Chapter 11

“You can go to His Highness’s study, but remember to behave, don’t cause any trouble,” Yuan Xiu reminded her.
“Meow” Xing Luo nodded her tiny head.
Then Yuan Xiu led the way, bringing Xing Luo to the door of Ye Lixiao’s study.
The door wasn’t fully closed, just a crack. Yuan Xiu was about to knock when Xing Luo slipped right through the gap. Being so small, it was effortless; by the time Yuan Xiu tried to stop her, it was too late.
He had already given his warnings. Whether Xing Luo could remain by His Highness’s side now depended entirely on her own fortune.
Once inside, Xing Luo realized she wasn’t alone. There was a woman, dressed in elegant clothing with a strikingly beautiful face.
The woman stood at the desk, clearly wanting to get close to Ye Lixiao, but he kept his eyes on the memorial in front of him, not even a sidelong glance for her.
After finishing one memorial, Ye Lixiao lifted his brush and wrote a few strokes. The woman seized the moment, her voice soft and gentle: “Your Highness, Yan’er will help you grind the ink”
Cheng Xinyan looked at him expectantly. She thought perhaps he would finally notice her, but.
Ye Lixiao still didn’t look at her. Instead, his gaze fell on the little kitten Xing Luo, who was slipping through the door crack and running toward him.
“Meow” Xing Luo reached his feet, standing on her hind legs, her front paws clutching the hem of his robe. Her big, glistening eyes stared unblinkingly at him, silently begging to be picked up.
With a wave of his large hand, Ye Lixiao’s demonic aura surged, and in the next moment, Xing Luo was in his palm.
After her human transformation, Ye Lixiao wouldn’t touch her, but in her kitten form, he could.
He placed her on his thigh and continued handling the memorials.
Cheng Xinyan, still standing in place, was stunned. Could His Highness really be such a gentle man. and keep a pet?
Looking at him this way, maybe Ye Lixiao wasn’t as impossible to approach as she’d imagined.
As long as she could be patient. She couldn’t rush.
Cheng Xinyan’s eyes flicked around before she spoke: “Since Your Highness is busy, Yan’er will take her leave and come at another time.”
She turned to leave,
“Bang!” A loud noise suddenly erupted from Ye Lixiao’s arms.
Cheng Xinyan instinctively looked and froze.
A breathtakingly beautiful woman, completely unclothed, was sitting in Ye Lixiao’s lap.
This beauty was Xing Luo. Just moments ago, she had felt a sudden heat surge through her body and, before she could react, transformed again.
“…” Ye Lixiao’s body stiffened slightly, frozen for a moment.
“Aha. sorry, my transformation isn’t stable yet. but anyway, it’s worth seeing, right” Xing Luo smiled awkwardly. She didn’t know whether to get down or stay, so she just sat still.
“Your-Your Highness.” Only then did Cheng Xinyan regain her voice.
Ye Lixiao actually allowed a woman to sit on his lap? He had never allowed any woman near him. Even a fearless woman trying to approach him would have been swept away hundreds of meters by a flick of his sleeve.
“Leave.” Ye Lixiao’s voice was icy and unyielding, impossible to defy.
Feeling his overwhelming presence, Cheng Xinyan instantly paled. “Yes!”
Although she desperately wanted to know who Xing Luo was, she didn’t dare stay.
She would have to find another way later.
