Chapter 2648: Chapter 132: Did You Miss Me, You Brat?
A tiny bundle like a kitten back then, who would have imagined such blessings today.
"These are the items sent by the prince. There’s some cloth inside. It seems to be for the young lady, and the madam asked this old servant to bring it."
The little maid beside her stepped forward and placed the items on the table, with two brocade boxes on top of the cloth.
"These were mixed in with everything else," Nanny Yang pointed at the boxes, "Judging by the gift list, they’re likely meant for the young lady."
Nanny Yang finished speaking, then sat for a while longer before leaving.
Only then did Li Luru open the boxes, which surprisingly contained a pair of rings and a pair of phoenix hairpins. No wonder it was said to be a gift for her; phoenix hairpins aren’t something just anyone can wear.
"Seems like you’re quite satisfied with what I’ve prepared for you?"
A familiar voice sounded from behind her, and Li Luru initially thought she had misheard.
"..."
Seeing her eyes widen in shock, Ye Haoxuan snorted, "What kind of expression is that? Not happy to see me?"
"Happy? It’s more like shocked," Li Luru complained inwardly.
Ye Haoxuan pinched her cheek, "Tsk, tsk, seeing your expression, I know you’re saying bad things about me in your heart."
The sudden intimacy inexplicably made her nose feel sour.
"Sob sob..."
Ye Haoxuan looked at the girl suddenly crying while holding him and was momentarily at a loss for what to do.
Finally, he placed his hands awkwardly around her waist, "Hey, little brat, what’s the matter with you? Crying upon seeing me? Did your second sister bully you again? I’ll deal with her for you."
"Sob sob..."
Seeing her crying incessantly, Ye Haoxuan sighed, women really must be made of water.
"Little brat, is it that you don’t want to see me? Shouldn’t you be happy to see me? If you keep crying, I’ll leave! Still crying? Do you mean I’m late and should’ve married you sooner?"
He’s truly not very good at comforting women.
Li Luru couldn’t help but laugh through her tears upon hearing this and pinched him hard.
"Ouch..."
Ye Haoxuan rubbed his arm, "Look at you, crying so ugly." Saying this, he took out his handkerchief to wipe her tears.
He then thought again, not hearing the little brat’s voice seemed a bit off, missing her feisty looks.
"How did you get in here?"
Ye Haoxuan glanced over, nodding, "Nice, your handwriting has improved a bit, prettier than you."
As expected, he earned a big eye roll from Li Luru.
"Haha, that’s more lively." He patted her head, "You think it’s difficult to get into this courtyard? Missed me, little brat?"
Li Luru remained silent, only smiling at him.
Ye Haoxuan felt dissatisfied, "Tell me, did you miss me or not? Did you?"
"..."
The more she smiled, the more dissatisfied Ye Haoxuan became.
Li Luru pointed to her throat then shrugged, she wanted to speak but couldn’t.
"Ha... you really know how to evade." Ye Haoxuan said, "Nodding means yes, shaking your head also means yes, which do you choose?"
Li Luru scribbled, "I choose to freeze my neck."
Ye Haoxuan glared at her, then pressed her head down with one hand, delighting, "Little fool, that’s also considered nodding."
Inside, Li Luru felt...
"Haha, alright, I’m leaving now. Isn’t your third brother getting married in a few days? I’ll take you to meet someone then."
After speaking, he flipped out the window before she could ask who.
"Young miss, that wandering doctor has arrived."
