The cruel little princess

With war approaching, Shen Duanfang was worried about his daughter being in danger in the military camp. Furthermore, when his daughter and Prince Jin disappeared, he had considered sending her back to the capital, and this thought was now even more resolute. He planned to dispatch fifty elite soldiers from his personal guard to escort his daughter back to the capital overnight.

Unexpectedly, when he went to see his daughter in the afternoon and told her to pack her bags and leave for Beijing tonight, his daughter righteously refused.

Shen Youyou looked into her old father's worried eyes, her tone particularly sincere: "Dad, I know you are thinking about me, but please forgive me for being unfilial. I'm sorry that I can't obey your order. No matter whether there is danger tomorrow or not, I will not leave the barracks. Emotionally, Dad has to go to the battlefield tomorrow, how can I escape overnight? Logically, the rescue team will be put into use for the first time tomorrow. As the person who knows the operation of the rescue team best, if I am not in the rear to command at this time and disappear instead, what do you want others to think of us father and daughter? So no matter what, I will never leave the barracks!" She said sincerely and emotionally.

Shen Duanfang was anxious and angry when he heard this. He raised his voice and said, "But things change rapidly on the battlefield. Your father is worried about your safety in the rear!"

"Does that mean Daddy doesn't have confidence in himself? Does he think we will retreat without a fight?" Shen Youyou asked back.

"Absolutely impossible! Even though my Shen family is small in number, we are definitely not the kind of people who are afraid of death! We would rather die standing than live on our knees!" Shen Duanfang said righteously.

"That's it. Whether or not I can stay safely in the military camp depends entirely on my father's performance in the battle tomorrow. Besides, even if I have arrived in the capital safely now, if the border is lost and the Qinglong Kingdom marches straight into the capital, what good will I get? It's just a matter of changing the place and the way I die." Shen Youyou patiently explained to her father.

Hearing this, Shen Duanfang's heart tightened. He knew that his daughter had always been smart, but he didn't expect her to be so brave and determined.

"Bah! Bah! What's with the life or death? Children should speak without restraint! Bah! Bah! Bah!" Shen Duanfang said while spitting on the ground, "Youyou, you can't just say things like life or death so casually! This is like stabbing your father in the heart! Daddy is hoping that you will live a long life with many children and grandchildren!"

Shen Youyou looked at her father's nervous expression and couldn't help but laugh: "Dad, I was just making an analogy. Don't be so nervous. However, if that day ever comes, I will never back down."

Shen Duanfang touched his daughter's head distressedly, his eyes full of love: "My dear daughter, Daddy will definitely protect you and won't let you get hurt. But if you really encounter danger, you must remember to protect yourself first, understand?"

Shen Youyou nodded, a determined light flashing in his eyes: "Don't worry, Daddy. I will take good care of myself. Moreover, I believe that Daddy will be able to lead the soldiers to victory and protect our homeland."

The father and daughter smiled at each other, each sensing the other's inner resolve and trust. He smiled innocently, "Dad understands. Since you want to stay in the barracks, then don't go to the capital for now. Don't worry, Dad will do his best to keep you safe!" He patted his chest and assured Shen Youyou. This was both a comfort to Shen Youyou and a warning to himself.

Before his daughter was not at the border, he would not have thought too much. Because he always knew in his heart that dying on the battlefield was the fate of the soldiers, and neither he nor his son would care about their own life or death. At most, he would be a brave man again in 18 years! The only worry he was worried about was his daughter. Now that his daughter is by his side, it is even easier for him to have wild thoughts. Alas, what else can he do? Just spoil his own daughter! What else can he do! But he never expected that his daughter would grow up so well in a place he couldn’t see! Thinking about how he had spent half his life in the military, he felt not only guilty towards his wife, but also guilty towards his daughter! His daughter lost her mother when she was born, and she was a little stupid living under someone else’s roof, and she lived with her own brother. He had thought of giving her more money so that the couple could love their daughter like their own child, at least to make up for her regret of not having a mother. But what was unexpected was that his brother took the money but did nothing, causing his daughter to suffer so much! I hope that in the future, my daughter can marry a good husband under my care, give birth to some lovely children, and everything will go well!

After expressing his feelings, Shen Duanfang left. After all, there were still many things waiting for him to decide in the military camp.

