Chapter 22: The Cold and Arrogant Master is Actually a Great Enemy
Shi Li also didn't expect that in Xiao Jin's eyes, she was actually a great food accompaniment.
But Shi Li was still very happy to see him coming.
Sincerity for sincerity, she knows best how Xiao Jin treats her.
After being together for a long time, it is impossible not to have feelings.
"What would you like to eat, my brother? I'll tell the kitchen to make it."
The lunch had already been prepared, but Shi Li felt that Xiao Jin should be treated as an emperor.
"Whatever you eat, I'll just eat the same as you." Xiao Jin was very happy to be valued. He felt itchy and rubbed Shi Li's head.
"Yueying, look at my brother!"
Shi Li felt a little aggrieved that her beautiful hair, which she had combed with great difficulty in the morning, was now messed up, and she subconsciously went to Yueying to complain.
But this time, Yueying not only did not make the decision for her, but also watched with a smile on her face.
Shi Li was a little unhappy, and puffed up her cheeks angrily, like a cute hamster.
Seeing this, Xiao Jin immediately took out the gift he had prepared long ago - an inkstone produced outside the region, "Don't be angry, don't be angry, this is for you."
Xiao Jin thought that Shi Li really had a hobby of collecting inkstones, so she specially asked people to collect inkstones everywhere, and bring the good ones to her.
Shi Li looked at the black inkstone speechlessly, turned around and continued to be angry.
Xiao Jin was puzzled and subconsciously looked at Yueying.
"Our princess is so beautiful, your majesty should give her beautiful clothes and jewelry."
Yueying finally stopped being indifferent when she received the emperor's request for help. She came over and smoothed Shili's hair while giving her some advice.
Xiao Jin suddenly realized and immediately gave a look to Ma Wei behind him.
The latter understood and stepped back. After a while, he came back with a box in his hand and handed the box to Xiao Jin quietly.
Xiao Jin opened it and took a look first, then nodded with satisfaction.
"An An, don't be angry. See if you like this?"
An An was the nickname that the late imperial concubine gave to her daughter, meaning a peaceful life.
Xiao Jin watched Yueying help Shi Li comb her hair again, then tried to walk over and hand the box to her.
In the box is a complete set of water jade hairpins with flower themes. Each hairpin is carefully carved into the shape of a different flower, and is so exquisite that it is beyond belief.
Shi Li took a look and couldn't take her eyes off it. She couldn't help but reach out to take the box.
"Not angry anymore?" Xiao Jin looked at the obvious love on her face and curled up the corners of his mouth in pleasure.
"Brother, don't touch my head next time, otherwise I will be angry!" Shi Li answered very principledly.
Xiao Jin laughed.
"Okay, okay! No need to pat her head. Our An An is already a grown-up girl."
In such a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, Xiao Jin and Shi Li had lunch together.
Just as he had expected, he had dinner at the same table with Shi Li and had half a bowl of extra glutinous rice.
More importantly, after finishing the meal, all the fatigue from working on government affairs for the whole morning was swept away.
"Yueying, keep an eye on An'an and let her eat the fruit later."
Before Xiao Jin left, he still cared about Shi Li, and then he said to himself, "I don't know if Wen Yu has come up with a plan. I don't want to worry about it anymore."
Shi Li was just about to secretly put a grape into her mouth when she heard a familiar name. She paused for a moment and was then caught by Yueying.
"Princess, you can only eat the fruit half an hour later." Yueying smiled gently and took away the crystal plate containing the grapes.
Shi Li felt very embarrassed and put down her hand awkwardly.
Looking at Xiao Jin's leaving back, he hesitated for a while, "Oh, we can't eat fruit, Yueying, let's go out for a walk."
"Okay, where do you want to go, Princess?" Yueying asked cooperatively.
Shi Li stood up and touched her nose. For some reason, she always had the illusion that Yueying could see through her.
"Just take a walk, just take a stroll."
Although it is autumn, there are many flowers blooming in the palace garden.
In the refreshing autumn, the colorful flowers are no less beautiful than those in spring and summer.
Shi Li was absent-minded at first, but as she walked among the flowers, she was gradually attracted by the scenery and became intoxicated by it.
If such a beautiful scenery happened in her world, it would definitely become a popular check-in spot for internet celebrities, with more people than flowers. How could she enjoy it as comfortably as she was doing now?
Thinking about it this way, time travel is not a bad idea. At least you can enjoy the scenery that you can't normally see.
[Bah! Host, you tell me, are these the flowers you want to see? I am too embarrassed to expose you! ]
[Host, don’t think we didn’t hear who Xiao Jin mentioned before he left. We are not deaf~]
[Oh, stop talking about the anchor, just let her be an ostrich^ ^]
All kinds of comments disturbed Shi Li's mood of enjoying the scenery.
Her face flushed red, and she argued with the commentator relentlessly, "How can you...how can you slander someone's innocence out of thin air!"
【Hahaha~~~】
【A burst of joyful laughter rang out in the live broadcast room. 】
System message: User [Octopus Whale] initiated a bounty.
Reward request: Streamer, ignore them. I miss Wen Yu. Please take us to see her.
Reward: One [Night Pearl]
Shi Li choked up, looking at the meager bounty reward, and felt the obvious malice of the Octopus Whale.
But...it's really hard for her to refuse!
"Well, then go check it out! I just want to make money."
Shi Li finally succumbed to the temptation of the [Night Pearl].
The winding path leads to a secluded place, passing through a flower-filled garden. Not far ahead is the Imperial Library where the emperor and his ministers hold meetings.
Shi Li's mind has not yet been completely blinded by beauty and money.
When she got a little closer, she stopped moving forward and instead stayed where she was, pretending to admire the sparse trees around her.
"Yueying, I've seen so many flowers. I think these green trees are also beautiful, right?"
Shi Li sought approval with a guilty conscience.
"Yes, I think these trees are beautiful too." The gentle Yueying would never expose Shi Li.
However, the scene of the cute and lovely girl standing nervously under the tree, with the sunlight shining on her through the shadow of the tree, was really beautiful.
[Wow, Yueying is so gentle! I like it so much~]
[Lili is the group's favorite, Xiao Jin is like the father, and Yueying is like the mother! ]
【I really want to be the anchor! 】
The comments started to go off topic again.
However, Shi Li no longer cared about it. Out of the corner of her eye she saw a familiar figure walking out of the Imperial Library.
Shi Li blinked and turned her head to look over casually.
At the same time, Shao Quan also saw her.
There was a slight pause in his steps.
"Lord Shao?" Ma Wei, who was in charge of sending the person off, was not as sensible as Yueying. When he saw Shao Quan stop, he followed his gaze and looked over with surprise.
"Her Royal Highness the Princess is here?" Ma Wei was a little surprised, then immediately turned around and went back to report to Xiao Jin.
Shi Li: ...
I don't know why, but I feel mixed emotions.
Shao Quan also reacted and looked at her deeply. Although they were far apart, he still bowed to her.
Shi Li subconsciously wanted to wave back, but remembering her current identity, she forced herself to hold back, and curled her lips modestly with a faint smile.
A pair of bright eyes curved into the crescent moon that Shao Quan always thought of when it was quiet and no one was around.
