What to do if your crush is the Earl

How could this be? !

Xiao Sheng fell into chaos for a while.

The person Breman asked him to monitor and listen to was actually that boy?

Omg.

Yes, Thad.Why didn't he think of it.This surname is so rare, how likely is it to run into someone different again.

Xiao Sheng felt the heart pounding in his chest, but others didn't notice his discomfort or nervousness at all.

The man opposite slowly approached and sat down.

Leather gowns are neat, luxurious, dignified and elegant.

When he was about to fold up the napkin for dinner, a smile appeared on the corner of the man's mouth, and he paused:

"I heard that when the manager was applying for a job, someone wanted to cut off my evergreen tree?"

It is said that the evergreen tree was a gift from Lord Earl's friend and he cherished it very much.

As soon as these words came out, there was a sense of guilt.

The Earl is a very unpredictable person.It may be because he inherited the title halfway, he didn't have the formality and rigidity of a person who was appointed as the heir at birth, nor did he have the arrogance and domineeringness of an illegitimate child brought back to take up temporary positions.

It is somewhere in between, a kind of gentle and elegant temperament full of strength and freedom.

He was moody and angry. Although it seemed that he was more happy on the surface, ordinary people couldn't figure out his thoughts. As soon as his tone rose, many people's hearts were raised.Including the old housekeeper who has served the young master for many years.

"Master," the old butler replied, "yes, this is my appointed question."

The blond man on the dining table put the napkin on, raised the fork gracefully, picked a little snack nearby and fed it into his mouth. After he swallowed it slowly, he raised his head and showed a faint smile: "Very good, good question. How did he Answer?"

The butler then described the scene at that time.

The Earl slowly stopped holding the tableware, finally put down the knife, and smiled softly.

At first, it was a small laugh that covered his lips; finally, it became bigger and bigger, and turned into an unscrupulous laugh.

"You are all talents." The Earl finished laughing, patted the butler on the shoulder, and ended the dinner.Before leaving, he suddenly stopped and said,

"By the way, tune him closer."

Who is he and how close is this? It is up to the person who hears it to figure it out.

Xiao Sheng stood where he was, already ossified.

After the people at the scene left, the old butler came to him and asked with concern, "Scared?"

Rather than being frightened just now, it would be better to say that he was frightened by the housekeeper, Xiao Sheng shook his head.

"My lord is actually very kind, don't be afraid." The old butler reminded with a smile.

"Have you been with adults for a long time?"

The old housekeeper said: "Yes, I have been in this manor since the young master's grandparents. The young master is almost the one I grew up with."

"Sir, what was he like when he was a child?" Although he was a bit abrupt, Xiao Sheng couldn't hold back and asked.

The old housekeeper glanced at him, squinted his eyes and said with a smile: "Very cute child, but his temper is a bit awkward."

"........."

It wasn't until a long time later that Xiao Sheng was able to check off the words "cute" and "that person" for a short time.

And, it's really... too cute...

----

In spring, the estate hosts a horse race.

The track is the path around the lake.

There were many stones on that small dirt road, wild flowers and weeds prospered on both sides of the road, and some bushes spread out, setting up many obstacles for the road.

This is a routine project of the manor in the early spring of each year, and some nobles from neighboring lands will be invited to discuss and exchange ideas.

This year is no exception.

Xiao Sheng happened to be the stagecoach on the day of the game.

For two years, he has been doing things in the manor, from sweeping miscellaneous, pruning flowers and trees, to post horse raising.

It is not long to see Lord Earl, and the other party may have long forgotten that there is such a person as him.

However, all his actions revolve around him, and it's hard to tell whether it's because of the mission or something else.

In my memory, the young man who stretched out his helping hand from the carriage has gradually become blurred, and turned into this young man in front of me, who is charming with every frown and smile.

"What, is it the first stage horse?" A gentle and pleasant voice came from high up.

Probably because he was distracted and moved slowly, thinking that he was not proficient.

Xiao Sheng shook his head.

Immediately, the man looked at him twice, and stretched out a hand towards him: "Come up."

Xiao Sheng: "???"

"I'll teach you." The Earl somehow got excited and made such an invitation.

But yes, as long as it doesn't involve issues of principle, this person has always done things casually.

Looking at those blue eyes, Xiao Sheng felt that he had fallen into a sea of ​​forest, with the gentle wind rising and falling.

Can't refuse and can't refuse.

Why every time I come in front of this person, I lose all my ability to speak and act.The body doesn't feel like my own.

"it is good."

