Ye Beicheng paused slightly.
regret?
Just a servant!
…
Lin Shuang'er waited in the room for a long time.
She was very obedient. Xuanwu asked her to wait here, so she waited here and didn't go anywhere.
Lin Shuang'er was the only one in the huge room, and the furnishings in the room were extremely luxurious.
Lin Shuang'er was wandering around the house boredly. In the center of the house was a bed made of golden nanmu, with layers of gauze-like bed tents covering the top of the bed.
His fingers lightly brushed over the layer of gauze, and the cool touch felt like running water.
The image of that night suddenly flashed through her mind. There was also such a bed tent on Ye Beicheng's bed. The lights were dim that night, and the gauze-like bed tent dangled in front of her eyes all night.
Lin Shuang'er couldn't help but shudder in her heart. Lin Shuang'er's heartbeat accelerated. She quickly took her hand back as if she was electrocuted, and her face turned pale.
In the end, she was really bored, so she sat on a chair made of nanmu, holding her head and counting the time to pass quickly.
There were fine snacks on the octagonal sandalwood table. Xuanwu had told her when he sent her in just now that she could eat whatever she wanted on the table.
Lin Shuang'er pursed her lips, but finally couldn't control herself. She carefully picked up a piece of pastry, slowly put it into her mouth, and tasted it carefully.
I heard that Busi Shu's pastries are more delicious than those in the palace. She has never eaten from the palace, but she feels that the pastries here are already delicacies in the world, even more delicious than the hibiscus cake Dongmei stuffed for her in the morning.
Dongmei will definitely like such delicious pastries.
Taking out a handkerchief from her arms, Lin Shuang'er picked up two pieces from the plate, carefully held them in the handkerchief, and finally put the handkerchief in her arms. When she returned home later, she gave it to Dongmei and asked her to Also try the pastries from Bu Si Shu.
Lin Shuang'er finished one piece in small bites and was about to take the second piece when the door was suddenly pushed open from the outside.
A strong wind blew in, and Lin Shuang'er felt a chill on her back.
The hand that was stretched out in the air quickly retracted. Lin Shuang'er stood up and looked behind her in horror, only to see a strange man standing behind her.
The man's face was pale, as if he had applied thick makeup, his figure was stooped, and his pair of cloudy old eyes stared straight at her, which was very strange and terrifying.
He walked towards her against the light, and the slender black shadow gradually grew larger, and finally completely shrouded her little girl in shadow.
The door was closed little by little, and finally the door latch was firmly locked.
The light in the room dimmed little by little.
Lin Shuang'er looked at him warily and stepped back step by step.
The man looked at her with a terrifying smile and said, "You are indeed a beauty. It's not in vain for our family to go all the way." His throat seemed to be filled with gravel, and his voice was extremely hoarse and sharp.
Lin Shuang'er was aroused by the sound of goosebumps.
She looked frightened and her voice trembled slightly: "Who are you?"
She had never seen such a strange person. A man actually imitated women and applied makeup and powder on his face. His bright red lips were like those of a ghost, which looked very strange.
Wu Dehai walked straight to the nanmu bed and slowly lifted up the bed curtain with his pale fingers. He sat on the bed and tried the softness and hardness of the bedding with his hands. He seemed very satisfied.
Then, he looked up at Chong Lin Shuang'er, smiled slightly and said, "Someone gave you to our family, and you will be our family from now on."
"As long as you are obedient, our family will not treat you badly."
"If you have any requests, you can just make them. Don't worry about your status. Our family will cancel your slave status. From now on, you will be our wife..."
Lin Shuang'er was confused when she heard this.
What wife? Lin Shuang'er couldn't understand a word.
She said: "You are talking nonsense. My prince asked me to wait for him here. Who are you to break in without permission?"
Wu Dehai took out the brocade handkerchief from his arms, covered his mouth and said with a chuckle: "You are a little maidservant who doesn't know our family's identity. It is a blessing that you have cultivated for many lifetimes that our family can like you. Don’t be ignorant of praise.”
Lin Shuang'er suddenly realized that she had heard Dong Mei say before that the eunuchs in the palace called themselves our family. I heard that the eunuchs were rootless people with weird and twisted personalities...
Lin Shuang'er suddenly felt scared. She didn't understand why the old eunuch was targeting her and threatening to take her into the palace.
She shook her head and resisted very much: "I am from the Hou Mansion. I don't care what your status is. In short, I will not leave with you."
Wu Dehai's patience was gradually losing. If it weren't for Ye Beicheng's face and his temper, he wouldn't waste his words for a lowly servant.
His tone suddenly turned cold: "We have all the good things to say about our family, so please don't toast us without eating and you will be punished with a drink."
His eyes were frightening, as if staring at a prey.
And Lin Shuang'er is this prey.
Lin Shuang'er stepped back step by step, "No, I don't want it, I want to go find the prince..."
The only thing she could think of was to find Ye Beicheng. She remembered that he was next door...
At this moment, footsteps were heard outside the door.
Lin Shuang'er looked happy.
"Your Majesty..."
The person outside the door paused.
Wu Dehai didn't seem to be panicked at all. He sat quietly on the bed and looked at her jokingly.
Lin Shuang'er shouted desperately, but the people outside the door didn't seem to hear her. They just paused and left without looking back.
Lin Shuang'er was completely panicked.
It was obviously Ye Beicheng, he had obviously heard it...
"My lord, don't leave yet, don't leave..." Lin Shuang'er chased the departing figure, but her hair was grabbed tightly from behind.
"Little beauty, he won't come to save you..."
