Chapter 18: Sleep with Him?

Both Yun Ming and Yun Xian’s eyes sparkled as they ran out without looking back.

“Let’s go! Wait for me too!” Yun Chu also spared a glance at Yun Shu before he ran out to catch up to them as well.

“Fine then, you two go back and have some rest. I still have some matters to take care of,” Yun Xuan nodded his head as he sighed deeply before moving inside to work.

‘The matter is done for now, I can take care of other things later.’

Yun Shu looked at her mother happily before she bowed towards her and took Bai Yunxian out with her to leave the place.

Meanwhile,

Bai Yunxian was totally speechless and choked after he witnessed the Yun family’s way of interaction.

‘The matter was over just like that!’

He still couldn’t believe the crazy things that were happening till now.

But it was something he really looked forward to as well.

His Independence laid on the hands of this guy beside him…

Bai Yunxian thought as he looked at the person beside him quietly with an indescribable expression.

***

Yun Shu was quite in a good mood because today, everything went well just like she planned.

And all she needed to do was now to take care of the state affairs she had in her hand for now.

Then tomorrow she can take a full day rest!

Heh! Being an Official of a Grand Kingdom was just this much easier!

Of course it’s because she was a modern woman along with a high experience in office work duh!

Those who work hard daily 9-5 knows what a pain it is to get things done and yet after all this effort, how it feels like to get scolded by the boss in the most shameful way, alright?

Yun Shu already reached her courtyard while thinking about all this absentmindedly, as she completely forgot about a certain someone who also followed her all the way here like an innocent rabbit!

Ah’Luo also saw the person who followed her Master here. But when she looked at Yun Shu, she was certain about what was going on.

So she coughed a little to get Yun Shu back in the world.

Cough!

“Your Highness!”

The voice came from Ah’Luo finally dragged Yun Shu back into the world from her imagination as she looked at the girl in front of her.

“Ahem! What is it? You have something to say, Ah’Luo?” Yun Shu was also a little flustered, so she coughed as she asked the little maid about what’s going on.

“Your Highness, did you… bring Lady Bai with you as well?” Ah’Luo glanced behind Yun Shu as she directed Yun Shu.

‘Crap! I completely forgot about him!’

Yun Shu really wished to slap herself, but she looked back to see the timid person that blinked at her innocently.

‘Did he… follow me all the way till here all this while?’

“Your Highness! I… I don’t know where to go or anything else here! So I-I followed you here in the courtyard!” Bai Yunxian tried to explain when he saw the confused face of Yun Shu.

‘Is he afraid of getting misunderstood? How cute!’

Yun Shu smiled after she saw his cute and innocent expression.

Bai Yunxian was such an honest and good guy, it’s just that he got such bad luck to go through so much struggle and rubbish to live a good life.

“It’s good that you followed me here. Anyway, it’s not like I prepared a different courtyard for you to live in such a short amount of time.”

“So originally, I was going to ask you to follow me. But now that you are here, then it’s settled! Come inside and take a bath to freshen up!” Yun Shu said with a brilliant smile on her face.

“…”

‘What’s wrong? Why are they looking at me like that?’

Yun Shu became awkward when the courtyard suddenly fell in a dead silence.

“Umm… is there something you guys want to say?” She asked while looking at them with an awkward smile.

‘My lady, do you know what you are talking about?’

Ah’Luo thought as she glanced at Yun Shu.

Meanwhile,

‘T-Taking a bath? Sleep with him in the same room? I-Is he crazy?’

Bai Yunxian’s imagination ran wild before he reached a conclusion.

Both Bai Yunxian and Ah’Luo were stupefied after they heard Yun Shu’s announcement.

‘He is just the same as those bastards… I wonder why I got my hopes up for him? I was just being too delusional.’

Bai Yunxian thought as a bitter smile appeared on his face.

But Yun Shu failed to notice the expression in his face due to the darkness of night.

“Just do as I said. I know what I am doing.” confused, Yun Shu just sighed as she turned back and went inside her room without standing for their reply.

Her body was sore all over due to the work all day, and she has to overwork at night today to complete the remaining paper works.

Being a lord wasn’t easy at all!

***

After one and half an hour,

The door opened with a creak sound as a shadow appeared.

Yun Shu also finally snapped out of her busy mind from work.

‘Who was it?’

“May I come in, Your Highness?”

‘Oh, it’s Bai Yunxian.’

“Come in.” Yun Shu didn’t think much as she called Bai Yunxian to come inside.

‘So it’s something I can not avoid.’

Bai Yunxian sighed and clenched both his hand as he looked down at the dress he was wearing.

‘Fine, since I can’t avoid it, then let’s face it with a brave face!’

Bai Yunxian took a deep breath as he opened the door and walked inside with a fighting spirit.

As her work was pretty long and it took a lot of her time, Yun Shu liked to work in her bedroom instead of her study, so that she can take a quick nap during her working overtime.
