As night falls, the moonlight slides down to the treetops in a blur, giving off a faint brilliance, as if covered with a dreamy silver-white veil.

In the study room of the Prince Consort's Mansion, candlelight shines in the room, giving the whole room a warm yellow glow, bright and eye-catching. Xingyuan paced back and forth, thinking about the next matter of refining the elixir. Suddenly, a breeze blew outside the window, and the candlelight began to sway gently again, making the room dim and bright.

Xingyuan, who was still thinking a moment ago, suddenly became alert.

Because she felt a movement from outside the window.

Full of vigilance, she walked to the window. Her bright eyes glanced outward involuntarily.

In front of her, she saw nothing but the trees swaying under the bright moonlight.

Is it my own illusion? Xingyuan's eyes flashed, his eyebrows slightly raised, and he said,"It's already getting so late, it's time for me to rest."

Xingyuan murmured to himself, with a hint of tiredness in his voice.

She came to the candlelight and gently blew out the flame, and the study fell into darkness.

Soon after, a regular breathing sound came from the study.

At this time, through the faint moonlight, you can see a small shadow, like a clever kitten, rushing in silently from outside the window.

Not far away, on the side of the screen, Xingyuan's eyes were shining with sharp light, silently watching everything around him.

The little shadow was very light, as if it were in a deserted place, and at the same time it was very alert. After entering the house, it didn't rush to take action immediately.

Instead, he squatted down, first looked around, and then looked at the direction of the bed.

He raised his hand a little, and a small dark red fly flew silently towards the curtain.

Not bad, and a little clever.

The small movements of the little shadow were all visible, and Xingyuan, who was hiding in the dark, pursed his lips and smiled. When the fly disappeared between the curtains, the little shadow immediately realized something was wrong.

I just stood up and wanted to escape from the window, but I was stunned and looked in the direction of the window. Unexpectedly, I saw a tall figure standing there.

"Chichi.…"

The bright candlelight lit up, and the warm yellow candlelight gathered. Only then did Xingyuan see clearly the face of the little panicked shadow shrouded in the light.

It was a little girl, about eight or nine years old, with finely embroidered birds on the edge of her skirt, an embroidered satin cover, a knee-length pleated skirt, and a finely inlaid lace belt studded with silver, which shimmered and fluttered. Exquisite and bright.

A delicate and fair face, curved light eyebrows, a small nose, a pair of eyes as bright as a clear spring, turning with water and spirit, and a lavender bow tied with a ribbon on the delicate bun, which is indescribable. petite and cute

"ah!"

The candlelight in the room suddenly became brighter, making the little girl unable to hide. She couldn't help but screamed in surprise.

Looking at Xingyuan in front of her, blocking her way out, she couldn't help but staggered back a few steps. , her panicked eyes scanned the surroundings, trying to find another way out

"Little girl, what are you doing in my room at night?" Staring closely at the little girl who broke into the study, Xingyuan was a little shocked, but looking at the little girl, a smile appeared in his eyes and he asked softly.

After hearing Xingyuan's question, the little girl stood still. , there is less panic on her little face. Under her slightly upturned eyelashes, her eyes flicker, like the bright dewdrops on the lotus leaf, rolling around.

"I...I came here to play."

A clear and childish voice paused for a moment, and then answered Xingyuan's question in a tone that seemed to be very"innocent". Xingyuan was stunned for a moment. She never thought that this little guy would answer like this to fool him. Does she think of herself as a three-year-old child?

This little guy sneaks into her study at night, and he must have some purpose.

Before she understands it, she will not let this little guy go easily, even if the other party still just a child

"Little girl, this is not a place for you to play casually. Xingyuan said with a slight smile.

"Huh, how stingy, since I can't play, then I'm leaving."The little girl turned up her little nose and snorted, as if she was really dissatisfied, and walked towards the door.

Under such circumstances, this little guy could still pretend to be unobtrusive, which made Xingyuan I felt that I had really met a little opponent.

Although the opponent was a child, Xingyuan was not careless at all. She was ready to catch the opponent at any time. Don't look at the little girl in front of you walking towards the door minding her own business, but she has a pair of watery eyes. , and glanced secretly at the window from time to time, with a vague look on guard.

And this little cunning could not be hidden from Xingyuan's eyes. Xingyuan knew that this little guy must have expected that he would not let her go. , will definitely take action, and she will find the right opportunity to escape when she takes action.

Then let's see what methods this little guy has. She doesn't believe that the other person is just an ordinary child.

"OK! You, a thief who came to steal things, still want to escape?"Xingyuan immediately took a few steps forward, stretched out his hand to block the little girl's retreat, and shouted deliberately

"I...I'm not a thief, you are the thief. I just want to get my Gu worm back."

Seeing that the way back was blocked, the little girl flashed and at the same time made a childish voice and defended angrily.

Gu worm? These two words made Xingyuan's heart move, and his shining eyes narrowed slightly.
