Transmigrated as the Villainess, Troubled by the Cuteness!-Chapter 186 - 152: Just a Younger Brother

Shen Jingxian didn’t know where Fu Xuan planned to take her, but she always walked in front and rarely turned back to look at Fu Xuan.

As she walked, she remembered that she would always cause a commotion whenever she went out, so she prepared to take out a veil to wear.

She had been practicing embroidery diligently these days, and she could finally stitch beautiful shapes. She embroidered a piece of black cloth for her father, a red one for her mother, and then a veil for herself. Perfect!

However, when Shen Jingxian took it out, she felt that something was amiss.

Were the flowers she embroidered before really this pretty?

Never mind, let’s put it on first.

Fu Xuan had been following behind Shen Jingxian all along, and after enduring for so long, he finally couldn’t resist and reached out to tug Shen Jingxian’s sleeve, successfully making her turn her head.

Shen Jingxian: ?

Shen Jingxian hadn’t realized the seriousness of the situation yet, and there was even a bit of displeasure in her eyes: Buddy, you’re interrupting me from admiring beauties.

It was mid-summer, and Yunyi Country didn’t impose too many restrictions on women, so there were many beautiful ladies dressed lightly on the streets.

Of course, these light outfits were nothing compared to modern standards, just slightly revealing ankles, lotus arms, and shoulders. But it was this sense of tantalizing concealment that was even more captivating!

There’s an old saying about how to make a naked body more alluring, and that’s by wearing socks. That’s the essence of it.

As Shen Jing thought about it, she suddenly realized, damn, why did she turn yellow!

Fu Xuan, seeing Shen Jingxian looking over but still not seeing him in her eyes, panicked a bit. He didn’t even have time to use his clever little brain to think about whether this was appropriate or not, and hurriedly said, "Your Highness, are you thinking of... ditching me?"

Shen Jingxian was left stunned by Fu Xuan’s sudden words, looking at Fu Xuan with innocence and alarm.

Absurd, how did Fu Xuan know she was planning to ditch him? Was she being too obvious? Hell no.

However, the word ’ditch’ was used quite subtly; she and Fu Xuan hadn’t agreed on anything, so how could that be considered ditching? At most, it was a gentle rejection.

At this moment, people around hadn’t noticed this side, at most thinking Shen Jingxian’s eyes were particularly beautiful, so they glanced this way a few more times.

Shen Jingxian took a deep breath, knowing the Empress’ behavior lately must have led to his misunderstanding, she had to clearly define her relationship with Fu Xuan.

She really couldn’t bring herself to act against a 15-year-old child.

In this world, girls mature at 15, while boys partake in crowning ceremonies at 20. Fu Xuan was younger by a few months, not even 15 yet. Feeling moved by a pretty older sister was very normal, but when she was 15... well, back then she only studied because her father wouldn’t let her date prematurely.

However! This isn’t love; this is just the ignorant excitement of youth. As an elder, she must promptly make Fu Xuan understand the difference between infatuation and love.

Shen Jingxian looked at Fu Xuan seriously and said, "Fu Xuan, you’re still young and haven’t experienced many ups and downs, so it’s easy to misread your feelings..."

"Sister, the girls who admire me can form a line from Xingyang to the Capital City. Doesn’t that count as having experienced ups and downs?"

Shen Jingxian: ...

Not sure what to say, just reward you with a big thump.

With a smack, Shen Jingxian hit Fu Xuan on the head.

Fu Xuan held his head in grievance, "Sister..."

"Calling me grandma today won’t help. Others admiring you is not something to boast about. You can reject their feelings, but you mustn’t take them lightly, or else how are you different from those libertines who use a guise of romance to engage in lewd acts?"

Fu Xuan, after hearing Shen Jingxian’s words, wasn’t angry at all. Instead, he looked at her expectantly and asked, "Then will Sister also not take anyone’s feelings lightly?"

"Of course."

"Even mine?"

"Even yours."

Upon hearing this, Fu Xuan suddenly leaned close to Shen Jingxian’s nose, locking his eyes onto hers, "Sister, I like you."

Shen Jingxian blinked, "I’ll accept if it’s akin to familial affection, but if it’s romantic, then I refuse."

Fu Xuan wasn’t bad looking, and today he was wearing an ink-colored satin robe, with exposed silver trim underneath, a jade belt around his waist, an ivory folding fan in hand, his hair tied with a vermilion hairpin, and he had a woodsy scent, different from musk, showing he dressed meticulously, exuding an innate charm with every gesture - flirtatious yet dignified.

From earlier, only a few women stole glances at him, but ever since his bold move of leaning close to Shen Jingxian’s nose, such an audacious action instantly attracted others to stop and watch.
