The fierce, arrogant bad boy, Jiang Si, stared blankly at the man in front of her with his mouth slightly agape. His features were distinct, he always had a stoic expression, and he was always nitpicking the details and explaining the law to others. Her heart was pounding, and it took her a long time to find her voice: "You are the marshal of the empire, a prince. Shouldn't you put the country first?"
Agares stopped rubbing her head and solemnly hummed in agreement: "I am the marshal of the empire, a prince, but I am also your husband. National interests come first. As long as you do not do anything to harm the empire, your interests are above all else in my eyes!"
Jiang Si once again posed a tricky question, probing Agares' bottom line: "What if I do something that harms the Empire? How will you deal with me?"
Agares' dark eyes flickered, and the hand that was rubbing her head slowly slid down to her neck. His voice was rigid and emotionless as he said, "I am your guardian. Under my guardianship, you did something that harmed the Empire. I am the first person to be punished by the Empire's laws, and you are the second!"
"As an imperial enforcer, I have knowingly broken the law and failed to properly supervise you. I will apply to the Imperial Supreme Court for the death penalty. Before I execute you, I will finish you off first!"
"Cough cough!" Jiang Si choked on her own saliva.
This damn straight man, when did he become gay and start flirting?
It sounds terrifying, and it inexplicably makes your heart pound uncontrollably.
Ptooey!
The key point isn't flirting, but rather that, according to him, as long as it doesn't harm the interests of the empire, even if she causes a major disaster, he'll cover for her.
Agares's hand, which was on her neck, moved to her back. With a cold, handsome face, he gently patted her back to help her catch her breath.
Jiang Si coughed several times, then stopped. She raised her head and stared intently at Agares, or rather, at his lips, and asked with particular concern, "In that case, what are you going to do with the cat you keep?"
A smile flickered across Agares' dark eyes. He pretended to ponder for a long time before finally saying, "What do you suggest we do?"
“I said…” Jiang Si’s words had barely left her mouth when she felt a sharp pain in her chest and a surge of blood in her throat. Her words stopped abruptly. She covered her mouth with one hand, pushed Agares away, jumped off the sofa, and rushed to the bathroom.
Agares was caught off guard by the push and almost fell. When she came to her senses, she heard a bang as the bathroom door slammed shut.
Agares strode quickly to the bathroom door and heard the sound of running water and soft coughing coming from inside.
The first thing Jiang Si did when she rushed to the bathroom was to turn on the tap and the shower. The sound of the rushing water drowned out the sound of her vomiting blood.
Crimson blood was vomited into the toilet. The hand that was supporting itself on the toilet had white fingertips and bulging veins on the back of the hand.
After vomiting.
She slumped to the ground, leaning against the toilet, her face pale, and cursed, "Bastard!"
If the zombie virus in the body is not suppressed, it will spread everywhere and crawl into the heart and brain.
"Knock, knock, knock!" Three knocks sounded from outside, followed by Agares's voice: "Come out, I want to know what's wrong with you?"
Jiang Si suppressed her pounding heart, wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and said in a clear voice, "It's nothing, I just need to use the restroom. I need to make the bed a bit, I need a soft blanket. I'm going to take a shower and go to sleep later!"
A faint scent of herbs wafted from the bathroom. Agares frowned: "Besides your wrist injury, are you sure you have no other injuries?"
Jiang Si replied, "No, if you don't believe me, I'll take off all my clothes and you can come in and check!"
Agares, standing outside the door, immediately took a step back. The large wolfhound turned into an innocent little puppy, his breathing quickening as he faced his little wife's invitation: "No need. You said you weren't injured, I believe you. I'll make your bed now!"
"Thank you, honey!" Jiang Si's clear voice deliberately added a little extra tone at the end, making it sound like she was being coquettish.
Agares blushed unconsciously, her ears turning red. She turned around, walked to the bedside, took out a soft quilt from her spatial storage, and spread it out.
In the bathroom, Jiang Si took out a jar containing Shu Xubai's heart's blood from her spatial storage. She opened the jar, and a strong smell of blood wafted out.
Jiang Si pinched her nose and drank a vial of blood.
The taste of blood filled her throat, and she forced herself to hold back from vomiting.
Then she took out the box containing her beloved child.
With her heart and flesh dripping with blood, Jiang Si frowned deeply, unable to bring herself to eat it, and stuffed it back into the spatial button.
Then they scooped out the large basin containing the crystal nuclei and placed it under the shower, turning the shower water on full blast.
Washing away the blood and bits of flesh from the crystal core.
Before long, the crystal nuclei in the large basin revealed their true colors, displaying a dazzling array of colors.
Jiang Sisheng took off her clothes and threw them on the sink. Naked, she walked under the shower, squatted in front of the large basin, and popped out a crystal core of level 8 or higher, crushed it, and absorbed the energy inside.
In an instant, she crushed hundreds of crystal cores of level 8 or above, and her pale face, which had been pale from spitting blood, regained its color.
She used her healing mental energy to scan her body and found that the zombie poison was still minimal and wouldn't cause her to mutate. Only then did she put the basin containing the crystal core into her spatial storage, take out her toiletries, and begin taking a shower.
45 minutes later.
Jiang Si, wearing a lace slip dress and with her half-dry, fluffy, and messy hair, opened the bathroom door and came out.
Agares, who was waiting for her at the door, suddenly turned around, his ears and neck red, his back to her, his voice deep and hoarse: "The bed is made, you go to sleep first, I'm going to find your parents, and once I find them, we'll set sail!"
Without waiting for his wife's reply, he walked quickly towards the door, his steps a little unsteady. Just as his hand touched the doorknob, he heard his wife's soft, sweet voice: "Honey, besides my wrists, fingers, and legs, I also have cuts. Don't go, let me see!"
