And since the matter of Bai Yunxian was something sensitive and a pretty big deal, Yun Shu decided to let him stay in her own room for his safety.
It was something that she needed a long time to make a decision, but…
'What's wrong with this flowery fragrance?'
'Where does it come from?'
Yun Shu didn't have any garden in her courtyard, so she didn't know how the fragrance was coming. But the moment she looked up, she dropped the pen she was holding the moment she laid her eyes on him.
H-Hold on!
What was that?
Am I seeing things?
Her jaw almost dropped on the ground the moment she saw Bai Yunxian, who was wearing a female sexy cloth revealing half of his body.
Along with his make up and the lipstick that he put on, it was really an exciting site to see!
Bai Yunxian blushed even more when he saw how Yun Shu was looking at him, but it was strange that he was feeling rather shy than disgusted when those eyes lingered on him.
"W-What are you… Why are you wearing such clothes at nighttime?" Yun Shu stood up directly from her chair as she went towards Bai Yunxian quickly.
Bai Yunxian looked down as he said, "Isn't that what Your Highness ordered me to do?"
"When did I–" Yun Shu stopped in the middle of her sentence as she finally realized what was going on.
She told him to take a bath and come into her room, but she didn't mean something else by this!
So that was why they were looking at her with weird eyes?
Yun Shu herself realized the reality finally, so she took the robe from the chair as she went towards Bai Yunxian and put it over him directly.
"You are wearing too little clothes, the night wind is chilly. Don't wear such clothes at night ever again." Yun Shu said while she looked up at him.
Bai Yunxian was surprised as well, but he didn't say anything.
"And… sorry for the misunderstanding. I didn't mean anything when I asked you to take a bath and come into my room. It was just because you took a long journey to come to my house, so I wanted you to get fresh and take a little sleep, that's all. I didn't know Ah'Luo will think of it as something else."
"Next time I will briefly instruct her on something you need. Go over there and get some sleep now. I'll be watching over you." Yun Shu smiled as she patted his shoulder and told him to go back as she went back to her desk again.
Bai Yunxian looked at her with a big surprise on his face.
He didn't expect to get rejected by Yun Shu in a situation where he looked like this.
Was Yun Shu not interested in him at all?
Even when he dressed up so decently, man and woman nobody can resist his beauty, and if they saw him like this in a room alone, they won't think twice before ripping him apart.
But… he just went back like that?
No, shall I test him a little?
Bai Yunxian looked at Yun Shu as he called her with a seductive voice, "If I sleep here, where will you be sleeping, my lord?"
Hmm?
What was that?
Yun Shu looked up at Bai Yunxian once again.
Bai Yunxian was also looking at her with one hand in his mouth, biting his finger with a sexy pose.
Is he… trying to seduce me now?
He is testing me?
Should I tease him a little?
'Ha! He's really got some nerves! Trying to flirt with this old woman? You're still a newborn!'
Yun Shu smirked as she looked at Bai Yunxian, giving him the creeps.
Yun Shu walked over to Bai Yunxian directly as she gave off an evil smile.
Bai Yunxian was standing still while shivering as he broke into a cold sweat. He didn't think that this was actually going to work on Yun Shu.
Sure enough, men are all the same no matter how decent they are on the outside.
But since he already made the turn, there is no way to return.
Yun Shu walked closer towards Bai Yunxian as she cornered Bai Yunxian on the door as she put both her hands on his side, leaving no way for him to run off.
Then she leaned on him over his shoulder as she whispered in his ear, "I didn't expect that you would be this bold. I wanted to let you off the hook, but you came knocking on my door yourself. Are you sure you want it?"
Bai Yunxian's breathing became hard as he felt the fresh scent of mint coming from Yun Shu as he looked away and nodded his head quietly.
"Your Highness, I know that there is no such thing like a free meal in this world. I know that I have to pay a price for the things I get from you as well."
"Your Highness, I'm ready to do anything as long as you help my mother to recover." Bai Yunxian said with a firm voice.
Yun Shu frowned a little when she heard the desperate voice when he said the words.
But she quickly changed her face as she revealed a smile as she stood back from Bai Yunxian.
"You said you are ready to do anything, right? Then come with me." She grabbed his hand as she took him inside the study.
"Go, sit over there." Yun Shu ordered the guy to sit on the bed as she pointed to the location.
Bai Yunxian was dumbfounded, but he did as she said without asking any further.
"Lie down." Yun Shu said once again.
'Is he preparing to do 'that'?'
Bai Yunxian flinched at the thought but he didn't dare to look up. He didn't wish to see that disgusting lustful stare of his savior.
