Reborn Daughter: The Young Lady Wants to Make a Trouble

“Wow, you’re really mean,” a young woman at the end of the hallway said.

Li Xueyue didn't think anyone was eavesdropping on their conversation. She left Xu Jiaqi behind, and didn't notice the woman's presence until she stepped out of the shadows.

Her eyes widened, and she realized that this woman looked exactly like Yu Zhen. In addition, this woman was more approachable and... more energetic?

Li Xueyue wondered if there was something in the water. Every woman she met was beautiful.

“Hmm…” The woman’s voice trailed off, tapping her lips.

Li Xueyue frowned and looked at it. How was it before? Is this woman an enemy or a friend?

"I like it!" the girl exclaimed. She leaped forward and grabbed Li Xueyue's hands without warning.

Li Xueyue was caught off guard. She looked at the woman warily, wondering if this lady was crazy. Why did this woman want to grab a stranger's hand?

"Wouldn't you rather fake a smile and try to wipe my hand off?" the woman wailed. "I've seen you do it before, why not now?"

Li Xueyue pursed her lips. Who is this woman? She turned her head slightly, and Yan Xi took a step forward.

Yan Xi whispered, "This is the second princess of Han, Princess Yulingluo, who is one year younger than the princess."

"You ruined our fun, Yan Xi!" Princess Yu Lingluo snorted. She folded her arms and looked at the ground with a frown, and Yan Xi bowed apologetically.

"I want you to guess who I am." Princess Yu Lingluo said. "I'm very curious about the Crown Princess, so I want her to be interested in my identity as well!"

Li Xueyue blinked. They were only one year apart in age, but Yu Lingluo acted much younger.

There is a sense of innocence, almost naivety, in Yulingluo's character. Her voice is high-pitched, but not harsh. She is almost... cute?

Seeing that things had quieted down here, Princess Yulingluo complained, "Aren't you going to say something? Many people have told me that the Crown Princess is very smart for her age... Why don't you pay attention to me?"

Li Xueyue didn't know what to say. Yu Lingluo's mood changed too quickly. Li Xueyue was unsure of how to talk to the young lady.

She had to admit that Yu Lingluo looked nothing like Yu Zhen, even though their facial features were extremely similar. Yu Lingluo's eyes were the most prominent, but full of vitality. Her nose was as pointed as Yu Zhen's, but gentle and cute.

Yu Lingluo let her emotions show...or rather, she wanted others to believe it.

Li Xueyue wondered if her lively behavior was an act or her true character.

"I have come all the way from the Queen's Palace, which is quite far from here. You should at least say hello." Yu Lingluo said with a pout.

She played with the end of her long sleeves and looked from the ground to Li Xueyue.

Li Xueyue blinked in confusion. The princess suddenly looked like a sad puppy.

"I'm just...surprised by you," Li Xueyue replied. She was startled to see Yu Lingluo trotting like an excited puppy.

"So she can talk!" Yu Lingluo chuckled. "People say my real brother[1] cherishes you very much. There are many interesting gossips about you."

Li Xueyue blinked. Gossip…? Already? Putting that aside, there were other things that stood out to her. The nickname that Yulingluo gave to Yuzhen.

"Of course, don't worry, no one dares to say bad things about you directly, Brother Zhen has already promised it!" Yu Lingluo was angry.

Li Xueyue nodded slowly. There it was again, that nickname. She knew that this young lady was by no means just a simple princess.

"Do you want to know how people evaluate you?" Yu Lingluo whispered. She deliberately lowered her voice to make the conversation more mysterious.

Li Xueyue laughed. "Of course," she said.

Yu Lingluo quickly glanced to the left, then to the right. She covered her mouth and leaned forward.

"Everyone says you're too skinny, which means my brother might interrupt you in bed and-"

"Xiao Ling!"

Yu Lingluo screamed. Her heart started beating wildly when she heard the familiar voice. Easygoing, but stern... She turned around and saw him, a soft sigh left her lips.

Hu Dengxiao walked along the corridor with a disapproving look on his face. He should have known that the loud noises came from her - the princess with too much energy in her body.

"I hope you won't cause trouble for the princess. I really know you will be angry." Hu Dengxiao cursed as soon as he arrived next to Yu Lingluo.

Seeing Li Xueyue, he bowed his head and greeted her. "Princess," he said.

"Why did you bow to her and not to me?" Yu Lingluo snorted and crossed his arms over his chest, but he pinched her right cheek. She screamed in pain and slapped his hand.

Hu Dengxiao teased, "Because of your little trouble, you didn't behave like a princess."

"I do behave like one!" Yu Lingluo yelled and angrily stomped his foot, causing him to groan.

"Brat," he complained, nudging her shoulder.

Li Xueyue's eyes widened as she watched the princess push him back. To her surprise, Hu Dengxiao stumbled. Whether it was intentional or not, she couldn't help but laugh.

This scene felt all too familiar. It warmed her heart.

"Look, the princess is laughing at you." Hu Dengxiao snorted. "If you hadn't made a fool of yourself, this wouldn't have happened."

"Or maybe she was laughing at a grown man like you for making a mistake." Yu Lingluo said.

Li Xueyue raised her eyebrows. She noticed that Hu Dengxiao behaved a little differently than usual. If she remembered correctly, he was more naive around Lu Tianbi. But maybe it was because they were friends?

In Hu Dengxiao's opinion, Princess Yu Lingluo was just an annoying sister. It was very strange... especially when Yu Lingluo looked up at him with awe.

But it was none of her business. She decided not to snoop.

"Princess, don't worry about this little ball." Hu Dengxiao said. "In fact, I was going to take you to the prince's private study."

Li Xueyue nodded slowly. What happened?

"The roundtable discussion was originally scheduled for today, but since everyone is busy, it has been postponed to next week, Princess," Hu Dengxiao explained.

Hearing this, Li Xueyue was filled with gratitude in her heart. She was not fully prepared yet. She wanted to jot down a list of ideas before meeting with the people there.

"I think the prince wants to discuss the topic of this meeting with the princess." Hu Dengxiao said. He decided to call her commander mainly because Li Xueyue was accompanied by servants and guards.

"I see," she replied.

"Maybe Yu Zhen wants to discuss the wedding details before it is finalized," said Hu Dengxiao.

He watched her eyes widen with interest. "Didn't your Highness see?" he pondered. "Many servants were busy preparing for this big day."

Li Xueyue shook her head slowly. She heard nothing.

"Well, Your Highness, that's not surprising," Hu Dengxiao shrugged. "The Crown Prince doesn't want to burden you with decision-making. All you have to do is sit back and enjoy the preparations."

He snorted, "But I'm sure he'd like to hear your opinion, too."

Li Xueyue nodded, but didn't quite understand what he meant by "preparation". She ignored it, thinking that it might be the intensive skin care she had undergone the night before she was announced as the Crown Princess.

"Or rather, my brother just wants to spend more time with her, you idiot." Yu Lingluo said.

"You idiot, who are you calling an idiot?!" Hu Dengxiao cursed, and reached out to pinch her cheek.

Yu Lingluo dodged.

Hu Dengxiao said: "Your behavior is too improper."

Yu Lingluo stuck out her tongue and crossed her arms. "So?"

Li Xueyue tilted her head slightly. For a moment, she saw the pain in Yu Lingluo's eyes. Oh dear...

Li Xueyue has some idea of ​​their dynamic, but hopes it's not true. It would be so heartbreaking if it were. Literally.
