Chapter 102: Call a Baby to Listen
Huo Xiao looked panicked. He moved his lips and was about to explain something, but he found that Su Yunyao had turned over and hugged the quilt, with no intention of waking up.
It turned out that the princess was really talking in her sleep.
Huo Xiao looked at her sleeping profile and sighed helplessly.
He never knew that someone's sleep talking could be so cute and could make him nervous.
Huo Xiao tiptoed out of bed and put on his underwear, thinking of what the princess once said, that only she could look at her man, otherwise he would not be clean.
He took another cloak and wrapped it around himself, making sure it was wrapped tightly, walked outside and opened the door.
Pearl and Coral, who were guarding outside, stood up straight when they saw Huo Xiao coming out and said, "Greetings, General Huo."
"Go and ask someone to boil some hot water, the princess needs to take a bath." Huo Xiao ordered.
Pearl's eyes lit up, and everyone was shocked. She actually needed to boil water!!!
"In reply to General Huo, the hot water is ready. I will go prepare the bathing supplies right away."
After Coral finished speaking, she pulled the shocked Pearl to the woodshed.
Huo Xiao returned to the house, took off his cloak and threw it on the ground.
He walked to the bed, picked up Su Yunyao and walked towards the bathroom.
I had just cleaned her and was helping her wipe her body when Pearl knocked on the door and came in.
She bowed and said through a screen, "General, the Emperor has issued an imperial decree, ordering the Princess to return to Shengjing today. Lord Shen's carriage is already waiting outside the General's Mansion."
"Today? So soon?"
Huo Xiao paused with his fingertips while holding the handkerchief. "Please ask Lord Shen to come in and sit for a while. The princess is asleep and hasn't woken up yet. I'll be there soon."
"Yes." Zhenzhu bowed and stepped out.
Perhaps because of the washing and wiping, and the sound of talking, Su Yunyao had already woken up when Huo Xiao was carrying her back to the bedroom.
Su Yunyao nestled in Huo Xiao's arms and yawned lazily, "What's wrong?"
"Princess." Huo Xiao placed her on the bed, his eyes dark. "The Emperor has issued an imperial decree, ordering the Princess to return to Shengjing today. I am reluctant to let her go."
Um?
Su Yunyao's eyes flashed with surprise, and all her sleepiness disappeared in an instant. "Can't bear to leave? Aren't you going back with me?"
"Princess." Huo Xiao reached out and helped her tidy up the loose hair at her temples. "I need the emperor's decree to return to the capital. Although Xijing has been defeated, there are still many aftermath matters that need to be handled by me. Even if the war in Xijing is settled, whether I can stay in Shengjing for a long time depends on the emperor."
Su Yunyao understood what he meant.
Generals like Huo Xiao are likely to be stationed outside.
Unless there is no more war in Daxia, how could a general on the front line stay in Shengjing City for a long time? Even if he could, his soldiers could not.
Su Yunyao's eyes trembled, "Will it be difficult for me to see you in the future?"
Huo Xiao pursed his lips and said, "I will return to Shengjing to visit the princess often."
After saying that, he hugged Su Yunyao tightly and buried his head deeply in her shoulders and neck.
For a while.
He seemed to have calmed down before he spoke slowly, "Lord Shen is still waiting outside. I want to go out and take a look. I didn't know the princess was returning to Shengjing today, otherwise last night..."
Before Huo Xiao could finish his words, Su Yunyao's fingertips pressed his lips, "General Huo was very powerful last night. This princess is very satisfied."
Huo Xiao, who was originally a little sad because of the separation, blushed instantly.
Following the coolness of Su Yunyao's lips, a tingling sensation instantly rushed to the top of his head.
"Princess……"
A blush colored his cheeks.
"Okay, even if you can't stay in Shengjing City for a long time, this princess can come out of Shengjing to find you. Just treat it as a trip." Su Yunyao said nonchalantly.
"Princess."
A light flashed in Huo Xiao's eyes, and he excitedly hugged her again.
"Princess, Princess, Princess, Huo Xiao, I really don't like you calling me Princess all the time. Can't you just call me sister, baby, dear, or something else?"
Huo Xiao: ...
It’s not that he doesn’t want to scream, it’s just that he really can’t.
Sometimes it was really hard for him to understand. The princess always said shocking things and he never knew what unheard-of things she would come up with.
Su Yunyao held his face with both hands, "Sis, you've called me sister before, so why don't you call me baby and let me hear it, okay?"
Baby?
Huo Xiao's breathing stagnated, and his expression instantly became somewhat indescribable, "Princess..."
After a pause, he lowered his eyes, not daring to look directly at Su Yunyao, "I can't say it."
Su Yunyao: ???
Men in ancient times were really pretentious.
Nowadays, isn’t this just a name?
Why can’t I say it out loud?
Looking at the back of his ears which were red and about to bleed.
Huo Xiao's shyness was not fake.
But the more Su Yunyao looked at his shy look, the more excited she seemed.
Man, you have successfully caught the attention of this princess!
"Look at me." Su Yunyao lifted his chin with one hand. "Are you trying to pull up your pants and deny it to me? When I asked you to call me sister before, you did it, but now you find it hard to say baby."
A row of black lines appeared above Huo Xiao's head.
Can my sister and baby be the same?
He was hesitant to call her sister at first because he thought the princess was younger than him.
But when I heard the word "baby", I felt...
"It doesn't matter if you don't call me baby. Anyway, the men who want to call me princess baby are all lined up all the way to France. General Huo is not the only one missing."
"Baby." Huo Xiao's eyelashes trembled, and he blurted out without thinking, "Princess, don't let others call you like that. I can do it."
Su Yunyao curled the corners of her lips, "What? Don't let others call me that?"
"Don't let others call the princess baby. I think the princess belongs to me alone..." Huo Xiao paused here, "baby."
"Okay!" Su Yunyao agreed immediately.
She agreed so readily that Huo Xiao was stunned for a moment. "Princess, are you lying to me? If you really agree, I am the only one who can call you... baby?"
"Of course." Su Yunyao smiled teasingly and pinched his nose: "Baby Huo Xiao."
Anyway, baby, darling, dear, husband, precious son, will never be alone to her.
Huo Xiao pursed his lips, and his already red cheeks drooped slightly. At this moment, he was even too embarrassed to look directly at the eldest princess.
The sound of Pearl knocking on the door came again. "Princess, General Huo, Lord Shen asked me to ask when the princess can leave."
Su Yunyao frowned, "He's really annoying. He always finds the perfect time to disgust me. Will he die soon? Is he in such a hurry? Is he rushing to reincarnate?"
Huo Xiao, who was originally a little annoyed when he heard Chen Qiu Nian urging him again, inexplicably curled up the corners of his lips when he heard Su Yunyao's words.
