Red Mansion Beijingwang

Xiaoxiang Pavilion.

Daiyu's cheeks were as rosy as clouds, like a blooming lotus. Her slender hand was held by the young man. Her heart was beating fast and her mind was in a mess.

When we arrived at the side room, we saw steam rising from the bathtub in the middle and flower petals floating in the pool.

Xiren came forward, her sparkling eyes looking at the young man from under her willow-shaped eyebrows, a touch of rouge appeared on her pretty face, and she bowed and said, "My Lord, Miss."

Since the prince is bathing here at Miss Lin's place, he will probably stay overnight, so she can also benefit from it. The thought makes Xiren's heart beat fast.

At this time, the girl came back to her senses, her face flushed like clouds, her heart full of shame, how did she get led to the side room by her brother without knowing why, wasn't this agreeing to take a bath with her brother?
Shui Rong turned around and looked at the shy Daiyu, pinched the girl's soft little hand, and said jokingly: "You are already an old couple, why are you still so embarrassed?"

In fact, although Shui Rong had not taken things to the final step with Daiyu, except for that step, he had completed all the other necessary steps. They knew each other well. Now it was nothing more than taking a bath, so there was no need to be shy.

Daiyu was so ashamed when she heard this that she glanced at the boy with her eyes that seemed to be frowning but not frowning, and said shyly, "Brother~"

What old married couple? They are not that at all. Well, they are basically husband and wife, but that is not an excuse to take a bath together. It is so embarrassing.

Shui Rong chuckled, stretched out his hand to pinch the girl's chin and lifted it up slightly, staring at her peach-like cheek, then leaned over and kissed the girl's crystal lips, tenderly.

Daiyu felt ashamed, wondering why her brother was so obsessed with her.

But having said that, facing her brother's obsession, the girl's heart was not repelled. Her snow-white cheeks were rosy, her two curved eyebrows drooped, her bright starry eyes closed, and she raised her head slightly, taking advantage of the young man.

Xiren, who was standing by, was no longer a simple-minded person. She showed no emotion when she saw this scene. However, Zijuan, who was as blank as a sheet of paper, looked at this scene with her pretty face flushed.

The prince is so familiar. I wonder how the girl feels.

After a while, Daiyu's cheeks were flushed, and her breath was as sweet as orchid. He captured that touch of tenderness inch by inch, making the girl's delicate body soften and the straight hair under her skirt slightly close together.

Shui Rong held the girl's face in his hands, staring at her beautiful face. His heart moved slightly, and he said softly, "Sister, can you help me change my clothes?"

When Daiyu heard this, her heart trembled. She glanced at the boy shyly with her bright starry eyes. She lowered her beautiful head slightly and responded softly with a blushing face.

Since she and her brother are in this situation, it is her duty. It is normal for her to help her brother change his clothes.

Shui Rong chuckled and opened his arms. From his delicate brows, he stared at the shy girl, waiting for Lin Daiyu's service.

Daiyu raised her shy starry eyes and looked at the boy. Her heart was shy. She bit her pink lips lightly with her pearly teeth, and her slender hands trembled as she reached for the boy's belt.

Although they knew each other well, this was the first time she had received such service, and it was inevitable that she felt embarrassed.

As Daiyu served tremblingly, she took off her clothes one by one and handed them to Zijuan, whose face had already blushed. When only a piece of cloth was left to cover her body, the girl's heart trembled. She looked up at the boy's teasing gaze, and she spat in shame, tilted her head slightly, not daring to look directly at him, and gritted her teeth to pull the clothes off.

With a "snap" sound, the sound of bamboo joints hitting each other was heard, which immediately startled Daiyu.

Feeling the burning sensation on her cheeks, Daiyu's cheeks flushed red, her heart began to beat, and she felt too embarrassed to face others. She heard a suppressed smile in her ears, which immediately made the girl embarrassed and annoyed. She said angrily, "You are still laughing, I won't pay attention to you anymore."

Really, she has no sense of shame and her brother still laughs at her.

Shui Rong chuckled, stretched out his hand to pull the girl up, and said: "My sister is just unskilled. As you serve more in the future, you will become proficient in it."

All in all, Shui Rong was enjoying Daiyu's service for the first time. It was normal for a girl who didn't know the details to make mistakes.

