Chapter 53 I Smile When I See Her
Seeing her lowering her head, Ye Yunchu reached out, grabbed her arm and pulled her in front of him.
"Do you want to know how I know what you are thinking?"
Li Runrun widened her eyes, glanced at Ye Yunchu, then looked away embarrassedly: "No, no..."
She had no idea that everything about her seemed to be written on her face, and she was wondering how he knew everything.
It was as if the prince's eyes could really see through people's hearts, which made her feel a little uneasy.
Ye Yunchu's tone was a bit malicious and cynical: "I can read minds, so be careful."
Read, read minds?
Really?
Ye Yunchu laughed: "Are you thinking that I can read minds? Is that true?"
The soft and watery almond eyes widened even wider. The prince really can read minds.
The next second, the prince read out her inner thoughts: "You really can read minds, so amazing."
Li Runrun's mind was in a mess. She soon inexplicably thought of some things that were not acceptable, but she suppressed them after a few attempts. It was simply her brain going against her body, and she had to rebel at this time.
The prince can't be allowed to read this.
She couldn't let the prince think that she was a jerk.
Then I started thinking about my father and brother, and I couldn't help feeling very sad again.
Ye Yunchu originally just wanted to tease her. After all, he couldn't read her mind. He just knew how to scare her.
But now he grabbed Li Ruanruan's arm, angrily and amusedly saying, "What are you thinking about? Why are you blushing so much?"
Li Ruanruan stared at Ye Yunchu in a daze, then whispered, "My Lord, I don't know?"
Doesn't he read minds? And isn't her face red right now?
Li Runrun quickly reached out to touch her face. It seemed a little hot. It must be because she was thinking about something else and got anxious, and the redness suddenly turned red and hadn't gone away yet. She didn't think about it anymore.
"I only have a limited amount of time to read your mind each day, so I can't read your mind right now. So, what are you thinking about that makes your face so red, huh?"
Li Ruanruan covered her face and stepped back, wanting to be farther away from him. She always felt that his gaze was too scorching: "No, no..."
Ye Yunchu grabbed her arm, pulled her into his arms and sat her down, pinching her chin: "It seems you haven't thought it through."
"Very good, thinking about dad and brother."
"Then why is your face so red? Tell me."
"No, I don't know. I really just miss my dad and brother."
"Not honest."
"Very honest."
He bullied her, so he didn't think it through. He was not serious, so he thought she was not serious.
Ye Yunchu took Li Ruanruan's hand and put it in his arms, and then went down: "Are you thinking about this? Your face is even redder. It seems that I guessed it right."
Li Ruanruan finally struggled to get up. She ran away and he started to act inappropriately again.
He covered his face and ran out the door.
Li Bai hurried over when he saw her. Seeing her blushing, he thought of something and then smiled secretly.
Li Ruanruan stood in the cold wind and felt the breeze.
Ye Yunchu stood by the window and said to Li Ruanruan outside the window: "You just stand outside to enjoy the breeze, and you think my precious medicinal herbs were blown here by the wind, and why don't you come in?"
Li Ruanruan was still covering her face. She turned around when she heard the words, then hesitated for a moment, and then hesitated again.
I went back anyway. I was indeed feeling well and had started sweating after eating. I was afraid that the cold wind would harm my body.
She went back and moved to Ye Yunchu's side before saying, "I'm not... I'm blushing because of the heat."
"I'm hot too."
Ye Yunchu only said this, and Li Runrun didn't dare to say anything.
After a while, Ye Yunchu took out a book from the bookshelf and flipped through it before saying, "Why am I not blushing?"
Li Ruanruan lowered her head and muttered softly: "I'm thin-skinned."
"Um?"
"without......"
"Are you indirectly saying I'm thick-skinned?"
Ye Yunchu tapped Li Ruanruan on the head with a book. Li Ruanruan shrank her neck and asked in a low voice, "Will the prince really continue to help me find my father and brother?"
Ye Yunchu hummed softly when he heard this: "I'll give you an explanation whether you see him alive or dead."
Li Runrun felt relieved. With these words, she believed that the prince would give her an explanation and would not give her a perfunctory answer. She was grateful. She thought about embroidering more Su embroidery items for him to repay him. If she earned money in the future, she would give it to the prince!
Ye Yunchu sat on the couch and read a book. After a while, he found that he had no interest in reading at all. Since the concubine was here, he wanted to bully her.
But because of this incident that happened in her family, she fell seriously ill again.
Ye Yunchu supported his forehead, leaned over the table and shook his head gently, and ordered: "Go wash up and go to bed, you don't have to stay up with me."
Li Ruanruan stood beside him, thinking about what had just happened. She was already under a lot of pressure, and she breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that.
Get up and move out.
Seeing her quick movements, Ye Yunchu couldn't help but turn the pages of the book louder.
Unexpectedly, after a while, the little maid came in again.
Ye Yunchu himself didn't even notice the smile on his lips that he couldn't suppress: "Why did you come back? Can't bear to leave me?"
Li Runrun originally ran back to ask the prince which room she slept in.
But when the prince asked this with a smile.
Li Runrun didn't dare to say anything, as she felt that the prince would be angry if she said that.
So Li Ruanruan walked over with her head held high and whispered, "Don't look at it, my lord. It's too late and it will hurt your eyes."
Then Li Ruanruan ran away again.
Ye Yunchu stretched out his hand but failed to catch the corner of her clothes: "Running so fast! You are becoming more and more unruly."
Although he scolded like this, the corners of his lips were actually raised high.
This little concubine really couldn't leave him for a moment, she was so clingy. He just read a book, and she would come back to remind him to go to accompany her earlier. It seemed that without him, she couldn't even fall asleep.
So delicate.
Okay, it's a pity that something happened to her family, it's really pitiful.
Watch for a while longer, then go and accompany her.
Li Ruanruan finished washing up and lay down. Seeing Li Bai lowering the bed curtains and about to leave, she grabbed her again and said, "The prince has ordered that I sleep in this bed and this room."
It looks a bit like the main house, and she is a concubine, so she should live in the ear room.
However, Li Runrun rarely came into contact with these things. She had lived in a poor place since she could remember. After becoming a low-level slave, she only did rough work and no one taught her these things.
Li Bai is a second-class maid and should know better than her.
Seeing Li Bai nod vigorously, Li Runrun felt relieved, thinking that it must be correct.
She can sleep here peacefully, the prince has already given instructions.
Li Runrun hugged the quilt and looked at the bed curtains. She didn't feel at ease sleeping on such a clean and comfortable bed.
I wonder how my father and brother are doing now. Are they still alive?
Thinking of this, all the little thoughts I had about the prince disappeared. My heart felt like it was stuffed with a ball of cotton, making it hard to breathe.
Li Bai turned off the lights, but not all of them. She left a candle lit in various places so that the prince could come back easily.
But Li Runrun thought that Li Bai left it there because he was afraid that she would be scared if she slept alone.
Li Bai is also a very good maid.
Li Runrun shed two tears. After all, she had just recovered from a serious illness and had been emotionally unstable all day. She hugged the quilt and quickly fell asleep.
She was half asleep when she felt something lying beside her and a hand reaching into the hem of her clothes.
Li Runrun struggled desperately, thinking in her heart, could this bamboo courtyard be haunted by a male ghost, a lecherous one at that?
No, don't pinch her!
Li Runrun tried her best to open her eyes, and through the faint light of candlelight, she met the eyes of the prince.
