Transmigrated as the Villainess, Troubled by the Cuteness!-Chapter 188 - 152: Just a Younger Brother_3

Shen Jingxian inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief. She thought to herself, how could Fu Xuan, being so young, suffer from such severe hair loss? It turns out she pulled the wrong hair. Well, that’s a relief.

So Shen Jingxian took the hair from Fu Xuan’s head and returned it to its owner, even retrieving a strand that had fallen on the ground.

She sincerely apologized to the gentleman who had innocently lost his hair to her, but he hurried off.

Shen Jingxian understood, for if she had encountered such a situation, she’d want to leave immediately too.

Looking at Shen Jingxian’s somewhat evasive eyes, Fu Xuan suddenly felt a lightness in his chest that had been heavy just moments before.

My sister always seems to be that carefree, never changing.

"Sister, but I’m not a child anymore."

Shen Jingxian thought for a moment, then confidently said, "You’ll forever be a child in my heart. Clearly, you call me sister, yet you help me so much more."

After a pause, Shen Jingxian continued, "As long as I’m here, I will always... protect you like a brother."

"Brother..." Fu Xuan murmured those two words, lost in thought.

Shen Jingxian wanted to pat his shoulder, but remembering the hair she pulled earlier, she grew anxious and withdrew her hand, "Hmm, brother, do you want some Jade?"

Jade is the modern colloquial term for juice; it comes in many flavors.

Perhaps because there were many people around, Shen Jingxian saw a small stall selling it not far away.

Back then, there were no disposable cups, only ceramic ones, which were costly to produce, making the juice expensive, typically bought by affluent families.

Fu Xuan shook his head, not letting Shen Jingxian change the topic, instead asking, "Can it only be brother?"

Shen Jingxian’s expression suddenly became wary, recalling their previous conversation, she realized, "You want to be a Prince? It’s not impossible, you did make great contributions this time, and I’ll ask father to make you..."

Fu Xuan suddenly reached out to cover Shen Jingxian’s mouth. There was a veil between them, so his hand didn’t directly touch her, nor did he apply much force, but Shen Jingxian seemed to freeze, her voice coming to an abrupt halt.

"Sister, you know what I mean."

Fu Xuan’s voice was very pleasant to hear, even though he should be in his voice-breaking stage, it didn’t sound strange like other youngsters. It carried a youthful naïveté, yet the slightly husky tone was incredibly captivating.

Shen Jingxian habitually retreated tactically, not joking around this time, but clearly reaffirming their relationship, "Fu Xuan, you’ll always be my brother."

Fu Xuan: "Only brother?"

"If you want to be the elder brother, it’s not impossible."

Fu Xuan’s previously budding disappointment was dispersed by Shen Jingxian’s words, and he smiled wryly, "Then I’ll call you sister from now on?"

Shen Jingxian nodded, "That’s doable too. Brother Fu Xuan, what would you like to drink?"

Upon hearing Shen Jingxian’s address, Fu Xuan knew she wasn’t sincerely calling him brother, so he willingly reverted to the original address, "What does sister want to drink, I’ll buy it for you."

The two headed to the stall, while a pair of eyes from nearby took in this scene completely.

"Pavilion Master, do you want me to..." The speaker had a gentle appearance, but his words were anything but gentle. He was somewhat bald, and upon closer look, one could see he was holding a tuft of hair in his hand.

Wen Ranchen glanced at the man without responding, causing the man to feel awkward and quietly retrieve more hair.

Once the surroundings were quiet again, Wen Ranchen turned his attention back to that spot. Shen Jingxian and Fu Xuan had already bought Jade. Since she wore a veil, she had to lift it slightly to sip.

Wen Ranchen couldn’t see her expression, but he felt Shen Jingxian must be happy.

Given the Little Princess’s delicate temperament, had she been unhappy, she would have left on the spot.

The two lingered a while longer, without any intimate gestures, seemingly just enjoying the scenery for a while, then leaving.

Wen Ranchen emerged from his hiding place and approached the stall, asking, "What did the young lady buy just now?"

As soon as Wen Ranchen spoke, the stall owner took out a cup of Jade from beneath the stall and smiled, "Are you Young Master Wen?"

"Yes."

"This is what the young lady bought earlier. She said if a young master with the surname Wen wanted the same Jade as her, to give this cup to him."
