"What are you looking at? You're the same."

Huiqing didn't answer her. Instead, she turned her head to look ahead and turned at a bend in the road. Meanwhile, the red-haired maid who had been staring at her without looking where she was going crashed into the wall.

--------

The suburbs weren't far from the capital city center; the two little ones hadn't even fallen asleep yet when the car arrived.

"Look, we're princesses, so let's waive the fare this time." Mir shamelessly haggled with the driver again. No, the little guy hadn't even considered paying.

The driver looked at the two with a troubled expression. Of course he knew that Luo Li was the princess of the kingdom, and the white-haired girl should be the rumored empress's biological daughter if he wasn't mistaken. But if he didn't charge them because of their identities, he would lose a lot of money on gas.

In their line of work, they rarely encounter anyone shamelessly demanding a free meal based on their status. After all, people of high status usually care about their image. A senior colleague once waived the bill for a wealthy nobleman, and later, it's said, he encountered a sanitation worker who also demanded a free meal. The sanitation worker said this:

"Look, I'm the one who sweeps the streets you drive on every day, so it's not too much to ask that you give me a free ride, is it?"

His predecessor refused this time and was subsequently subjected to a severe complaint.

"Children pay half price..." The driver implied that since they were children, they were already paying half price, and should stop shamelessly trying to evade the fare.

"Since it's already half price, it wouldn't be unreasonable to charge nothing, would it?" Mil tried again to persuade the driver.

“Mir…” Luo Li grabbed her sister’s clothes to stop her, took out money from her wallet and handed it to the driver, “I’ll pay.”

Since someone had paid, it had nothing to do with Mir anymore, so Mir shut her mouth and behaved herself, but her eyes were fixed on Luo Li's wallet.

The driver took the money and drove off immediately. Luo Li turned around and noticed Mir staring at her wallet. However, she didn't think of Mir as being greedy. After all, how could Mir, who was also a princess, like her, like such a superficial thing as money? So she assumed that Mir was unhappy that she had given him the money.

"If Mom finds out that we rode in someone's car and didn't pay because we acted like princesses, she'll definitely scold us," Luo Li explained to her younger sister.

“It’s alright,” Mil waved his hand. “As long as they don’t know, nothing will happen. Just like the fish we grilled before, nothing happened to it, right?” Mil completely forgot that Luo Li had mentioned that she had been reprimanded.

When Mir mentioned the grilled fish, Luo Li's eyes started twitching uncontrollably. The fish Mir grilled had gotten her a severe scolding from her mother, even though she had enjoyed it quite a bit at the time...

"That's because I took a scolding for you, you silly Mir." Luo Li pouted and waved her little fist at Mir, complaining.

"Oh." Mil seemed quite pleased to hear this. "So that means I don't have to worry about my aunt finding out that I cooked that fish anymore?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Li was so angry she almost vomited blood. She would rather be beaten up alone than betray Mir. Yet this heartless little ingrate was actually happy that she wouldn't have to worry about being criticized after learning about it.

Luo Li immediately decided to ignore her for two minutes.

"By the way, what's fun to do in the suburbs?" Mil thought of this question only after they had arrived in the suburbs.

Luo Li, who had just decided to ignore her sister for two minutes, immediately went against her decision and grabbed Mir's hand, saying:

"This place is different from the city. Look, there aren't as many houses here. There are flowers and grass everywhere, and sometimes you can even see some domestic or wild animals. Isn't it much more interesting than the city?"

Is it interesting?

Mil frowned. At least she didn't find it interesting. She often completed tasks in these kinds of environments when she was studying at the academy. However, she thought... well, it was quite interesting, but these things had almost become a habit.

"So what should we play?" This was Mil's primary concern right now; she was a restless child.

"Hmm... I don't know." Luo Li tilted her head.

"Don't know?" Mir puffed out her cheeks, a little annoyed. "Then why are we here?"

"The environment here is much better than in the city!" Luo Li stretched out her arms, closed her eyes, faced the sky, and took a deep breath. "At least the air is fresher."

