My Tsundere Guard Talks Tough but Has a Soft Heart, and His Hatred for Me Is All an Act

My personal guard, Xie Yan, has hated me for ten whole years.

When I asked why, he replied with a cool expression, each word unwavering:

“When the county princess was young, she once spied on me while I was bathing.”

I stared at him, dumbfounded. “That's it?”

He nodded firmly, the tips of his ears turning faintly red. “That's it.”

Speechless, I decided to resolve his ten-year grievance. That night, while bathing, I deliberately pulled the curtain aside and called his name.

In the next instant, the usually calm and composed guard, who wouldn't even bat an eye at a mountain of blades or a sea of flames,

froze. His face turned bright red, and he stumbled away, fleeing the room.

I stared blankly at the empty doorway.

Damn, now he seems to hate me even more.
