The sickly boss always wants to get close to her

Chu Bainiao dragged him to the bed, then lay down, closed his eyes and practiced the Heart Sutra.

When Cinderella woke up and opened her eyes, she saw Chu Bainiao's profile.

I didn't know when I fell asleep on the bed and even held her in my arms.

Although the girl in his arms felt warm, he immediately stretched out his fingers to feel her breath.

Chu Bainiao opened his eyes woodenly and glanced at him, "What are you doing?"

Cinderella quickly withdrew her hand as if she was scalded, lowered her head and buried it in her arms, "No, I didn't do anything..."

Chu Bainiao turned over and hugged him, kissing his face again, "I'm really fine, okay, it's time to get up."

Cinderella responded with a red face, and sat up stupidly, looking extremely well-behaved.

But in the next second, he embraced her from the middle of the bed to the edge of the bed.

He naturally opened the wardrobe and asked, "Which one do you want to wear today, sister?"

Although he looked normal, Chu Bainiao always felt that he was a little nervous.

So after just a moment's pause, she acquiesced to the fact that the other party wanted to help her put on clothes.

"I want the blue and black one."

Cinderella took out the skirt and took out other clothes from another closet.

His many years of experience in women's clothing made him adept at changing Chu Bainiao's clothes.

He quickly put on her clothes and shoes, then picked her up and wanted to take her out.

"Are you serious?" Chu Bai Niao grabbed his ear, "What do you think about yourself now? How are you going to explain this to Anastasia and Dusula?"

Even if everyone in the castle is his, he can't just walk beside her openly like this!

Cinderella put her down with grievance, "Sister, you haven't eaten yet. Can you walk? The doctor said yesterday that you are short of energy and blood."

"Sister, can't you say that you found me--" He subconsciously wanted to say something like "gigolo" to stay by her side, but when he thought of last night, he closed his mouth.

He carried Chu Bainiao to the door and watched her open the door and walk out with concern.

It was eleven twenty-three, just in time for dinner, and she walked into the restaurant, where Anastasia and Dusula quickly came to greet her.

"Mommy, why did you come out? Are you feeling better?" Anastasia looked at Chu Bainiao worriedly.

Dusula reached out and touched her forehead. "The housekeeper said you had a high fever yesterday. Mommy, I'm sorry that my sister and I didn't come to accompany you yesterday."

Chu Bainiao thought, it’s a good thing you two didn’t come to accompany me, otherwise the scene would be even more chaotic.

She followed the housekeeper's excuse and continued, "It's fine now. Once the fever is gone, everything will be fine. Don't worry or blame yourself. Am I fine?"

The two children lowered their heads in guilt, thinking that they must pay more attention to their mom in the future! As daughters, they were really negligent!

Before dinner, the housekeeper brought a bowl of black medicine, "Miss Chu, it's time to take the medicine. This medicine needs to be taken before dinner."

Chu Bainiao drank the medicine in one gulp. In the afternoon, the two children went to class in a depressed mood, and Chu Bainiao sat alone in the greenhouse reading a book.

Cinderella appeared beside her silently, "Are you feeling better, sister?"

He observed her expression carefully, and when he saw that her face had regained some color, he finally felt a little better.

Chu Bainiao looked up and said, "Much better."

Anyway, the other party won’t believe you even if you say you’re fine.

"Can I sit next to you?" Cinderella asked.

Chu Bainiao didn't know how to enlighten him, so he could only nod.

Cinderella sat down beside her and closed her eyes quietly. After about an hour, he stood up and said, "Sister, I'm going to get busy."

Chu Bainiao had a complicated expression, "Go ahead, be careful."

The other party hummed and left the greenhouse.

After dinner in the evening, the housekeeper said, "Ms. Chu, and Miss Anastasa Dusula, I must remind you that it is best not to go out recently."

"The leader of the rebel army has officially declared war on the royal city and threatened to assassinate the prince at the ball where he will choose his princess in six days."

The housekeeper looked worried. "I don't know if the rebels have sneaked into the royal city. The whole city is on alert now, and the royal guards are patrolling the city non-stop."

Anastasha exclaimed, "Really?"

The butler nodded, "Of course it's true. Miss Anastasia can also send someone to the royal city to get some information."

"But please rest assured, the guards left by the Duke will protect the ladies. The castle is very safe."

Of course the castle is safe. After all, it is the rebels' base camp, and the entire castle is filled with rebels.

Unlike Anastasia's fear, Dusula seemed much calmer. After all, her father was the captain of the royal guard.

She looked at Chu Bainiao, "Mommy, are we still going to the prince's ball?"

"Participate," Chu Bainiao said without hesitation, "The rebels have openly called on the royal family, and the royal family must agree. If the royal family does not agree, the people will be disappointed in the royal family."

"The prince's ball will be held as usual. We must go at this time. If we don't go, it will be a public slap in the face of the royal family."

The rebels only threatened to assassinate the prince, but did not say they would attack the city. As long as they did not attack the city, the royal city would be under the control of the royal family.

Since the senior brother is a member of the rebel army, the rebel army will definitely succeed. If they slap the royal family in the face, they might as well become desperate and take action against them.

Dusula said regretfully, "It's a pity that weapons are not allowed at the dance."

Chu Bainiao patted her hands and said, "Don't worry, I will protect you."

Anastasha leaned closer, "My sister and I will protect Mommy, too."

In the next few days, Chu Bainiao did not see Cinderella again. During that time, she asked the housekeeper where Cinderella was, but the housekeeper just said that he was busy with his own affairs.

On the day of the ball, Anastasia and Dusula put on the most gorgeous dresses and wore the most expensive jewelry.

Although they felt that the prince was not interested in them, they had to dress up and attend the banquet out of respect for the royal family.

Chu Bainiao also changed into a purple dress, the wide petticoat inside made the hem of her skirt look fluffy and gorgeous.

Because the bustle was too big, the three of them took two carriages to the royal ballroom.

There were countless carriages parked outside the huge castle. Chu Bainiao and her companions arrived a little late, so the carriage had to stop at the end. The three of them changed to the royal carriage and went to the ballroom.

After getting off the bus, the last ray of sunlight in the sky disappeared.

The ballroom has a very high dome, with exquisite reliefs engraved from top to bottom. Further down, there is a candlestick every two steps, and burgundy silk curtains are placed beside the huge floor-to-ceiling windows.

There are valuable oil paintings placed between the curtains.

There were already a lot of people in the ballroom, and almost all the noble girls from all over the country gathered here.

At a glance, it was all white, and skirts of various colors were swaggering and eye-catching. Chu Bainiao walked to the corner of the dance hall and chose a position that was neither far away from the crowd nor joining the crowd.
