After soaking for a while, the herbs in the wooden tub gradually filled the room with their aroma.
Because there are so many mixed herbs, the taste is... well, hard to describe.
The little girl was naturally most averse to the smell of herbs, but because she had to accompany Helian Ci, she endured the discomfort and forced herself to bear it.
The moon was the first to notice the little girl's discomfort. She wanted to persuade the girl to go outside, but then she saw the stubbornness on the little girl's face.
She pursed her lips, but ultimately didn't try to persuade her. Feeling sorry for the little girl, she took out a silk handkerchief and told her to cover her face with it.
"Third brother, please help Sisi tie up Jiangzi Jiangzi."
Holding a handkerchief for so long must have been so hard on this little cutie; her little hands must be so sore.
Sisi gestured with her chubby little hands, and Helian You nodded, took the silk handkerchief, and began to tie it up according to the little girl's wishes.
It was tied up very quickly.
"Thank you, Third Brother!"
A certain Sisi, with a triangular silk scarf perched on her little nose, smiled sweetly at Helian You and thanked him. It was rather funny, *pfft*
Helian You restrained himself from pouting, subtly turning his chubby face away and gently patting the little girl's fluffy head with his small hand.
"Little princess, so cute."
Sisi gently tugged at the corner of the silk handkerchief on her face with her chubby little finger, nodded her head in agreement, and said in a soft, sweet voice.
"Yes, yes, Sisi thinks so too!"
"No, sweetie, His Highness the Second Prince is going to take a medicinal bath. You're a girl, you can't stay here."
Seeing that the little girl was about to move forward, Liu Ruyan gave a few instructions to the palace servants behind her, then walked over and picked up the little girl with short legs.
"Uh, but... but..."
But Sisi had promised to accompany her second brother by Daming Lake. Before Sisi could even finish saying the second half of her sentence, Liu Ruyan carried her out of Helian Ci's room.
Helian You obediently followed along, his short legs carrying him closely. Liu Ruyan was completely charmed by Helian You.
She wanted to reach out and hold Helian You's little hand, but Helian You silently dodged her, noting it down in his little notebook:
My uncle said that he wouldn't let people he wasn't close to hold his hand or hug him, and he wouldn't give them any treats even if they offered him delicious cakes.
Liu Ruyan: Another merciless arrow pierces the heart.
With her small, delicate face and bright, grape-like eyes, Sisi could only look on with longing and reluctance.
Under Helian Ci's gentle nods and comforting gaze, she obediently nestled on Liu Ruyan's shoulder.
"Second brother, be strong!!!"
Sisi rested her little face on Liu Ruyan's shoulder for a moment, then decided to leave, but ultimately remained uneasy.
She had already stepped several steps out of the doorway when she raised her little hand to her mouth and shouted into the closed room in her sweet, soft voice.
"Hahaha, my darling, you're so adorable! Come here, let me give you another kiss, mua~!"
That soft, sweet voice amused Liu Ruyan, and her almond-shaped eyes fell on Helian Si's rosy cheeks.
Overjoyed, he hugged the little girl and gave her another happy peck on the cheek.
Helian You had a fair, round face, his little mouth pursed into a straight line, and his little fists clenched slightly at his sides. His whole doll-like face showed his displeasure: Little princess, his!
The tall guards who followed closely behind Helian You watched their young master walking ahead with concern, thinking to themselves:
Why is Your Highness unhappy? Do you want some pastries again? Go get them right away!
