Bai Yu: "..."
The little eunuch who brought the people in nudged Bai Yu aside with his hip, beckoning the ten to enter.
The ten stood in a row, the oldest being eighteen, the youngest fifteen. Each had fair skin, good looks, long legs, broad shoulders, narrow waists, and captivating eyes.
Bai Yu gritted his molars and stepped forward, unexpectedly standing at the end of the line.
Once he blended into the group, the originally handso young n suddenly lost their luster and beca quite ordinary.
The little eunuch squinted his eyes; this ti, he ca with a task.
The Young Master Bai has been at the border for over half a year. The King with a Different Surna frequently visits the palace for tea with His Majesty, yet the conversation always displeases the father emperor.
His Majesty thought that if even after half a year, Bai Yu couldn’t win over Her Highness the Eldest Princess, he shouldn’t be wasting her valuable ti at the border. Due to his arrival, His Majesty hadn’t bestowed beautiful n for more than half a year. This ti he ignored it and continued sending people, along with a decree summoning him back to the palace.
Her Highness the Eldest Princess glanced over the ten people one by one, not sparing Bai Yu a single look. She casually pointed at one person, "Co, grind ink."
That person was about to approach the Eldest Princess but was shoved aside by Bai Yu, who muttered, "I’ll do it!"
He was just about to grind the ink for Her Highness the Eldest Princess when she coldly said, "It’s not necessary."
Bai Yu pressed his lips together, saying nothing, but his eyes fixed on her, as if filled with unspoken words, mixed with grievance and unwillingness.
The Eldest Princess cast a glance, lowered her eyes, and said indifferently, "Let them rest first."
Little eunuch: "Yes!"
Before leaving, the little eunuch grinned, "Young Master Bai, this ti I’ve brought a decree; His Majesty summons you back to the palace."
Bai Yu’s body went rigid.
After everyone left, only Bai Yu and the Eldest Princess were left in the military tent.
"Why did you keep them?"
The Eldest Princess chuckled lightly: "Before you ca, I kept many people, but I got tired of them and let them go."
"You... you’re not that kind of person."
"Every month, my father sends people over; surely many in the Imperial City know? After you ca, it paused for half a year. But now, you’re leaving, so they’ll probably continue sending people every month."
"They can stay, but I can’t?" Bai Yu’s eyes deepened, carrying a hint of inquiry.
The Eldest Princess replied indifferently, "They don’t need a title, but Young Master Bai, with your noble status, without a title, it’s not proper."
"I don’t need a title." He gritted his teeth and said.
The Eldest Princess sneered, "Once I touch you, you may not need it, but will the Bai Family let it go? Or the King with a Different Surna let it go? Under such pressure, I would have to give it even if I didn’t want to."
Bai Yu’s hand fell on his belt, giving it a sharp tug, his robe flaring open, revealing his well-defined physique. "If I don’t say, and you don’t say, who would know?"
He suddenly leaned in, his breath hot against her ear, "Your Highness, before I leave, won’t you take ?"
The Eldest Princess: "..."
Her ears turned red, but her face grew colder.
She reached out to push him away, her disgusted gaze sweeping over his exposed chest, expressionless, "To think the King’s grandson, the Bai Family’s offspring, would offer himself so lowly!"
"Yes, I’m being lowly, so, Your Highness, will you care for ?"
"I don’t fancy you."
The Eldest Princess bypassed him and walked toward the entrance of the tent.
Before she could step out, she was forcefully pulled back, enveloped entirely in his arms.
There was a flicker of astonishnt in the Eldest Princess’s eyes!
He had such strength?
The Eldest Princess reached out to push him away, yet she couldn’t budge him!
Her strength, was it no match for his?