He obviously knew how to ride a horse, but he pretended that he couldn't ride a horse, and the more he pretended to be smoother, he was even caught in the stirrup when he got off the horse, and was barely supported by the man.

"What's going on..." The voice of breathing and speaking came closer, as if it was right next to my ear.

Xiao Sheng didn't know that his ears were already tinged with red after trembling slightly, but he was caught by the man.

However, the Earl was also surprised and secretly happy in his heart, so he stopped talking and said nothing, just looked at the ear that became more and more cute, and even wanted to bite on it a little bit.

Forcibly held back.

"What's your name?"

"Xiao Sheng." Sure enough, I forgot.

"The family is on the side of District W?" The Earl smiled, "I remember you,

——the one who just came to cut off my evergreen tree. "

———! ! !

Xiao Sheng didn't expect this person to still remember, and he felt even more embarrassed:

"Let the adults laugh."

"No. You are very talented," the Earl stroked his fair chin, "Would you like to come and do something with me?"

The earl was only in his early twenties, and after his facial features became active, he had the aura that should be at this age, appearing vivid and sincere.

Xiao Sheng didn't know what it meant, but he subconsciously nodded.

"Okay. I'll let the butler arrange it later." The man patted him on the shoulder, and then rode his horse away to communicate with other jazz nobles in the distance.

It's just that Xiao Sheng never thought that "doing things around him" was such an approach.

warm bed?Test bath water?

Is it a joke to accidentally fall into the water and get soaked all over?Of course, it was also because the Earl was naughty and had a bad taste, holding the man's ankle and dragging him into the water.

…………

"What are you doing so far away, get closer."

"..."

"do I look good?"

"Adults are naturally good-looking."

"Then why do you feel that you are so afraid of me?" The watery hand stroked the young man's white chin, rubbing gently, "I will eat you?"

Xiao Sheng trembled slightly: "No...it won't."

…………

The seemingly invisible teasing is always everywhere.

For the Earl, it was a whim to kill boredom and pass the time, but for Xiao Sheng, it was a kind of torture that devoured his heart all the time.

After going through these things three or four times, Xiao Sheng was finally able to do things without changing his face.

No matter whether the other party is ignorant or teasing and playing, they all have a face that does not change color.

Serious and straight.

Later, I somehow discovered the magical effect of the monocle, and after putting it on the shelf, I became more mature and prudent.

The man gradually relaxed his hands and feet and stopped messing with him.

But why do I still feel a little lost?

Xiao Sheng really didn't want to admit this feeling.

Seeing that person come home late night after night, playing with flowers, somehow, the emotions in my heart changed little by little.

Become concerned, become entangled.I really want to confirm that the other party is within my field of vision all the time.

Xiao Sheng knew something was wrong with him, but he couldn't control it.

I can't help myself not to think about him, not to see him.The dark gaze at every corridor corner, the bright stare at the window.

If that person could notice it, it would definitely be scary.

How could he have such feelings?

How could he have such feelings?

...............

……

Xiao Sheng sighed, and woke up to find himself lying on a piece of clothing, a golden shawl with a faint scent of cold pine wood.

It was already two o'clock in the middle of the night, and the notice lights in the manor were still not on.

Where will that person be tonight?Who do you get along with, who do you get close to?Who is whispering in my ear, and who is speaking love language in the middle of the night?

…………

Xiao Sheng was tossed and turned by these whirling thoughts, unable to sleep.

When his thoughts were about to collapse, he sat up from the bed, picked up a pen and paper, and planned to write a short letter.

With his current state, he is no longer qualified for the undercover position.He has thoughts and feelings for the target person, and has empathy.

Xiao Sheng felt that he had failed.

I half-checked the dictionary and finished writing the letter. It was already 03:30 at night, the night whistle blew three times, and the notice light came on.

It is the Earl who has returned.

The letter in his hand trembled under the yellow oil lamp, as if he had grown wings.

Xiao Sheng stopped looking at it, picked up a book and pressed it down, got up and stood at the window, and looked out.

Outside came the clanging of carriage bells, voices, and voices, and the door lights in the front hall came on.

Indeed the man came back.

The letter suddenly became hot in my heart.What would happen if he sent this letter?

Fancheng will let him go back, and then find another person to replace him?

…………

Xiao Sheng frowned, staring at the moving figure of the man under the yellow light.

This is not a good way.

At least for that person... not too good.

Returning to the table, the letter paper was picked up by a white hand.

The letters that were written after consulting the dictionary for a long time were crumpled into balls, unfolded, torn one by one, and finally put them all in the oil lamp cover and burned them up.

In the end, only black paper ash remained on the glass wall.
