Amman never expected that the man in front of her would be His Highness the Prince.
When the prince was mentioned, Amman suddenly had a vague recollection of him.
A man riding on the back of a moon dragon?
She and her brother did beat him up and rob him of his purse.
If it weren't for that money bag, they wouldn't have been able to buy their current little home.
In short, Amman felt very guilty.
Sheri glanced at the guilty-looking Amman before getting back to business.
"Jessica, I never expected you to live here."
Jessica used to be aloof and almost otherworldly. Thinking of the insults she had just heard, She-Ra couldn't help but smile. Even the saintess had fallen.
However, this kind of saintess feels more human.
Being more down-to-earth might make it more popular.
"You said you came to see me, what do you want with me?"
If it were anyone else, Jessica wouldn't want to pay them any attention, but Prince She-Ra was different. Back in the Temple of the Saintess, Prince She-Ra had always spoken up for her, so she could be considered to have done him a favor.
"I've come to take you back to the Temple of the Holy Maiden and reclaim your position as Holy Maiden."
The conversation between the two left Amman somewhat dazed.
This is a prince and a saint, it feels like I'm from a world far removed from hers.
Amman ruffled her hair again.
There was some unease on his face.
"What's wrong?"
As soon as Ning Hong came out, she saw Anman wreaking havoc on her red hair again, and couldn't help but take out a comb and tidy up her hair.
Seeing that Anman's gaze kept drifting over there, lingering on the two people talking, Ning Hong flicked her head hard.
"I suddenly felt like Jessica and I were from two different worlds."
"Brother, will Jessica leave here?"
"Probably," Ning Hong said frankly. "Since she is the Holy Maiden, she will eventually have to go back and inherit the position of Holy Maiden."
"What's so good about the position of saintess?"
Amman pouted.
However, if Jessica makes a decision, she won't stop her.
At the end of the conversation, Jessica nodded with a grim expression, while She-Ra smiled, making the situation quite clear.
Even without listening specifically, Ning Hong could guess that Jessica had been persuaded by this man.
"Brother Ze, Anman, it's me?"
How could she tell them that she was leaving?
She was surprised when Shirley suddenly showed up at her door.
After leaving the Temple of the Saintess, she never thought she would ever return. However, the eldest and third princes presented all the evidence of Lia's crimes to her. If she returned, she could reclaim her position as the Saintess and take revenge on Lia.
This really appealed to her.
She originally thought she could let go of her hatred for Leah and live a good life here.
It seems she overestimated herself.
Moreover, the Holy Maiden Temple has been thrown into chaos because of Lia, and she cannot allow her master's efforts to be ruined.
"When are you leaving?" Ning Hong asked, taking Anman's hand. Anman lowered her head and remained silent.
"tomorrow."
Jessica really wanted to hug Amman.
She reached out and pulled Amman's slender body into her arms.
"Anman, I will miss you very much." She wanted to take Anman and Zege with her, but she didn't know if she could succeed. If she couldn't, wouldn't that harm Anman and Zege? "I will come to get you when I regain my identity as the Holy Maiden."
“No need. Although the town is remote, this is my home, and I don’t want to leave.” Ning Hong directly refused Jessica’s offer.
"Brother Ze?"
Is Brother Ze angry?
Jessica was heartbroken. Was she going to lose them? After two years of living together, she had long considered them her true family.
It's even more important than family members far away in the capital.
"Anman, Brother Ze, what happened to me?!"
"Alright, don't overthink it. We don't mean anything by it, we just don't want to leave here. If you have time, you can come back to see us." Ning Hong patted Jessica's shoulder, and even Anman reached out and patted her on the back.
"I'll miss you too."
Amman said sullenly.
"Alright, you've all said goodbye. Now it's my turn, right?"
Sheri stepped forward and separated Jessica and Amman.
"Your turn?" Jessica was a little surprised. "You know them?"
"Of course we know each other."
Sheri chuckled softly, "Didn't I just say? I was looking for you, and while I was at it, I was looking for my little wildcat." Sheri grabbed Aman's hand, "Didn't you say last time that I was your man? How come you just turned around and left me behind? Aren't you afraid I'll get hurt?"
"That was just a bunch of rabble. If I hadn't been drugged, it would have been difficult for them to hurt me. I feel that your strength is above mine, and those people can't do anything to you." But in the end, she was just feeling guilty and deliberately left those enemies to this man in order to escape.
"Alright, I don't blame you. I am your man after all, and I have to protect you."
Sheri reached out and touched Amman's thin shoulder.
Seeing Amman nod, looking like he agreed with him, he couldn't help but curl up the corners of his lips again.
This girl is indeed lovely, no wonder Jessica likes her so much.
When Jessica was in the capital, she always seemed to have a cold face and never interacted with any men or women. Unexpectedly, she found a good friend in such a remote town.
"Wait, no, I have nothing to do with you." Amman suddenly came to his senses and pushed Siri away.
"How can it not be related? Didn't you admit it to people yourself?"
“That’s not the same. That was just, that was just something I said offhand.” Amman took a few steps back.
Amman stepped back, leaving Shire with no choice but to step forward. But before he could take a step, several vines sprouted from the ground and blocked his way.
"You?" Xi Rui looked at Ning Hongze with a complicated expression. Wasn't everyone saying he was an idiot? But looking at his eyes, he wasn't an idiot at all.
How could someone with such a calm and collected gaze be a fool? However, he didn't seem to be like this back then. Two years ago, he spoke haltingly and incoherently.
"What exactly happened? Amman, are you hiding something from your brother?"
“No, that’s a misunderstanding,” Amman hurriedly explained. “I was being harassed by Rock and was drugged, so I was weak all over. I could only pretend to say that he was my fiancé. I would only consider being with him if I could defeat him.”
"so what?"
“Rock and the others went after him, so I took the opportunity to escape.” Amman looked at Shiri. “I was wrong about this, and I apologize to you.”
"But you assaulted me; that was my first kiss."
