At Azure Stream Villa, a gentle breeze brushed against the face, carrying with it the sweet fragrance of flowers from the garden. Zhao Huiyin tiptoed toward the pavilion on the other side of the garden, her steps light and cautious, like a wary cat.
A man was resting there, his eyes closed as if he were in deep slumber. Sunlight spilled over his face, outlining his handsome features. As she drew closer to take a better look, he suddenly opened his eyes, a sharp glint flashing within them as he quickly seized her outstretched hand. "What do you think you're doing?"
"Uh..." Caught off guard, Zhao Huiyin felt a twinge of guilt. How could she admit that she was captivated by his looks?
Her gaze flickered away, unable to meet his eyes directly.
Noticing the furrow in his brow, she hastily withdrew her hand and reached out to smooth the crease between his brows, her fingers lightly brushing against his forehead. "Hey, handsome, you can't waste your good looks like this... it doesn't look good..."
How vulgar!
She was completely oblivious to how shocking her actions were.
Luo Hanfei grasped her hand; his grip was warm and firm, and his expression turned serious. "Who exactly are you?"
"Just a poor girl lost in a foreign land."
Zhao Huiyin blinked innocently, continuing to play cute, her eyes fluttering like little fans. During her time recovering, she had exhausted every possible means to return home but had failed each time.
If she had to stay, she needed to ensure her future would be worry-free! So for now, relying on a wealthy patron was essential!
Moreover, she had heard that this wealthy man was actually a prince! She continued to flatter him, "So, will you take me in?"
Her face was adorned with an eager smile.
Luo Hanfei couldn't help but chuckle softly; his laughter was deep and pleasant. Releasing her hand, he propped his chin lazily on his palm and asked, "Take you in? What can you do for me?"
There was hope!
Zhao Huiyin grinned widely. "Anything you need!"
Her eyes sparkled brightly, like two twinkling stars.
Luo Hanfei raised an eyebrow, his expression curious. "Really, anything goes?"
His gaze roamed over her, carrying a hint of scrutiny.
Zhao Huiyin was about to nod in agreement when she noticed his eyes sweeping over her entire body, and she immediately froze. "I can ensure your safety! I can help you catch thieves!"
Please don’t misunderstand; she was a charming young police officer with dignity, not someone to warm a bed or bear children! Her eyes shone with determination.
Luo Hanfei shook his head regretfully, refusing her offer. "I don't need a woman to protect me!"
Zhao Huiyin grew anxious and jumped up. "What harm would it do just this once?"
Catching sight of a figure approaching slowly, Luo Hanfei smiled. "Are you really going to be my bodyguard?"
Zhao Huiyin nodded decisively, her head bobbing like a chick pecking at grain.
Luo Hanfei pointed to the woman coming closer and said, "From now on, you’re responsible for driving away all the annoying women."
"Uh..." Drive away women? What if they were difficult? Could she fight them? Hitting women seemed too cruel! She furrowed her brow, hesitation flickering in her eyes.
Noticing her uncertainty, Luo Hanfei smiled warmly. "You can use any means necessary."
His smile held a captivating power.
The prince had spoken; why should she care about any woman? Even if the emperor came, it wouldn’t stop her!
Zhao Huiyin turned and dashed forward. Her steps were quick, and just as she reached the front to say "stay back," she was overwhelmed by the strong scent of perfume from the approaching figure. The intense aroma made her sneeze twice, causing her body to shudder slightly.
Yunshuang frowned deeply, her brows knitted together as she disdainfully huffed, "I’m going to see the prince; get out of my way!"
Rubbing her nose, Zhao Huiyin straightened up like a proud rooster and retorted even louder than Yunshuang, "No one is allowed to enter here without permission!"
She shot a more contemptuous glance at Yunshuang, filled with provocation. "I don’t know which family’s frivolous woman you are, but how dare you try to flirt with our prince!"
She deliberately spoke loudly, hoping that Luo Hanfei would hear her. Hehe, she was a loyal servant, so please take her in!
Yunshuang was furious at being hit and turned to the Maid, saying, "Slap her!"
Zhao Huiyin was not one to be trifled with. With a swift motion, she blocked the attack and pushed the Maid into the lake with a clean and decisive movement.
Yunshuang also wanted to step forward, but Zhao Huiyin stretched out her long leg and tripped her, sending her tumbling into the water as well, splashing everywhere and leaving her in a sorry state.
The sycophantic little maid stepped forward to take credit, saying, "They shouldn't be coming back!"
Yunshuang and the Maid finally managed to climb out, soaked through and looking like two drowned rats. They turned back to curse at her while sneezing and made their way back.
Zhao Huiyin laughed heartily, doubling over with amusement. She felt Luo Hanfei lean closer to her cheek; his warm breath brushed against her skin, sending shivers down her spine and making her heart race. "Do you know who she is?" he asked.
Zhao Huiyin's face flushed as she felt her heart pounding like a drum in her chest. She struggled to control herself from pouncing like a wolf... She shook her head vigorously, like a rattle drum.
Luo Hanfei smiled and said, "The current Princess Yunshuang."
The smile on Zhao Huiyin's face shattered—
She had pushed the princess into the water!