Daiyu was extremely ashamed and angry, but when she thought about the young man's words carefully, she felt that they made a lot of sense. If she had not tilted her head and leaned over, she would not have been slapped so hard.

Hey, brother, what you said means that you want her to serve you more in the future.

Thinking of this, Daiyu felt extremely ashamed and angry, and wanted to say something sarcastic. However, she changed her mind and thought that since she was her brother's person, it was only natural for her to serve him, so she swallowed her words back.

At this time, Zijuan, who had hung her clothes on the screen, came over with a red face and said, "Miss, I will help you change your clothes."

Shui Rong waved his hand, put it on the girl's collar, and said, "No need, since my sister has changed my clothes for me, I should serve her. This is called returning a favor. You two go to the inner room and wait."

When Zijuan heard this, she understood and took a step back with a blushing face, then walked out with Xiren.

Daiyu's cheeks flushed red as she felt the boy's hand in front of her. She felt ashamed and glared at him shyly with her starry eyes, but she did not stop him.

How can you return a favor? You are so careless and not afraid of the cold.
As her skirt fell to the ground, Shui Rong looked at the slender girl in front of him. Her shoulders were fully exposed, and her snow-white skin was like a crystal-clear gem with a glittering luster. The rosy blush on her jade-like face was white with a hint of red, bright and charming.

She is truly a pure and flawless jade.

Daiyu saw the young man looking at her, and she was so embarrassed that she could not suppress her shyness. She clasped her delicate hands in front of her body, bit her lips with her pearly teeth, and said shyly, "You are still looking at me."

It was embarrassing enough, but he looked at me so openly, and his burning gaze made my heart tremble.

Shui Rong smiled, approached the girl and hugged her, saying, "Sister is so pretty, brother can't help himself, let's go soak in the tub, don't let sister feel cold."

Daiyu listened to the boy's words. Her heart was shy but also a little happy. Surrounded by the young man, she suppressed her shame and dissolved into the bathtub with the water.

Although her brother was carefree, his concern and love for her were real. Since she was already his woman, it was justified for him to be so intimate with her.

Entering the steamy bathtub, the warm water wrapped around her body, and the aroma of flower petals and spices lingered, which calmed the shy girl a little.

Just being held in the boy's arms and the touch of his skin made Daiyu tremble and feel shy.

Shui Rong held the warm water in the tub and poured it over the girl's fair skin, and asked softly, "Pin'er, what was your coming-of-age ceremony like today? Did you have a great time?"

Daiyu felt something strange in front of her, her heart trembled slightly, and she couldn't help but spit inwardly. She thought the boy was just teasing her, saying that he was helping her take a bath, but she didn't expect that the boy was serious!
Biting her pink lips with her pearly teeth, Daiyu said shyly, "It's just setting up a few tables of banquets, ordering a few plays, and having fun with Bao-jie and the others. There's nothing else to it."

Shui Rong was silent for a while, then he put his arm around the girl's shoulders and said softly, "Pin'er, it's such a happy day today, but you missed it. It's really wrong."

Daiyu felt relieved when she heard this. She looked at the young man shyly with her bright eyes and said softly, "Brother, you are busy with work. How can you let your love ruin your work? I am not a child who doesn't understand things."

Shui Rong smiled knowingly. Although Daiyu's words sounded so nice at this moment, if she hadn't explained it this way, she would have been so upset that she would have secretly wiped away her tears in the middle of the night.

It’s not that Daiyu is ignorant, but that’s just her personality. She cares about emotional value, and when the emotions are given enough, she becomes a reasonable Daiyu.

Shui Rong weighed his hands and said jokingly, "Indeed, Pin'er has grown up and is no longer a child."

It used to be a crescent-shaped bud, but now it is almost a crescent, which means it has grown.

Daiyu's cheeks were flushed, and under her two curved eyebrows, her bright eyes bashfully glanced at the young man, raised her hand to knock down the mischievous hand, and spat, "I'm taking a bath, stop making trouble."

Sometimes he's serious, sometimes he's frivolous. How could he be so dissolute? Yet she can't get enough of him.

Shui Rong stared at the girl's shy face, chuckled, reached his hand into the warm water, and said jokingly: "Pin'er is right, let's take a good bath and wash it clean."

Daiyu's heart trembled, her cheeks burned like fire, and she hurriedly pushed the boy's hand away, scolding him: "If you keep making trouble like this, I will be really angry."

