Chapter 18
The fingertips rubbed against the delicate skin intentionally or unintentionally. Youqing felt itchy and blushed to kick someone, but Xue Bai held on tighter. He even lowered his head and kissed the young man's beautiful ankle, "Isn't it a cramp? Huh?"
You Qing is not stupid, "It's leg cramps, you are not allowed to touch it."
The slender hand stroked upward again, but Xue Bai ignored him and asked him with a light smile, "Here?"
"No, no, no." Youqing wanted to hide, but he couldn't stand the itching, he pushed Xue Bai away with his hands indiscriminately, his black pupils were wet with water, and he was about to jump if he kept teasing, "It's so itchy!"
Xue Bai didn't really intend to make people anxious, so he withdrew his hand as if nothing had happened, and put a few strands of black hair on Xiao Qing's face behind his ears, saying, "Sleeping."
You Qing stared round her eyes, trying to drive Xue Bai away, "I won't be able to sleep if you stay here."
Xue Bai frowned, "I'm here this afternoon, are you still asleep?"
Youqing turned her back in embarrassment and anger, and refused to talk to him again, but not long after, Youqing turned around and kicked Xue Bai, and then hurriedly got into the bed and pretended to be asleep.
As the night darkened, the lights dimmed. Every few hours, the maids would come in quietly to place ice cubes to cool down the room. After all, this palace housed a young ancestor who couldn't stand the heat.
Youqing tossed and turned on the bed, the heat was gone, but he couldn't sleep, he lingered for a long time, finally sat up from the bed, turned his head and took a few more glances at Xue Bai beside him by the moonlight.Xue Bai's face was flawlessly handsome, but now that he closed his eyes, he no longer had the indifference and alienation of the past, and his brows and eyes were inexplicably softer.
"Hey."
Youqing tilted his head and made a sound, but no one responded, and then he cautiously poked Xue Bai's face a few times with his finger.He was still thinking about Xue Bai pinching his ankle just now, seeing that Xue Bai didn't respond for a long time, not even frowning, Xiaoqing rubbed Xue Bai's face indiscriminately to retaliate.
He said crisply: "Don't hold my hand again in the future."
"You can't hug me either, it's so hot."
"Anyway, stay away from me in summer, winter, winter... I have to think about it!"
After avenging his revenge, Xiaoqing happily jumped out of bed, intending to sneak out to search the back kitchen of the palace, but he poked his head out, and the door of the next door opened with a "squeak" sound, and it was halfway open The young master, who hadn't slept all night, stretched his neck to look around, but he didn't expect to see his own little bastard.
"Daddy?"
Master Young hurriedly "shushed", and waved at Youqing, "Come here, I'll give you something good to eat."
Youqing leaned over curiously, and Master You immediately slapped him on the head, "I'll give you some chestnuts."
You Qing was tricked into being beaten for no reason, and was wronged, "Daddy, why did you beat me?"
Seeing his pitiful attitude, the young master wanted to laugh but held back forcefully, dragged him into the room, then turned his head and looked out like a thief, and then closed the door.He hated iron for being weak and scolded Youqing, saying: "Think for yourself!"
Mrs. Zhao put on her coat and got out of bed, glanced at the young master and frowned and asked, "Why did you hit him on the head again?"
Youqing thought that Mrs. Zhao would support her, so she quickly threw herself into her arms and pretended to be pitiful, "Daddy hurts so much from the beating."
Mrs. Zhao then said: "Look at how poor our family is, we are already stupid enough, but his father is still picking his head, for fear that his own son is not stupid enough."
You Qing lowered her face, "Mother."
"Do you still remember what I told you?" No matter how much Zhao dotes on Youqing on weekdays, she can't avoid saying a few words to him now. She nodded on Youqing's forehead and said, "I want you to stay with the prince less, Don’t let him know that you are pregnant, and don’t even think about going back to Jinling in the future, but you are fine, and let him coax you away if you don’t watch.”
"I'm so sleepy." You Qing quietly argued: "And, moreover, it was mother who said that after burning the incense and letting me sleep, I went to sleep."
"No wonder it's said that the daughter is a caring little padded jacket, but the son just doesn't work. Seeing Zhizhi, I feel so hot in my heart. When I see you, I feel cold." Youqing opened her big black eyes, and looked at her with ignorant eyes. Zhao's heart softened again and again, and he had no choice but to sigh helplessly: "You are really born to be a young master, so you don't need to worry about it."
You Qing muttered, "The weather is so hot, I don't need my sister to make a padded jacket for my mother, but I have to come and cool my mother down."
"loquacious."
Mrs. Zhao was amused by him, so she simply didn't teach Xiaoqing anymore, anyway, it would be useless to say more.She asked with a smile, "Why are you running out in the middle of the night?"
"I can't sleep." You Qing complained bitterly: "I was so sleepy at first, but this lord is so annoying, he insisted on hugging me, I lied to him about leg cramps, and kept asking me where I was, it was so itchy .”
"what!"
The young master said angrily: "How dare this bullshit prince touch you?"
Mrs. Zhao's complexion was also not very good-looking, she glared at the young master, "Master, you said that with you, that person named Xue would never touch a single hair of Qingqing, what's going on?"
The young master hurriedly said: "It's not that there's not much movement over there, I, I..."
Zhao sneered, "It's too late if there's too much movement."
The young master said with a guilty conscience: "Madam, please listen to my explanation."
The young master stammered for a long time, unable to find a reason to fool himself, he said in a hurry: "Ma'am, why don't we go back to Jinling tomorrow. It doesn't matter whether he is abnormal or not, anyway, everyone has left. This surname is Xue." What else can he do? And Qingqing is a good-for-nothing, he just gives him a candy and goes away, maybe he was abducted, but he happily took out his purse to give people gold leaves."
Youqing glanced at Mrs. Zhao, and said dissatisfiedly: "I am not, I am not, don't talk nonsense."
Mrs. Zhao was quite a headache. Youqing's temperament made them too naive. Maybe if they stayed in the capital for a few more days, Xue Bai would really abduct him again.In order to prevent this possibility, Zhao immediately made a decision: "Leave tomorrow."
Young Master then pushed You Qing out, "Go back to sleep, don't let him find out that you sneaked out."
After finishing speaking, the young master confessed worriedly: "If Wang Jia touches you again, you should speak louder, otherwise we won't be able to hear you here."
Youqing nodded.
He tiptoed back into the house and climbed onto the bed again, but seeing that Xue Bai hadn't even changed his posture, he boldly went up to rub Xue Bai's face a few more times.
"pig."
Youqing said happily: "I'm going back to Jinling to eat pork ribs with sauce, hairy crabs, iced cheese and sweet bean soup!"
Being so happy, Xiaoqing quickly fell asleep.
On the contrary, Xue Bai at the side slowly opened his eyes after he fell asleep.Xue Bai first put a thin quilt on You Qing's stomach, then lowered his eyes thoughtfully. After a long time, he gently stroked the young man's beautiful eyebrows, and then asked inexplicably, "Go back to Jinling?"
Xue Bai didn't quite know what happened to You Qing. As soon as he left, he summoned the guards who had been guarding the small house recently, and learned that the imperial doctor in the palace had visited the door several times. At this moment, Xue Bai finally confirmed that You Qing had forgotten many things, many things about himself.
Xue Bai's eyes were as gloomy as the night, and he said calmly, "Since you are going to sneak away, how can you tell me in advance?"
In his sleep, Xiaoqing rolled over and took the initiative to get into Xue Bai's arms, still unconsciously talking in sleep: "Braised lion's head, Dongpo pork, steamed pork with rice flour, fresh shrimp dumplings..."
