Chapter 280: Eat Her Up (1)
A new set of clothes was quickly sent to her, but she never looked at her. Her mind was still a mess like she didn’t even know where she was.
Gong Jue was too frightening before. Perhaps that was his true self, and the cleverness and obedience he showed her in the past, may have been all disguised...
Gong Yimo lightly bit her lower lip and hugged her knees, shrinking herself into a small ball.
Why would he like her?
The knowledge that Gong Jue liked her almost drove her mad! How could this happen? First, it was Gong Che, now it was Gong Jue. She was a little scared and deep inside, she wanted to leave again.
After rebirth, the life she led in her previous life made her want to lead a simpler life in this lifetime.
If she could solve the problem, then she should solve it. If she can’t solve the problem, she should just let it go and maybe when she comes back to it later, it would solve itself... and the matter regarding Gong Jue was something she couldn’t resolve, so wasn’t it better to let it go?
Gong Jue was only thirteen years old, he was at the age where he was still ignorant towards relationships. It was also an age where it was easiest for him to switch his target of affection. As long as she disappears for a while, and Gong Jue marries someone else, then this relationship will be treated like nothing. He will forget about it...
However...
She glanced at the state she was in right now.
Because she took the pill, she not only lost her inner strength, but her hands and feet were also weak. Under this circumstance, how could she leave Prince Qi’s residence?
Will the situation worsen if she left this way?
Gong Yimo, who usually does things without thinking about the consequences, for the first time in her life, began to seriously consider this possibility.
It would be great if she could turn back time. She will definitely act as a good parent when she raises Gong Jue again!
It was already afternoon when Gong Yimo changed her clothes and finished thinking about it.
As soon as she went out the door, she met Xin’er, who had been waiting for her for a long time. Seeing that she was coming, Xin’er smiled as she walked over with a bowl of cow milk, “Princess must be hungry. Please drink this bowl of cow milk to sate your hunger first. They are still warming up your meal, it’s all your favorite dishes!”
Steam was still coming out from the bowl of cow milk. The silver bowl that contained the cow milk was embedded with pearls. She was somewhat absent-minded as she looked at the bowl of cow milk and then at the smiling Xin’er.
She wondered, “You already knew... Gong Jue likes me?”
She doesn’t know why, but she felt a little shy when she said the word like.
Xin’er smiled slowly, revealing two dimples as she withdrew her hand.
“Isn’t it natural for His Highness to like the princess?”
“Xin’er!” Gong Yimo slightly frowned, she thought that Xin’er was timid but calm, yet she would’ve never thought that she would help Gong Jue hide it from her.
“You know that I’m not talking about that kind of like.”
Xin’er had a serious expression on, “This servant knows what the princess is talking about. This servant had known a long time ago that His Highness adores the princess.”
Although she had gently said it, Gong Yimo’s eyes widened in surprise.
“It was when His Highness was about nine years old, at that time, the princess was sleeping, and His Highness would try his best to find an excuse to sleep with you. He had also intentionally and unintentionally touched the princess’s face multiple times. On several occasions, this servant had seen His Highness watch you with extreme longing when you sleep. At that time, His Highness was young, so he didn’t dare to do anything.”
It seemed like the shock wasn’t enough as she blinked her eyes and said, “Everyone in the residence knows that His Highness loves you for a long time...”
So, she was the last to know?
(T/N Kitty Jiu: *sigh* for someone like Gong Yimo who was married in her last life, I’m surprised she couldn’t tell this kid was in love with her)