Why should I wash this guy? If I let him continue to do this, I'm afraid I'll get hurt. It's so embarrassing.

Shui Rong didn't care about the girl's shame and annoyance. He held the girl's soft little hand, guided it, and said with a smile: "Then sister, help me wash it clean, otherwise I will be disgusted."

Daiyu's hands trembled, her heart was filled with shame, her two curved eyebrows slightly raised, and she spat, "Bah, you wishful thinking." What do you mean by disdain? Do you think she doesn't know the boy's intention? She knew that she would not have peace when taking a bath with her brother, and it turned out to be true. She shouldn't have been so foolish as to let her brother do such a ridiculous thing.

"Okay, okay, let's stop making trouble."

Seeing that the girl was really getting embarrassed and angry, Shui Rong decided to stop while he was ahead. As for whether he wanted to be beautiful or not, he would know the answer later.

Thinking of this, Shui Rong stopped teasing Daiyu and held the girl in his arms to bathe her gently. After a while, they got out of the bathtub, took the dry towels that had been prepared on the side, and wiped themselves carefully.

After the two of them dried themselves, Shui Rong casually threw the towel into the bathtub, walked forward and hugged the girl's waist, and said softly: "Pin'er, let's go to the inner room."

At this time, Daiyu had just taken a bath, and her white and tender face was like a blooming hibiscus, bright and shiny. Hearing the young man's words, she said shyly, "Brother, please put on your clothes first~"

She originally wanted to put on her clothes first, but as soon as she finished speaking, the young man came up and blocked her from saying the next word. Then she felt the changes in the plumpness behind her, and she felt embarrassed.

Why is my brother like this?
Shui Rong pursed her lips and whispered softly, "Let's go to the inner room to avoid trouble."

I put it on now and have to take it off later. Why bother with that? I might as well save my energy and go directly to the inner room.

Daiyu was held up from the front at this moment, and her slender hands subconsciously wrapped around the boy's neck. She could vaguely feel the roughness of his neck. Her snow-white face flushed red, and her heart was already filled with shame.

This is too shameful.

Going back in time a little, after Zijuan and Xiren came from the side room to the inner room, their pretty faces were tinged with a hint of rosy red, and their hearts were filled with shyness.

Zijuan poured a cup of tea on the table and started to drink it. After suppressing her restlessness, her eyes became dazed and sad. Suddenly she said, "Xiren, why don't you wait in the inner room? I'll go back first."

Xiren looked up at Zijuan's gloomy expression, and understood what was going on. She smiled and said, "Didn't the prince tell us to wait in the inner room? What will happen if you leave?"

They were all maids, so they knew each other well. Besides, Xiren's experience was much richer than Zijuan's, so her judgment of people was also more accurate.

Zijuan's pretty face showed an unnatural look, and she sighed, "Why should I stay here to get in the way? Don't let others dislike me for nothing."

It seems that the prince will stay in Xiaoxiang Pavilion today, but seeing that the prince has always been indifferent to her, she'd better not make herself unhappy.

Xiren is acting openly and honestly, what's going on with her?

If you think about it carefully, she was the closest maid to Daiyu, but Xiren came later and won the favor of the prince. That day, she saw with her own eyes that Daiyu and Xiren were serving the prince together.

Xiren knew Zijuan's thoughts, so she chuckled and cursed, "What a stupid girl! Since the prince has kept you here, I think he has some intention. If you want to leave, go ahead. Don't regret it if you miss this opportunity."

Zijuan's heart paused when she heard this, and she looked at Xiren in surprise. Her silent heart was moved, and a light rouge appeared on her pretty face. She said, "Don't tease me."

How come she didn't notice that the prince had feelings for her?

Xiren rolled her eyes and said, "Why would I tease you? Think carefully. Last time you barged in, did the prince chase you out? This time he asked you to serve in the inner room. It's obvious that he has this in mind."

In fact, there is one thing Xiren didn’t say, that is, when Zijuan broke in last time, she could keenly feel the prince’s throbbing. It has come to this, and you tell me that the prince has no thoughts?
The reason is simple, Zijuan's appearance is no worse than hers, and all men have feelings for pretty girls, it's called masculinity.

