Chapter 247 I seem to have fallen in love with you
It was already dusk when the two returned to the prince's palace.
Lin Jiaojiao sat at the table sorting out the things she had bought today, as well as the two brocade boxes on the dressing table, which contained exquisite hairpins.
She sighed as she looked at these little items. It was such a pity that she couldn't take them home. How annoying.
Qi Yao sat opposite her, holding his chin with one hand and looking at her tenderly. He couldn't wait to organize her little things as soon as he came back, and he kept muttering to himself.
He then realized that she was going to give the jade bead and red string bracelet to Lan Ling and the others. He lowered his eyes and looked at the red string on his wrist that she had just put on him, and smiled helplessly.
I really want to take away all the remaining red ropes she has.
Lin Jiaojiao had packed up her things and was about to put them in a small wooden box and lock it up when he interrupted her softly.
"Jiaojiao, put it in your magic box."
"Ok?"
She looked up at him in confusion. Usually, when she wanted to take something out of the space or put it back into the space, although he didn't say anything, his eyes and actions showed disapproval.
He stood up and walked behind her to massage her shoulders, then leaned over and whispered softly in her ear.
"Keep it safe and don't lose it."
She just felt her whole ear itchy, so she listened to him and obediently put everything on the table into the space.
He looked at her crystal clear earlobe which turned red and looked so adorable, smiled and moved closer to take it into his mouth.
She felt the wetness and heat in her ears and her eyes widened, then her face quickly turned red and her hands tightly grasped the clothes on her thighs.
How can my brother attack me by surprise?
Just as she was nervously looking forward to his next move, the warmth wrapped around her earlobe quickly disappeared, and even the gentle hands on her shoulders were gone.
"Jiaojiao is ready to eat."
"understood."
She heard his footsteps walking towards the next room, and she felt relieved, but still felt lost.
She and he had very little close contact these days, at most they held hands and hugged. She actually wanted to kiss him, but she felt that a girl should not be so proactive and should be more reserved.
He even thought at night that it would be nice if he could hold her while sleeping like he used to.
When she thought of this, she immediately covered her face with her hands. How could she become so lustful!
It’s all my brother’s fault.
Correct!
It's all my brother's fault.
Qi Yao suppressed his restlessness and went to sit in the dining room next door. He took the hot tea poured by Lan Ling and took a sip, listening to her saying that everything had been arranged and they were just waiting for his orders.
He stroked the teacup in his hand for a long time without saying a word. Just when Lan Ling thought that the action would be delayed again, a sigh fell softly.
"It's the fourth watch tonight. Go down."
"Yes."
Lan Ling bowed and left after receiving the order. It should have been a happy thing as her master did not indulge in this feeling. However, she felt sad. She suppressed her urge to look back at Lin Jiaojiao's room and quickened her pace to leave.
Lin Jiaojiao also calmed down her mood in the house, and came to the dining room shyly, but when she saw the figure in front of the dining table, her ears became hot, and she stopped and walked over embarrassedly.
Qi Yao also heard the noise, and took the bowl and scooped some medicinal soup for her while speaking softly.
"Why are you just standing there? If you don't come to eat, the food will get cold."
She suddenly became unhappy when she heard his voice so calm and indifferent, as if nothing had happened just now.
Bad brother.
She walked slowly to the dining table and sat down in a sulky manner. If he didn't coax her, she would not talk to him!
Qi Yao saw that her little thoughts were written all over her face without any concealment, so he wanted to tease her and ignored her and started eating.
Lin Jiaojiao waited for a long time but he didn't try to coax her. She began to doubt herself. Did he no longer like her? Then she immediately denied it. If he didn't like her, he wouldn't have done such a shameful thing to her before.
He must have not yet realized that she was unhappy.
"Humph."
He remained unmoved.
"Humph."
"Hum hum…"
He finally moved, but he put down his bowl and chopsticks, stood up from the table and walked into the house.
She couldn't hold back any longer and complained: "Brother is a big bad guy. I don't like you anymore, hum."
He then turned his grief and anger into appetite and numbed his emotions by eating the table full of delicious food.
This baby pigeon is really delicious. I never get tired of eating it every day. It is so tender and juicy.
