The little maid started to cry, and no sooner had she shouted this out than Princess Daisy immediately stopped her, "Shut your mouth!"
The little maid immediately closed her mouth.
The education she'd received since childhood prevented her from speaking carelessly.
But her eyes looked imploringly towards Ye Xie.
Ye Xie stared at the little maid.
He clenched his jaw, glanced at Daisy, and having understood what was going on, he spoke directly, "Speak."
The little maid looked at Daisy.
Daisy simply said, "I'm fine, really, it's my maid who was too talkative, she offended Karl, and that's why Karl punished her. Karl wouldn't normally do this..."
She didn't want to show her unseemly side in front of the person she liked.
Princess Daisy had her own pride too.
For years, every time Ye Xie had asked how she was doing, her response had always been that she was fine...
Ye Xie seemed to believe her, "Oh, as long as you're okay."
Daisy breathed a sigh of relief.
