Falling in love while doing tasks [Quick Wear]

The moon hid the remaining half of its face in the inky clouds. The sky and the earth suddenly became dim, as if being swallowed by the abyss.

Song Xu's mood at this moment was as if he had sunk into the abyss, bitter and desperate.
She stood at the door with her body stiff as if frozen, her head lowered, silent and stubborn.
.
"Axu."
In the room, Yue Shengyi sat at the table, looking at the door from time to time. When he saw Song Xu finally appear, his eyes lit up.
It’s a pity that Song Xu kept his head down and didn’t notice it.

"Ah Xu?"
Seeing Song Xu standing at the door motionless, Yue Shengyi stood up and called her again.
"Why don't you come in?"

Song Xu had been listening carefully to Yue Shengyi's words, and never noticed any indifference or disgust in her words. She gently pinched her sleeves with her fingers. She slowly raised her head and carefully met Yue Shengyi's gaze.
The smiling eyes were as gentle as usual, even with a hint of doting.

Song Xu was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but walk quickly towards Yue Shengyi.
"elder sister."

Her burning gaze made Yue Shengyi's face slightly hot, and he turned his head away unconsciously to avoid her gaze.
"you"
"I"
They both spoke at the same time and paused at the same time.

Song Xu just stared blankly, which made Yue Shengyi burst out laughing.

She looked as if she didn't care about what happened during the day, but it also seemed as if she had never experienced what happened during the day.

This made Song Xu relax a little, but she was also a little depressed. As expected, no matter which world she was in, she was always so cowardly and incompetent in front of Shengsheng.

She lowered her head again and didn't raise it for a long time.

Seeing that she was obviously depressed, Yue Shengyi's smile gradually disappeared. He frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, then raised his hand and pulled her sleeve.
"Ah Xu, what's wrong? Did His Majesty blame you?"

The hand that came into view was slender and white. Song Xu's gaze stayed on the hand for a while, then slowly moved up to the owner of the hand.
"No, sister, are you worried about me?"

".Well, why else would you come back so late?"
There was no blame or complaint. Yue Shengyi just asked a question casually, but Song Xu hurriedly explained it until sweat broke out on his forehead.

"I, I went to the palace, and then I reported some things to my mother, and then I came back."

Thinking that she had wasted the whole afternoon wandering around the capital, Song Xu blushed with a rare guilty conscience. After pinching her fingers, she finally reached out and held Yue Shengyi's hand tentatively.

Yue Shengyi pursed his lips and did not pull back like he did before. Instead, he gently held Song Xu with a smile in his eyes.

Song Xu's breathing stopped for a moment. She first stared blankly at the two people's clasped hands, then raised her head and looked at Yue Shengyi stupidly.
"Sister.?"

"Did Ah Xu secretly kiss me during the day while I was sleeping?"

Hearing Yue Shengyi's question, Song Xu's body tensed up instantly. She blinked slowly and finally nodded.
"Yes."

Yue Shengyi's face slowly turned red. When she was in the army, she heard others say that if two people had close contact, they would have to get married.
Now that Ah Xu kissed her, they were considered intimate, right? Then they had to get married.
"Then Ah Xu has to be responsible for me. Let's get married."

"Get married?!"
Song Xu was stunned for a moment, then his pupils constricted and he almost lost his voice.
Yue Shengyi nodded and tugged at his clothes a little embarrassedly.

The military has always been straightforward and bold, no matter what they do, they are quick and decisive. Even though she has only been with the prince in the army for half a year, she feels that those people in the army are right, and that one should express his feelings to his beloved as soon as possible. Otherwise, if he drags it out until the end, she will regret it.

She felt the girl's soft kiss when she opened her eyes in a daze during the day, and then after she woke up, she sat in the room with her face red for the whole afternoon.

Thinking carefully, she was attracted to the Fifth Prince unconsciously from the moment she saw her for the first time. Later, "Fifth Prince" became "A Xu", and she shamelessly responded to the name "Sister".
Some things can no longer be explained simply by "guilt".

So she decided to speak out and show her feelings to Ah Xu openly. As for what will happen next, that will be up to Ah Xu.
"Ah Xu, I like you."

My heart pleases you.
These four simple words hit Song Xu's heart hard, catching her off guard and causing her to feel like crying.

Song Xu held Yue Shengyi's hands tightly with both of hers, starry eyes staring at her without blinking, lips trembling slightly, after a moment she uttered: "I like you too." Yue Shengyi smiled gently, his eyes curved, his slightly curved eyebrows were soft like water, and his half-closed eyes were filled with joy like light.
There is always such a person. When she smiles, it is like the warm breeze of early spring bringing new life, and like the morning light at dawn shining on all things.

