Chapter 167: Eavesdropping, Getting Corns
The little thing changed from its usual carefree demeanor, twisting and turning on the spot, almost twisting itself into a pretzel.
His mouth felt like it was filled with lead and he couldn't utter a word for a long time.
Zhao Xue was not in a hurry. She just looked at him, twisting her body and feeling uncomfortable.
That looks so cute.
"No……"
"No?" Zhao Xue suddenly realized, "It's not a courtship."
She was inexplicably disappointed, but it was only a little disappointment, not much.
It’s like missing the bus. It’s okay, just wait for the next one.
"I...I was thinking about you..." The little thing stuttered, his head almost buried in his chest.
"Do you miss me?" Zhao Xue frowned. She suspected that the person in front of her was not very smart.
She just stood there, thinking about something else.
“No, no…”
"What is that?" Zhao Xue's patience was beginning to wear thin.
I glanced into the distance, wondering if it was over with the princess.
Although they were only apart for a short while, she still missed the princess very much.
The little thing raised his head carefully, as if he had made a great decision, bit his lip and said, "I think if you are in danger, I... I can help you fight."
"I'm in danger?" Zhao Xue frowned. Why don't you want to help me?
"Yeah." The little thing nodded. "Who knows, tomorrow or an accident, which one will happen?"
Zhao Xue: ...
It can almost be concluded that he is just not smart. Who would curse others like this?
He acted like he was doing this for her own good, which was really speechless.
"Will you help me fight?" Zhao Xue stared at his small body.
Not as tall as Liekong, not as handsome as Qingqiu, not as smart as Ziye.
His words are not as sweet as Park Shuo's, and when it comes to hard work and diligence, he is not as good as Chi Yao and Xiao Zhan.
He even lost the fight to the rookie Jingchen.
It’s not that Zhaoxue looks down on people, it’s just that the little guy has nothing to show for it.
He also has a bad temper and speaks in a mean way, which makes him unpleasant. He also has a bad temper and seems like he can explode at any time.
He has no emotional intelligence at all. He actually dared to fight with the eldest prince Jingchen in front of the tribe leader of the Hummer tribe.
"Yes, I'm here and I won't let anyone bully you." The little thing said seriously.
Zhao Xue just wanted to laugh when she heard this. Such a small person with such a big tone.
I don’t know who gave him the confidence.
"I, Zhaoxue, can protect myself. I don't need you to fight for me."
Zhao Xue refused bluntly. If they really got into trouble, it was not certain who would help whom.
"Then..." The little thing was obviously a little uncomfortable with being rejected, and he didn't even expect it.
As outstanding as he is, he was rejected by females.
As soon as he stepped into the love world, he suffered such a blow. The little guy didn't collapse. He is considered strong.
"Then we can fight side by side. Don't you want to be a hero and bravely travel the world? Let's do it together."
"How do you know?" Zhao Xue wondered. She seemed to have never mentioned this matter to the Hummer tribe.
"I... asked someone." The little thing smiled awkwardly.
Qingqiu, who was hiding in the tree and eavesdropping, suddenly sneezed.
"A-choo~"
"Who? Come out?" Zhao Xue held the knife in one hand and blocked the little thing behind her with the other.
The little thing lowered its head shyly. She was protecting him!
Oh my god, I’m so happy, I’m so happy that pink bubbles are popping out of my eyes.
Qingqiu changed back into human form, jumped down from the tree, and yawned.
"Can't you see I'm sleeping? You guys are chattering so loud."
Qingqiu started talking nonsense as soon as he opened his mouth. He was clearly the one who eavesdropped, but it seemed like Zhaoxue and the little thing were the ones who were wrong.
"Eavesdropping will get you corns." Zhao Xue was too lazy to argue with him.
If he wasn't the princess's beastly husband, she would have wanted to chop him into pieces in a second.
"I've had enough sleep, so I'm going to take a walk. You guys continue."
Qingqiu glared at the little thing and then ran away.
The little guy touched his nose. He would definitely not tell Zhao Xue that he had heard about her from Qing Qiu.
"Okay, you are in cahoots with Qingqiu." Zhao Xue put the knife on the little thing's neck, her eyes fierce.
"Um...we're good friends. It's normal for good friends to chat and stuff like that."
The little thing pushed her knife away with his hand. There was no fear in his eyes, but rather a little excitement.
She threatened him with a knife, and she was so close to him.
She must not be like this to others. He must be the most special one in her heart.
Maya, who was in the distance, peeked at this side while beating Likong hard.
"Look, look, how close they are. There's drama."
Maya was dancing with excitement. She didn't like falling in love, but watching others fall in love seemed quite interesting.
Except for the princess, of course.
As soon as she saw the princess kissing and being intimate with those beastly men, she wanted to kick those males away.
You nasty pigs, you can "harm" others, but you can't "harm" the princess.
Liekong smiled faintly. It was also the first time he discovered that gossiping about others was a very happy thing.
Qingqiu said calmly, "Why are you so excited? I don't think they have any chance at all."
"What did you just see and hear? Tell us quickly." Maya pulled Qingqiu, the fire of gossip burning in her eyes.
Afraid that Qingqiu would not agree, she shook his hand and acted coquettishly, "Hurry up."
Qingqiu got goose bumps all over his body, "Oh, there's no clear distinction between men and women."
Shaking off her hand, Qingqiu cleared his throat and said, "Zhao Xue looked down on the little thing, and the little thing was ruthlessly rejected."
"What exactly did they say?" Maya asked.
"Anyway, the man is in love and the woman is not interested. The process is not important, the result is just like this."
Maya rolled her eyes. The process was important, but she didn't care about the result.
It’s either agree or refuse, this is a multiple-choice question.
Zhao Xue put away the knife and said to the little thing, "That's it. Don't mention it again."
The little thing agreed reluctantly, then turned around and ran to Mu Tong to complain.
"Mother, I like a female, but she doesn't like me. What should I do?"
Mu Tong was extremely happy. Her son, who had just said he couldn't get married, suddenly came to his senses.
"Who doesn't like my son?" Mu Tong suppressed her inner excitement and asked in a low voice.
"That's not important. How can I win the favor of females?" the little thing asked, looking up.
"Females like strong males, who have to be first-rate in both physical strength and ability."
When Mu Tong was young, she was too picky and didn't like this or that.
She no longer has that kind of energy now that she is old, and now when she is asked to give her son some advice, she is a little confused.
As a female, she personally prefers strong males.
I don’t know if my son can understand this.
"Mom, then I'm doomed." The little guy has some self-awareness and his abilities are average.
As for physical strength, no one has tried it with him yet, and he himself doesn't know.
"Son, don't be discouraged. If the right way doesn't work, I can still take you on a shortcut."
"Shortcut? It can't be some crooked way, right?" The little guy likes Zhao Xue, but he wants to conquer Zhao Xue with his personal charm.
"Is witchcraft a crooked way?" Mu Tong asked back.
The little thing shook his head without thinking, "No."
This is what my mother does, how could she be doing something crooked?
"That's it, tell me, how did you fall in love with that girl?"
"She looks charming when she shoots arrows."
The little thing's heart started pounding just thinking about the scene of that day.
