I rolled my eyes, “If you think you look good, why don’t you just become a eunuch forever?” Moran turned away, “A woman with no taste.” I twisted his ear, “Call me daddy!” At that moment, Baoxi, who had been holding back, turned around: “Hey! Are you two done being affectionate?!”
We all immediately fell silent. Moran pretended to be well-behaved, but in his heart, he was strongly restraining himself.
Baoxi domineeringly ‘snatched’ me from Shuyang’s side, pulling my sleeve and angrily marching forward.
After a long walk, we finally arrived at Baoxi’s sister, Princess Qingping’s palace. I was out of breath and really wanted to spank Baoxi. He had insisted on walking instead of taking a sedan chair, making me trudge the entire way.
“Wait here, Xiao Han will come with me,” Baoxi pulled me inside. I felt dizzy—why was he dragging me in? As soon as we entered, I saw a dignified and elegant beauty playing the qin, her features so beautiful, she seemed almost unreal, like a fairy.
Baoxi cheerfully called out, “Sister!” The fairy stopped playing and smiled, “Baoxi’s here? Why didn’t you send word?” Baoxi mischievously stuck out his tongue, “Hehe, I wanted to surprise you!” The beauty’s gaze turned to me, “Baoxi, who is this?”
Baoxi pulled me forward, “Someone very similar to Luo Yan, my fiancée!” I thought the princess would scold us, but unexpectedly, she smiled at me, “Oh, is that so? Can you tell me your name?” I felt awkward—why was she so beautiful, and I was beautiful too, but her smile was much more charming? I needed to practice my smiling.
Before I could answer, Baoxi said, “Her surname is Ling, name Xiao Han!”
“Princess Qingping stood up and walked to me, ‘Nice to meet you.’ The more I looked, the more beautiful she seemed. (A certain Ling: ‘Yes, very beautiful, how narcissistic.’) I stammered, ‘I, I am too.’
Baoxi chatted with the princess for a long time, even having tea! If you want to chat, couldn’t we do this another day?
I tugged Baoxi’s sleeve to get his attention. He said to the princess, ‘Sister, I want to leave the palace to play with Xiao Han!’ The beautiful woman smiled slightly, ‘Okay, but you must bring guards.’
