Ji Yan paced back and forth in the room twice, looking around, before finally locking her gaze on something.
He picked up the Qinglang sword hanging on the wall and handed it to Shen Jiao.
Ji Yan spoke in an encouraging voice.
"Come, kill me, and then peel off this skin of mine. You'll be satisfied, and I'll be satisfied. Isn't that the best of both worlds?"
The so-called "best of both worlds" means one person dies, and the other suffers a fate worse than death.
No, it's not that life is worse than death, it's just that death is a bit slower.
Shen Jiao couldn't help but grumble inwardly.
"I said that's one reason, but I didn't say that's the only reason."
She thought for a moment and then said, "The appearance is certainly beautiful, but that's because the owner of this appearance is His Majesty, and only you, Ji Yan. If it were someone else, I would only find them handsome, nothing more, not be moved, understand?"
When Shen Jiao had nothing to do, she calmed down and thought about it.
The tyrant's life was full of ups and downs, and he was often irrational and stubborn. He probably never thought about romance or love in his life.
So, the situation she is facing now is—
Is a complete novice in love teaching a proud, arrogant, and delusional princess who only thinks about destroying herself how to date?
The road ahead is long, maybe we should just give up.
Other men in this world may not be as handsome as the tyrant, nor as rich or powerful.
But there are quite a few high-quality fakes, and they all look the same when the lights are off, so she can make do with them.
Shen Jiao weighed the Qinglang Sword in her hand, feeling a slight headache.
The main problem is that this road not only seems to have no end, but also no future whatsoever.
"You mean, you still like my flesh and blood?"
Ji Yan thought about it seriously for a while and gave a very sincere suggestion.
"I have experience skinning people. The flesh and blood of millions of people are all the same. They will rot and breed maggots, and they will stink to the extreme. There is nothing to see. But the skin is good. It can be used to make lanterns."
Shen Jiao felt a chill run down her spine just thinking about the scene of skinning someone alive. "Why make lanterns? To light up my grave?"
Ji Yan raised an eyebrow slightly: "It's not impossible."
Shen Jiao: "..."
Where is Red Wolf? She wants to give him a frying pan.
Shen Jiao's eyes held a complex expression.
"Your Majesty, why do you have to think of this as so violent and bloody... Hey, wait a minute, sit down and listen to me, my neck is so tired from looking up like this."
"Tsk, their audacity has grown, and their demands have increased."
Despite saying that, Ji Yan still sat by the couch and listened attentively.
Well, he wasn't being too serious. His hands couldn't stay still, so he started playing with the ends of Shen Jiao's hair.
Hamsters with frizzy fur have delicate skin, so you can't bite them; it's better to just pluck their hair.
Shen Jiao sat cross-legged and said earnestly, "It's hard to explain what liking someone is; you have to feel it with your heart. It could be that I'm happy every day when I see Your Majesty, and I can't eat or sleep when I don't see Your Majesty. It could also be that I feel fearless and have a strong sense of security when Your Majesty is around..."
"You're stupid."
As Ji Yan listened, she suddenly interrupted Ji Yan's heartfelt confession.
Shen Jiao: "..."
I'm so stupid.
Am I stupid?
Shen Jiao asked in return, thinking she was hallucinating.
Ji Yan nodded, not finding anything wrong with it, and instead began to analyze it seriously.
"You must be crazy. Even that stupid woman who gave birth to me trembles in fear when she sees me. You actually say you feel safe with me, Shen Jiao. You should know that I am the most dangerous person in the world."
As he uttered those last words, his eyes were deep and devoid of light, yet a smug smile played on his lips.
It really resembles the smug, almost heaven-satisfied attitude of a primary school student who has just drawn a hidden card.
It's so annoying.
This is the first time in a long time that the tyrant has subtly mentioned his birth mother.
However, Shen Jiao's attention was now completely focused on the word "stupid".
Imagine her, a stunning beauty with a beautiful face, big breasts, and a perky butt, speaking passionately from the heart. While most people might not be moved to tears by her words, they would certainly be touched.
But Princess Ji Yan, this madwoman, was different.
He was actually analyzing the reality for her with the calmest and clearest thought process?
It's like a pink, romantic bubble, with your own heart-pounding background music ready, but the tyrant is holding a set of test papers and yelling through a megaphone at her to stop being so carefree and quickly do some advanced math problems to boost her IQ.
Is this really a normal man?
Is he really incapable?
"Go to hell with that banana pineapple spiral fart!" Shen Jiao gritted her teeth inwardly.
It's confirmed; this person is most likely allergic to romance!
"Even if they were cursing very softly, I could still hear them."
Ji Yan, with a face as handsome as jade and a smile as gentle as a spring breeze, once again held her fingers and carefully blew on them.
Shen Jiao's fingers trembled slightly.
The tyrant was ice-cold all over, and his breath was also cold, but she felt it was burning hot.
The feeling was distracting, and she tried to pull her hand away.
Ji Yan lifted her eyelids. "Move again, and I'll bite you."
Shen Jiao immediately stopped moving, thinking to herself, "Cai Cai, I stopped biting people when I was three years old."
Ji Yan stared at her: "Sharing happiness is worse than enjoying it alone. Say it out loud and make me happy too."
Shen Jiao: "..."
This person is really strange. When you're being genuinely sincere with him, he's gloomy and irritable.
Scolding him makes him happy, and the corners of his lips curl up so high that even an iron can't smooth them out.
It's truly unfathomable.
Only the flaws.
Shen Jiao was at a loss with the tyrant for a moment. She yawned, relaxed her body, and leaned back.
The person was completely buried in the blankets, so their face was not visible.
"I'm tired, Your Majesty. I want to sleep for a while. Go watch your stars and watch your rooster hatch its chicks."
