It’s so early, it’s not even daybreak yet.
The waiter had a hard time getting up.
I got up with great reluctance, and was forced to dress by four maids for a long time.
The empty stomach was so tight that it hurt.
And what's with this golden outfit?
Even the little hat on his head is golden.
Now I am like a walking gold ingot. There is a line of words written on my face saying "I am very rich, come and rob me".
Si Jiusheng went downstairs with no hope.
"Your Highness, are you feeling unwell?"
Even the sight of the exceptionally handsome Charles couldn't cheer Si Jiu up.
Sijiu shook his head listlessly and said listlessly, "Hungry. Sleepy."
Her dejected look was very similar to the kitten his mother raised at home, which made Charles' fingers itch and he almost wanted to rub her head.
"I have prepared cake and fresh fruit for Your Highness. Please have some first."
The little girl's listless look was replaced by surprise, and her eyes sparkled again, "Charles~ How can you be so nice? I like you so much."
Charles smiled slightly, "That's what I should do."
If those eyes were their natural color, they would look better, he thought unconsciously.
After a simple meal, the group set off again.
This time, it was not a long journey through mountains and rivers as Sijiu had thought, but rather a journey through the temple's teleportation array.
Si Jiu had the impression that he had never come into contact with magic before, so he was somewhat curious about this thing.
The priest began to chant the magic spell, and the hexagram-shaped magic circle slowly lit up.
The light was soft, but it made it difficult to see what was in front of him. The little girl beside him seemed a little uneasy and quietly moved closer to him.
Charles felt a slight ripple in his heart, and before he could react, he held her hand.
The girl's palms were small, but even through the gloves, one could feel the softness of their hands.
It was like a feather passing through Charles' heart. He inexplicably felt that his heart seemed softer than her palm.
The light disappeared.
The surrounding scene has completely changed.
In the dead and dark jungle, there were rotten dead leaves under my feet, and the wind carried an unidentified smell, either fishy or a mixture of rain and soil, which made me feel uncomfortable.
The coldness hits me in the face.
When you get here, there seems to be an invisible sense of oppression in the air, which makes people tremble with fear and even want to suppress their breathing as lightly as possible.
Even Charles's usually calm face showed a serious and vigilant expression.
The guards didn't even dare to breathe.
"Your Highness, I will carry you on my back."
Charles said in a very soft voice, and knelt down in front of the wine steward.
"No need, my foot is healed."
"It'll get your shoes dirty," said Charles.
is that so?
"Hurry up, Your Highness! There are strict time limits for entry and exit here. Failure to comply will result in serious consequences."
Having said that, Si Jiu stopped being pretentious and lay on Charles's back.
This time, Charles didn't use his "gentleman's hands". He held the wine server firmly with both hands, even... a little hard.
Sijiu blinked, and as Charles moved forward, he put his mouth close to his ear, "Charles, are you feeling sorry for me?"
Charles paused for a moment, then continued walking as if he had heard nothing.
"Don't feel sorry for me."
The girl's voice even had a chuckle in it, which made Charles feel even more sad.
"I never thought I could wear such fine clothes. Just like before, I never thought I could go to the palace, live in such beautiful rooms, and eat such delicious food.
There is nothing to be dissatisfied with.
Besides, if sacrificing me can bring peace and happiness to everyone, why wouldn't I want to?"
Her voice was very soft, but Charles caught every word accurately.
"The world kisses me with pain, and I respond with song." She laughed. "After all, the best Charles in the world once said that I am the bravest girl."
At this moment, Charles really wanted to turn back regardless of everything.
System: Why flirt with her if you don’t marry her. What a scumbag.
