He village inn.
When Pang Yi hurried back to his village inn, Xiao An had just woken up.
"You..." Xiao An's pale face suddenly turned red as she saw Pang Yi coming in. She struggled to get up from the bed and asked anxiously, "Are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?" Before she finished her words, Xiao An's eyes turned red and her throat choked up. "It's all my fault. It's all my fault..."
Pang Yi hurried over and wanted to cover Xiao An with the quilt that had slipped to the side, but he felt it was too abrupt. He suddenly paused, looked around, and finally put the white fox cloak on Xiao An.
"I'm fine." Pang Yi stood in front of the bed. He didn't know where to look. He glanced at Xiao An's trembling shoulders and pursed his lips. "Don't cry. I'm really fine."
"You..." Xiao An wiped her face and sniffed. She looked up at Pang Yi and asked angrily and angrily. "Who told you to go to that shop? There are so many clothing shops on the street, but you chose that one! Did you like the lady boss? Otherwise, why would you rush in..."
"How could I have one!" Pang Yi was so wronged that he was just tongue-tied. In front of Xiao An, he was even tongue-tied. He didn't know how to explain. He scratched his head and stammered for a long time, "I... I want to buy a small jacket for women, so naturally I have to... I have to find a shop with a lady boss, so that I can buy the right size. Other clothing shops only have... only a male shopkeeper standing there, so I... how can I open my mouth? There is only that shop..."
"Who are you going to buy a jacket for?" Xiao An's face suddenly froze. She stared at Pang Yi without blinking, her lips trembling and unable to stop. "Who? Which... which woman?"
"No..." Pang Yi looked at Xiao An's expression, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat. He quickly looked away and whispered, "It wasn't me who wanted to buy it. It was His Highness who asked me to buy it."
"Your Highness?" Xiao An's complexion immediately improved a lot. She pursed her lips and stroked her overly frightened chest. After a pause, she looked at Pang Yi with curiosity, "Who did Your Highness ask you to buy clothes for? Was it the Duan girl? Your Highness actually thought of these things? It's really strange. The Duan girl is really capable."
"She is not Duan's daughter," Pang Yi said thoughtfully, "She is Duan's personal maid."
"What?" Xiao An's eyes widened immediately, "How...how is this possible?!"
Yeah, how is that possible?
How could a noble son of a rich family fall for a maid?!
What's more, Zhong Mingwei was a man of that temperament. He didn't dislike her, a noble lady from the first-rank minister of rites. How could he care so much about a mere maid?
Xiao An really couldn't figure it out, so she frowned and asked, "Please explain clearly, does His Highness really like a little maid?"
"It's not that he's attracted to her," Pang Yi said in a deep voice while sizing up Xiao An's face. "Your Highness has made up his mind to spend his whole life with her, just like other couples. It's different from when they were in the capital before..."
Suddenly, Pang Yi fell silent. How could he say such words in front of Xiao An? Wasn't this a clear mockery of Xiao An?
Xiao An was startled, then smiled sarcastically, pursing her dry lips and said, "You don't need to care about me. His Highness really doesn't care about me. I knew it a long time ago. Why do I need you to protect me?"
Pang Yi glanced at her without saying anything, then turned to the table and got a cup of tea and handed it to Xiao An.
"Tell me, what kind of a capable maidservant could melt His Highness's cold heart?" Xiao An held a cup of tea and looked at Pang Yi leisurely, "That maidservant must be stunningly beautiful, right? Is she prettier than the Duan girl? The Duan girl is already one of the most beautiful women in the capital. I didn't expect that his maidservant is also a beauty."
"No, she is not pretty, and there is a big scar on her neck." Pang Yi thought of Ah Chou's timid face and couldn't help but slow down his voice. "Although she is not a beauty, her heart is better than that of many noble ladies combined."
When Xiao An heard him say this, she felt a little bit unconvinced and a little bit angry. Did Pang Yi try to confuse her with this?
