Chapter 699 Acting
When Ji Yunshu woke up again, he was no longer on the boat.
She was lying on an exquisitely crafted bed, the bedspread of which was embroidered with mandarin ducks playing in the water, the finest Suzhou embroidery.
A round-faced little maid saw her wake up and said happily: "Miss, you are finally awake. I will go and call the prince."
"Prince?" Ji Yunshu asked doubtfully, "Which prince?"
The little maid smiled and said, "Of course it's our eldest son. He brought you here."
After saying this, he told the others in the room to prepare food and then went out.
Ji Yunshu seemed to have thought of something and pulled down the curtain at the head of the bed.
The maids looked at each other, and one of them asked cautiously, "Young lady, you don't like this curtain. What kind of curtain do you like? I will go and change it right away."
At this time, Xiao Kun walked in and heard this. He ordered, "Just find someone with an ordinary look. Don't look like a mandarin duck or a pomegranate."
The little maidservant retreated in response.
Xiao Kun sent everyone away and sat down at the dining table.
He held a tray in his hand and took out the food himself while calling Ji Yunshu, "You must be hungry. Come and have a meal."
Ji Yunshu turned his head away: "I'm not hungry."
Xiao Kun said good-naturedly: "Even if you want to do something, you have to eat enough to have the strength."
As he spoke, he had already set the table for the meal.
The chefs here are quite skilled, and the dishes are very delicious. Ji Yunshu's stomach growled when he smelled the aroma.
She didn't know how long she had been unconscious, but she was indeed a little hungry.
Adhering to the principle of not treating herself badly in any way, she moved to the dining table, picked up a bowl of porridge and started drinking.
Perhaps because the ingredients were fresh, this bowl of seafood porridge tasted delicious and melted in the mouth. Ji Yunshu drank two bowls in one breath.
Xiao Kun said, "It seems this porridge is very much to your liking."
Ji Yunshu ignored him and continued eating. There was a steamed fish dish that was particularly delicious, and she couldn't help but eat a few more chopsticks.
Xiao Kun brought the plate in front of him and said, "You just woke up, so don't eat too much. Your stomach won't be able to handle it. If you like these, I'll ask the chef to make more for you. The last thing we have here is seafood."
Ji Yunshu glared at him: "What kind of place is this? Are you planning to keep me locked up here forever?"
Xiao Kun looked at her, his eyes somewhat deep: "The place you have always wanted to find. Is this place not good? Don't you like it?"
Ji Yunshu felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze, as his eyes didn't look like he was acting at all.
But she didn't know if anyone was watching them at the moment, so she had to bite the bullet and say, "I don't like it."
Xiao Kun seemed not to hear her words, and smiled and said: "You just woke up and haven't seen what's outside yet. I'll take you to see it and help you digest your food."
Ji Yunshu had no objection. She came here for a purpose and it was impossible for her to stay in the house all the time.
But if she were to run around on her own, she would definitely be restricted.
Now it’s good that Xiao Kun is with her.
It was evening when they came out. It was the hottest time of the year and the room was stuffy and uncomfortable.
But there was occasionally a cool breeze blowing outside, which made it much more comfortable.
Xiao Kun took Ji Yunshu to a garden full of various flowers.
Ji Yunshu looked at the large bunch of red roses and was a little surprised.
Seeing her eyes fall on the red rose, Xiao Kun picked one and handed it to her.
His finger was pricked by a thorn on a rose branch, and the red blood looked more eye-catching than the rose.
Ji Yunshu didn't answer, but just said: "I don't like it."
Xiao Kun was not angry either. He took the flower in his hand and played with it: "What do you like?"
Ji Yunshu: "Zhao Shen."
Xiao Kun turned to look at her: "Don't mention him in front of me. It's not good for either you or him."
Ji Yunshu observed the surroundings and said nonchalantly, "Why not? You know, whether he is mentioned or not, he is still my husband."
Xiao Kun said: "It won't be that soon."
He seemed to be in a very bad mood all of a sudden, and refused to take Ji Yunshu for a walk anymore.
When he returned to the house, a wave of heat hit him in the face, and Ji Yunshu felt like he was in a steamer.
It was her first time in such a place, and she felt uncomfortable all over.
I couldn't help but complain: "What kind of hell is this place? Can't we find a place with a better climate?"
The world is so big, there are still many corners and crevices.
Why do you have to go to a place like this to torture yourself?
Xiao Kun took a fan and came close to her to fan her: "It will be fine after a few days."
Ji Yunshu was dissatisfied: "How long are you going to keep me locked up?"
Xiao Kun said: "It's not up to me to decide, Ah Shu, since you are here, just stay here."
Ji Yunshu snorted and ignored him.
Xiao Kun leaned close to her ear and said, "My father doesn't trust me. His people are everywhere on this island. We have to be careful."
Ji Yunshu still looked angry, but he asked quietly, "When will we find the antidote?"
Xiao Kun said, "I'll find a way to find him. Just cooperate with me. It's best not to do anything in the next few days to avoid arousing his suspicion."
Ji Yunshu could also imagine that Prince Yong must be a suspicious person.
The other party didn't trust them in the first place, so it was naturally difficult for her to do anything.
In the next few days, Xiao Kun had nothing to do and stayed around Ji Yunshu all day long.
Ji Yunshu, on the other hand, looked as if he didn't want to talk to her.
The two of them acted very realistically.
One day, when Ji Yunshu and Xiao Kun were admiring the flowers in the garden, someone suddenly came to inform Xiao Kun: "The prince wants to see the prince."
Xiao Kun said nonchalantly, "I understand," but he still personally sent Ji Yunshu back to the house before going to see King Yong.
Prince Yong is now only in his forties and is a handsome middle-aged man.
He sat at his desk with a map in front of him.
Xiao Kun took a glance and then looked away without interest.
"What do you want me for?"
Prince Yong looked helpless: "I heard that you have been hanging around the girl from the Ji family these days. Don't forget that she is already married. It is not a good idea to keep her locked up like this."
Xiao Kun said confidently, "How could I have kept her locked up? We were just enjoying the flowers in the garden."
Prince Yong said unhappily, "You know what I'm talking about."
Xiao Kun said indifferently, "What does what you said have to do with me? Zhao Shen has ruined so many things for you, don't you wish he were dead? Let's kill him together. I get the man, and you get the benefits. Isn't that great?"
Prince Yong glared at him. "What nonsense are you talking about? Is Zhao Shen that easy to kill? You only cause me trouble."
Xiao Kun said impatiently: "You are the one who tied me back here, and now you think I'm causing trouble. How about you let me go?"
Prince Yong seemed oblivious to the impatience on his face and acted in a good-tempered manner.
"You're already so grown up, why do you always say such childish things? Ji family girl, what are you planning?"
