Chapter 200 Irritability
Chapter 200 Irritability
"Who is it?" Xiao Guoer's voice was very ferocious, and she shouted angrily at the annoying uninvited guest outside the door.
She exuded the irritable aura of "I'm very annoyed now, and no one is allowed to come and kill me."
Just as she was about to burst into a curse, an unexpected voice came from outside the door. The voice was calm and low, and instantly suppressed Xiao Guoer's anger.
"This king has something to ask you."
Xiao Guoer was stunned at first, then slowly climbed up from the bed.
Although she was still unhappy with the hateful Eighth Prince for disturbing her peace, she did not dare to say it out loud.
Xiao Guoer got out of bed reluctantly and hesitantly. When she came back last night, she fell directly on the bed. Her clothes were still neatly on her body. She walked directly to the door, not realizing that her little face was already covered with tear marks. She looked like a little cat, extremely miserable.
She opened the door, with drooped shoulders and a lifeless look, and lazily bowed to the person standing at the door, "Greetings, Your Majesty."
Zhao Yunrong looked at her with disheveled hair and a messy face as she came to open the door for him, and frowned, "You haven't looked in the mirror yet, have you?"
Xiao Guoer blinked blankly, not understanding what was going on. Her little head was confused by his question, and she asked back in a daze, "Huh?"
Is this Eighth Prince seriously ill? He knocked on her door just to ask her if she looked in the mirror?
Zhao Yunrong sighed, pushed her shoulders and turned back to the room, saying helplessly, "I will find a maid to bring you some water. Wash up first and then come to see me."
Xiao Guoer followed his force and returned to the room. She curled her lips. Was he disgusted by her slovenliness? Huh, a Virgo, right? It was fine if he was a germaphobe, but why did he care about her? What did it have to do with him whether she was clean or not? If he didn't like it, he could just ignore it! It was so annoying! He was just a psychopath!
Given Xiao Guoer's terrible mood and state at the moment, if a dog passed by her, she would probably be scolded for no reason, not to mention the Eighth Prince who woke her up and was picky about her.
Xiao Guoer rolled her eyes and walked to the bronze mirror angrily. She wanted to see how dirty her face was to make the Eighth Prince despise her so much.
Then she was stunned. On the little face in the bronze mirror, there were tear marks left by the tears, and the bean flour covering the face was mushed into patches and patches. The eyes were swollen like walnuts. It was simply... horrible!
Is this really her face?!
She even opened the door and met people with this face?!
Xiao Guoer covered her face with her hands and groaned in pain. She was too embarrassed to see anyone!
It was all Tang Jingchen's fault! If it weren't for him, she wouldn't have cried like this! She wouldn't have been so confused that she didn't even realize her makeup was smudged!
When she thought of Tang Jingchen, Xiao Guoer's strength disappeared at once. She slumped down in the chair, her mind filled with the painful memories of last night. How could she have the mood to care whether she met people with a horrible face?
An uncontrollable sourness suddenly rose up at the tip of her nose and in her eye sockets, and a dull pain surged up in her chest.
But before the dull pain spread, the voice of a little maid came from the door again, "Master Xiao Guoer, I'm here to bring you some clean water."
Xiao Guoer sniffed, suppressed the emotions that had not yet raged, sat with her back to the door, and then said loudly, "Come in."
The maid pushed the door open and saw the young master with his back to her, pointing at a wooden rack beside him and saying, "Just put the water there."
The little maidservant did as she was told, put down the basin of water, and then retreated respectfully.
Xiao Guoer waited until the door was closed again before she stood up again.
The warm and refreshing water splashed on my face, and my sore eyes seemed to feel much better after being moisturized.
After Xiao Guoer washed her face, she skillfully put on the fake scar sticker and evenly spread powder mixed with bean flour. Her fair skin was covered up again. Only her red and swollen eyes were not as lively and cute as usual, but were filled with deep sorrow.
Xiao Guoer looked at the little face in the bronze mirror, and a hint of doubt and worry flashed through her mind belatedly.
Just now, the Eighth Prince probably didn't recognize her, right?
She looked like a ghost just now. Even if a little bit of her fair skin was exposed, it was hard to tell her true appearance.
Besides, if he really recognized him, the Eighth Prince would definitely not react in that way.
Thinking of this, Xiao Guoer felt relieved.
She took off the crooked wooden hairpin on her head and placed it on the table. Her eyes inadvertently fell on the jade hairpin that had fallen to the ground and broken into two pieces yesterday. This was a gift she once regarded as a precious gift.
She was stunned for a moment, and then let out a helpless bitter laugh.
Is this a sign from God?
Xiao Guoer felt her throat suddenly become dry and painful, and a sharp pain spread throughout her body and heart.
Although she deliberately didn't want to think about Tang Jingchen, everything around her seemed to have his shadow, and every aspect of her life had long been infiltrated by him.
Xiao Guoer suddenly felt that the room was so stuffy that she couldn't breathe. She combed and tied her hair hastily and hurried out.
She had been in a daze and sleepy all day, and she didn't realize that it was already nightfall.
She seemed to have lost all her energy and spirit all of a sudden. She didn't want to do anything or think about anything. She felt lazy and didn't want to move at all. But she always felt dizzy even when she lay down to sleep.
In short, no matter what she did, or did nothing, she felt a sense of tiredness and irritability rising from her body.
She stood quietly in front of the door, looking up at the stars hanging low in the sky, her thoughts gradually drifting away.
If only she could end this time travel and return to modern life.
As this thought came to her mind, she couldn't help but laugh at herself. Ha, there would actually be a day when she would escape from reality?
You are really a nobody to be hurt like this by a man!
Just when Xiao Guoer was spitting on herself in her heart, Shen Jing came over from the side and said, "The prince is calling you."
This time, Xiao Guoer suddenly remembered that the Eighth Prince had come to see her and asked her to go see him after washing up, but she forgot about it in a blink of an eye.
Maybe the Eighth Prince was reluctant to see her go, so he sent Shen Jing to urge her?
Xiao Guoer forced a smile and replied calmly, "I'll go now."
