"God, Yang Yang, the life of a royal is really something. I do not regret coming here." Yi Hua says, all excited and happy, flapping her hands and splashing the water around, she runs the tips of her hand against the water, repelling the rose petals floating on the surface.
"I can see that." Lu Yang Yang says, lazily, lying on the top of the cupboard around the corner, Yi Hua giggles, just then a few maids walk in, "My lady, we are here to help you." One of the maids speaks.
Yi Hua nods her head growing excited as to how they would help her, the maids all crouch down on their knees and Yi Hua frowns watching them, "What are you doing?" She asks.
"Helping you, My Lady." They all speak in unison, Yi Hua blinks her eyes but gasps, startled by the number of hands brushing against hers, "What are you all doing?!" She shouts, screeching horrified.
The maid all looked at Yi Hua, shocked, "My Lady, we are helping you get clean." One of the other maids speaks, hanging her head low, Lu Yang Yang laughs, "Let them do what they are used to and you get used to it. There are perks and harm with being a royal."
Yi Hua bites her lips and leans against the tub, "Go on." she mutters, flushing red in embarrassment while her eyes remain twitching at Lu Yang Yang who was laughing at her.
"Ah." Yi Hua yelps, and the maid widens her eyes, "My apologies, My lady!" The maid shouts, leaning her head against the ground and growing scared. "It's fine. My body is kinda sore so I have aches. Can you please massage my arms?" She asks, politely watching the maid with puppy eyes.
The maid slowly raises her head and gasps, "Yeah…My lady." The maid, along with the rest, starts massaging her arm as she closes her eyes and hums in pleasure.
"My Lady…it's time for you to get dressed." Yi Hua finds herself stirring up from her sleep by the maid's voice, she lazily opens her eyes and then closes them back with the amount of relaxation she has been feeling lying in the tub so comfortably.
"My Lady…My Lady?" The maid calls out for her, slowly tugging her, "Yah! Hua! Wake up!" Lu Yang Yang shouts, getting off of the shelf and roaming above her head.
Yi Hua hmms and moves around, raising her hands up off the water, she rubs her eyes, slowly peeking her eyes open she raises her head. Yawning, she stretches her arms but shrieks when she finds the number of eyes on her, "What are you all looking at?!" She shouts, covering her exposed chest.
"My Lady…you should get dressed." Yi Hua bites her lips and looks at Lu Yang Yang, "And what are you looking at me for?" The maids frown but they all look away, Lu Yang Yang scoffs and looks away, "I can dress myself up. You all can go." Yi Hua says, eyeing the maids.
The maids stand up and bow their heads before they disperse away, "Ah, I had such a sound sleep. I feel fresh." She mutters, walking out of the tub, she looks around for her clothes, and she finds her clothes stacked properly on the shelf.
She walks to the shelf and goes through the clothes, she frowns, "Eh? Where is the bra?" She asks, checking the pile, again and again, she scoffs, looks around for a towel, and cursing under her breath she wraps the robe around her.
"Maids!" She calls out loud, and the maid scurries in a hurry, "Yes, My Lady." They speak in unison, Yi Hua licks her lips and looks around, "Help me dress up. I changed my mind." She says, growing embarrassed.
The maids scurry over to her, grabbing a small cloth, two of the maid hesitantly grab the robe, trying to pull it off of her, Yi Hua tightens her grip against the robe, "I want none of your eyes on me." Yi Hua says, sternly.
"Yes, My Lady!" They shout, looking away and pulling the robe off of her, Yi Hua blushes and watches as if they were peeking at her, one of the maids walks ahead with her eyes closed.
"My Lady, please…put this on."
Yi Hua heaves out a sigh, grabbing a hold of the cropped binding from the maid's hand, 'I hope this doesn't hurt.' She thinks to herself and wraps the bind across her chest and kames a knot by the side.
"This too, My Lady." Another maid hands her light trousers, and she puts them on, "Can we look at you now?" The same maid who handed her the trouser, Yi Hua looks at herself and clears her throat, "Yeah, you can." She says, nodding her head.
And then all the maids help her put on the long sleeve cloth till her belly, then a light green colored outer which flowed down her legs on the top while a pair of colorful skirts matched with her upper.
She swirls around and grins as her dress swirls with her, she smiles at how beautiful the dress looked, "Now, it's time for your hair, My Lady." The maid says, bowing her head down and within the same position the maid gestures to her to walk in the said direction.
Yi Hua nods her head, walking out of the room and eyeing around what she supposed was the corridor, she walks ahead just to be interrupted by the maid, "My Lady, your room is this way." The maid frowns, and Yi Hua awkwardly chuckles and turns around.
"Oh right…I-I… am just looking for Lin Yi. Where is she?" Yi Hua asks, suddenly she gets enlightened about Lin Yi's disappearance around her.
Yi Hua looks at the maid for an answer but all the maid act suspicious as they share a glance and avoid looking towards Yi Hua, Yi Hua find them irritating as they ignore her words, "I asked something!" She shouts, approaching them.
All the maids move a step back, startled and scared, "M-My Lady…" One of the maids speaks, "What? Where is she?" She asks, stern yet agitated.
"She is in the prison." The maid says, Yi Hua widens her eyes, gasping out loud.