Yue Shengyi's smile brought salvation to Song Xu. All her palpitations and panic disappeared, leaving only warmth and love in her heart.

"Shengsheng, sister, I love you."
Song Xu confessed his feelings again and grinned foolishly.
The "I love you" that has been hidden in my heart for many years can finally be said, and the secret and devout love can finally be expressed.

Yue Shengyi, who blushed at the straightforward confession, looked at the silly expression on her face and smiled with his lips curved.
The two lovers who had just expressed their feelings to each other held each other's hands tightly and looked at each other with silly smiles on their faces.

If Wu Mu, who had finally recovered from the shock, hadn't suddenly twitched his brain and slammed the door, the "clang" sound startled the two people in the room. The two lovers would have been grinning at each other until dawn.

Song Xu couldn't stop laughing at Yue Shengyi, and didn't want to pay attention to Wu Mu outside the door. Unexpectedly, this idiot just stuck his head in, and lowered his voice to teach him a lesson, and his sharp voice became slightly normal.
"Your Highness, Miss Yue, dinner has been served."

Yue Shengyi loosened his grip when he saw Wu Mu, but Song Xu held it tightly.
"Shengsheng, let's go have dinner. I haven't eaten since I came out of the palace."

The wet starry eyes were filled with pitiful tears, which made Yue Shengyi feel soft and sad. His attention immediately shifted to Song Xu's hungry stomach, and he didn't remember that he had been hungry all afternoon as well.
"Then let's go and have dinner quickly."

"Uh-huh."
Song Xu, who successfully pretended to be pitiful, smiled secretly in her heart, then held Yue Shengyi's hand tightly and walked all the way to the dining room.

Wu Mu followed the two of them obediently, not daring to look around, just staring at the ground. Even if there were storms in his heart, his face was serious and he didn't show any abnormality.

Today she finally realized that Miss Yue was the treasure in His Highness' heart and an ancestor-level figure in the entire Princess's Mansion. From now on, everyone in the mansion must treat her with care and make sure no mistakes are made.

And looking at the attitude of His Highness now, even Her Majesty the Queen will be helpless in the end. Although women can marry in Fengwu, the issue of offspring is a big problem. What's more, His Highness is the Crown Princess, the current Crown Prince, and the future Queen. But think about His Highness's temperament.
Forget it, Wu Mu didn't want to endure His Highness's cold eyes like heavy snow in winter. Whoever can do it, go ahead. Apart from taking care of the servants in the mansion, she just had to keep her mouth shut. Otherwise, what was waiting for her in the end was His Highness's long sword.

Wu Mu sighed silently in her heart, her face full of sorrow. She hasn't even married her sweetheart yet.
******
Before the first ray of dawn light broke through the clouds, Song Xu had already ridden his horse to the gate of the palace in high spirits.

The young guard who came trotting over to lead the horse looked at Song Xu with a faint smile on his lips. He couldn't hide the horror on his face, and his eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

He Yun, who had been watching from the side, was so worried for the young guard that he quickly stepped forward and apologized.
"Please forgive me, Your Highness. I failed to discipline my child properly. This little one was ignorant of etiquette and offended Your Highness. I will definitely teach him a lesson."
"Forget it. I have no intention of blaming you. Commander He is good at managing his subordinates. The Queen Mother and I are relieved."

The smile on Song Xu's lips remained unchanged. She glanced around and saw the nervousness and uneasiness in He Yun's eyes. She then raised her hand and let the young guard lead the horse away.
Sure enough, as soon as the young guard left, He Yun breathed a sigh of relief.

Song Xu saw it all, and gently pinched the embroidery on the cuffs with his fingers, and asked:
"If I remember correctly, Commander He should be one year older than my sister. I wonder if Commander He has married yet?"

"what?"
He Yun was surprised, and then his heart tightened, but he looked into Song Xu's eyes without any expression.
Apart from the coldness on the surface, the depth of those eyes was unfathomable.

He Yun slowed down his breathing and said softly:
"Your Highness, I have not married yet, and I don't plan to marry. I like women."

"Yes, Not Bad."
Song Xu nodded, patted He Yun on the shoulder, smiled at her politely, and then strode into the palace.

He Yun was stunned when he received an inexplicable smile from Song Xu, and then stood there in confusion.
What does Your Highness mean? Not bad? What is not bad?
It was not until the young guard who had just left with the horse came back that He Yun looked at her and suddenly understood.

What Her Royal Highness meant was that she admitted that she likes women, so... not bad?
