Chapter 51 Spell-Making Prodigy Girl VS. The Demon Lord Who Shares Her Bed 24

Jiang Zhiyi was so sleepy that she didn't notice the complaint in Qi Suihuan's tone.

Her brows were furrowed, and she was extremely agitated.

What's wrong with Qi Suihuan again?

She wasn't interested, and he wasn't interested either.

Neither of them has a heart, how can this be changed? From where? Through seventy-two transformations?

He's read too many melodramatic romance novels!

Jiang Zhiyi was not going to pay any attention to him; he was just some random man.

But upon closer reflection, she realized that since she wasn't clinging to him like usual, he probably thought she had given up on him, so he was deliberately testing her today.

Even though she had consciously distanced herself from him, there was still a magical entanglement between them.

After thinking it through, she carefully considered her words and said, "I will find a way to resolve the issue of the curse. I have been researching it recently. Actually, what I said back then was not entirely the truth."

"The mystery of spells lies in their ever-changing nature. Forcibly breaking a spell can be life-threatening, but there may be other suitable methods."

"You want to break the curse?" Qi Suihuan raised her voice by an octave.

"Don't you want to break the curse?" Jiang Zhiyi asked back, not understanding why he would react this way.

He remained silent for a moment, offering no reply.

After dealing with him, Jiang Zhiyi fell into a deep sleep.

Qi Suihuan's face was hidden in the darkness, and he suddenly remembered what Ruan Lingyue had said to him that day.

However, he quickly suppressed a strange thought in his mind: how could she not like him?

...

Council Hall.

Duan Shiyi and Duan Shier stood inside the hall, extremely nervous.

His Majesty just summoned them with a very serious expression, which suggests that something major may have happened in the Demon Realm.

"I have a question for you."

"Your Majesty, please speak. I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"

Qi Suihuan sat down in the main seat, rubbed his temples, and asked with considerable annoyance, "What do you all think of how I treat Jiang Zhiyi?"

Duan Shiyi and Duan Shier stared at each other in disbelief.

Hmm, what did His Excellency ask?

Duan Shiyi: "Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and you have a plan in mind. Whatever you do to her, you must have your reasons."

"Speak human language to me."

Duan Shiyi: "Not good, very bad."

Duan Shier nodded frantically in agreement.

"When Miss Jiang first arrived, Your Excellency almost strangled her with demonic energy the moment you saw her, and then threw her into the dark dungeon to scare her. It was only after your attitude softened a bit that Miss Jiang accompanied you to the Immortal Sect, but when you came back, you found a new love and abandoned her."

"Normally, when Miss Jiang sees you, she's always smiling, but you're always cold and sarcastic, with a gloomy expression. Fortunately, she's never seemed to care..."

Qi Suihuan frowned. "You two continue."

"Although this relationship was indeed one-sided and forced upon Miss Jiang, your actions were truly unethical. In the stories, you are a thoroughly cold-hearted man, and you might be struck by lightning."

"Now that Miss Jiang has come to terms with it, please do not make things difficult for her, Your Excellency."

"Although Miss Jiang is a bit spoiled, she is straightforward, innocent, clear-headed, and very rare."

Qi Suihuan pondered their words carefully.

"When did I find a new love?"

"The entire Demon Palace knows that you care deeply about Miss Ruan."

Qi Suihuan pursed her lips: "I only took care of her because of General Ruan."

Duan Shiyi couldn't help but say, "Why does Your Majesty say such a thing? This matter has been the subject of much discussion, and everyone knows the truth."

Duan Twelve chimed in, "That's the same excuse used by heartless men in storybooks: taking care of their pitiful cousins ​​who come seeking refuge, pitying the courtesans who sell their bodies for their tragic pasts, and favoring their impoverished and helpless personal maids..."

Qi Suihuan said unhappily, "I truly have no feelings for Ruan Lingyue. What you're saying is all rumors."

Duan Twelve and Duan Eleven did not want to argue with him at this time, so they remained silent.

Ignoring the subtle scrutinizing glances they were casting, Qi Suihuan asked again, "Jiang Zhiyi has been quite cold towards me lately... Do you know any ways to win her favor?"

"What do you mean by this, Your Excellency?"

"The person I love is Jiang Zhiyi, and she has always been the only one for me. She is unhappy, and I want to make her happy."

Duan Shiyi and Duan Shier immediately perked up; were their favorite CP (couple pairing) about to come back to life?

As expected, their previous assumptions were correct!

"Your Excellency, if that's the case, then I do have some ideas."

The group talked for a long time inside the hall.

...

Qi Suihuan went to Jingge to find Ruan Lingyue.

After discussing with the Dharma protectors for a long time, the first thing we should do now is to clarify those rumors.

He never cared about these things, but that didn't mean Jiang Zhiyi did too. It was his fault; he should have tried to see things from her perspective.

Ruan Lingyue was somewhat surprised; she hadn't expected Qi Suihuan to make such a request.

"Demon Lord, you should think back to my warning that day. The problem isn't with me, and my explanation is useless. Perhaps Jiang Zhiyi doesn't really like you."

"You'd better go directly to her and ask her directly."

...

Qi Suihuan went straight back to her bedchamber, her aura incredibly low.

As soon as he reached the entrance of the hall, he saw Jiang Zhiyi using a communication array to talk to someone.

In the scene depicted by the array, the man listened to her complaints with eyes full of doting affection.

He recognized him as her senior brother, Chen You.

With a face like jade, and a cheerful and refined demeanor, he seemed to be a perfect match for her.

Jiang Zhiyi clearly trusts and relies heavily on the person in front of her.

Qi Suihuan couldn't hear Chen You's voice and didn't know what he said. Jiang Zhiyi felt wronged and burst into tears after hearing it.

Immediately, Qi Suihuan heard her voice, trembling with tears and filled with anxiety—

"Senior brother, please find a way to break the curse for me, okay? I promise I'll never mess around again."

“I don’t want to stay by his side. I’m already tired of him.”

Qi Suihuan felt as if cold water had been poured over his head, and the blood in his body was freezing inch by inch.

His body began to tremble slightly, the veins on his hands bulged, and his eyes held an unconcealable gloom and ferocity.
