The little girl was still sitting there glumly until she got on the carriage to go back to the palace.
Ding Jue was surprised and poured her a cup of tea.
"Is there anything troubling Your Highness?"
This was the first time she saw His Highness showing such an expression.
Gardenia lay depressed on the low table, her fair little chin resting on her arm, and she tilted her head.
"Why do you think he doesn't want to marry me?"
It would be more convenient if I just marry my younger brother back, and no one can bully me.
The maid's hand shook and the hot tea almost spilled on the table.
She put down the teapot and asked dreamily.
"What did your Highness say?"
She was just angry with her Highness for being ignorant, so why did she suddenly say that she wanted to marry Young Master Yan back?
Gardenia gave her a strange look, but kindly repeated it.
"I said, why doesn't he agree to it directly?"
Hey, it's obvious that she took in a younger brother because she didn't want to be too tired?
As a result, not only did he have to do the task, but he also had to keep an eye on him.
She is indeed the best boss in the world!
The maid stared at her carefully for a while and found that she was indeed serious about what she said, and she was indeed not enlightened.
The corner of her mouth twitched, and she was silent for a moment, then tried to wake up her Highness.
"As a man, you just want to marry the wife you like. Your Highness, you and Mr. Yan have not known each other for a long time. Maybe he didn't realize your feelings. As a slave, this matter cannot be rushed."
Gardenia thought for a while and nodded.
"What you said makes sense."
As a female, it's normal for her to have an awkward personality. She should be tolerant of him.
Then she should run there more in the future!
The maid who can never find anyone in the future: ...makes you want to talk.
…
In fact, Gardenia has been really busy recently.
She had been hiding for a few days before, and the officials couldn't find anyone, so she just let it go, but this time she showed up at the banquet. Once she met one person, she couldn't stop seeing the others.
So the next morning, after the court, she was taken away by a group of senior officials.
Even going to the Flower House was done in a squeeze of time.
Sometimes she was too busy and the maid tried to persuade her to rest in the palace, but she would get a righteous reply from the little girl.
She still wants to marry a husband, so of course she has to go there and cultivate a relationship!
The maid was silent for a moment and simply let her come.
But the consequence of this is that every time I go to Hualou, I fall asleep immediately.
The two of them were still doing their own thing in the room, but instead of sitting far away and reading a book, Yan Xi was now able to cover her with a quilt and give her water from time to time.
Almost a week passed like this.
That day, Yan Xi was studying embroidery in her room when she heard the attendant say that His Highness was coming, so she quickly put down what she was holding and went over.
As soon as he opened the box door, he saw the little girl lying lazily on the soft couch and dozing by the window.
He pursed his lips, walked over and sat down, and then started massaging her naturally.
Initially it was to relieve her fatigue, but these days he has been reading a lot of related books, and he has become proficient in practicing the movements.
The pads of his fingers were warm, the strength was just right, and the breath was too familiar, making Gardenia feel drowsy.
She subconsciously rubbed herself into his arms, adjusted her posture, and then fell softly into silence.
Yan Xi lowered her eyes and looked at the green color in her eyes. She couldn't help but reach out and touch her fingertips, feeling a little distressed.
"If you're busy, you don't have to come over."
Gardenia slowly opened her eyes, looked at him a little confused, her tone was vague, but it was not difficult to hear the accusation.
"It's not because you don't want to marry."
Yan Xi made a move, almost couldn't help but agree to her, and finally coaxed her softly.
"Just wait for me, okay?"
He knew that he was wrong to do this, and he was even a bit arrogant in the eyes of others.
