    Ni Ruo was happy for only a moment, and then became depressed again.

    So what if it has nothing to do with it?She and Xia Houkong have also drifted apart and almost have nothing to do with each other.

    The maids were still carrying gifts into the main room one after another. Ni Ruo could not help but feel envious as she stared at the gorgeous brocade boxes.

    As expected of a royal family, he could receive so many gifts on his birthday.

    She also wanted to send a gift to Xia Houkong, but she had nothing.

    Ni Ruo looked at the maids coming in and out and thought for a moment, then suddenly got an idea and went to the dining room to quietly find Fang’er, “Fang’er, I want to ask you something…”

    ——

    “Dong dong dong——”

    During the garrison, as night fell, Ni Ruo knocked on the door of the main room of Xiahouyuan, “Sir?”

    She didn’t dare to get too close to the door for fear of hearing something heartbreaking.

    “What’s the matter?” Xia Houkong looked towards the door.

    “If Ni has something important to tell you, sir, can you… come to the garden?”

    She didn’t want to be heard by Sun Mei, so she asked him to meet in the garden.

    …again?

    Xia Houkong stared at the door hesitantly for a while, then finally put down the book and walked out.

    When he opened the door, Ni Ruo was no longer there. He must have gone to the garden to wait.

    Xia Houkong came to the garden, and Ni Ruo was standing beside the rockery in the garden, waiting for him. The moonlight reflected the water of the small lake next to it sparklingly.

    When he came to stand in front of Ni Ruo, Xia Houkong asked quietly, “Are you here to apologize again?”

    These days, he had obviously taken care of the dining room, opened a small stove for her, and ate nutritious and high-quality ingredients. He had also secretly observed the situation in the side room, and no one bullied her, but the meat on her body just didn’t grow.

    “No.” Ni Ruo shook his head and looked at he with a pair of big watery eyes, “Ni Ruo is here to celebrate your birthday.”

    It was not because of the night, Ni Ruo felt that Xia Houkong had lost some weight, and his brows seemed a little tired, but she had no time to think too much now, she just wanted to get the business done. The only update of this article is this blushing heartbeat website: books/698675Slowly holding up the plate of pastries in his hand, he lowered his head and said, “Ni Ruo knows that today is your birthday, but Ni Ruo has nothing to give to you, so she only temporarily asked a friend in the kitchen to help and made red bean cakes for you. I hope you won’t dislike it…”

    Ni Ruo spoke softer and quieter.

    I don’t know if Xia Houkong will dislike her low-end gift. After all, compared with the gifts in those brocade boxes, these red bean cakes can even be said to be poor. Only the meaning of them is pretty good. “Ni Ruo would like to use the literal meaning of the red bean cake to wish you a prosperous career, promotion and bright future.”

    “…” Xia Houkong’s eyes dimmed.

    future?

    How can he have a future as an “official” in a place like this?

    Xia Houkong lowered his eyes and looked at the plate of red bean cake that she was holding. The appearance and presentation of the cake were good, but he did not take it and only asked, “Is this the important thing you said?”

    “Actually, Ni Ruo has something to ask for.” Ni Ruo shook his head again, lowered his head and said slowly, “In the past few months, you have been protecting Ni Ruo everywhere, but Ni Ruo has failed to live up to your expectations and annoyed you, so…”

    Xia Houkong stared at her trembling hands, his expression gradually becoming colder due to her words.

    “So, sir, please… transfer Ni Ruo… to… another instructor.” Ni Ruo finished speaking with great difficulty, holding his breath nervously.

    “…”

    As soon as Ni Ruo said these words, the surroundings became completely quiet, and an invisible pressure instantly rose.

    After a long while, Xia Houkong took the pastry plate out of her hand and placed it on the lamp post beside her. He squeezed out each word through his teeth with a cold voice, “Which instructor do you want to be transferred to?”

    Ni Ruo’s empty hands had nowhere to rest, and she could only twist the hem of her training uniform at her side. She blinked helplessly several times and said with difficulty, “Ni Ruo… just follow your orders…”

    “Why do you just want to leave me from the beginning to the end?” Xia Houkong gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with anger, and his eyebrows tightened, “Isn’t it good to be my woman?!”

    Would she rather run away and be trained by another man than become his woman and escape the fate of being a sex slave?!

    Ni Ruo was stunned, looked up blankly, and said blankly, “…ah?”

    What did he just… say?

    He wants her… to be his woman?!

    “I won’t let you go!” Xia Houkong’s eyes darkened, and he hugged Ni Ruo’s soft waist tightly and pressed it close to his body. His dark eyes looked deeply into her, and his voice was low and firm, “From now on, you are my woman and you are not allowed to go anywhere!”

    As soon as the words fell, under the hazy night, under Ni Ruo’s surprised eyes, Xia Houkong kissed her lips fiercely.
