Chapter 5 – Taking Advantage of

Yan Xuan, aside from going to the Yu You Hall to work, was also learning to dance, this was her father’s particular request. Girl, please at least learn something that makes you even a little like a girl, was it that she didn’t seem like a girl?

Thankfully, her dance teacher, Yue Xiuhua, always boasted how flexible she was, and she easily learned how to dance, making her father burst with joy and pride, sending her to teacher Yue more often. Also, she herself liked to dance quite a lot, even when she fell she was happy.

If one was to ask what the main event of the year was, then the answer would most certainly be the Chongyang Festival. And the most exciting part of the Chongyang Festival would be the Chongyang Festival contests. Accidentally, she got placed on the list, and also got in first place, gaining fame in the capital, helping her dad win some prizes.

With a big reputation, she got to see more and more important people.

That day, she also met Li Si.

Remembering the second time she saw Li Si in the palace, he didn’t recognize her, she was also too lazy to say anything, pretending that they had never met before. The two had asked each other some questions, and that’s when she finally understood, his name was Li Si, he was the imperial palace’s head guard.

Head guard? It was difficult to describe him as scary. She kind of wanted to laugh, but decided that maybe the opposite party had a hardship that was difficult to talk about, so she didn’t ask.

Looking at the flowers in the garden, Yan Xuan saw a peony in full bloom, proud and gorgeous, she couldn’t resist inching forward to carefully get a better look.

A few butterflies landed on her head. Gracefully, a few strands of hair fell into her face, increasing her allure.

She imagined that in everyone else’s eyes, she became as beautiful as the scenery.

“Yan Xuan.”

She tilted her head, humbly smiling, “Li Si, what a coincidence.”

He really didn’t seem like a head guard, what kind of guard could leave and play whenever he wanted. His capacity for lying didn’t seem very high.

Every time she went to the imperial palace, she could meet up with him most of the time. They would always chat and forget the time until the sun set.

Just like this, with a caring friend, going bankrupt wasn’t bad.

He stopped himself again, with an odd expression, a faint flush visible upon his fair face.

“Yan Xuan…… The next time you come to the imperial palace, where will you go?”

He had asked that last time, and she blinked a few times, her black eyes reflecting is silhouette. After, a little sentence shattered the romantic aura around them.

“I want to go to the kitchen, they always give such good food.”

“……”


Two year’s time had passed, Yan Xuan had changed from an ignorant little girl into a graceful young maiden. When she walked on the road, lots of people said that she looked like a goddess, extremely beautiful. But Yan Xuan who was wholeheartedly infatuated with an enterprise in snacks was deaf to those words, and never realized that she belonged to the category of “pretty” people.

In her left hand was a rock candy skewer, in her right a bag of pine candy, leaving the poor Tang Beichen behind to pay.

Eating food with someone trailing after her was not pleasant.

Taking advantage of butler Tang , she bought herself a sesame seed cake. Yan Xuan went all out, charging forwards, and even though she was far she could still hear butler Tang calling her.

Satisfied, she glanced back and, while walking forwards, bumped into a “wall”.

Ouch! It hurts!!

Her nose was filled with the smell of wine, an enticing smell, intoxicating her.

There were usually men who completely smelt like alcohol on this street, and even if they were far away from her, a little sniff of the smell would make her want to vomit all the contents in her stomach, but this was different.

Originally she wanted to smell it a little more, but the opposite party spoke one sentence, making her shake in fear, taking three steps back.

“Little lady, you look pretty good. Come follow me home.”

She originally wanted to ask if his house could make sweets better than butler Tang, if it wasn’t good, why would she follow him?

His voice stopped, and he leaned against the wall, spitting. Yan Xuan had to say, even though he was spitting, his back still looked good.

Wiping her feet with oil, she slipped away faster than a donkey. God, this was the first time she had met a sexual harasser.

After she ran far away, she felt a little regretful, her heart a little disappointed. She didn’t get to see what that person looked like, it was weirdly pitiful.

Butler Tang anxiously squeezed out from the crowd, and, upon seeing her completely unharmed, smiled in relief, heaving a sigh, but she was still cradling the sesame seed cake in her lap with a darkened face while sitting on the bridge side without making a sound.

This…. Was this…. Anger?

Yan Xuan guiltily prodded him, “Butler Tang?”

No reply.

“Brother Bei Chen?” Pinch pinch pinch pinch pinch pinch pinch!!

Still no reaction.

She pouted, it looked like she would have to use her trump card. Clearing her throat, grabbing his hand, and saying, “Xiao Tangtang!!”

“Hah……” Butler Tang once again choked, gasping for breath, glowering at her.

“Hehe……” She laughed foolishly, “still angry?”
