Transmigrated As My Former Uncle’s Sweetheart

>

Yaoyao reluctantly gave up on the idea as she did not want to cause trouble for him.

After ambling several times around the hall, she sat down again at the table and started shelling a handful of sunflower seeds.
However, instead of eating them this time, she placed them one by one on a plate while counting to herself.

However, Beitang You was still not back yet even when she had shelled a whole plate of seeds.
Tired, she started nodding off, and in the end, she fell asleep with her head on the table as drowsiness overtook her.

Zhang Yu fetched a cloak and was about to drape it over her when he heard the sound of hooves outside.

Soon, Beitang You strode in with Chen Jin and several other guards, thinly shrouded in dew.

“Master, you’re finally back.” Zhang Yu greeted him.

Zhang Yu followed his gaze.
Only then did he remember, and he quickly smiled and explained, “The Princess refused to go to bed because you weren’t back yet.
She waited a long time for you but fell asleep in the end.”

After listening to him quietly, Beitang You sauntered over to Yaoyao.

As he gazed at the girl sleeping with her head on the table, warmth filled his heart.

The thought that a girl was waiting late at night for him to return made his heart melt.

He stood by her for a moment, his dark eyes glinting with a hint of a smile when he saw the pile of shells next to her hands and the plump white seeds on the plate.

She must have spent a long time shelling all these sunflower seeds.

He could picture her sitting there alone, shelling sunflower seeds while waiting for him to return.

His heart brimmed with contentment.

Although this girl was always talking smack to him, she would instinctively worry about him.

Perhaps even she was not aware of this.

Seeing her, Beitang You felt as if all his exhaustion was gone.

He bent over and scooped her into his arms.
