Reborn princess: I will change my ill-fate - 188 chapter
They were pretty close and her younger self played with him. She could still remember those days, but she really didn’t know much about his life. Yeah, she do know he got no family to contact, but why? What made him to stay as a bachelor for his rest of the time.
Milo gave her forehead a light blow, ” Then shouldn’t you be obedient and can’t you just listen to an elderly request?, It’s not like you lose anything,” As if he remembered something, he rushed to ask, ” Ah!! I heard you were getting married, who was it? ” This unexpected question truly let her guard down.
Blood began to rush in reverse direction inside her body, her cheeks turning rosy. It made Milo both curious and at the same time amused. It’s rare to meet his little princess and it’s even rarest to witness her blushing. He never knew, that she was this easy to tease for.
A smile formed on her lips unknowingly, ” Well…..It’s the crown prince, ” She said, while still blushing. Aish~ only God knows how much she wanted to see him right this very moment. She began to grin like a lovesick fool now, only thinking about him.
Tsk~ tsk~ This time Milo clicked his tongue, ” Don’t tell me, you chased after him with that silly look over your face all this while, ” He scorned her, but he could see, how much love she held for that prince. It’s like, her love for him can’t be hidden within her eyes and it’s overflowing.
Aeinshia pouted, ” Why can’t I chase him though? ” She asked him back innocently.
Milo took a deep breath, as if he is taking the natural energy flowing in the cherry blossom palace.
Taking his time in enjoying the nature in front of his eyes, he continued, ” Hmm, there’s nothing wrong one chasing love, but sometimes one need to play hard to get,” He told, while looking into the sky, a look of longing came visible in his eyes, and he didn’t budge an inch while facing the sky. It’s like, he is looking for someone, who is not within his reach, someone far far away from him, someone whom he can’t touch no matter what.
” Aish~ Old man, now I should be the one to learn love tricks from you huh? Is that why you didn’t fall for any, playing hard to get someone? Wow!! Now I need to even learn one or two from someone who never ever had entered into any relationship?” She asked, unknowingly hitting a soft corner inside his heart.
However, in the end, he smiled. He might be smiling outside, but that was only limited to outside. He is masking the sadness, which totally filled inside his heart with a simple fake smile.
” Ah, and it’s not me who only chased, but he too is sincerely in love with me. Don’t you think we are a match made in heaven? ” She asked, as she once again started to grin like a fool.
Milo smiled back as he nodded his head in agreeing, ” Yeah yeah, a fool matching with an intelligent. Sure a good match made in heaven, ” He threw back and turned to observe her reaction this time. Even though she is already thirteen, and soon turns fourteen, in his eyes, she is still the young princess, whom he used to carry around the cherry blossom palace, when she was a kid. No matter what, she is still the kid he first met her.
Aeinshia threw punches over his chest, ” You are forever gramps. I am never gonna call you uncle. In what way I am a fool? You are the one fool, ” She whined and complained back.
Milo burst into a fit of laughter, ” Ok my dear little princess. It’s me who is the fool, now stop the tantrum. You are the most genius person in the seazl…. No, no in the entire world. Isn’t it right? ” He questioned back, as he grinned.
Aeinshia bit her lips, ” You are playing and tricking me with your words. Your words are not being sincere. You became more evil from last time. If you are like this, then I don’t even come to bid you bye next time, ” She said and held her arms neat her chest, as her chest puffed up in anger.
” Look look, now you can’t even take few jokes? Don’t get angry, this old man here will get you your favorite food, ” He ruffled her smooth curls, and tried to calm her like how he used to do to a child.
Aeinshia swiftly turned around, ” Are your eyes blind, I am already this old, and yet you are treating me like a kid. You are wronging me old man, ” She said, but her heart turned a little soft now. This is her usual uncle Milo, who often tries to play and tease her.
Petting her till his heart content, he only released his hand from her head, when he felt satisfied, ” I hope you both live well together. Both of you should understand each other, support each other and should care for each other. If you guys ever fought, think about why you looked after each other. If you guys felt tired of each other, then learn to love each other in a new way, but never leave the person and go ash tray, ” He advised her and sincerely hoped happiness for his little princess. She is the only person, whom he felt like his own family, so how can he not wish her good?
” Yep, ” She replied and leaned her head into his shoulder. What can she say? No more words are coming out of her mouth and she could only listen, shutting her mouth.
” Ah, I just remembered it, don’t forget to tell me if he ever made injustice towards you. I will pay the price for the tears in your eyes, in your stead against him, ” He warned, this time, his voice serious, unlike all other times. She could see, that his words are not filled with air and he know what exactly he said.
Her ears twitched listening to him, ” Aish~ being trapped in this cherry blossom palace made your mind leave into gutter. You want to fight against the crown prince, the future emperor. Don’t you know you are challenging the whole seazle empire by saying it, ” She enquired, while her eyeballs travelled side to look at him, her head still resting on his shoulder.
He didn’t give out any expression this time. Having an expressionless face, he replied back, ” Does it matter? To me he is someone who might hurt my princess. So I am only doing what is right. Don’t worry, no punk is match for me. I am sure, even that punk’s master must have learnt fighting from me. This old man still got strength to back up you. Okay? ” He reassured her and smiled back at her.
Aeinshia too returned his smile, ” I know you are very powerful. But save it for yourself and never say such words again, ” She spoke. Immediately after Aeinshia finished her stance, silence took in the place.
Both of them didn’t speak with each other for some time.
After what felt like an eternity of silence, Milo enquired, ” I expected your brother to come along with you this time. Tell him to visie next time. I would like to share few of my techniques with him, ” He asked me it to pass to Felix.
” Old man. Aren’t you being partial. Couldn’t you also let me learn your famous techniques, why only my brother? ” She asked back, and made a child like sad face.
” Oh my!! Look at this little princess here. I never knew you were this interested in martial arts and sword fighting. Looks like I guess I got no choice but to teach you but can you tell me why is this sudden change? ” He questioned her back.
Aeinshia gulped down a huge lump of saliva. What she should say? It’s because my family is at harm and I need to protect them? What a joke? Who can threaten a dukes family? That too a family, second to none after the imperial family.
