*Shatter*
The bone china cup in the princess's hand slipped when Sui tried to pry it open. The princess had lost her grip, causing the servants to gasp in surprise.
"Princess, let me see your hand. Are you bleeding? Do we need to bandage your hand? What are you all looking at? Hurry up and get medicine for the princess."
Sui took command of the situation as her worry took over.
Her orders were clear, yet the servants did not dare move.
They all looked at the princess and awaited her next order.
On the other hand, the princess had a lost expression.
She was blinking slowly and trying to gather her thoughts, and it was not until Sui looked at her hand that she realized what had happened to make everyone speechless.
'The princess is not bleeding. I must have mistaken the red of the bone China as blood. Thank god! I thought the princess had gotten hurt.'
Sui breathed a sigh of relief as she slowly let go of the princess.
But the princess was faster than Sui expected and grabbed her hand in return.
The princess said nothing, but her smile sent shivers down Sui's spine.
'Huh! Did I make a mistake? Did I get too ahead of myself? I should not have behaved with such familiarity.'
"P-Princess Yunjin, is everything alright?"
Sui asked in a careful but caring voice.
She pretended the princess was a small wounded animal who could lash out at any moment.
Surprisingly, the princess did not react or hurt Sui.
She only squeezed Sui's hand in return and blinked slowly to show she was still with Sui.
The princess was slowly coming out of whatever space she had gotten her head into, and Sui encouraged her along the way.
It was unfortunate that this calm atmosphere needed to be broken.
Minister Xiao made an explosive entry, his fake smile wilting at the scene he witnessed.
"What happened here? Did the princess-"
The minister did not finish his sentence, and he took the broken bone China on the ground before looking at the princess.
Sui could feel a burning glare looking her way, and the minister was no longer hiding his curiosity.
The princess noticed the unnatural attention that Sui was getting, and she quickly pulled Sui up.
"We will be leaving now. Minister Xiao, expect my visit tomorrow. Unlike today, it will be an official one."
Minister Xiao held back a loud yell when the princess's words registered in his mind.
'A-An official visit? This is the worst. I must ensure my useless son does not implement his plan tomorrow. There will be too many eyes on us.'
The minister freaked out inside his mind, but he showed a happy smile on the outside.
"Of course! Princess Yunjin is free to visit whenever she wishes to. I have nothing to hide from the gods and the authorities."
The minister bid the pair farewell before he quickly entered his house and began to make plans for the next day.
...
"..."
Sui followed the princess with a muted expression.
"Are you curious about our reason for visiting this place? I did drag you all the way here, and now we are returning empty-handed. Do you resent me for wasting your time?"
The princess asked teasingly, and her amusement was testing Sui's patience.
'Is that even a question? If you know you are bothering me, why did you still do it? And tomorrow will be the same as well, right?'
Sui was crying on the inside, but she forced herself to put on a cheerful face.
"Of course not! The princess has done nothing wrong. I am happy that you considered me worthy enough to escort you."
Sui quickly assured the princess.
The smirk on Princess Yunjin's face got slightly bigger and slicker. It made Sui's instincts rise in warning.
"Princess, I should go out and scout the area first. Please, excuse me-"
Sui walked past the princess, only for her shit to be grabbed.
A pair of solid arms warped themselves around Sui's middle and right below her bosom.
"You said you were happy to be my escort, right? Then, I don't need to hold my desire back. Sui, let's have some fun."
The princess leaned closer to Sui, and her face right before her.
Once again, they were too close to each other, and Sui's face reddened at the proximity.
'W-What is the princess planning on doing to me? What does her definition of 'fun' entitle? Don't tell me…is she…'
Sui's brain was running wild with imagination. Her mind refused to sit still or think of something appropriate.
The princess did not make it easy for Sui to keep her mind pure.
A teasing hand rubbed against Sui's arm and slowly headed to slot against Sui's smaller one.
The princess's eyes were a captivating blue, and their intensity held Sui hostage. She could not move even if she wanted to.
"So, what do you say? Would you like to have fun with me, Sui? I will back down if you refuse me now."
The princess asked, but Sui was only human.
She could not deny the princess when the older female looked at her with a face full of desire.
"Alright! I-I guess I can have some fun with the princess."
Sui agreed, causing the princess to smile the brightest smile Sui had seen to date.
The princess reached out toward Sui's face and pushed a lock of her black hair behind her ear. Her hand tickled Sui's sensitive ear, causing it to turn red.
"Good! This was an excellent decision."
The princess spoke in a husky voice, and Sui unconsciously closed her eyes.
Sui did not know what she was expecting to happen, but having the princess tug her toward the forest at full speed was not it.
"P-Princess, what are we doing? I thought we were going to have fun?"
Sui asked in a terrified voice as she ran behind the princess. Her short legs were having a difficult time keeping up with the blond devil.
"Oh! We are going to have fun. Just wait and watch Sui. I will show you a time you have never seen before in your life."
