She was so flustered that she forgot to put the window latch back in place.
This made things easier for Chu Yao. He pushed open the window and nimbly leaped into the room, using the window frame as leverage.
Wushuang happened to run to the Eight Immortals Table. Hearing the noise, she turned around and saw Chu Yao sitting down in the rose chair with an air of nonchalance.
"Weren't you here on official business? What are you doing in my room?" she asked, puzzled.
Chu Yao chuckled softly, looking down: "I'm exhausted after a long day of work, so I came here to rest for a while."
Hearing him say that, Wushuang climbed onto the drum stool without hesitation, stretched out her arm to reach the teapot in the tea tray, and poured out a cup of tea in the dark.
But when I turned around, I realized that if I jumped down while holding the teacup, the whole cup of tea would spill.
Wushuang was sulking. Being a little girl wasn't easy, even pouring tea was a challenge. She had no choice but to place the teacup near the edge of the table, jump down, turn around, raise her hands above her head, tiptoe, and reach out with her little hands to find the teacup.
"Chu Yao, have some tea." She held the teacup and ran back with her short legs.
The tea had actually gone cold long ago, but Chu Yao found it exceptionally delicious.
At such a young age, she already knows how to be considerate and caring towards others.
He reached out and rubbed Wushuang's head.
Wu Shuang tilted her head back, like a spoiled kitten, and climbed onto Chu Yao's lap with a smile and squinted eyes.
But he didn't hold her properly like he usually did.
Can someone so young really understand how to be considerate and take care of others?
Filled with doubt all day, Chu Yao's face hardened as he picked up Wu Shuang and placed her on the ground, standing still. (WWW.qiushu.CC Good Novels)
Wushuang pouted in dissatisfaction.
What are you doing?
Why not let her sit on his lap?
He drank her tea, but then threw her on the ground, showing no sense of reciprocity whatsoever!
Wushuang was unhappy. She snorted, turned her little body, and was about to run back to bed.
Before she could even take a step, Chu Yao hooked the strap of her bodice at the back and pulled her back.
"Let go! You jerk!" Wushuang was small and weak, and her struggles were futile, so she could only boast, "You just know how to bully girls because they're weak!"
The way she pouted and acted spoiled was clearly just like a child. Apart from being more outgoing and having more intense behavior, she was no different from her younger sister, Chu Wan.
Chu Yao's already uncertain doubts began to waver.
However, whether it is true or not, we should still find out clearly. Besides, since we've come all this way, we shouldn't waste the opportunity.
Having made his decision, Chu Yao pressed down on Wu Shuang's shoulders, holding her a step away from him, and said with a stern face, "Let's have a chat."
What could an old man of his age possibly have to talk about with a young girl as beautiful as a flower?
Besides, he had a fierce, stern face!
Wushuang kept complaining to himself.
Ever since she came back, she's been pampered wherever she goes, and her temper has grown increasingly worse. She couldn't help but say, "They don't want to talk to you at all!"
Chu Yao suppressed a laugh and continued, "Shuangshuang, do you want to know what I've been doing all day?"
Wushuang's large eyes darted around twice, and she shook her head with utmost honesty, saying, "I don't want to."
What use would it be for a little girl like her to know this?
Expecting her to understand and confide in her is just plain stupid.
So, Chu Yao's brain is broken?
Wushuang was terrified by this idea. She opened her mouth and tilted her head back to examine him carefully, but Chu Yao was sitting there perfectly fine, without any obvious external injuries. She then sniffed with her little nose, but couldn't smell any alcohol.
If you didn't hurt your head or get drunk, why did you do something foolish?
Chu Yao pretended not to hear Wu Shuang's blunt refusal, and didn't care what she was peeking at. He continued to say what he wanted to say: "This year's provincial examination was set by His Majesty himself, so although it is only a small test, it is of great importance. Because we knew in advance that someone was planning to cheat, I took the Lingguang Guard to investigate thoroughly and arrested all the officials who violated the rules."
Wu Shuang's mouth gaped even wider. If she had known that Chu Yao would personally intervene, she wouldn't have kept harping on Lin Ruqing. In any case, he would eventually be exposed, so she didn't have to personally deal with his quirks.
However, the information obtained from Qi Lan was very important, so there was nothing to regret.
Wushuang lowered her head and saw the small undergarment she was wearing. Although Chu Yao had washed her several times, she was still a little shy facing him wearing only the undergarment.
She twisted her fingers and her little feet moved back and forth on the carpet shyly, wanting to put on more clothes, but Chu Yao held her down. Was her undergarment really that pretty?
This scene, however, became proof of Wushuang's guilty conscience in Chu Yao's eyes.
He said casually, "I just happened to see you outside the examination hall."
"Let's go see my third cousin off to the exam!" Wushuang said, "to cheer him on!"
"You actually manage to get up?" Chu Yao laughed. "Don't you usually sleep until noon every day?"
Is she really that lazy?
Everyone knows she sleeps until noon every day.
Wu Shuang pouted. She's a child now, and the more she sleeps, the faster she grows, right?
