Chapter 155: The first woman you hugged?
Xu Mubai swallowed deeply and said, "Princess, I just choked."
Su Yunyao curled her lips and reluctantly believed it.
"Eat."
The two sat facing each other. Xu Mubai struggled for a while before asking, "Princess, aren't you going to drink today?"
drink wine?
"I don't like drinking."
After a pause, as if she had thought of something, she added, "I only like drinking with men."
Xu Mubai: ...
Right at this moment.
Pearl walked in: "Princess, Master Lu is back and wants to have dinner with you."
"Let him in." Su Yunyao glanced at the dishes on the table and said, "Send someone to add two more of his favorite dishes."
Xu Mubai tightened his grip on the chopsticks with his fingertips, moved his lips, and swallowed the words back.
When Lu Mingfeng walked in and saw Xu Mubai, he was slightly stunned.
"Meet the Princess."
"Get up and come sit here."
Lu Mingfeng glanced at Xu Mubai out of the corner of his eye, turned around and walked to the stool next to Su Yunyao and sat down.
Xu Mubai: ...
He seemed to have gotten used to sitting opposite the princess and having meals together.
Before, there were only two of them in front of the food plate.
Suddenly there was one more person.
Especially every time he looked up, he could always catch a glimpse of the figure next to the princess, which made him feel particularly annoying.
He ate somewhat unexpectedly throughout the dinner.
"Princess, it's getting late. I should go back."
Su Yunyao nodded and said, "Go ahead."
When Xu Mubai stepped out, he couldn't help but glance at Lu Mingfeng.
Looking at the arc that inadvertently raised the corners of his lips, Xu Mubai frowned.
After he left, Su Yunyao turned her head and blinked at Lu Mingfeng: "You leave too."
Lu Mingfeng: ...
"Princess, I don't want to leave. I want to stay in your inner courtyard."
Su Yunyao made a big "meh" gesture at him and said, "No."
Lu Mingfeng: ...
"Princess."
Su Yunyao put a hand on his lips and said, "There's no room for negotiation. Either go back to your Dali Temple residence, or go to sleep in your own yard."
"Princess." Lu Mingfeng looked dejected. "Did I not serve you well last night?"
Su Yunyao raised a finger and shook it, "Too much trouble."
Lu Mingfeng: ...
"Princess……"
Lu Mingfeng wanted to say something but was kicked out by Su Yunyao.
He stood in the princess' inner courtyard with a helpless look on his face and sighed.
After Su Yunyao had eaten and drunk her fill, she called Zhenzhu in and said, "Get in the water and take a bath."
"Yes, Princess." Zhenzhu responded, still a little puzzled: "Princess, why didn't you let Master Lu stay and serve you? Is it because he came over and drove Shopkeeper Xu away?"
Su Yunyao laughed out loud when she heard that. "Pearl, I really want to open your head and see what's inside. How could you have such an idea?"
"Ah?" Pearl's eyes were startled: "Isn't it?"
"Of course not." Su Yunyao said firmly, "If this princess wants to keep someone to sleep with her, no one can stop her. If this princess doesn't want to keep someone, no one can keep them either."
Pearl admired silently in her heart.
She is worthy of being a princess.
Pearl and Agate prepared the water and helped Su Yunyao into the bathtub.
"Okay, you two can go out." Su Yunyao said calmly.
"Princess, don't you need me to help you bathe?" Pearl asked in surprise.
"Need not."
Su Yunyao scooped up the water from the bathtub and sprinkled it on her dazzlingly white arms.
"Wait, no matter what noise is coming from the bathroom, you don't have to come in."
Pearl didn't know why the princess said that.
But since it was the princess's order, she must obey it.
The two of them left the bathroom, and Pearl even considerately closed the door.
Su Yunyao leaned lazily against the edge of the bathtub.
"Xuan Qing."
Xuan Qing, who was leaning on a tree branch, was startled when he heard this.
He raised his eyes in disbelief and took a look through the gap in the bathroom.
He straightened up slightly.
"Xuanqing, Xuanqing..."
At this moment, Su Yunyao seemed to know where he was and looked towards him.
Xuan Qing was silent for a moment, then tapped his toes and knelt on one knee behind the entrance.
"Princess."
Su Yunyao teased the petals in the tub: "Why are you kneeling so far away today?"
Xuan Qing's lowered eyes trembled, "I wonder what the princess wants me to do?"
"You're too far away. I don't want to talk about it."
Xuan Qing: ...
"Princess, you are taking a bath. It is inconvenient for me to go over to you at this time." Xuan Qing lowered his head even deeper.
Su Yunyao stood up from the bathtub and stepped out. She picked up an undershirt, put it on casually, and walked towards the entrance.
She was barefoot, and wherever she walked, she left a trail of water.
Xuan Qing felt him approaching, and his eyes trembled fiercely: "Princess."
Su Yunyao walked to his side, squatted down, and hooked his chin with one hand so that his eyes were level with hers.
"That night, when you were holding me to sleep, you were very bold and proactive. You put your hands on my waist and hugged me so tightly that you poked me."
Su Yunyao smiled teasingly, her tone light.
Xuan Qing trembled all over when he heard this, his face and ears turned red instantly, and the back of his ears were red as if dripping with blood.
He lowered his eyes, not daring to look at her directly, and his eyelashes trembled uncontrollably.
"Princess."
The smile on Su Yunyao's lips deepened. "When I called you before while I was bathing, you always knelt beside the tub. What happened today? Are you being so pretentious?"
Xuan Qing's throat rolled up and down, "Your humble servant will die."
"You are indeed a dead end." Su Yunyao nodded in approval. "Last time, I said I was cold and asked you to hold me while I slept, but you kept refusing and ended up making me sick."
"Princess, I will go back and accept my punishment." Xuan Qing was filled with regret.
Just as he was about to stand up, Su Yunyao pinched his chin and said, "Just leave like that? Do you want me to squat here, soaking wet, and get frozen again?"
Xuan Qing then slowly raised his eyes and looked towards Su Yunyao. His eyelashes trembled unnaturally, "Princess."
Su Yunyao withdrew her hand and said calmly, "Carry me back."
The last time Su Yunyao fell ill, although Xuan Qing didn't get close to her, he knew that the princess had suffered a great deal.
This time, he did not hesitate, stood up and carried Su Yunyao horizontally.
"Hold me tight, don't let me fall."
Su Yunyao grabbed his clothes by the collar with one hand.
Her fingertips accidentally brushed across his Adam's apple, leaving a faint red mark.
Xuan Qing's footsteps paused noticeably.
"You're not holding her well." Su Yunyao complained, "Is this your first time holding a woman?"
"Princess."
When he finished speaking, his hands holding Su Yunyao were shaking: "I was selected by the royal family as a Xuanyi Guard since I was young, and I received various trainings. Before coming to protect the princess, I had never come into contact with anyone except assassinations and the emperor."
