Unaware that My Legitimate Sister is My Husband - Chapter 30
Chapter 30
(11.2)
Li Yu had no choice and could only take on the role of a eunuch summoning a woman of the palace on behalf of the emperor. When he got off the pavilion, he saluted Xi Xian and said with a gentle smile: “Miss…. Your sister is calling for you.”
He guessed that this girl was probably a daughter of the Xi family.
Xi Xian was stunned in place, her face turned red, and her eyelashes fluttered as she looked at Li Yu, unexpectedly not knowing what to answer for a while.
This “your sister” seemed to pierce the tip of her heart, and made her frown, like it was some kind of intimate title, indicating that the relationship between Li Yu and Xi Heng was not ordinary.
But thinking carefully about it, there was also nothing wrong with it.
As Xi Xian was gracefully frowning, Li Yu was at a lost, and said: “Miss?”
Xi Xian lowered her eyes and gently said, “May I ask, sir you are…?”
Li Yu said: “My surname is Li, I am a friend of your brother, and I have been living in your residence for a few months now.”
He didn’t introduce himself too much, because the girl in front of him looked a little shy, so it was not very convenient.
Xi Xian nodded, her eyes were full of water as she looked at him, and her voice was weak when she said: “Hmm.”
Li Yu was much taller than her, he had a fresh scent of black locust on his body, the blue clothes he was wearing were turning white from being overused and overwashed, but it made people feel he was simple and reliable.
Xi Xian felt warm and at peace.
Maybe it was just her baseless prejudgment, but Xi Xian was a plant that lacked a reliable tree, and as long as there was a shadow to give her shade, she would be full of gratitude, tolerate everything about him, and regard what other people would consider as shortcomings as good points.
She also clearly knew that this was not how a relationship between a man and a woman should be.
But sometimes it was difficult to have both love and peace of mind, she had enjoyed love, but she was only finding out now that what she lacked wasn’t an obsessive deep love.
But Li Yu was different, he was an upright and good man, from an ordinary and low family background, but he had strength of character, and if she could marry him, Xi Xian could forget that other person forever.
She was not some kind of good woman with tender feelings, and the multiple layers of calculations in her eyes were heavier than anyone else.
Xi Xian lowered her thick eyelashes, some strands of hair fell on the side of her ears, as she said softly: “You are my brother’s friend, then you can also be considered like my half-brother.”
Looking at the chessboard in the pavilion with some eagerness, she said timidly: “So, can you teach me to play chess?”
Li Yu was stunned, and his steps stopped. When he looked down, he saw Xi Xian’s clear black eyes, as well as the innocent pleading in her eyes.
She was too small, young and weak, but she was a very beautiful little lady, who looked like she didn’t understand anything, making people not bear to disappoint her.
Li Yu hesitated for a moment before he cupped his hand: “It’s not impossible, it’s just that there are restrictions between men and women after all, if miss wants to learn, you can invite someone else.”
Xi Xian sighed lowly: “Thank you, brother Li, for your instruction.”
But her eyes looked in the direction of her legitimate sister in the pavilion, before lowering down, and the side of her face looked a little desolate.
Li Yu knew that she had misunderstood.
But he couldn’t tell her ah!
Miss, listen to me! This is a terrifying man sitting in the pavilion, and I really don’t have any relationship with him!
Li Yu just smiled bitterly and took Xi Xian to the pavilion.
Xi Xian saluted her legitimate sister, but she refused to speak, she just pouted her mouth and sat on the side, taking honeyed red date cake from the plate and eating it.
She cared about her manners, but the pastries were too delicious.
The unique aroma of the red dates mixed with milk, with the sticky and sweet taste of honey drizzles. Inside the mouth, with just a light pressure, it turned soft and reduced size, while the sweetness turned even more intense, almost filling the entire mouth.
Xi Xian was eating pastries, with her red eyes lowered, and bulging cheeks.
He was deceiving this little sister, yet the crown prince did not feel the slightest guilt about it, he was just ignoring her on the side, allowing her to take the plate and eat the pastries.
There were crumbles around Xi Xian’s lips, as she just sat there in a daze, with a slight resentment in her eyes. She herself didn’t know who she was resenting.
Her legitimate sister and Li Yu were playing chess face to face, with each move revealing exquisite chess skills, the game became very busy, the opposing soldiers were trying to block the opposite side, but there was no place at all. It could be seen that the high mountain had found a bosom friend, while she was sitting on the side and eating snacks. Thinking about it, she felt ashamed.
Xi Xian understood a little about chess strategy, in fact she understood a little about everything.
She knew how to play the guqin, chess, and knew calligraphy and painting, and even dancing. But she had learned dancing for that scum man, and she could only dance in front of him the bedroom.
She didn’t dance very well, but her body was soft and beautiful, and she was very graceful when she was wearing thin and transparent clothes.
Xi Xian thought about it and felt that she had really been useless in her past life.
