The Regent's Tender Darling

"Little loach!"

Little Loach had just taken a few steps out of the courtyard when he heard shouts from behind him. When he looked back, he realized that it was Xuemei chasing him out.

The green skirt swayed violently as she ran, and the half-covered black hair followed her lightly, making the worry in her round eyes appear clearer.

"Xuemei."

Little Loach's face instantly changed from the heavy responsibility on his shoulders to relaxed and gentle, with a hint of warmth hanging from the corner of his mouth.

Looking at her, I seem to see a branch of snow-white winter in early spring, so green and full of life.

He still remembered the first time he saw Xuemei. At first glance, she was like a moist and dry spring, with a refreshing sweetness in every smile.

In fact, from a very early age, he had been paying attention to the girl who often went to the teahouse to listen to books. Looking at her dress, he mistakenly thought she was the daughter of an official family at first.

But seeing that she had always been alone, and there was no girl around, finally one day, the storyteller finished the most exciting part of the story. He saw her returning in despair, and he got the opportunity to talk to her. sentence.

He knew that she was a maid from a wealthy family, but he also knew at that time that the gap between them would be forever. He could only talk to her in the way of storyteller business, hoping that she would come often.

In fact, he didn't know how to tell stories like a storyteller at first. It was also because he knew that she liked listening to books, so he began to secretly learn from those storytellers. Because he had been living on the streets for many years, he learned quickly.

He just wanted to tell her what he saw and heard in a vivid and interesting way.

Now he can see this girl whom he has been thinking about for a long time, and every time he sees her, he feels warm in his heart.

"Is there anything else?" he asked. It seemed that the princess had something to tell him, so she asked Xuemei to come out and send him a message.

When asked, Xuemei pursed her lips, clasped her hands together, and looked at the smile on Little Loach's face. She didn't know what to say for a moment.

She was a little sad, she knew that his injury was not healed yet, and she didn't want him to go, but now the situation was critical and Little Loach had to go.

I was tangled in my heart, with tears in my eyes, and finally I condensed a thousand words into one sentence: "Be careful, I'll wait for you to come back..." Marry me.

She didn't say the last two words.

Little Loach couldn't tell that Xuemei was worried about him, so she smiled, reached out and wiped away the tears that were falling from the corners of Xuemei's eyes with her fingertips, and smiled warmly: "Silly girl, why are you crying? Just wait for me to come back."

He caressed the warm tears with his fingertips and didn't want to leave. He stayed there for a full breath. This was the first time he approached her openly and openly, and she didn't refuse.

Withdrawing her hand, Xuemei could no longer hold back the discomfort in her heart. Regardless of the shadow guards in the courtyard, she threw herself directly into the arms of Little Loach!

Shadow Guard: "!!"

Seeing this moment, the shadow guard consciously looked away. Only the little loach looked at a loss. He raised his hands and put them in the air. He wanted to hug her tightly, but felt that it was against the rules.

Even though the tug caused pain in the wound, he didn't make a sound, fearing to shock the person in his arms. If he hadn't been in trouble, he would have wanted to hold her for the rest of his life.

"Be good, silly girl, wait for me to come back."

"Yeah~!" Xuemei grunted in response, burying her entire face in Little Loach's chest.

Knowing that Little Loach was leaving, she let go of him, sniffed, and lowered her head slightly, trying to hide her red eyes.

Little Loach was a little dumbfounded for a while, but after he was injured, this silly girl became extra gentle, and now this look made him feel very distressed.

"Okay, go back quickly, I'm leaving first, just wait for me when I come back."

"Okay, you go, I'm going back to serve the queen." After Xuemei said that, she quickly turned and left, leaving only a green figure behind the little loach.
