Cheng Xiao Kui said, "Besides this condition! I am Si Muyang's wife! This is the only condition I cannot discuss with you!"
The man said, "What's so good about being his wife? A lifetime of mutual respect and courtesy, and no children at all? Don't you like children? Little dumplings are so cute."
Cheng Xiao Kui felt her head buzzing; this man even knew about xiaolongbao (soup dumplings).
It seems this man has thoroughly investigated everyone in her family and Si Muyang's family.
She said, "What does having children have to do with our love? I don't love him because of the children!"
The man said, "You're right. Two people loving each other has absolutely nothing to do with having children. But children are the continuation of both people's lives. It would be such a pity if they didn't have one."
If we can love each other and have children, that's a perfect life, don't you think? And I can give you that opportunity!
Cheng Xiao Kui said with a sneer, "Don't talk like you're giving me a chance. I didn't ask you to give me such a chance!"
Aside from this, I can talk to you about everything else! You went through all that trouble to kidnap me, you definitely didn't come here to be my woman!
The man asked, "Why would you think that? Don't you have any confidence in yourself?"
Cheng Xiao Kui said, word by word, "What does this have to do with confidence! I'm just not arrogant. There are so many women in the world."
There are people younger and prettier than me, more educated than me, and from better families than me.
No matter how you compare, there are plenty of women standing in front of me. Unless you have something for me to do, you don't need me at all!
The man said, "At least you have some self-awareness! There are indeed plenty of women who are prettier and more educated than you."
If I wanted it, you could line up from your doorstep all the way to the military headquarters!
But I just like other people's things. Have you ever seen a child eating? If you offer him food alone, he won't eat it; but if someone else takes it from him, he'll eat it immediately!
I have this strange personality; the more you don't want to be with me, the more I want you.
Cheng Xiao Kui's face twitched slightly. She said, "What are you trying to steal? I'm not braised pork or sweet and sour pork ribs. Besides, I don't even know your name."
The man said, "Don't you already know?"
Cheng Xiao Kui said, "I only know your code name is 'Your Majesty.' What is your real name?"
The king said, “Let’s call you Your Majesty. This is my name, and also my code name.”
Cheng Xiaokui said, "Impossible, no one's name and code name are the same."
The emperor's lips curled slightly as he said, "That is me. Whether you believe it or not, my name is the emperor. You can call me the emperor, or you can call me Your Majesty."
Cheng Xiaokui looked at the man in front of her with a probing gaze. To be honest, her eyes would wander if she looked at him for too long, because this man looked too much like Si Muyang.
She asked, "How long will it take for Si Muyang's injuries to heal so that he can stay conscious every day?"
The emperor said, "Isn't it easy to keep him conscious? I'll just change his medicine a few times."
"Cheng Xiao Kui, to put it bluntly, whether he's a human, a ghost, or a zombie is entirely up to you."
Cheng Xiao Kui said, "I already said that I can talk to you about everything except that one thing. Why don't you just tell me directly what you want me to do? If I can help you with that, I will agree to your request."
Clearly, the negotiations have reached a stalemate between the two.
Jun Shang said, "I have no other requirements besides this one. You can reconsider."
After he finished speaking, he raised his hand and gestured for him to enter.
Cheng Xiao Kui knew that the Emperor was telling her to leave. She followed the Emperor for a few steps, then turned back to look at Si Muyang lying on the hospital bed.
The king drugged her, rendering her unconscious, and brought her to this horrible place. The king also drugged Si Muyang, keeping him confined in this room.
She understood the emperor's intention; as long as she didn't follow his conditions, Si Muyangjiang would remain asleep forever.
It was simply impossible for her to save Si Muyang.
There were only the two of them, her and Si Muyang, but Si Muyang couldn't help her.
Time is what she needs most right now; she needs to think of a solution.
Therefore, she insisted that she could not reach an agreement with the emperor on the terms, only in this way could the emperor take her back to his room.
Everything went as she wished; the king took her back to her room.
The king said, "Think carefully about the terms I've discussed with you. I'll come back to ask you about them tomorrow."
Cheng Xiao Kui asked, "Do they provide food here? You're not trying to starve me to death, are you?"
The king said, "I will definitely provide you with food. As my woman, although I can't say you'll have the power to command the wind and rain, you'll definitely be well-fed and clothed, and you can get whatever you want."
Cheng Xiao Kui said, "Can I get whatever I want? I want to eat meat buns, sweet and sour pork ribs, braised pork, and braised prawns. These shouldn't be too difficult to get, right?"
She didn't mention lobster or abalone, mainly because mentioning those things in this day and age is pointless; they simply don't exist.
But these days, even large prawns are available; they're just not easy to get.
The king said, "Is this all you want? You'll be able to eat it in a little while."
Cheng Xiao Kui stared in astonishment at the man's retreating figure. What did he say? She would be able to eat it soon.
Are you kidding me? This godforsaken place has giant prawns?
The door to Cheng Xiao Kui's room was closed, and the room remained dark. She groped her way back to bed in the dark.
Time ticked by, and she tapped her head lightly with her fingers. For some reason, her usually sharp mind seemed to have crashed at this moment. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't come up with a solution to her current predicament.
The only somewhat useful method she could think of at the moment was to stall for time as much as possible.
Another strategy is to buy time, giving yourself time to come up with a solution, and to buy time for Song Jingchuan to come up with a solution.
She knew that Song Jingchuan must be searching for them everywhere right now!
Judging from Song Jingchuan and Ye Feng's abilities, Chief Zhao should now know everything. If Chief Zhao trusts her and Si Muyang, he will definitely put Song Jingchuan in charge of thoroughly investigating this matter.
If Song Jingchuan is quick enough, she and Si Muyang should be able to be rescued before she and the Emperor reach an agreement.
She didn't know how long she had slept, but she felt that she hadn't slept for too long. If her feeling was right, then this place should not be too far from her home, at least it was still in the capital.
How many people are there in the army? She tapped her temple with her fingers, wishing she could take this opportunity to find out exactly how many spies the emperor had under his command.
Or should we just go all out and use our feminine wiles?
Thinking of using a honey trap, Cheng Xiao Kui pursed her lips. She was absolutely confident in using a honey trap on others, but this man called Jun Shang was too cold and ruthless. She really wasn't sure she could pull off a scheme right under Jun Shang's nose.
But why does this man look so much like Si Muyang?
