At this moment, Zong Zheng Xiaoting could only take a gamble and go for it.
Just with such a quick glance, this man's elegance and the grace in every gesture were all like those of a gentleman. What's more important is that when he was standing just now, his feet were clasped together and his hands were placed behind his body. It was based on this point that I dared to take this gamble.
Judging from his micro-expressions, such a person is helpful by nature. If he is helpful and a gentleman, he should not refuse the help requested by a girl in distress like me, right?
At this moment, Zong Zheng Xiaoting was like an octopus, tightly holding the man's arm.
Seeing that Zong Zheng Xiaoting was like a mouse seeing a cat, and was running away just like that of a mouse seeing a cat, Situ Xunxiao frowned, gathered his energy and leaped, landing in front of Zong Zheng Xiaoting.
"Why are you running?" Situ Xunxiao glanced at the person who hooked the man's arm, his face looked a little ugly.
"Nonsense! I finally escaped, how could I be caught by you?" Zong Zheng Xiaoting used the man as a shield and shrank behind him. The follower beside the man was about to say something, but was stopped by his master's raised hand.
"Why are you running away?" Situ Xunxiao ignored everyone else and only looked at the frightened woman in front of him. He couldn't help but frown. Was he that scary?
"If I don't run away, will I follow the princess to a place where I don't know anyone and have no freedom and no self?" Zong Zheng Xiaoting poked his head out and rolled his eyes at Situ Xunxiao. "Besides, all I want is to be reunited with my beloved. It's rare that someone wants to hunt me down. If I don't take the opportunity to escape, when will I?"
Loved one?
Situ Xunxiao frowned even more tightly, and looked at the two people's behavior. They were so intimate. Was it this person? "Just for him?"
Zong Zheng Xiaoting watched Situ Xunxiao's eyes sweeping towards the elegant man beside him, and nodded quickly, his tone softening a lot, "A gentleman should help others to achieve their goals, Your Majesty, just pretend that you didn't see me."
Helping others to achieve their goals? Situ Xunxiao's heart shuddered slightly. He felt a little unhappy when hearing these words.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here." The elegant man who had not spoken a word took the initiative to put his hand around Zongzheng Xiaoting's waist, smiled softly, and comforted her. He turned to Situ Xunxiao and nodded, "I'm Gongsun Zixing, and I'm glad to meet Prince Zhan."
The elegant man introduced himself, which made Situ Xunxiao's eyes look even more sinister.
He was seen staring at Zongzheng Xiaoting, his eyes becoming increasingly cold.
Zong Zheng Xiaoting, standing aside, could not hide his surprise and swallowed his saliva. Could it be such a coincidence? The richest businessman Gongsun Zixing?
"If you want me to let you go, then come with me." Situ Xunxiao's tone was cold, and his eyes had returned to their usual coldness.
"This..." Zongzheng Xiaoting looked at Gongsun Zixing and whispered, "Saving people to the end and sending Buddha to the west is your purpose, right?"
"Haha." Gongsun Zixing chuckled when he heard this. This woman was really interesting. What gave her the confidence that she would save him?
Gongsun Zixing whispered back, "Of course. Besides, the young lady owes me a favor for saving her life, and she hasn't repaid it yet. How could I give up halfway?"
Zong Zheng Xiaoting heard this and widened his eyes in disbelief. What this guy meant was that he had only saved half of the life, but if he didn't continue and gave up halfway, he would lose the chance to repay him. He was indeed a shrewd businessman.
However, the secret conversations between the two seemed to be an intimate act to Situ Xunxiao.
He just had a cold face and pulled Zong Zheng Xiaoting away.
"Young Master." Gongsun Zixing's followers were about to persuade him to leave, but they calmed down after their master's command.
Looking at the two people not far away, Gongsun Zixing smiled and said, "You go first, I'll be there soon."
"Yes!" Although the followers were hesitant to speak, they all knew that their master's words were final, so they could only obey orders and leave.
At this moment, Zong Zheng Xiaoting, who was not far away, looked at Situ Xunxiao with a wary look on his face, and secretly had a headache in his heart. Situ Xunxiao's life experience must be feared by everyone, and he met a person who was not afraid of him, who saved his life and blackmailed him. He was also very clear that those actions were incredible in his eyes.
People will always pay more attention to others because of curiosity, and with more attention, they will naturally have a good impression. What's more, she has never met the warm prince? She is used to being high and mighty, and used to intrigues. Wouldn't her heart be even colder? At this moment, Zong Zheng Xiaoting naturally would not think that the inexplicable emotions in her eyes were like or love.
However, maybe Situ Xunxiao still doesn't understand what's going on?
"When did I become so terrifying in your eyes?" Situ Xunxiao asked with a frown, looking at the alert Zong Zheng Xiaoting.
"When I saved you that day, I didn't know your identity, so I was naturally not afraid. Now think about it, maybe you were going to assassinate the princess at that time? It would be strange if you were not afraid of such a cruel and ruthless person." Zong Zheng Xiaoting called a horse a zebra.
"Nonsense." A sneering tone escaped from Situ Xunxiao's mouth.
"Whether it's nonsense or not, the prince knows better than me." Zong Zheng Xiaoting said with anger, "Now, our princess is being married, but she has been drugged, set on fire, and hunted down. No one knows who did it. Since the princess has been escorted away, why can't I fight for my own happiness?"
"Happiness? Aren't you not afraid of death? Why are you afraid of me now?" Situ Xunxiao's good logic made Zongzheng Xiaoting unable to help but curse.
Do I need to be so clear about it? I still remember how much I love money. Now, how am I going to cover up my lie?
"Answer me, ok?" Situ Xunxiao grabbed Zongzheng Xiaoting's wrist and looked at him with cold eyes.
"There are naturally romantic fools in the world, and this hatred has nothing to do with the wind and the moon." Zong Zheng Xiaoting blurted out, and then immediately explained: "Although I am not afraid of death, it does not mean that I have no desire in life. I just let nature take its course. Now that I have the opportunity to be together with the person I love, why can't I absorb the person in front of me?"
"Really?" Situ Xunxiao asked doubtfully, "I am quite puzzled. How could the richest businessman in the world meet and get to know a little maid like you? Moreover, it is really unbelievable that he is such a money-loving person."
It's really an indestructible cockroach, so stubborn. Zong Zheng Xiaoting cursed secretly, but still had a smile on his face, "I guess the prince has also seen the Jade Mountain and Stone Forest of Luozha Kingdom? When Gongsun Zixing entered the palace to supervise the construction, it was the beginning of our fate. As for the love of money..."
"Your Highness is so concerned about our fate, why don't you let me answer it for you?" Gongsun Zixing appeared at the right time and rescued Zongzheng Xiaoting.