Zijuan's heart was moved when she heard this. She felt that what Zijuan said made sense. If the prince didn't have this intention, why did he want to keep her with him?
Thinking of this, Zijuan felt shy, her pretty face flushed slightly, and her breathing became a little rapid.

Xiren didn't say much when she saw this. Zijuan was so smart, but when it came to her, no matter how smart she was, she would be blinded by one thing.

The reason why she woke up Zijuan was, firstly, they were originally maids of the Jia family and they were familiar with each other, and secondly, the prince already had this idea and she was just going along with it.

Just at this moment, the two heard the noise and looked over. They saw the prince walking in with Daiyu in his arms, and their faces blushed.

Xiren had seen the world and had even practiced it herself, so she was not at a loss. But Zijuan's pretty face flushed red and she secretly cursed in her heart.

The prince has so many tricks up his sleeve that I don’t know if the girl can handle it.

Shui Rong ignored the two of them and walked straight towards the bed. As soon as he put the person down, Daiyu quickly pulled up the thin mattress beside her to cover her body.

Seeing this situation, Shui Rong couldn't help but laugh. He had seen everything he should have seen, so what was there to hide?

Sister Lin, you are just trying to cover up your mistakes.

Daiyu, who was lying on the bed, saw the young man getting on the bed. Her delicate body trembled, and her snowy face became hot as fire. Her bright eyes glanced at the two people who lowered their eyebrows and eyes, and said shyly, "Brother, please stop making trouble."

I was teased like this and it was seen by Xiren and Zijuan. I felt so embarrassed.

Shui Rong didn't care. He lay beside the girl, staring at her shy face, and said jokingly with a smile, "We are all family, why are you embarrassed, sister?"

Not to mention that Xiren was Daiyu's comrade-in-arms, Zijuan was also a witness, so how could it be shameful?

Daiyu's cheeks flushed, and she glanced at the young man with her beautiful eyes. She turned her head slightly and spat, "Don't try to take advantage of Zijuan."

Don’t think that Daiyu couldn’t understand what the young man meant by “one of our own people”. Xiren can be said to be one of his own people, but Zijuan is an innocent girl, so how could she refer to one of her own people?

Humph, you’re just targeting Zijuan, your philandering brother.

Zijuan's heart moved when she heard the words. She raised her eyes to look at the prince on the bed. When she saw how heroic the young man was, her heart couldn't help but warm up and she turned her head away shyly.

Does the prince have any thoughts on this?

Shui Rong smiled but did not refute. After all, Zijuan was of good character and appearance, and stood out among the many maids. Everyone has a love for beauty, and it is normal for her to be likable.

In the original novel, Daiyu didn't care about Xiren. It can be seen that although she seems narrow-minded on the surface, she is actually very tolerant and generous, and does not get entangled in these trivial matters.

If Daiyu cared about this matter, she would not have this attitude now, and would have been sarcastic and critical long ago.

Shui Rong came forward, hovered over the crescent moon of the girl, and asked vaguely: "Zijuan has been with me for many years. I wonder what my sister plans to do in the future?"

Daiyu's heart trembled, she lowered her eyes to look at the boy who seemed like a child, and she secretly spit in her heart, thinking that he deliberately brought up Zijuan's matter, and he was targeting Zijuan.

Daiyu tilted her head slightly, and glanced at Zijuan, who lowered her eyebrows and eyes, with her bright eyes. She said with a trembling voice: "What plans can I make, it depends on what Zijuan thinks."

She probably knew something about Zijuan's thoughts. Since her brother mentioned this matter, she would let Zijuan make the decision herself.

Whether she falls into her brother's trap or not depends on her choice.

Shui Rong didn't say anything after hearing this, he stepped forward and said, "Let me serve my sister."

Daiyu: "..."

This... He teased her before, and now it's not enough, he wants her to serve him again. Is he so obsessed with her body?
Having said that, Daiyu was also uneasy at this time, and did not say anything. She tilted her head to the side, her bright starry eyes narrowed slightly, and her heart was filled with shyness.

Shui Rong smiled knowingly upon seeing this, and was not shy.

After a while, Shui Rong lowered his eyes to look at the beautiful face of the girl, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. When he was about to say something, Daiyu seemed to be frightened and said shyly, "Don't say anything."

Every time this happens, he would tease her. She knows it all too well. (End of this chapter)
