Rebirth of the Prime Minister's Daughter: Not to be Trifled With

Xin'er looked at the older brother-like man and said in a low voice, "Hey, why do you always call me 'little girl'? Am I that little?"

After hearing this, the man who looked like an older brother paused for a moment, then smiled slightly and said, "But you do look rather petite and delicate! I don't know what to call you."

After hearing this, Xin'er paused, looked at the older brother-like man, lowered her head shyly, and said softly, "I'm Xin'er, not some little girl! How should I address you?"

After hearing this, the man who looked like an older brother paused for a moment, then said in a low voice, "So it's Miss Xin'er. I am Chu Xuanyi."

After hearing this, Xin'er looked at Chu Xuanyi and asked in confusion, "Young Master Chu, your family gave you such a good name, so your family must be quite well-off. How did you end up in this industry?"

After hearing this, Chu Xuanyi looked at Xin'er, sighed, and said in a low voice, "Ah, Miss Xin'er, this is a long story! My family was originally a wealthy family in this area, and we were quite well-off."

“Unexpectedly, my father did such a good job in business that his competitors took notice and tried to get rid of him.”

“My father had no other choice but to pack his things and go back to his hometown. But he was targeted by bandits from the nearby mountains. Those bandits robbed my father of all his money and brutally murdered him.”

Upon hearing this, Xin'er immediately felt sorry for Chu Xuanyi and said softly, "Young Master Chu, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have brought up your sad memories!"

After hearing this, Chu Xuanyi looked at Xin'er and said with a slight smile, "Miss Xin'er, it's nothing. Thank you for listening to me!"

"This matter is not over yet. These bandits came to my house again. When they saw that my mother was pretty, they tied her up and took her to the mountain to be their wife."

"In order to rescue my mother and avenge my father, I went to join those bandits. The bandit leader saw that I was honest and law-abiding, so he passed on all his skills to me."

"Later, when the time was almost up, I planned to kill the bandit leader and leave with my mother. But on the day I was about to do it, the bandit leader discovered me and sent other bandits to surround and attack me."

"My mother died in front of that bandit leader to protect me. That's how I managed to escape."

Chu Xuanyi paused for a moment, then said, "Later, I also became one of those bandits, robbing and plundering. When I had money, I used it to recruit soldiers and expand my force."

"When the time was right, I led my men to storm the bandit headquarters on the mountain and wiped out all the bandits. I cried in front of my father and mother's graves and said, 'Father and Mother, I have finally avenged you. Rest in peace!' Just when I wanted to retire, my brothers were unwilling, so I never was able to retire."

Upon hearing this, Xin'er was surprised to learn that Chu Xuanyi's background was so tragic. She didn't know what else to say and simply looked at Chu Xuanyi quietly.

At this moment, Chu Xuanyi looked at Xin'er and asked softly, "Hey, Miss Xin'er, I've been talking to you about this, and I forgot to ask if you want to change your clothes?"

After hearing this, Xin'er paused, looked at Chu Xuanyi, and said in a low voice, "Young Master Chu, please don't change your clothes. Just let me leave in peace!"

"Miss Xin'er, why can't you understand? Besides, I can't just watch you jump down and die in front of me, can I? I can't do that!" Chu Xuanyi said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Xin'er said in a low voice, "Young Master Chu, my body is no longer clean, and I have no face to live anymore! But I still want to thank you for saving my life! I've thought it through now, and I want to find a place where no one knows me to start over! Please wait a moment, I need to go back and change my clothes!"

After listening, Chu Xuanyi paused for a moment, then said in a low voice, "Miss Xin'er, it's good that you've come to your senses! Since you've decided to start over, why go back to get your old clothes? We can just dry them here! Besides, there are people in there who want you dead, so why would you go back?"

After hearing this, Xin'er paused, looked at Chu Xuanyi, and nodded without saying anything.

Seeing this, Chu Xuanyi led Xin'er to a cave. Chu Xuanyi started a fire, intending to use it to dry the clothes.

Seeing this, Xin'er glanced at Chu Xuanyi and said in a low voice, "Young Master Chu, it's not appropriate for us, a man and a woman, to be alone together like this!"

After hearing this, Chu Xuanyi paused, looked at Xin'er, and said softly, "Miss Xin'er, you go first! I'll go to the cave entrance and keep watch, I promise I won't peek at you changing clothes!"

After Chu Xuanyi finished speaking, he slowly walked towards the cave entrance. Seeing this, Xin'er quickly took off her clothes and put them on the fire to dry.

Soon the clothes were dry, and Xin'er quickly put them on. Then, she slowly walked to the cave entrance to call Chu Xuanyi, but Chu Xuanyi was already asleep, his face looking a little flushed.

Seeing this, Xin'er touched Chu Xuanyi's forehead and found that he had a fever. It took Xin'er a lot of effort to help him into the cave.

She took off his wet clothes, dried them, and then put them back on him. Thanks to Xin'er's attentive care throughout the night, Chu Xuanyi's fever had successfully subsided.

The next morning, Chu Xuanyi slowly opened his eyes and saw Xin'er sleeping next to him. He gently touched her head, but this startled her awake.

Xin'er looked at Chu Xuanyi in a daze and found that he had recovered, and immediately showed a relieved smile.

Chu Xuanyi looked at Xin'er and said softly, "Miss Xin'er, thank you! I don't know what would have happened without you."

After hearing this, Xin'er paused, looked at Chu Xuanyi, and said with a slight smile, "Young Master Chu, you are like this because you saved Xin'er. So it is only right that I take care of you, you don't need to thank me!"

After hearing this, Chu Xuanyi asked in a low voice, "Miss Xin'er, what are your plans?"

After hearing this, Xin'er paused, looked at Chu Xuanyi, and said softly, "Young Master Chu, the world is so vast, there will always be a place for me! But I don't know where to go right now."

After hearing this, Chu Xuanyi paused, looked at Xin'er, and said in a low voice, "Miss Xin'er, would you like to consider coming with me? I will protect you and won't let you get hurt!"

Upon hearing this, Xin'er lowered her head shyly, her face flushing. Then, she looked at Chu Xuanyi and whispered, "But, Young Master Chu, Xin'er's body is no longer pure! I..."

Before Xin'er could finish speaking, Chu Xuanyi interrupted, "Miss Xin'er, I fell in love with you the moment I saw you! It's all my fault for not disciplining my subordinates properly. I'm so sorry!"

“Xin’er, I’ve never thought you were unclean. In my heart, you’ll always be that innocent, kind little girl who needs to be protected!”

After hearing this, Xin'er nodded to Chu Xuanyi and followed him away.
