would know that Huo Baichuan was in her room, and Huo Baichuan was afraid that others would know about his problem.
"You think I wanted to? I only did it because I felt sorry for you and wanted to avenge you. I just ended up in your yard by some strange twist of fate." He couldn't say that Xiao Guo had actually escorted him part of the way, but Xiao Guo had something to do, so he waved him away. After Xiao Guo left, he got lost again, inexplicably ending up in Zhao Shu's yard. He wandered around, completely unable to find his way out, and couldn't shout for help. Thinking of climbing a tree to see which way out, he unexpectedly found Zhao Shu…
"Mr. Huo, I'll respect you if you don't try to deny it." Zhao Shu coldly said, and was about to call Chu Chun in when Huo Baichuan covered her mouth with his hand.
"If you don't want your father to come back safely, then call him." Huo Baichuan said, then let go of her hand with a sense of relief. He walked to the opposite chaise lounge and threw the blanket on it to Zhao Shu. Not content with just throwing the blanket, he also threw all the clothes on the clothes rack to Zhao Shu and whispered, "Hurry up and get dressed."
Zhao Shu didn't move, and he started to get anxious. "Hurry up, or you won't be able to watch it anymore."
Zhao Shu looked at him coldly, sat on the bed wrapped in a quilt, and didn't move. "Mr. Huo, I used to admire you very much and regarded you as my idol."
Huo Baichuan leaned closer and asked, "What's an idol?"
Zhao Shu was disillusioned. The first time they met, she was disillusioned; the second time, she was disillusioned again; the third time, the fourth time... Idols are indeed meant to be disillusioned.
"Mr. Huo, please leave. I need to get dressed." Huo Baichuan didn't make any improper moves, so Zhao Shu knew he had no interest in a child like her. However, since he threatened her, she had no choice but to comply. Helpless, she could only obediently get dressed. She vowed that she would definitely avenge this!
Zhao Shu's room was divided into an inner room and an outer room, separated by a screen. The maids who kept watch at night slept in the side room and did not rest in the outer room.
Huo Baichuan walked outside the screen, and using the moonlight streaming in from the window, he found a chair, sat down, and patted his head. Why couldn't he find his way? That little fatty, he's been looking for so long! When we get back, I'll make him chop ten thousand catties of firewood!
His gaze fell on the screen. In the darkness, and behind the screen, he couldn't see anything, but those eyes were still filled with gloom. Did this little princess know his secret and want to get rid of him?
He shook his head. If he wanted to get rid of her, he would have done so already. Besides, his elder sister still needed her medical treatment. But... if he didn't get rid of her, it might not be a good thing for people to know his weakness.
Just as he was wavering between eliminating or not eliminating, Zhao Shu had already dressed and came out.
"Mr. Huo, let's go." After saying that, Zhao Shu did not go through the back door, but opened the window and prepared to climb down the camphor tree. Fortunately, when she was in modern times, she had climbed trees to steal bird eggs and gone down to the river to catch fish with Ajiu. Climbing down the tree was not difficult for her.
Huo Baichuan was astonished to see her leap from the windowsill to the tree branch with the agility of a monkey. This little princess was interesting.
He casually draped the blanket from Zhao Shu's chaise longue over himself, covering his ink-black white robe. Imitating Zhao Shu's movements, he jumped from the windowsill to a tree branch, then slid down. When he reached the bottom of the tree, Zhao Shu was already standing not far away watching him.
Under the moonlight, Zhao Shu led Huo Baichuan out. Zhao Shu was very familiar with Qionghua Courtyard, so she easily led Huo Baichuan out of the courtyard, avoiding the patrolling servants. Once outside, Zhao Shu stopped and said, "Mr. Huo, let's go."
Huo Baichuan certainly wouldn't walk by himself. If he were separated from Zhao Shu, who knows where he might get lost and run into Zhao Nihong?
"I told you I'd take you to see a grand show, aren't you leaving? Your father..."
“Mr. Huo, lead the way!” Zhao Shu stopped him.
