"Your Majesty, Mr. Su is back!" A man who looked like a guard came over in a hurry and reported respectfully.
The man turned around coldly, walked a few steps, stopped again, and suddenly looked back, just in time to catch a glimpse of the elegant smile on Liusu's lips, which was light, clear, and had an indescribable feeling.
The man's heart seemed to have been hit by something. He was shocked hard, hatred suddenly rose up, and he walked away with a wave of his sleeves.
I will let you have a taste of what it means to live worse than death.
Liusu was a little tired. She raised her eyes and rubbed her sore shoulders. She accidentally caught a glimpse of Xiao Jue's back leading someone away. She stared at it for a moment and didn't care too much, thinking it was someone from the family's business.
After reading for a while, I felt a little hungry. This girl, Min'er, was probably lazy. She hadn't seen anyone for so long.
She poured a cup of tea. It was already cold and a bit bitter, but Liusu liked it. She liked the taste of pure tea.
"Miss, miss, the fragrant mung bean cake is here. You must have been waiting impatiently. It's all because I listened to the gossip and missed the time." Min'er said feeling extremely guilty, but there was no trace of regret on her face.
Liusu didn't care, he twisted a piece and put it in his mouth. Min'er's craftsmanship was very good, and the food he made was delicious.
"Miss, have you heard? Someone came to my door today to propose marriage to the eldest lady!" Min'er looked very happy with a gossipy look on her face.
Liusu ate the pastries and said calmly: "My sister is both talented and beautiful. After she turns fifteen, people come to her door to ask for marriage every day. Is it strange?"
"No, I heard that the person who came to ask for marriage today has a good background. Why is he called Xiao...oh, his name is Xiao Jue, yes, his name is Xiao Jue. He is the current King Xiao. The eldest lady is really lucky." Min'er had a look on her face.
said excitedly.
Liusu opened his eyes wide, took a breath, his face turned pale, the mung bean cake in his hand fell to the ground, and his mind went blank for a moment.
Xiao Jue...asking for marriage?
"Miss, what's wrong with you?" Min'er nervously looked at her young lady's suddenly pale face and panicked.
Liusu stood up and hurried to the vestibule.
Min'er was startled and shouted from behind: "Miss, you are not in good health, don't run away!"
He shouted and hurriedly ran to follow him.
As soon as Liusu ran to the vestibule, she bumped into the tall man walking out of the door. The man was caught off guard and took a few steps back. He subconsciously supported the sweet girl in his arms, raised his eyes and stared at her.
A soft and warm touch, and a faint medicinal fragrance.
Xiao Jue was slightly startled, seeing the person in his arms clearly, a cruel coldness arose, and he pushed her away expressionlessly.
Liusu didn't have time to react, so he stepped back and was about to hit the door panel.
Jinxiu hurriedly rushed over and blocked Liusu with her body, allowing Liusu to hit her arms. Her back hit the door panel hard, causing her to frown in pain, but she did not say a word and stared at Xiao Jue coldly and arrogantly.
"Get out of here, you're not welcome here!" Jinxiu said coldly.
"Sister, are you okay?" Liusu hurriedly grabbed Jinxiu's hand and asked softly.
Jinxiu softened her voice and said comfortingly: "Sister is fine!"
Xiao Jue's face was expressionless and his voice was cold, "Sisterly love is truly deep. I will give you an unforgettable wedding night...Princess Xiao!"
