Chapter 72 - You Break It You Buy It! (1/2)

Princess Bang-gwi screamed "Noooo!" just as Chuhan Jwi dumped her into the ice cold bath. When she pulled her head out from under the water she inhaled sharply and glared furiously at Chuhan Jwi.

"I HATE you, warn me next time!" Princess Bang-gwi said with chattering teeth.

Chuhan Jwi smiled at the Princess and said "What fun would that be?"

Shortly after the Princess's door was flung open wide and Xiǎng Pigu came rushing in followed by a few more soldiers. "Princess! Is everything alright!?!"

Xiǎng Pigu and the rest didn't see anyone in her room and heard splashing from the bathroom so they moved to the bathroom to find the Princess in the tub and Chuhan Jwi kneeling next to her.

"Princess!" Xiǎng Pigu exclaimed then her face flushed red as she saw that the Princess was naked and quickly turned away and pushed everyone else out, especially the males that were mixed into the group before they could see her.

"Pi! I'm sorry! Jwi dropped me into the tub without warning and the water was so cold I screamed!" The Princess said apologetically.

Xiǎng Pigu shooed everyone else out and then walked back into the bathroom with the Princess and Chuhan Jwi. "I'm sorry Princess… I mean… Ban. I thought maybe you were in trouble!"

The Princess laughed and said "It's ok, I'm actually glad to see everyone come in so quickly!"

Looking at the icy bath water, Xiǎng Pigu thought of something and asked "Are you sore from yesterday's training and drills?"

"Yes, Jwi is helping relieve the muscle ache…"

"Oh ok! Ban! I'll bring you some breakfast!" Xiǎng Pigu said with enthusiasm.

"Oh, that's fine! Jwi said she will get it, I do have something you can do for me though."

"Of course, what is it?"

The Princess motioned for Xiǎng Pigu to come closer and waited for her to get to the edge of the tub. Then the Princess beckoned her to get lower and then made a gesture like she wanted to whisper something to her. Xiǎng Pigu then bent over the tub and listened really close to the Princess while the Princess leaned to whisper in her ear.

"Join me…" The Princess grabbed Xiǎng Pigu and pulled her into the tub with her as Xiǎng Pigu flailed around splashing the water everywhere getting even Chuhan Jwi wet amid the Princess's joyful laughter.

The Princess and Xiǎng Pigu eventually got out of the tub and Chuhan Jwi went and got both of them breakfast just in case Xiǎng Pigu hadn't had it yet. Xiǎng Pigu changed into one of the Princess's extra jumpsuits and then they both had breakfast together. Princess Bang-gwi was only 19 where as Xiǎng Pigu was 24, but since Princess Bang-gwi was sheltered most of her life she didn't have anyone to gossip with so finally having someone to gossip with could be considered a dream come true for her.

"So Pi, what do you think of Miss Maven, she's my idol!" Princess Bang-gwi said excitedly.

Xiǎng Pigu thought for a moment "Honestly, I'm more into boy bands and k-pop*! I think she is talented and beautiful, but her music isn't to my liking."

(*k-pop = Korean Pop)

Princess Bang-gwi pouted slightly "We can't be sisters then!" in an exaggerated tone.

Xiǎng Pigu got flustered and said "B-but I'm sure I can grow to like it too!"

The Princess laughed and said "I'm just teasing you, I'm really glad you gave me your honest opinion, the other girls my age were either avoiding me in classes or would suck up to me and would say whatever they think I wanted to hear."

Xiǎng Pigu blushed and said "Well, to be honest, your original song was very touching… Who was that song for or who was it about?"

The Princess smiled wryly and said "It will be for my first heartbreak, so whomever breaks my heart first, he or she will have to think about me and what they did every time they hear that song."

"That's… awful…" Xiǎng Pigu said.

"I know right? So to any potential heart breakers I am already prepared!"

Chuhan Jwi laughed quietly and thought to herself "Princess, you're going to be the heart breaker…"
