Chapter 52 He, Don't Belong to Me
Looking at his anxious and angry look, a warm feeling surged in my heart. In this cruel and ruthless palace, there are still people who care about me and love me, which makes me happier than anything else.?
"No, no one bullies me, it was because I accidentally burned it."
"You yourself? Why did you burn it?"
I didn't want him to know about Yao Yingxue, so I said nonsense: "I accidentally slipped my candle last night when I lit it, and the wax oil dripped on my hand and it burned."
He heard this, held my hand and looked carefully, and said with distress: "Why are you so careless? Is your hands still moving?"
I smiled with relief and said, "Not serious, don't worry, I will make delicious snacks for you in two days."
He heard this, and he showed an unhappy expression on his face and said resentfully: "I, I'm not for snacks, I'm-yes-"
Seeing him stammering for a long time, his dark face turned red, and I laughed: "Okay, I know you care about me."
I gently patted the back of his hand with my injured hand and said seriously: "Thank you, Xiao Wu."
Sometimes, although I hope to stay away from my current life, the innocent and kind Yuer and the straightforward and reckless Xiao Wu in front of me are the ones I most reluctant to leave. If I really want to leave, maybe they are my only concern here...
As for other people, as soon as I thought about it, I immediately put aside the familiar and cold figure in my mind.
He does not belong to me; and I will never belong to him!
Xiao Wu looked at me, his bright eyes shining like gems, and his face turned redder. After a while, he suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, Qingying, I came here today to ask you something."
"What's up?"
"Tonight's night party, will you-will go?"
I was puzzled for a moment, and I don’t know why he asked me this, but I realized it as soon as I thought about it. He was the escort of His Highness, and I was afraid he would follow His Highness to attend, so I came to ask me. But when I remembered what Yuer said just now, Yao Yingxue was even restrained from Yang Jinqiao and refused to allow other concubines to attend, I was afraid that I would not let this face show my face.
So he smiled and said, "My hand is injured, and my wife won't let me go."
He breathed a sigh of relief and murmured, "Well, then I'll feel relieved."
"What?"
"No, it's okay." He seemed to be happy again and said, "Then you should recover from your injuries. I'll go back. Wait. After tomorrow night, I'll see you again!"
After saying that, he waved his hand at me and ran away without looking back.
I was still a little confused. I was also a little funny when I watched his back as he was wandering away with joy. This child is always so reckless and mindless, which makes people feel relieved.
When I turned around, I saw that the twilight was approaching in the lake next to the house. Although there was still the sunset, the moon had risen to the sky. The faint moonlight reflected in the water, like a brilliant snow light.
Thousands of rivers have water and thousands of rivers and moons...
Time passed like flowing water. On the night of the Orchid Festival, there was still such a pond of lake water. The reflected moonlight was dazzling. The moon was full like a jade basin. The silver moonlight gently flowed on the water surface, revealing a hint of coldness.
