After being scumbag with the paranoid villain, I failed to escape

Chapter 64 The Stuttering Little Princess

"Ah? But you weren't just now."

Lou Xue stuttered and couldn't finish her words, but Qu Xi could understand what she meant.

He reached out to take the paper umbrella sent by the servant who was chasing behind him, opened it, put the carrier pigeon on his shoulder, looked at Lou Xue and explained: "It's just a temporary measure, but when it comes to the materials for making clothes, slaves

There are indeed a few horses, but it’s definitely not possible for you to go and get them. If you really want them, I can send someone to deliver them to you.”

After Lou Xue listened to what Qu Xi said, she glanced at the position where Lou Chun had just left, and then realized that Qu Xi only said that to help her out.

Seeing that he was still waiting for her to give a reply, Lou Xue hesitated a few times, bit her lip, raised her eyes and looked at him and said: "I still want to kiss you. Go and get it in person."

Lou Xue's maid, Jia Zhu, saw that her master would only try his best to speak a complete sentence when facing Qu Xi. After sighing quietly, she helped Lou Xue find a more suitable reason.

"The roof of the Eleventh Princess's palace is now broken, and there is no time to repair it. It's a rainy day like this, and I'm afraid it will be very cold even if I go back. It's good to go to Admiral Qu's place to get some warmth, and to avoid it temporarily.

"

It's not like Qu Xi didn't know what was going on in the Xueying Palace where Lou Xue lived. Because Lou Xue was not favored, the palace was in disrepair for a long time. Every time it was windy or rainy, it was common for the roof to have a hole.

Hearing that it had broken again, Qu Xi winked at the eunuch waiting aside. After the eunuch ordered him to go down, he looked at the paper umbrella in Lou Xue's hand that was blown to pieces by the wind.

.

After showing distress in his eyes, he handed his paper umbrella to Lou Xue.

"Princess Eleven, please use the slave. The slave's clothes are already wet. It doesn't make any difference whether he holds an umbrella or not."

After his reminder, Lou Xue realized that Qu Xi's clothes, including her usually neat black hair, had been soaked by the rain and became a little embarrassed.

After being stunned for a moment, she seemed to have thought of something, and her earlobe was suppressed to turn red. She did not dare to look directly at Qu Xi's clear face, and murmured: "No, no, we have to fight together. Let's fight together."

"

Qu Xi still wanted to refuse, but at this time a gust of rain and wind blew in from outside Maple Leaf Water Pavilion, making Lou Xue's nose turn red, and she couldn't hold back a sneeze.

There are always few people here at Maple Leaf Waterside Pavilion. Today is another rainy day, so basically no one comes here.

After Qu Xi looked at the red maple leaves and didn't see the strange figure next to him, he finally gave in and agreed to hold an umbrella with Lou Xue.

Since they were holding an umbrella together, Qu Xi, who was almost two heads taller than Lou Xue, was of course the one holding the umbrella.

The two of them stepped on the gravel road, stepping on the maple leaves soaked by the rain. On the way to the straight house where Qu Xi lived, Lou Xue couldn't help but glance sideways at the tall young man beside her.

It was obvious that when she rescued him, he was just a little eunuch who was a head shorter than her. Now, time flies, and in the blink of an eye, he is so much taller than her, and he is also sitting in a high position.

On the other hand, she herself is still just a cautious and useless princess who can only be a beetle in the palace.

Qu Xi was able to sit in the position of admiral eunuch, so his observation skills were not weak, so he noticed it the first time Lou Xue looked at him.

But he didn't expose it, but tightened his grip on the umbrella handle, pretending not to know.

But a touch of pink appeared unconsciously on the earlobe, which was extremely obvious on his cold white skin.

Lou Xue was thinking about something and did not notice the changes in Qu Xi.

When she got to the straight room where Qu Xi lived, sat down in the living room with the incense burner lit, and watched Qu Xi leave to change his clothes, she realized that the area around his earlobe seemed a little too red.

"Gu Gu."

The homing pigeon, which was also wet, was standing on the wooden table in front of Lou Xue, pecking at its feathers and making a cooing sound to attract her attention.

She glanced at the mailbox on the carrier pigeon's feet and saw that the cover that should have been at the mouth of the mailbox was missing. She immediately turned pale and hurriedly went to take out the letter inside.

While taking it out, he stammered and murmured to himself: "Don't get wet, please."

Fortunately, the letter was taken out in time. She opened it and looked at it. Except for some ink in the corners that were smudged by rain, most of it was normal.

It is quite cold inside the house in late autumn, so the charcoal stove has already been prepared.

Lou Xue searched with her eyes, and after finding the charcoal stove, she wanted to take it to grill it.

But the letter paper in her hand was too thin. As soon as she unfolded it, before she could hold it firmly, it was blown away by the strong wind blowing in from the half-closed window and landed on the charcoal stove.

She was so frightened that she subconsciously reached out to pick it up, extinguished the fire at the corner of the letter with her hands, and looked at the letter nervously.

She breathed a sigh of relief after discovering that it had only been burned in an area that was not too affected and would not affect viewing.

When Qu Xi came over after changing his clothes, what he saw was Lou Xue's cute little face, looking frightened.

"Princess Eleven? What are you?"

The young man in green and gray clothes asked as he strode towards the charcoal stove where Lou Xue was sitting.

After discovering that what she was holding in her hand was special letter paper that had been folded many times, there was still no expression on her face.

It wasn't until he saw clearly that her index finger holding the letter had redness and swelling that only appeared after being burned by fire, as well as burn marks on the corners of the letter, that he roughly guessed something and then frowned and pulled Lou Xue's wrist.

, wanting to take her up to treat the wound.

Before "I" Lou Xue had time to explain, her whole body was pulled up by a strong force.

Because she had been frightened just now, her legs were still a little weak. She stood up suddenly and quickly fell uncontrollably towards the place where the force came from.

His head hit Qu Xi's chest, and he smelled the refreshing fragrance of pear blossoms.

But she couldn't smell it deeply for too long because the pain from her nose hitting the young man's solid chest made her eyes red.

Qu Xi found a delicate body falling into his arms and hurriedly tried to move his body back subconsciously.

But he forgot that Lou Xue was in his arms, and when he stepped back, she, who used his body as support and support, would also be affected.

As a result, the girl who was just burying her head in his chest soon had to wrap her hands around his waist to prevent her from falling due to his action.

Lou Xue raised her head, revealing her still red eyes. Her face was all red with embarrassment, and her stuttering became even more serious when speaking.

"Admiral Ququ, no, no, I didn't do it on purpose."

If it were left to others to talk so long-winded and procrastinated, Qu Xi would have been annoyed by his temperament.

But when he heard Lou Xue speaking in such a soft and waxy voice, he felt that his ears were a little soft.

Qu Xi: How can a princess be so cute?
