Chapter 47 The Arrogant Prince 14

Dark clouds filled the sky, the sounds of fighting rose, the clash of cold weapons echoed, and the once magnificent imperial palace was now littered with corpses.

Zhou Zichen, clad in armor and with a cold expression, fought his way into the palace.

Murong Gu sat on the dragon throne, his face extremely grim.

He did not expect that the enemy army of Lingyue Kingdom would attack in just one day.

Zhou Zichen was no longer in a hurry. He slowly walked over, carrying the still-dripping sword. "Murong Gu, I don't know why, but I found you very annoying the first time I saw you."

"If you spare my life, I'll give you the throne of Qi Kingdom, okay?" He still didn't want to die. As long as he was alive, he still had a chance to rebuild his kingdom.

Zhou Zichen smiled, finding it boring, and leaped forward to sever his head with a single sword stroke.

When his head fell to the ground, Murong Gu's eyes were still open; one could say he died with his eyes wide open.

"I'm not watching anymore, I'm not watching anymore." Xu Qiuqiu quickly asked to turn off the screen mirroring when she saw this.

Seeing a head chopped off and blood splattering was terrifying; she had nightmares about it every night.

When he put on the armor, his eyes turned cold and ruthless, as if he had become a completely different person; he truly killed without blinking an eye.

However, she now knows that Lingyue Kingdom won, which is great. The scumbag male lead is dead, and she no longer has to worry about tragic storylines.

But what should she do next? She doesn't know how he will deal with her when he comes back. Men's hearts are unfathomable; he gets unhappy for no reason.

Before he left, he threatened her, telling her that she had to wait for him to come back, or he would find her no matter where he was.

That's all fine, except that she doesn't know who to ask to boost her happiness points. The extra 20% happiness points were boosted by Zhou Zichen, and she doesn't even know how they increased.

The system doesn't stipulate that you have to use the same person, so she can switch to another person.

However, in the past two days, there hasn't been a single good-looking man in the military camp; they've all been middle-aged men. Even if she's trying to boost her happiness index, her partner shouldn't be more than a decade older than her...

But he must be in a good mood after winning the battle. When she needs some valuables to run away, he will definitely give them to her, right?

Thinking this way, she felt much more at ease. She returned to her tent and her gaze fell on the clothes she had folded not far away.

Those were the clothes he gave her when she had a cold, but she didn't change them, which caused her to catch a cold and develop a fever.

Before I could return it to him, he went to attack the city. I'll return it to him when he comes back.

Two days later, the weather gradually warmed up.

Xu Qiuqiu stood by the gate of the military camp, basking in the sun. She was getting bored to death staying in the military camp every day.

If it weren't for 003 keeping her company and chatting to relieve her boredom, she would have been driven crazy by boredom.

She had only been in the sun for a short while when she heard the sound of horses' hooves coming from afar. Soon she saw Zhou Zichen riding a horse not far away, followed by a large group of soldiers.

Zhou Zichen saw Xu Qiuqiu standing at the entrance of the main camp, looking at him from afar, as if she was looking forward to his return every day. His heart was filled with excitement, and his heart softened involuntarily.

Was she waiting for him all along?

Thinking this, all his fatigue disappeared, and he quickened his pace, soon reining in his horse and stopping in front of her.

After dismounting, he walked up to her and said, "Qiuqiu, I'm back."

I wanted to hug her, but then I remembered that my armor was covered in blood, so I suppressed the thought.

He just wanted to see her as soon as possible, so he rushed back as soon as the battle was over without taking a break.

The weary young man gently told her that he had returned.

Xu Qiuqiu's heart was suddenly touched, and she smiled at him, "You're finally back."

Seeing the girl smile at him with her eyes crinkling, Zhou Zichen took her hand and said, "Qiuqiu, come back to Lingyue Kingdom with me, okay?"

She knew about this news, but she had never thought about going back to Lingyue Kingdom with him.

Zhou Zichen, who had been full of confidence, began to panic when she didn't respond for a long time.

Doesn't she want to?

He tightened his grip on her hand.

After thinking for a long time, Xu Qiuqiu still couldn't come up with a reason to go back to Lingyue Kingdom with him. She shook her head and said, "Let's not talk about that for now. Your Highness, Prince Yan'an, please go back and get some rest."

Zhou Zichen's eyes turned cold. "Your Highness, Prince Yan'an?"

It's that distant tone again. Didn't you call him "Ah Chen" so affectionately before? Why has it changed so much after just a few days?

Seeing the boy's face darken and his grip on her hand tighten, she felt a sharp pain in her palm and couldn't help but cry out in pain.

But Zhou Zichen remained unmoved, saying, "You must come back with me."

After saying that, he didn't care whether she wanted to or not, and forcibly pulled her into the tent. Before leaving, he even sent elite soldiers to guard outside the tent.

After he left, Xu Qiuqiu was about to go out when the elite soldiers outside drew their swords and stopped her. "His Highness has ordered that you cannot leave."

Seeing the gleaming sword, Xu Qiuqiu stepped back. Was she being held captive?

“003, logically speaking, he should be in a good mood since he won. Why did he get even angrier when I told him to rest?” Xu Qiuqiu asked 003, puzzled.