Mir didn't answer her, but instead glanced silently at the piles of cow dung not far from them.

And is the cow dung fresh?

Chapter 117 Rabbits are so cute, why eat them?

"Since there's nothing fun to do, let's go back." After saying this, Mir glanced back at where they had come from. There didn't seem to be any cars passing by. How were they going to get back?

"Wait a minute!" Hearing her younger sister want to go back, Luo Li became a little anxious. "How about... we go catch some rabbits? I remember there are a lot of rabbits around here."

The red-haired maid, hiding in the shadows, almost stumbled and tripped, exposing herself. Her little princess was actually trying to catch rabbits like the wild children in the village? If she got all dirty, not only would the princess be scolded by Kara, but she herself would also be punished.

“Good idea.” Mir agreed to her sister’s suggestion almost without thinking. It was also thanks to Luo Li’s reminder that she remembered what other interesting places there were in the wild—wild animals taste especially delicious.

Upon hearing that the two had reached an agreement, the red-haired maid almost jumped out to stop them, but Huiqing appeared in time and caught her.

"Her Majesty the Queen's only orders to me are to protect their safety. If I were to step out and disturb the princesses' enjoyment, I might not get my salary next month."

"...What does that have to do with me? I was sent by Princess Kara to protect Princess Luo Li and to make sure the two princesses don't get too wild. If the two princesses get all dirty, I won't get paid!" The red-haired maid shook off Hui Qing's hand that was holding her.

"There's really nothing we can do about that..." Huiqing seemed a little troubled.

The red-haired maid ignored her completely. To her, Huiqing's deducted wages were none of her business; she only cared about protecting her own. But clearly, she wasn't the only one thinking this way...

The red-haired maid suddenly felt a pain in the back of her head, then everything went black, and she knew nothing more.

Huiqing silently withdrew the hammer, which was bigger than her head, from her hand; a faint magical power still lingered on it.

"I'm sorry, I will take good care of Princess Luo Li for you. I have to sacrifice you for my salary next month. This should be enough to keep you unconscious for a day..." After saying that, Hui Qing dug a big pit and buried her in it to prevent her from being discovered by others. Anyway, they wouldn't be in any danger from being buried alive for a day. It would just be a little uncomfortable to have bugs crawling on them underground.

After finishing these tasks, Huiqing realized that the princesses had already run far away, so she quickly chased after them.

"Ah! I saw one, um... it ran away."

As soon as Luo Li finished speaking, Mir transformed into a blur and chased after her, catching the rabbit in the blink of an eye.

"Mir is amazing!" Luo Li clapped at Mir with starry eyes.

She trotted over to Mil's side and stared at the gray rabbit that Mil was holding by the ears.

"It's so cute, let's take it home and raise it."

"Raise it?" Mil frowned, patted the rabbit's belly, causing the rabbit to kick and struggle. "Such a plump little rabbit, it's perfect for roasting and eating."

"Bunny is so cute, why would you eat a bunny?" Luo Li looked at Mir in disbelief.

"So, are you going to eat it or not?" Mil seemed a little impatient.

"Eat it, add more cumin." Luo Li decisively betrayed her previous self.

Hearing the conversation between the two little girls, the rabbit struggled even more fiercely, and Mil angrily plucked two tufts of fur from the rabbit.

"Behave yourself!"

The rabbit didn't behave; instead, it started vibrating even more intensely.

"Is there anything we can use to put it in?" Mill asked his sister.

"I didn't bring such a thing with me."

Mill grabbed the rabbit's ears tightly and ran to the nearby stream, lost in thought.

"Hey! You're not thinking of drowning the bunny, are you?" Luo Li asked incredulously again. "That might affect the taste!"

“No, why would you think such an absurd thing?” Mir was a little dissatisfied with Luo Li’s words and looked at her seriously, saying, “I was thinking, what if a cage just happens to float down the river and come right in front of us in a little while?”

"This is even more absurd, isn't it!"

