Chapter 1453: Chapter 1537: Are You Stupid or What
Every time he saw that person, eyes reddened with anger and vexation, yet unable to retort due to clumsiness, he found great amusement in his heart.
Thinking back now, those were probably among the few happy days of his life.
Between him and Dong Baowei, it began with manipulation. To better understand Dong Baowei, he even secretly observed the death soldiers around him.
Similar identities, doing similar things, even though Dong Baowei was in charge of the Ninth Princess’s Secret Department and was more advanced than ordinary death soldiers, what was she thinking in her heart?
Once, he had someone follow her and learned she had taken on another mission. He followed in the shadows, and he saw her charging through the blood rain, looking more like a beast than any beast could, cold and ruthless. But after she had killed everyone, she dismissed her subordinates and suddenly clutched her chest, bent over, and vomited.
She did not want to kill!
But she was loyal.
She was willing to do anything for the Ninth Princess.
Even if it meant going against her own will, staining her seemingly small and dark hands with blood.
She chose a thorny path, and her heart was as fragile as her body. She clearly could not bear it, yet she still gritted her teeth and endured.
"Are you foolish? If you’re unwilling, why force yourself?"
That day, he sat high on a wall, dressed in red, a jug of wine in his left hand, and an apple in his right. She stood under a tree, with a pile of vomit by her feet.
She glanced at him indifferently and turned around to leave.
He leaped down: "Is it possible for you to ignore me when I speak to you? Is this how His Highness Ninth educated you? Why don’t you have any manners?"
As long as the Ninth Princess was mentioned, she would inevitably yield, be cautious, hesitate, and compromise. This was her life’s rule, and what he concluded through observation.
So as expected, her steps halted, and she turned to look at him patiently. "Dong greets Young Master Xiao!"
At that time, she had not yet come of age, yet she clasped her hands and saluted him.
He sneered: "Why act so elderly, little girl? First, clean the filth at the corner of your mouth before talking."
She was taken aback for a moment, then wiped the filth off her mouth.
With a flick of his hand, he threw the apple towards her: "No need to thank me, consider it a reward. It’s not pleasant on an empty stomach."
Instinctively, she caught the apple and then frowned, "I don’t want it!"
He glared coldly: "How dare you? This young master rewards you, and you dare refuse? Don’t be oblivious to what’s good for you. Even if Ji Jiuhuang were here, as the son of Xiao Cheng, things given by this young master, she wouldn’t dare reject like you do!"
So, with her small, dark hand, she gripped the large, bright red apple that was much bigger than her hand. She tightly pressed her lips, looking stubborn, but in the end, did not return it.
He pressed his advantage: "Well, eat it, will you? Ah, wait, have some wine first to rinse your mouth."
Laughing, he moved closer to her, reaching out a hand. Instinctively she wanted to slap it away, but he snorted unhappily, "Don’t be ungrateful. You work for the Ninth Princess, but you’re ultimately just a fake slave’s servant. Repeatedly disrespecting this young master isn’t important, but Ji Jiuhuang might not be able to explain to this young master."
The Ninth Princess, Ji Jiuhuang, was her only weakness. Like the seven-inch spot on a snake, holding there meant he had her.
She did not move anymore, but he inexplicably grew angry, roughly pried open her mouth, and poured the harsh liquor into her, causing her to choke and tears and snot to flow out.