When Qi Yao came back, he saw that the person was fine and was eating very happily. However, when he saw him come back, he restrained himself and pretended to be very angry.
He laughed and said, "Why doesn't the little pig hum?"
She immediately retorted: "Who is the piglet? I am not one anyway."
"Then why did I hear a piglet humming while I was eating just now? I thought a piglet came in."
Lin Jiaojiao suddenly became angry and turned around to tickle him, but he hugged her in his arms instead. She could feel the slight vibration of his chest, and also heard laughter from above her head.
"Hahaha, caught the piggy..."
Without the cold tone from before, her restless mood was instantly calmed down. Instead, she hugged his waist tightly and rubbed her cheek against his chest, pouting coquettishly.
"Brother is so mean, you only know how to tease me. Don't do that next time. I... I'm afraid you will really ignore me, and I will be very sad..."
His laughter stopped abruptly. He lowered his eyes and reached out to gently stroke her hair. His suddenly dry throat made him at a loss as to how to start.
She waited for a long time but he didn't reply. She raised her head and met his deep eyes. There was deep affection in his narrow and long eyes, but underneath the affection there was also endless reluctance.
Moved by emotion.
When she opened her red lips slightly to confess her love, his face got closer and closer. She felt the hot and soft touch on her lips, gradually falling into a deeper exploration, and she slowly closed her eyes.
After a long time, he finally let her go. He opened his passionate eyes and placed his forehead on hers, feeling each other's somewhat rapid breathing.
His Adam's apple slid and his voice became hoarse and lingering.
"Lin Jiaojiao, I seem to have fallen in love with you."
...
Lin Jiaojiao sat in the bathtub. Her cheeks were extremely red and her head was a little dizzy, perhaps because she had soaked in the bathtub for too long or because she was feeling suffocated.
But when she thought of the passionate kiss and the affectionate confession, she covered her face shyly. How could it be so seductive!
But when she remembered that she had not yet expressed her love, she lowered her hand and gently tapped the water, making a small splash.
She raised her left hand and looked at the Buddhist beads bracelet on her wrist. This was something he took out when she was about to express her love to him. She didn't react until he put it on her wrist.
Having missed the best time to confess her love, she was too embarrassed to speak again and could only wait for the next suitable opportunity.
She shook her wrist and listened to the sound of the Buddhist beads colliding with each other. Although it didn't suit her style, when she thought about the fact that it was a gift from him when he confessed his love to her, she thought it looked pretty good.
He said that he had asked for this in Qingyu Temple when he first came back, and it could keep her safe and healthy.
No wonder I didn’t see him in the first few days. It turned out that he went to pray for her safety.
"Jiaojiao?"
When she heard the noise coming from the next room, she realized that she had been soaking in the bath for a long time and quickly got up and got out of the tub.
"I'm here, brother."
He could already hear the sound of water splashing in the room, so she must have finished washing and gotten up.
"Well, do you need help, brother?"
"Right away, I'll get dressed first."
"Okay, don't worry."
She quickly wiped her body clean and changed into plain white underwear. In fact, she had modern and comfortable pajamas in her space, but he didn't let her wear them, so she gave up.
After putting on her clothes, she trotted to the door, opened it to let the person in, and then happily walked to the dressing table and sat waiting.
Qi Yao walked in with a smile, picked up the handkerchief on the table, came behind her, wiped her wet hair, and listened to her humming a strange tune.
"What makes you so happy?"
"Humph, I won't tell you."
Asking knowingly.
Lin Jiaojiao said this proudly when she suddenly glanced at the three red strings of jade beads on the table. She then realized that she hadn't seen Lan Ling and Lan Qi tonight. Normally, they would come to him to discuss matters after dinner, but it seemed that she would only see them tomorrow.
I don’t know if Lan Jiu has come back.
She reached out and put the red rope into the space. She had originally planned to give it to someone when she saw them tonight, but since she didn't see them tonight, she had to put it away first and take it out tomorrow.
Qi Yao also noticed her little movements, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, but when he saw her yawning for the first time and rubbing her eyes, his happy mood turned bitter.
"Jiaojiao, do you want to sleep with your brother tonight?"