Just as Luo Li finished shouting, she saw a cage floating across the river, defying the laws of physics.

"A cage actually floated over!" The first to be surprised was Mil, the one who came up with this absurd idea.

"So what are you surprised about if I'm not even surprised?" Luo Li complained weakly.

Hiding in the shadows, Huiqing silently dispelled the magic she had attached to the cage.

"Your Highness, this is all I can do to help you."

Luo Li opened the cage, and Mir forced the rabbit inside.

"Then let's roast it!" Luo Li, who had just suggested ***, was in high spirits.

“But we don’t have any materials,” Mir said, looking somewhat troubled.

"There's no need to worry about that!" Luo Li pointed to a large villa in the distance and said, "Do you see that big house?"

"Hmm." There aren't many houses within a few miles, but this one is the biggest and most luxurious, so it's hard not to notice it.

"That's the ambassador's reception area, used specifically to entertain visiting ambassadors from other countries," Luo Li earnestly explained to her sister. "Can't we just ask the chef there for some?"

"Since we already have a chef, why don't we just have him cook for us?" Mir was worried about her silly older sister's intelligence.

"Oh yeah 0v0"

"Let's go quickly!" With that, Luo Li carried the rabbit in one hand and held her younger sister's hand in the other, running towards the ambassador's reception hall.

The ambassador's reception hall looked very large, but the outside environment didn't look very nice. There were cattle and sheep wandering around everywhere, and the security guards didn't seem to care. But once inside, it was a different story. After all, it was a place to entertain ambassadors, so it couldn't be shabby. The outside environment could be understood as being close to nature, but if the inside was also so messy, that would be unacceptable. Where would that leave the reputation of the Rainbow Wing Kingdom?

The two young girls ran hand in hand through this solemn place. The guards who passed by did not stop them. After all, how many people in the capital did not know Princess Luo Li? Even if someone did not know her and wanted to stop them, they would be held back by their companions. They did not want to lose their jobs.

Soon, Luo Li led Mir to the kitchen.

They opened the kitchen door and immediately saw the chef slaughtering a pig while sporting a bizarre, almost otherworldly smile.

"...Ah!!!" Luo Li couldn't help but scream when she saw this scene.

Mil remained completely unmoved, even observing the freshness of the pig's meat.

Chapter 118 You're finished, Mir is very petty.

"You're here to roast rabbits, huh..." The chef scratched his head, looking at the cage Luo Li was carrying.

"That's right, uncle, why do you have such a scary smile when you're killing a pig?" Luo Li said, shivering as she spoke.

Why would a chef personally slaughter a pig? Wouldn't it be better to leave that to a butcher? Luo Li was a little confused.

"Ah, this?" The chef flashed that creepy smile again. "My wife gave birth."

Was it just my imagination? This sentence seemed vaguely familiar. Mir looked at the chef with a puzzled expression.

"Then why are you laughing so scary? Isn't this a happy thing?" Luo Li asked again.

"Because the child isn't mine!" He shouted these words, and the chef could no longer laugh. His expression was as ferocious as could be, which startled Luo Li.

At this moment, the chef looked like a deranged serial killer, with a ferocious expression, holding a bloodstained cleaver, and his chef's uniform stained with red blood. He was incredibly intimidating to a little girl like Luo Li.

But Mil was different. She walked up to the chef with sympathy and patted his unblemished arm. Her height was a disadvantage; she couldn't reach his shoulder.

"It's okay. You should forgive them in times like these. To show your forgiveness, stuff the spiciest chili pepper in your kitchen into the anus of that scoundrel."

"Oh! That makes sense!" The chef's eyes lit up, and he chopped the cleaver onto the cutting board.

“That’s not enough, why don’t we…” Before Mir could finish speaking, Luo Li ran over and covered Mir’s mouth. She felt that if she let her sister continue, a murderer might appear.

"Uncle Chef, could you give us some tools and ingredients for roasting rabbits?" Luo Li dared not let the chef stay with her sister any longer; it was too dangerous. They should roast the rabbits themselves.
