Indulge

After Li Xueyue finished her meal, it was time for her morning bath. Surprisingly enough, Xu Jiaqi was more patient this time.

"Hmm, nevermind," Li Xueyue suddenly said as Xu Jiaqi entered the room with the hot water. All of a sudden, she felt queasy and touched her mouth.

She blamed it on the nauseating sight of Xu Jiaqi's irritable face and presence. 

"I'd like to take a dip in the bathhouse," Li Xueyue stated. She could practically feel the irritation radiating off of Xu Jiaqi. By now, the lady-in-waiting could burn a hole through the ground.

"But, Princess, I specifically drew this water—"

Li Xueyue brushed past Xu Jiaqi. She sauntered out of the estate without another word, as maidservants hurriedly rushed after her. 

She refused to be burned by the boiling water again.
