Wild Crazy Male Lead's Forced Love, You Don't Want, I Want!

The journey was long, and the two chatted in the carriage to pass the time. Su Yao discovered that Xiao Cui was far more intelligent than she had imagined. Not only could she read, but she also had a good understanding of local customs and traditions.

”How do you know so much?” Su Yao asked in surprise.

Xiao Cui lowered her head, embarrassed. ”When this servant was little, she followed her father traveling all over the country performing. Later, her father died of illness, and she was sold to the mansion as a maid. All of this was heard on the road.”

Su Yao felt a pang in her heart. In her previous life, she had never truly understood Xiao Cui, only treating her as an dispensable maid. Now that she thought about it, she was truly foolish.

”Don’t call yourself ’this servant’ anymore,” Su Yao suddenly said. ”Just call me ’older sister’.”

Xiao Cui’s eyes widened. ”How can that be! Miss is a noble lady, I…”

”I say it’s fine, then it’s fine,” Su Yao insisted. ”From now on, we are sisters.”

Xiao Cui’s eyes reddened. She bit her lip, and after a long while, she softly called out, ”Sister Yao…”

Su Yao smiled in response, a warmth she had never felt before welling up in her heart.
