"Your palm is so big." Xue Ni sighed.

I often hold Lorraine's hand, but this is the first time for Xue Ni to make such a careful comparison.

Now I can clearly see that whether it is the palm or the fingers, Lorraine's is bigger than himself.

Lorraine paused, "Aren't you worried, will you encounter any trouble?"

It can only be said that it is fortunate that Xueni learned a little bit a while ago, otherwise, if she is really asked to cook by herself, she will be in a hurry.

"Is there any trouble?"

Xue Ni didn't know what Lorraine was referring to, but just recalled the things she had encountered during this period, and then squeezed the palm that was holding Lorraine.

"As long as you are by my side, no matter how troublesome things are, I think there is hope to solve them."

At least since starting to act with Lorraine, most of the problems encountered have been solved.

It's like finding a partner for adventure.

Of course, if Lorraine dared to say that he was just a partner, Xue Ni felt that he would really be angry.

"Okay." Lorraine got up and stood up, "Drink some hot soup to warm up your body."

After taking out the soup, put it in front of Xue Ni who was already sitting at the table.

Lorraine is a little lucky. Although the maids are not there, he can still do some simple things, maybe a little better than Xueni.

Thinking of the food made by Lorraine last time, Xue Ni couldn't wait.

It's just that as soon as the spoon was put into his mouth, Xue Ni took it out immediately.

Seeing that Xueni almost knocked things over, Lorraine asked quickly, "What's wrong?"

I saw Xue Ni sticking out her tongue and putting her hands next to her mouth, as if she didn't know whether she should touch her tongue or not.

"Hot...so hot."

"Why are you in such a hurry." Lorraine slightly moved the hot soup next to him to prevent Xueni from touching it accidentally.

Sitting next to Xueni, Lorraine said, "Let me see if it's serious."

Xue Ni still maintained the posture just now, with a sense of sight of a small animal sticking out its tongue to dissipate heat, but there seemed to be an inexplicable grievance in the eyes, which aroused pity.

After looking at Xue Ni's tongue, there was nothing wrong with it. Lorraine breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, nothing happened."

"Really...really?"

Hearing what Lorraine said, Xue Ni still felt that her tongue was very awkward.

"It should be fine in a while."

If it were elsewhere, Lorraine could still blow air to help Xueni relieve the pain, but with this tongue, he really had no choice.

Chapter 13

The last day

"Today seems to be the last day." Looking at Xue Ni who was busy in front of her eyes, Lorraine said.

It's just that compared to Lorraine's feeling of relief, Xue Ni is not happy.

"Is that why you don't like me taking care of you alone?" Xue Ni stopped what she was doing, stood with her hips crossed and looked at Lorraine.

There is an illusion in my heart that I should be praised, but I am inexplicably criticized.

"It doesn't seem to be a question of whether you like it or not." Lorraine turned his face sideways.

But it was also because Lorraine turned his face away and didn't dare to look directly at him, so Xue Ni stepped forward and pressed his hands on his cheeks, "Say it!"

It seemed that every time Lorraine wanted to hide something or avoid a certain issue, she would choose to turn her face away like this.

Seeing this, Lorraine raised her hand, revealing her wrist that was already restricted within a certain range. "Even if you like it, no one wants to carry this thing with you all day long."

Even some special groups do not bring this with them when they eat.

But now Lorraine has to bring this thing even when eating.

"Then what can I do?" Xueni said, "If it was a normal time, even if I didn't rely on you subconsciously, you would come to help me, but these three days are obviously for me to take care of you!"

Saying that, Xue Ni stomped her feet a little dissatisfied, as if she was a little bit unwilling.

Looking back, I said I wanted to take care of Lorraine, but yesterday's situation turned into Lorraine taking care of me again.

Just wait until you realize it, it is already today.

Seeing that there was only one day left, the only way Xueni could think of was to restrain Lorraine's hands again.

"But there is no other way," Lorraine said.

Xueni thought for a moment, took out the piece of paper from her body, and said, "How about? Extend it a little bit?"

Lorraine squinted her eyes and leaned back, shaking her head, "No."

Not to mention the extension, if he knew Xue Ni would do this from the beginning, he would not agree to it no matter what.

"Well..." Xue Ni just wanted to act coquettishly. Although this kind of behavior is rarely used by herself, it still works a few times.

It's just that Lorraine looked away, and looked at the cooking stuff not far away, and the stuff inside was already boiling and about to jump out of the pot, like a fish trying to break free from a fishing net.

"If you don't care about that anymore, we'll have to eat something else later." Lorraine reminded.

At this time, Xue Ni also remembered what was in the pot, and hurriedly ran to the back.

Seeing Xue Ni suddenly become flustered, Lorraine seemed a little helpless.

This is what I am worried about. I say I have to take care of myself, but on some things, I still have to pay attention to myself.

But in this situation, I can't stretch my arms and legs.

