“I think it’s break time.” Fen Wén stood up and stretched her body. The girl looked around and saw that a few servants were also taking a break.
“Can I leave you for a while?” Fen Wén asked the girl who was washing the dish with her earlier.
The girl nervously nodded, “O-of course! Take your time.”
“Thanks. I’m going to the garden. If someone is searching for me just let them know.” Fen Wén flashed a smile and walked out.
She had left a message telling where she was heading in case someone needed her service or maybe Mao Mao would want her to serve him.
Thinking about Mao Mao, Fen Wén stiffened. The girl slowed down her speed as tears started to gather at the corner of her eyes.
’No, no. I have to forget him. He’s now engaged!’ Fen Wén wiped her tears and speed up to the garden next to the banquet hall.
There wasn’t anyone at the garden thus Fen Wén thought she would be able to rest peacefully.
Just right when Fen Wén arrived at the garden, Mao Mao also arrived at the dishwashing area.
Not caring about his image, he barged in with sweat drenching his face.
“Where’s Fen Wén??” The young man shouted, startling the servants washing the dishes.
Mao Mao looked around and upon not finding the girl he wanted to find, his heart dropped low.
The young man gritted his teeth and walked fast toward the closest servant. His face inched closer to one of the servants there and with a glare, he repeated his question.
“Where is she??”
His breath was rough. His voice was hoarse sounding tired. Not to mention that the young man was panting hard. People would surely know that he’s in a hurry.
Eyes widened in shock, the servant shrunk back. Trembling, he answered in a stutter. “I-i I don’t know-”
Mao Mao didn’t let the young man finish his words as he abruptly turned around and asked another female servant. “Where is she? I heard she’s here.”
As he asked, his eyes were glinting like a beast, almost making the girl cried out loud.
“T-that…that…” the girl lowered her head. Her shoulder shook. Her body was trembling like a pitiful squirrel.
How could she not be terrified? Their young prime minister suddenly came and started to interrogate everyone!
Seeing one of her friends was cornered, the girl who knew where Fen Wén was, slowly opened her mouth.
“S-she went to the garden…” the girl said in a faint voice.
Mao Mao who was about to ask again stopped in his track. He turned around to look at the girl.
“Thank you.” The young man bent his back a bit before pivoting around. He immediately dashed out of the room heading full speed to the garden.
The young man left the dumbfounded servants, not knowing what actually happened here.
Garden.
“Hhhh…” Fen Wén sighed as she swayed her legs.
The girl was sitting on a swing under a huge tree, just staring off to the flowers at the garden.
The colourful flowers added with greenish trees and grass somehow soothed her heart.
“…now what to do?” Fen Wén mumbled to herself as she tightened her grip on the swing’s rope.
Should she give up now? Or maybe stopped being Mao Mao’s maidservant?
After all, she wouldn’t have the heart to see him with another woman.
Fen Wén knitted her eyebrows and another sigh slipped out of her lips.
The girl mindlessly kicked off the ground to propel the swing.
“Maybe I really have to forget him.” Fen Wén muttered to herself. “He’s a prime minister. Me? I’m just a maidservant.”
Fen Wén lowered her head and stared at the grass below.
But could she move on that fast?
“Impossible.” Fen Wén shook her head and kept her head down, not noticing a certain panda was walking toward her.
“….maybe I should wish them happiness…” Fen Wén whispered again and suddenly, a familiar voice rang near her.
“Wish happiness to whom?”
!
Fen Wén’s eyesight was filled with black shoes. Her ears suddenly buzzer and the girl couldn’t help but raised her head only to see the young man she didn’t want to see, was there standing in front of her.
“Ah-” Fen Wén abruptly stood up. The girl suddenly dodged Mao Mao and was about to run avoiding him when the young man grabbed her wrist.
!
“Master-” Fen Wén shook off the hand yet it won’t budge.
“Why are you running?”
A hoarse voice sounded behind and the next second, Fen Wén felt her body was tugged back with quite a strong force.
“Ah!”
The girl lost her balance and the next thing she knew, her back hit a certain someone’s chest.
BA-THUMP!
Fen Wén’s heart skipped a bit. Her face blushed red.
’T-this…Mao Mao is behind me??’
Fen Wén’s body froze stiff. Somehow she could felt Mao Mao’s warm breath hitting her neck.
Realizing her situation, the girl immediately tried to push Mao Mao away but her left wrist was being gripped tight by the young man behind.
She was supposed to be stronger but strangely today, she felt so weak!
“M-master this is inappropriate…” Fen Wén suddenly whispered while keep trying to distance herself from Mao Mao but Mao Mao used his right hand to catch the girls waist.
“Is it?” Mao Mao hugged Fen Wén closer, not having any intention to let go.
!!
“M-master y-you you-” Steam raised from Fen Wén’s head. The girl felt like something exploded in her mind.
’Why is Mao Mao hugging me?! He’s hugging me from behind!! Ah ah ah!!!’
