NovelEnglish49 Awkward
Xiao Juan loosened his almost frozen fist. His pale fingers gripped the handle of the umbrella, and his fingertips touched her hand.
His hand was cold, like a hard block of ice.
But her hand was warm and warm.
Seeing that he was drenched, Yu Niaoniao could not help but frown.
“If it’s raining, why don’t you find a place to hide?”
There was reproach in her tone, but it was not offensive at all. Instead, it was intimate.
Xiao Juan did not answer. He silently moved the oil paper umbrella in her direction and shielded her from the wind and rain as much as possible.
At that moment the coachman came down and opened his umbrella over Duke Lang.
Yu Niaoniao noticed the palace not far away.
There were many Imperial Guards standing near the palace gate. They were all wearing rain gear.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe Imperial Guards were watching her, too. To be precise, they were looking at the man standing beside her.
What kind of complicated look was that?
They looked cold, but they were actually afraid. There was deep fear hidden in them. It was as if they were looking at a ferocious beast that could devour him at any moment.
Yu Niaoniao originally wanted to ask why the Imperial Guards didn’t lend a set of rain gear to Duke Lang.
After seeing the look in the men’s eyes, she swallowed the words she was about to say.
Yu Niaoniao did not say anything else. She silently turned around and got into the carriage with Xiao Juan.
The carriage started slowly and soon disappeared into the misty rain.
In the car, Yu Niaoniao and Xiao Juan sat on opposite sides.
Water slid down the man’s handsome face and onto his ink-black robe.
Yu Niaoniao took out a silk handkerchief and handed it over.
“Wipe it off.”
The man neither reached out nor answered.
Yu Qianqian thought of the other party’s identity. As the Regional King, he should be used to being served.
Since the other party did not move, he was probably waiting for her to wipe him down.
“He’s quite difficult to serve,” Yu Niaoniao muttered softly as she reached out to wipe the rain off his face.
However, before the handkerchief could touch the man, he dodged.
Yu Niaoniao’s hand froze in midair.
She had taken the initiative to wipe someone’s face, but she was actually despised.
To be honest, it was quite awkward.
But who was she?
She was Yu Niaoniao!
As long as she wasn’t embarrassed, others would be!
Yu Niaoniao’s small hand trembled, and the silk handkerchief unfolded.
“Look, does my handkerchief look good? It’s my favorite handkerchief.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe made a point of shaking the silk handkerchief, her small face full of ostentation.
Xiao’s Juan gaze swept across the silk handkerchief.
It was a snow-white handkerchief with a fat fish swaying its head and tail embroidered on it. The words “Niaoniao” were embroidered in the corner beside it. The font was also round and fat, making it inexplicably cute. It was just the way he felt about herl.
The reason he avoided her just now was not that he despised her. He did not want to dirty her handkerchief.
He did not explain himself. Because he knew that even if he explained, no one would believe him. He was used to this.
Yu Niaoniao was a little bold.
She did not care if he answered or not. Her little mouth kept chattering without stopping.
By the time she returned to the prince’s residence, her throat was dry.
She picked up her teacup as soon as she entered and drank deeply.
Xiao Juan returned to the house to change his clothes. Granny Xiu Yan was still entertaining Yu Niaoniao.
“It’s been hard on Miss Yu this time.”
Yu Niaoniao put down her teacup. “His Highness was drenched in the rain. Get someone to cook some ginger tea for him to drive away the cold.”
Granny Xiu Yan’s expression became even more benevolent. “Miss Yu, don’t worry. I’ve already gotten someone to prepare ginger tea. The rain outside won’t stop for a while. Why don’t you stay for lunch?”
