The Round Table and the Twelve Knights (81)



Wang Zirui glanced at the bowl of cold seafood porridge on the table, feeling helpless.

Although he knew Xiaojiu would definitely be angry with him, he didn't expect her to be so childish as to resort to a hunger strike.

"I haven't eaten for a whole day and night, Xiaojiu. Are you torturing yourself like this just to make me feel bad?"

Although Sijiu pretended to be on a 'hunger strike', he did not resist communication.

She just looked at him coldly, "There's no need to use the word 'heartache' for the relationship between us. Besides..."

She curled her lips in a mocking tone, "Why do you think I can safely eat what you handed to me?"

Although these words were spoken calmly, they were quite hurtful. Of course, Si Jiu was just poking at Wang Zirui's lungs.

She believes that although she is not extremely smart, her judgment of people has never been wrong. She has had a very keen intuition about people since she was a child. There are not many people who can naturally gain her sense of closeness, and Wang Zirui has a place among them.

But she could never have imagined that she and Wang Zirui would end up like this.

She didn't even know Wang Zirui's purpose.

No matter what a person does, there is always a purpose, right?

But Wang Zirui locked her up here, and made no demands on her or her family. He even treated her the same as always...

No, the attitude is still different.

Although Wang Zirui had a good relationship with her in the past, it was the way good friends get along, and they were very tactful.

The way Wang Zirui treats her now... can't be said to be intimate or lusty, but it's just that he goes a little too far.

For example, at this moment, when he heard her say this, instead of getting angry, he showed a wronged and pitiful expression. He rubbed against her like a big, disliked puppy, squatted in front of her and looked up at her, "How can you not eat and drink water? It will be very uncomfortable. How can I not feel distressed? I feel very distressed."

Si Jiu didn't know what method he used to make her still in a state of weakness in her hands and feet, so she was just sitting loosely in the chair, with her head leaning back on the backrest. Coupled with hunger and lack of water, and perhaps the depression and anxiety in her heart, she looked very fragile.

Sickly and pale.

Wang Zirui placed his hands on her knees and frowned, "I don't like seeing you so listless. Can you eat?"

Not eating for a day wouldn't actually cause such a serious problem, but he looked as if Sijiu had been on a hunger strike for a week and was almost terminally ill. His eyes were even a little red, and he looked like he was about to cry.

Si Jiuqi laughed, "Isn't my weak appearance due to you? You gave me the drug."

Wang Zirui's face turned pale. He bit his lips hard and whispered, "I'm afraid you'll hurt yourself. Besides, you're so strong. If you resist me, I don't want to hurt you."

Sijiu: "..."

She really couldn't understand Wang Zirui's train of thought. She just felt that his way of thinking seemed sick.

But then again, if he wasn't sick, why would he do something like drugging, kidnapping, and placing someone under house arrest?

She closed her eyes tightly, trying to calm herself down and not try to convince people with mental illnesses with her own opinions.

"Then can you tell me what you want to do by making me like this?"

Sijiu noticed that Wang Zirui's gaze evaded for a moment, but he quickly concealed it.

"It's not the time yet. When the time comes, I will tell you."

No matter how she listened, she felt that his tone showed that he didn't want to hurt her at all. Thinking back to when she was kidnapped by Xie Yu and the others, they kept saying they would protect her. Si Jiu's heart moved, and she looked at Wang Zirui intently, "Is it because you discovered some hidden danger around me that you want to protect me?"