Before leaving, Shen Youyou brought him a lot of emergency medicines, "Although I know Daddy won't be able to use them, but these are my thoughts. Daddy, take them, and if those uncles get hurt, they can use them. I've written down the uses on them, and they are all very effective!" There were hemostatic powders, rejuvenation pills, etc., which are the most commonly used life-saving medicines on the battlefield. Shen Duanfang didn't refuse when he heard it. After all, it was a gift from his daughter, so he would just keep it with him to make his daughter feel at ease. He took it and put it in his arms. Just as Shen Duanfang left, His Royal Highness Prince Jin also arrived.

"Youyou, when I came here just now, I saw General Shen here, so I temporarily avoided him, intending to wait until he left before coming back. But I didn't expect you two to talk for so long." His Royal Highness Prince Jin half-jokingly and half-complained. "What on earth were you guys whispering about?"

Shen Youyou glanced at him. There was nothing shameful to hide in their previous conversation, so she told him simply and clearly, "My father wanted to send me back to the capital overnight, but I refused to leave the barracks. If I left, I would be considered disloyal, unrighteous, and unfilial. I can't leave for emotional or logical reasons. My father told me to be careful."

Just this one sentence successfully shut up His Royal Highness Prince Jin. Because he also wanted Shen Youyou to leave the border. But seeing her firm stance, he sent more secret guards to protect her and asked them to keep an eye on the battle situation. If the battle goes badly, they would immediately set off to send her back to the capital! Even if she didn't want to, he would knock her out and take her away from the barracks. But he didn't say this decision, and only said, "I also want to tell you this. Tomorrow I will also go to the battlefield to take charge. The battlefield changes rapidly. I am worried about your safety in the barracks. I will send more secret guards to guard near your tent. As long as you don't leave the barracks, you can move freely."

"Okay! Thank you then!" Shen Youyou stood on tiptoe, gently patted his shoulder with her tender white hands, and thanked him like a good brother.

"Youyou, I don't want to hear you say thank you. Don't ever be polite to me, and don't resist my kindness..." Prince Jin pinched her small, delicate nose helplessly. "If you really want to thank me, I hope you can find a different way..." He said, staring at her with a deep gaze, like a tiger seeing its prey.

"What method?" Shen Youyou was a little confused. "Oh, right, come with me." She turned and walked behind the screen, picking up the small medicine bottles from the low table next to her bed. "Here, I made some medicine for the wound. I gave some to my father and left some for you."

"Youyou..." His voice was low and hoarse, with a charm that seemed to tempt people to commit crimes. "I want you to thank me in another way..."

"What... um..."

Before she could finish, His Royal Highness Prince Jin directly told her with his own actions what he meant by expressing his gratitude.

He pulled her into his arms, letting her sit on his lap before leaning over and kissing her on the lips. This kiss was different from the previous light touches, but instead was filled with aggression and possessiveness. His tongue gently pried open her teeth, entwining with hers, absorbing the sweetness of her mouth.

Shen Youyou was startled by the sudden kiss, but soon became intoxicated by it. She hugged his neck tightly with both hands, responding to his passion. Their breathing gradually became rapid, and the room was filled with an ambiguous atmosphere.

It wasn't until an unknown amount of time passed that His Royal Highness Prince Jin finally released her lips. He looked at her swollen lips and her hazy eyes, his lips curling up slightly. "Are you satisfied with this way of thanking me?" he asked in a low voice.

Shen Youyou's face flushed like a ripe apple. She lowered her head shyly, not daring to look him in the eye. "You... bad guy!" she said coquettishly.

Prince Jin laughed. He held her in his arms again, gently stroking her hair. "Youyou, I love you," he said softly.

Shen Youyou's heart suddenly trembled. She raised her head and looked into his affectionate eyes, her heart filled with emotion. But the words "I like you too" seemed to be stuck in her throat, making her unable to say them. Forget it, she would talk about it later when she had the chance.

The two sat in each other's arms, enjoying the warmth and sweetness of the moment. Shen Youyou knew that the seeds of love had already sprouted in her heart, waiting to break through the ground and grow vigorously! She believed that Chu Huaijin was just like her, and even had invested more love than she did...
