In the evening, the iqiao resorted to her old antics — faking an illness
In this world, there were aillness because it didn’t require any props or preparation You just had to plop into bed, pull up the sheets, sniffle a few ti about it nor force her, so in the end he’d walk aith a stony face
As soon as her old qiao would kick off the sheets with her back foot, giggling with laughter!
If Dongxi strained her ears, she could faintly hear her , “Fake illnesses, I love you~ I love you~♪ Just like a mouse that loves rice~♪”[5]
Curling her lips, the arded that wearisome display with a shake of her head — she’d already heard hercountless times, and every time only the first ould be different: “xxxXXI love you~ I love you~♪ Just like a mouse that loves rice~♪”
Miss Gu never gets tired, she thought
Dongxi was not an ordinary servant She had an incredibly high level of tolerance, and she had long ago gotten used to her e escapades

“Why do I have to wear ittime travel[6]? Why do I have to wear ittime travel?! Tell me why do I have to wear ittime travel?!!”
“…Because… if you don’t wear ittirabbed and shaken so violently by her round and yet soasp those feords out
Qingqiao grew miraculously silent
“…You’re right” The young ave her a bizarre set cold”
Then she released her and tenderly exaxi’s arms
“I’tao” Qingqiao’s voice was extre bubble that slowly drifted in the air “Froe Sect[7]!”
Brother Jingtao? Rage Sect?
Dongxi was mystified when she heard this, but at that moment, she couldn’t help but think that her mistress was so beautiful
A billion times more beautiful than any other person she had met[8]
It was a pity that since then, Miss Gu went back to norh she would occasionally sigh, “To be honest, I really don’t want to wear anythingtime travel…”
There were tiht to become a “loser”
“Why?” Her father would hear and get angry
“Because even if all else failstitime travel[9]”
Miss Gu smiled sweetly, and looked exceptionally beautiful

Looking at the beauty as huxi could not help but speak up: “Miss, the person who is attending the banquet today is the super-famous Prince Duan Yuduan Don’t you want to take a peek?”
The e mouthful of tea with a “pfuu” sound
Dongxi quietly shi+fted a little bit further away in ust
“Duanyu[10]? Is there really a prince with that name?” The mistress stared at her blankly, after which she ihed towards the sky “Aiyaa, my poor hero Qiao, if only A’zhu…[11]”
Dongxi tsked as the babblings of her rief, started again

Qingqiao’s storowl and she could not sit still anymore
Since her current body was used to being treated like royalty, her biological clock was tightly fixed If she didn’t eat soon, it was quite likely that she’d get a stomachache
She thought and thought to herself, before finally instinct her stomach triumphed over reason She draped on a black robe and sneakily crept outside
It was a dark and storht, the perfect conditions to pilfer some tasty food
She fu the door open to steal a peek A pot on the stove was blowing hot stea arohout the room Beside the pot was a small white porcelain bowl that was covered — even without looking, she knew that fresh rice was inside
A’da, I love you~ I love you~♪ Just like a mouse that loves rice~♪
She sang praises in her heart

She opened the pot to nab sowas so delicious
Since the little pot was still stewing, she stood there, alternating between picking pieces ofmouthfuls of rice while she reminisced about the one person in the universe whose food she loved the most
The hot stea a shi+ny coat of water droplets on her cheeks
“Why are you crying?” a voice suddenly asked her
“Because this ood”
She subconsciously responded as she turned her head around
