Xiao had no choice but to stand behind Su Hen with his comb that took a lot of time to make but the result was unsatisfactory.
Su Hen's hair was dark and smooth, hanging straight down to her waist, like a waterfall. Just looking at it, she felt infinitely charming.
This is the first time Xiao has been so close to Su Hen.
In the past, he was always not far or near, just within five steps of her.
Now, it was so close that he could smell the fragrance of her hair, so close that he could touch it.
In Dayong, many women, especially those with a certain degree of power, prefer all kinds of men, and they dote on many men in the family.
But Su Hen never got close to any men, nor did she accept any men's favors. Even when the emperor asked her to get married as soon as possible, she refused, openly saying that she did not like men.
Therefore, people in the court thought that she had a habit of cutting off one sleeve, and that she was only in love with Liancheng Xiaofei, whose life and death were unknown.
Su Hen did not refute the rumors and acquiesced at the time.
Only Xiao, who has been her personal guard for more than ten years, knows that it's not that she doesn't love men, it's just that she doesn't want to have feelings for anyone.
He was one of the people who knew about her grand plans. One was her teacher, and the other was him.
One time while drinking, she said to him, "Actually, I also want to find a partner with whom I can live together and not be so lonely. But, I can't. My future behavior will inevitably mean a lot of bloodshed. I can't let me
The people I care about died under the butcher's knife because of me. Before I have enough ability to protect the people I love, I will not fall in love with anyone, and I don't want anyone to fall in love with me. No matter how lonely I am, I
I can bear it."
When she said this, his heart skipped a beat and he wanted to blurt out, "I won't be afraid of any bleeding death, and I don't need protection."
However, he did not say this in the end.
She is a prince of noble blood, and he is just a bodyguard.
All he has to do is to protect her by her side and give her the greatest safety.
He also didn't want to be a burden for her to show off her talents in the future.
As long as he can achieve her success, he can become her abandoned son.
"comb!"
Su Hen ordered.
The comb in Xiao's hand began to slide on her hairline.
The hair is soft and smooth, and can be combed from the top of the head to the bottom with just a slight movement.
As the hair lifted, the fragrant fragrance penetrated his nose and made his heart flutter slightly.
Su Hen's heart was not very calm at this time.
Usually, the chambermaids would comb her hair, but she was numb and didn't feel anything.
Now, looking at Xiao in the mirror clumsily combing the comb, it was as if the comb was suddenly engraved in her heart, giving her an impulse to reach out and grab his hand holding the comb, "Be my male favorite."
, okay?"
Xiao's hand trembled slightly, and the comb fell to the ground.
The air suddenly stagnated...
Seeing the blush that quickly appeared on his face, Su Hen suddenly chuckled and let go of the hand on the back of his hand, "It's just a joke, haha."
Xiao's tense heart relaxed slightly, but there was a hint of loss in his eyes.
He bent down, picked up the comb from the ground, and silently combed her hair again.
Su Hen stopped talking and closed his eyes to calm down a little.
Only she knew that she was not joking just now.
But she can't.
Now, she can still use her young age to refuse the Queen Mother's proposal to marry her.
In a few years, I won’t be able to refuse.
What's more, in order to complete her plan, she must marry the son of a powerful minister in the DPRK to strive for strong cooperation and achieve great things together.
She didn't want to wrong Xiao Xiao or ruin his life.
It is enough for him to be her bodyguard and her friend. When she finds a good partner, she will marry him so that he can live a happy married life and withdraw from his great career.
.
She doesn't want the people she cares about to become victims of her politics/conspiracies.
