Chapter 89

Xiao Xixi was afraid of being seen through, so she quickly changed the subject.

"What kind of juice did you make?"

Baoqin subconsciously replied, "It's pear juice."

Xiao Xixi took the cup, drank it all in one go, and smacked her lips in praise, "So sweet!"

She handed the empty cup back, indicating she wanted another.

Baoqin, holding the empty cup, left the room in a daze.

She was still wondering how the young mistress managed to eat so much food in such a short time.

The next day, Luo Qinghan came to the Qingge Palace and asked her to pack her luggage and go with him.

Xiao Xixi first took out a small blue floral bag.

Luo Qinghan didn't react.

Xiao Xixi then took out a heavy, oversized bag.

Luo Qinghan frowned, "What's in this?"

Xiao Xixi hugged the bag tightly, "These are all the snacks Baoqin made for me."

"I won't let you go hungry. Why do you need to bring so much food? Put it down, you're not allowed to bring it."

Xiao Xixi pouted, feeling so wronged that she wanted to cry.

"If I don't have these snacks, I'll be so miserable. Please, Your Highness, let me bring them."

Luo Qinghan remained unmoved.

Xiao Xixi put down the bag, moved closer, and tugged at his sleeve, shaking it.

"Please~"

"… No cajoling."

Xiao Xixi pulled on Luo Qinghan's sleeve, begging pitifully.

Luo Qinghan mercilessly shook her off.

She simply hugged his arm and continued to beg.

This time, Luo Qinghan couldn't shake her off.

Looking at the tearful, pitiful woman in front of him, the scolding words on the tip of his tongue turned into something else: "Just this once, no more."

Xiao Xixi immediately turned her tears into a smile and pounced, hugging him tightly.

"Thank you, Your Highness! You're such a good person, I love you so much!"

Luo Qinghan stood there, stiff and unmoving.

Xiao Xixi let go of him, first slung the small bag over her shoulder, then hugged the large bag to her chest, and said excitedly, "I'm ready, we can leave anytime!"

Luo Qinghan tried to ignore the subtle feeling from being hugged and said coolly,

"Put these things down. Someone will help you send them out. You just need to follow me."

Xiao Xixi reluctantly put down the bag.

She bent down and kissed the large bag, saying affectionately, "Good little baby, stay here and don't move. We'll see each other soon."

Luo Qinghan took Xiao Xiangdi out of the Qingge Palace under the pretext of her visiting her family.

The carriage was already prepared.

The two of them got into the carriage.

Xiao Xixi saw three bags placed in the corner and exclaimed,

"Why is there an extra bag?"

Luo Qinghan pointed to the small black bag, "There are two sets of clothes inside, specially prepared for you. You'll change into them on the carriage tomorrow morning."

Xiao Xixi opened the black bag and found two sets of eunuch clothes inside.

She blinked, "Your Highness wants me to dress as a eunuch?"

Luo Qinghan: "Your identity isn't suitable for traveling south with me. You need to be in disguise."

"I can dress as a guard. Why must I dress as a eunuch?"

"Because you're short."

Xiao Xixi felt a stab in her heart.

Her height wasn't particularly short among women, but it was definitely not enough among men, especially the guards who were all tall and strong. Even if she wore guard's clothes, it would be obvious that she was different from the other guards.

Xiao Xixi consoled herself silently.

Well, if it has to be a eunuch, so be it. It's like playing a cosplay.
