As the imperial guard imagined the possibilities, Pei Qianhao was already standing in front of Su Xi-er's door . Looking at the closed door, Pei Qianhao felt inexplicably annoyed .
Boom!
With a loud bang, the door was kicked open by Pei Qianhao .
Su Xi-er jumped when she heard the loud sound, nearly stabbing her hand with the needle that she was using to sew .
Everything in the room was in plain sight as the door fell to the ground .
Su Xi-er was currently sitting on the edge of the bed with a needle and thread in one hand, while some coa . r . s . e clothes occupied the other . It wasn't hard to see that Su Xi-er was just sewing the clothes that belonged to the female cook .

"Prince Hao, don't you know that you need to knock before entering a woman's room?" That being said, it seems that Pei Qianhao has never once done that . . .
Su Xi-er stopped sewing as she spoke . If he kicks the door in one more time, I won't be able to stand it anymore .
Pei Qianhao stood at the entrance of the door and looked at the woman inside . Do I need to knock to enter her room? Others have begged me to do so, but I didn't deign to give them a second thought . Yet this woman is not only displeased, she even rebuked me .
"When has this prince ever knocked before entering your room? Still not used to it? Besides, what's your position?" He indirectly reminded Su Xi-er to not forget her status . Right now, she was just a maidservant by his side .
Putting down the things in her hands, Su Xi-er stood up and bowed . "This servant pays her respects to Prince Hao; this servant has never forgotten my position . "

She knows how to act with a sense of propriety . That's very clever of her . But even though I sometimes praise her for it, I also loathe such cleverness at times .
Pei Qianhao didn't reply to Su Xi-er, closing the door behind him and walking into the room .
"Did you stay in your room for the entire day today?" Pei Qianhao purposely asked as he looked at the sewing needles and coa . r . s . e clothes on the bed .
Su Xi-er replied with an affirmative and stayed quietly by the side without saying anything else .
Pei Qianhao's eyes froze and looked at Su Xi-er's composed expression . This woman grows more daring by the day .
"You didn't see Prince Yun?"

It was impossible to hide this from Pei Qianhao, so Su Xi-er answered truthfully . "I did . Prince Yun came to the backyard by himself . "
She didn't lie and directly admitted it! At least she's still honest! Pei Qianhao's found his anger subside a little .
Looking at Su Xi-er with raised eyebrows, Pei Qianhao asked again . "Are you acquainted with Yun Ruofeng?"
Right afterwards, even he felt that the question was ridiculous . Su Xi-er entered Beimin's imperial palace from a young age and served as a maidservant in the Palace Side Quarters; how can she be acquainted with Yun Ruofeng?
However, even though it was ridiculous, he still couldn't help but ask .
Su Xi-er's heart trembled . Could it be that Pei Qianhao has noticed something?
I don't believe that he could have seen through my act, so Pei Qianhao must be just asking at random .
With that, Su Xi-er's heartbeat returned to normal . Both my ident . i . ty and appearance have completely changed; no one will recognise 'me' .
"Prince Hao, you worry too much . I entered the palace from a very young age, so how could I have travelled so far to Nanzhao to meet some Prince Yun?" Su Xi-er's lashes flickered slightly, looking enticing .
As I expected, she's giving me this kind of answer . Pei Qianhao was not surprised, but his face darkened as he approached Su Xi-er step by step . Grudgingly, Su Xi-er was forced to step backwards .
