Chapter 363: The conditions are too simple at 363 Chapter 363: The conditions are too simple at 363 When did it begin?
She always deliberately maintained a distance from herself, no longer as she used to be. Although she was also reserved, she was not as constantly on guard against him as she is now.
It seemed to start when she came back from Nanchang, after learning about her identity, she left without saying goodbye, and this time at the Royal Residence, she was unwilling to acknowledge him.
Later, when his own poisoning occurred, he discovered her secret place even more, and she became ruthless in her intent to kill him.
Sikong Mo didn’t like the way things were between them now, but he was used to commanding others and had never guessed at others’ thoughts. Although he wanted to, he didn’t know how he could restore his relationship with Ye Jiu to what it was before.
“I will help you find someone, but, in the future, do not call yourself a common girl in front of me.” That polite tone was really uncomfortable to hear.
“Really?” Ye Jiu couldn’t believe it.
He had thought of many conditions Sikong Mo might propose, but he had never imagined his condition would be so simple and unbelievable.
“Could it be that I have ever lied to you?” Sikong Mo raised an eyebrow.
My goodness, he is really handsome!
Ye Jiu barely managed to restrain herself from showing her infatuation.
“No, no, Prince always keeps his word,” Ye Jiu quickly shook her head, “I just didn’t expect the Prince’s condition to be so simple!”
She had thought that his condition would definitely be for her to cure his poisoning.
After all, life and health are the most important, aren’t they?
This was right; Sikong Mo thought, at this moment, Ye Jiu was exceptionally cute, a thousand times more pleasing to the eye than her usual prim and proper appearance.
The way she shook her head and sighed deeply was so appealing that, for the first time in his life, Sikong Mo felt a wicked pleasure in teasing her.
He stood up and walked closer, “Since you think the condition is too simple, how about we add another?”
Ye Jiu’s face fell immediately, was this not shooting herself in the foot?
Could she say she couldn’t?
“Prince, whatever your condition is, just say it, as long as… I can do it.” Ye Jiu spoke with a twinge of guilt.
Given Sikong Mo’s status, what she could do for him probably only involved the Plane Space.
Ironically, this was precisely the secret Ye Jiu least wanted anyone to discover, so she felt exceptionally vexed, always feeling like a treasure belonging to her was being stolen by someone else.
Sikong Mo took two more steps forward, and the distance between them was very close, so close that Ye Jiu could feel the heat emanating from his body, yet there was no actual contact.
“From now on, you may continue to call me… Sir Sikong!” Sikong Mo initially wanted to say she could call him by his name, but thinking it through, it seemed too presumptuous, so he only stepped back allowing her to address him as Sir Sikong, which was much more pleasant to hear than being called Prince repeatedly.
“Sir… Sir Sikong, is that it?” Ye Jiu had never expected that Sikong Mo’s condition would be just that.
Such a simple condition, yet it made her feel like even her heart was in turmoil.
Ye Jiu’s voice was very soft and tender, especially with such a shocked tone, it sounded even sweeter.
Sikong Mo was very pleased with this.
“I will inquire about your elder brother’s matter, and also, manage those people around you, and from now on, walk this path with me.” Since Ye Jiu had left, Sikong Mo had never given up on keeping an eye on her, so he was already well aware of what had happened to Ye Jiu all this way.
He hadn’t intervened, only because he was actively waiting for her to speak.
But now, none of that mattered anymore.
