The rescued villainous lady wants to go home with me

"Hello." The maid looked Aiqi up and down, "You seem to be from His Highness's residence."

For the maids, they all work in the same mansion, and even if they can't call each other's name, they can roughly remember each other's appearance.

And obviously, Ai Qi is not a maid here, but they saw her coming with Lorraine not long ago.

"Yes." Ai Qi continued, "Your Highness asked me to see how Miss Xueni is doing now."

"That's it."

Although today's incident has not been spread out, people in Gretel's family and Lorraine's mansion generally know that Lorraine and Xue Ni turned into children.

After all, there was an extra child on both sides at the same time.

Especially the maid who worked in Gretel's mansion a long time ago also found that Xue Ni's appearance now is exactly the same as her childhood appearance.

Although they were guessing what happened, they didn't dare to speak casually when it came to His Highness the Second Highness.

"Come with me," the maid said.

Since it was Lorraine who asked her to come over to check, it shouldn't be a problem for him to take her over to see Xueni.

Under the guidance of the maid of Gretel's mansion, Aiqi came to the door of Xueni's room.

"Miss Xueni has been staying in the room since she came back." The maid was somewhat worried.

Walking forward, the maid knocked lightly on the door and said, "Miss Xueni."

After waiting for a while, they all wondered if there was really someone inside, or if the other party was doing something.

Just as the maid was about to knock on the door again, a voice came from inside.

"Please come in."

Hearing the voice of the child inside, the maid opened the door and walked in.

As soon as they entered the room, apart from Xueni who was there, the two also noticed that the wardrobes in the room were all opened, revealing the clothes inside.

"Miss Xueni, are you looking for something?" the maid asked.

If it wasn't for the fact that there were no other abnormalities in the room, the maid would have thought that a thief had entered.

"No." Xueni said very little, and her eyes were a little erratic, as if she was hiding a child who had done something wrong. To be precise, she is a child now.

Seeing nothing strange, the maid didn't dare to ask any more questions.

This is Xueni's house, she is free to do whatever she wants, even if she looks like a child now.

Ai Qi stepped forward, knelt down, and asked softly, "Miss Xueni, do you still remember me?"

Xue Ni looked at Ai Qi, and remembered that this was the maid who grabbed the corner of her skirt after changing her clothes in the Lorraine mansion, "Yeah."

Seeing that Xueni still remembered her, Aiqi breathed a sigh of relief, which made it easier to ask questions.

He didn't want to be inexplicably wary of Xueni.

"Is there something wrong with you now?"

Not knowing why Ai Qi suddenly asked this, Xue Ni shook her head in response.

Ai Qi then asked, "Then what do you remember?"

This time, Xue Ni hesitated for a moment, then shook her head again after a while.

"It's like this." Ai Qi showed a bit regretful expression.

In fact, according to Lorraine, it is enough for me to ask the first question, but Ai Qi is also very concerned about whether Xue Ni thinks of anything.

After returning, although Xue Ni did not hear the conversation between Lorraine and Naba, she knew from the whispers of the maids outside the door that something seemed to have happened to her.

Even the room in front of me is obviously similar to what I remember, but all the clothes in the closet are not suitable for me now, which makes Xue Ni confirm this point even more.

It's just that I really can't think of anything now, and it can even be said that my mind is very confused.

It was as if I was looking for some kind of clue in a ball of paper that was kneaded into a ball.

"That...that."

Ai Qi was about to get up to say goodbye, but was stopped by Xue Ni.

"What's wrong, Miss Xueni?" Aiqi asked.

Xueni pursed her lips, hesitated for a while, and then said, "Well, I want to know, what is the relationship between me and that person? Did he and I really know each other before?"

Ai Qi and the maid next to her looked at each other with surprise in their eyes.

Seeing this, Xue Ni still cares about Lorraine.

But Xueni had asked this question before, and Aiqi didn't know how to tell her now. After thinking for a long time, she said, "You are lovers, right, you are lovers."

Lorraine and Xue Ni are not officially engaged yet, so it is not wrong to say they are lovers.

From their point of view, they can feel that Lorraine and Xueni are not limited to this level.

Just telling Xueni, who is a child in front of her, that a certain person is your lover, which makes Ai Qi feel very delicate.

"Lover?!" Xue Ni looked surprised, then reached out and grabbed the clothes on her chest.

It seems that he wants to understand the reason why he was blocked in his heart before.

I don't know why, but I obviously have no impression of that person now, but I don't seem to be opposed to this answer.

At least the body didn't show any resistance.

"Miss Xueni, did you remember something?" Ai Qi asked

Xue Ni tried hard to think of something, but still couldn't think of anything.

"Can you tell me, how did I meet him? Or what happened?"

"Let me tell you this, there should be no problem." Ai Qi was not sure if she could say it.

