When Su Qian caught sight of the young girl, her gaze couldn’t help but flicker, trying to avoid looking too surprised.
It wasn’t for any other reason, but because the appearance of the maid in front of her seemed incredibly young. With big, bright eyes and a rosy little mouth, she looked adorable no matter how she looked at her. Her height seemed to be about the size of an eleven or twelve years old child. Her exquisite and small appearance really looked like an exquisite gla.s.s doll.
Su Qian glanced thoughtfully at the young girl. She did not expect the maid to be so young.
Seeing Su Qian staring at her, Lu Ying couldn’t help but feel a little nervous. “Miss Su, do you have any orders?”
Realizing that it was impolite to stare at others for too long, Su Qian quickly retracted her gaze and regained a serene expression as she said with a smile, “Please prepare a bath for me. I want to take a bath and change my clothes.” She had rushed to the demonic beast forest early in the morning. On the way back and forth, she had not been idle. At this moment, she could not help but feel a little tired. She just wanted to take a bath and relax.
When Lu Ying heard this, the smile on her face instantly deepened. She continued to chuckle and said, “In that case, Miss Su can enjoy a hot spring in our Imperial Residence.”
“Hot spring?” Su Qian remembered that Xiao Yan’s residence did have a hot spring. Moreover, she had gone into the water before. The hot spring was indeed extraordinary and very refreshing.
Seeing Lu Ying nod, Su Qian was indeed a little tempted. “Doesn’t His Highness need it at this hour?”
“His Highness is currently busy in the study, so it’s unlikely for him to be there,” Lu Ying replied obediently.
Su Qian was relieved to hear that. “Alright, help me pack up. 1’11 be there in a while.”
“Yes.” After Lu Ying finished speaking, she obediently retreated.
Soon, Lu Ying brought over some flower petals and fragrant incense that were needed to soak in the hot spring.
At the same time, Lu Ying also sent over a thin dress.
The dress was snow-white and as light as a puff of smoke. Even if Su Qian didn’t wear it, it wasn’t difficult to imagine how obvious the curves of a woman’s figure were.
“The hot spring is an open-air place, but it’s not suitable to wear undergarments. So, Miss Su, please change into the gauze dress when you reach the hot spring. I will wait for you outside the hot spring pool,” Lu Ying said gently.
“Understood.” Su Qian was filled with antic.i.p.ation. After she finished speaking, she left Xiao Yin and Black Ball behind and strode toward the hot spring with Lu Ying.
A moment later, the two of them arrived at the courtyard where the hot spring was located.
“Then wait here. I’ll go in myself. If there’s anything, I’ll call for you.” After saying that, Su Qian pushed open the courtyard door and left Lu Ying outside as she entered alone.
Lu Ying waited obediently outside the door, but she suddenly felt the aura of another person beside her.
Her originally gentle expression was immediately filled with hostility. Lu Ying narrowed her eyes and raised her hand to slap the person in the darkness.
Who knew that Lu Ying’s attack was actually firmly received by that person.
Lu Ying’s eyes widened in surprise. Then, she heard a low male voice beside her ear. “Shh, don’t make a fuss. It’s me.”
Upon hearing the man’s familiar voice, Lu Ying immediately retracted her murderous aura and asked in bewilderment, “Why is it you?”