After lunch, Lorraine went to the room to read as usual. In the situation like yesterday, at least Lorraine no longer wants to go out today.

Fortunately, after yesterday, neither of them caught a cold and fell ill, but if it happened again, it would be uncertain.

After Xueni finished her work, she leaned on Lorraine's side to help him flip through the book just like last time.

Just when Xueni was about to turn to the next page, Lorraine looked at Xueni and asked, "If I want to learn magic now, can I still learn it?"

Xueni looked at Lorraine with a puzzled face, "Do you mean learning from scratch?"

"Ah."

"Don't you know high-level magic?"

Before Lorraine could answer, Xueni thought of something and asked quickly, "Did you feel any discomfort after you came back last time? Where?"

All the nobles in the capital know that Lorraine knows high-level magic, and Xueni has also seen it with his own eyes.

Now that Lorraine suddenly asks like this, it is inevitable that people will think of something bad and make Xueni worry.

"No, I'm fine." Lorraine just asked casually, but she didn't expect Xueni to be so excited.

Lorraine thought for a while, and reluctantly gave a reason, "I've said it, it's if."

"What if?" Xue Ni looked at Lorraine's face, and after confirming that there was no clue, said, "It is possible, but it may be more difficult. After all, many people start learning about magic from a very young age. "

Even Xueni started learning at a very young age, and she can barely use intermediate magic until now.

This is why Lorraine attracts so much attention when she performs high-level magic.

Of course, it is not ruled out that some people have no interest when they are young and wait until they grow up to start learning, but this is a minority.

"Oh, so it's like this." Lorraine scratched his head in embarrassment, only then did he realize that he asked a more common sense question.

Xue Ni stared at Lorraine, still a little suspicious.

But when I think about it, Lorraine often seems to have no understanding of some things that should be known.

Such as dancing and bow and arrow.

Even though Xueni is a noble, she has some skills, but as a royal family, she has never been in contact with Lorraine, so Xueni can only attribute Lorraine's problem to this situation, and it's not surprising.

"It's okay, even if you really don't know anything, I will protect you." Xue Ni approached Lorraine, put her cheek on Lorraine's face, feeling his body temperature.

Lorraine didn't answer, but just looked at his wrist.

If there is no danger, then what should be worried is whether Xue Ni will be overprotective.

Afraid that Xueni would have some strange thoughts, Lorraine did not continue to ask and could only continue reading.

It seems that because of the high-level magic, if I really want to learn magic in the future, I guess I have to rely on myself.

Or find a more reasonable reason and let the matter go.

This time, before looking at it for a while, a slight gasp came from Lorraine's ears.

Turning her head to look, Xueni's eyelids were already trembling, but she insisted not to close them.

These three days should be quite happy for Xueni, but she is also starting to feel tired physically. After all, Xueni is doing many things in the mansion.

"Take a rest first." Lorraine said in a low voice.

"But......"

Thinking that there is still half a day left, Xue Ni still wants to do something for Lorraine.

"There's nothing more to do now."

Lorraine looked out the window, and the sun was shining in through the window. The sunshine after the rain made people feel a little more comfortable than usual.

"When it's later, I'll just wake you up."

"Then you must remember to wake me up."

"Hmm. Go to sleep."

After getting Lorraine's answer, Xue Ni relaxed a little, and fell asleep tiredly.

Chapter 14

Got the key

Xue Ni fell asleep leaning on Lorraine's shoulder.

From the look of her, it seemed that she really only planned to take a short nap, but as she fell into deeper and deeper sleep, Lorraine could hear her murmuring in her ears.

"This guy, he doesn't even know he's so tired."

In the past few days, Xue Ni has basically woken up very early. It is estimated that she has never woken up so early before.

After preparing breakfast, he would start to tidy up Lorraine's clothes or do some things that the maids usually do, and only stop a little while reading a book with himself.

Even she didn't know that she was tired now.

Xue Ni is also a noble lady. Even if she thinks these things are simple, doing it herself is another matter.

"Ok?"

Lorraine kept her body still and turned her head slightly, seeing the key that Xueni had placed in her collar slipping out.

After looking at the restraints on the wrists that were still not untied, Lorraine whispered, "I shouldn't be angry."

After saying that, he looked at Xueni again to confirm that she was asleep.

Anyway, today is the last day, and Xueni said before that as long as he dares to take this key, he can unlock it.

Now seems like an opportunity.

Although it doesn't feel good to be sneaky like this.

Lorraine moved her arms carefully, stretched her hands to the collar of Xue Ni's clothes, and gently held the key.

As soon as he took the key, he felt the warmth of being wrapped by Xue Ni's body just now.

Lorraine's movements were very gentle, and it took a while before he cut off the rope tied to the key.

It is basically impossible to take the key down with a rope now.

Even so, the back of Lorraine's hand still touched Xueni's chest.

As if feeling something, Xue Ni's whole body trembled, but then returned to calm.