Whether it is the maid at Lorraine's mansion or the maid at Gretel's house, they all know that Lorraine and Xuenie have a close relationship, and have seen how they get along.

But when the two stayed together, other people rarely bothered them, so they knew very little.

And Xueni's condition is not very good now, so she doesn't know if she can say it.

Seeing what Ai Qi was worried about, Xue Ni said, "Just tell me, I won't tell anyone else."

Hearing this, Aiqi smiled awkwardly. It didn't seem like it was a question of whether to tell others or not.

It's really a child's thinking.

Seeing that Xueni was so persistent, Ai Qi could no longer refuse. She sorted out her thoughts in her mind for a while, and then she told Xueni what they had seen and heard about the two of them.

I don't know where to start, so Ai Qi simply started from the first time she saw Xueni in the Lorraine mansion.

It was also from that time that they often saw Lorraine and Xueni staying together.

Chapter 22

memory in a box

Aiqi told what happened between Xue Ni and Lorraine from the perspective of a bystander.

She was obviously listening to others talk about her own affairs, but Xueni felt like she was listening to a story.

So when Ai Qi was talking, she sat quietly by the bed and listened to the pillow.

Of course, Ai Qi doesn't know much, and most things can only be briefly summarized.

After telling everything she knew, Ai Qi breathed a sigh of relief, with an indescribable sense of relief.

This is what they look like when they chat in private, and it can be regarded as an alternative way to relax.

After listening, Xueni thought for a while, trying to combine the girl Ai Qi was talking about with herself.

"Is what she said true?" Xue Ni asked another maid next to her, asking her for confirmation.

"Yes, ma'am."

Except for what she saw, what Aiqi said was not much different from what she had heard from others before.

"It turned out to be like this." Xue Ni murmured a few words to herself, and then looked at her own palm, which was the same palm she used to slap Lorraine before.

Seeing Xueni's Ruosi look, Ai Qi looked out the window and found that the sky had completely darkened.

"Ah, bad, it's so late!"

As she was busy talking about things, Aiqi didn't notice the time at all.

"Sorry, Miss Xueni, I have to go back." Ai Qi said, "Your Highness is still waiting for my news."

"Yeah." Xue Ni said to the maid in her mansion, "You can send her off."

"Ok."

After the two of them walked out, Xueni got up and got out of bed, leaning her ear against the door and listening to their footsteps walking away.

Xue Ni quickly ran to her bed, obviously there was no one else in the room, but she still looked left and right to confirm again.

Then leaned over and leaned under the bed, and slowly moved a small box out.

Because of this series of actions, Xue Ni's hair has become a little messy, but she doesn't care at all.

Seeing the dust on the small box, Xue Ni was stunned.

"I seem to have really shrunk."

Xue Ni still can't remember what the maids said, but as far as he can remember now, he hid this box not long ago.

But now it's full of dust.

Perhaps, what I remember not long ago is already a few years ago in the eyes of others.

It's just that I really can't remember what they said.

Looking at it like this, I should be back to the past now, whether it is memory or body.

This speculation sounds absurd, but it is the only one that can explain the current situation.

"Cough cough cough."

Because of Xueni's opening, the dust on the small box spread all around, causing her to cough a few times.

Xue Ni waved her hands in front of her indiscriminately a few times before she managed to disperse the dust.

If the maid from just now was here, you would find that the boxes contained small toys that ordinary children often play with.

She may wonder why Xueni has these things.

After all, as the heirs of nobles, their parents would not allow them to touch these gadgets.

It seems that because they have been left for too long, many things have been stained by time, and some have even been completely broken.

Xue Ni rummaged inside, and finally found a few small yellowed books at the bottom.

"Found it!" Xue Ni subconsciously smiled.

But when he looked at other things in the small box that could already be discarded as sundries, his smile froze slowly again.

These things have indeed brought me happiness, but they are also accompanied by other unhappy things.

In my memory at this time, although I had an elder brother, every time he went out to play, he would not bring me with him, and he directly told himself that he was just a burden, so he didn't want to take her with him.

As for his father, as a newcomer to the noble position, he is busy all day long, and basically has no time to pay attention to himself.

Even if he stepped forward, he would only respond to him indifferently, then turn around and walk away.

The only time he could speak was mostly after he had attended a gathering of nobles, or visited other nobles, and came to ask about his studies, and then reprimanded him for everything that was not outstanding.

Sometimes, Xueni is really confused. Does she want to talk to her father, or does she dare not talk to him?

As for the others, there seemed to be no one else.

Until one day, when several maids were going out to buy things, he made a noise and forced them to compromise and bring him with them. It was then that he began to come into contact with these civilian toys.

After that, she used these toys to play with herself.

The maids reminded Xueni that her father would not allow her to touch these things.

So Xue Ni could only choose the most direct and effective method, which was to put them in a box and hide them under the bed.

Xue Ni shook her head, collected her thoughts, and looked back at the small book that was already on her lap.
