At this moment, Szelot was in an extremely heavy mood, with self-blame and regret flooding his heart like a tide. He could not imagine that the noble prince had endured so much pain and suffering after losing his memory.
If he had been able to see through that it was just a puppet, perhaps he could have found the real prince in time and prevented him from suffering outside for so long. However, now, everything is too late.
Szelot felt that he was the most derelict knight in history. He had vowed to protect His Royal Highness the Prince, but he had failed to fulfill his responsibilities.
"If I had discovered it was fake earlier... you wouldn't have suffered all this..."
However, Xie Qi looked at his self-blaming eyes, hugged him distressedly, and comforted him softly: "This is not your fault. The Queen's puppet magic is hard to distinguish between anyone else in the world. Your father can't see it, let alone you. Si Ze, you were just a child at the time. Don't blame everything on yourself."
"But I haven't fulfilled my responsibilities as a knight..."
Hearing this, Xie Qi pushed him away from his arms, then tightly grasped his shoulders with both hands, stared straight into his eyes, and said to him very seriously and earnestly: "Si Ze, we have already started a relationship, so there is no need to distinguish between knights and princes. Besides, you are my wife now. When it comes to responsibility, of course I am responsible for you."
Szelote was a little dazed by what he said. He stared at him with his big eyes, muttering to himself, "...but..."
However, before Szelot could finish what he wanted to say, Xie Qi suddenly cried out "Ouch" and pretended to be in pain, trying to attract Szelot's attention and successfully change the subject.
Hearing Xie Qi's voice, Szelote immediately became nervous and asked hurriedly, "What's wrong with you?"
Xie Qi frowned and said in pain: "Wife, I am still injured. I was beaten so badly by Xie Nuoke before. I am covered in dust. I want to take a shower, but my hands hurt. Can you help me..."
Before he could even utter the word "wash", Szelote had already impatiently stretched out a hand and gently placed it on his chest. Then a faint light moved across Xie Qi's body.
At this moment, Szelote seemed extremely anxious, and he kept muttering, "I should have discovered it earlier... I should have treated you earlier..."
"Stop!" Xie Qi quickly grabbed the other person's hand that was casting healing magic and said, "These injuries are just superficial. They're not a big deal. That's not what I want to talk about..."
"What is that?" Szelot asked in confusion.
Xie Qi sighed, but didn't say what it was. Instead, he slowly stood up and said, "It's okay. I'm going to take a shower. You wait here for me."
All the injuries on his body have been healed, so what reason does he have to take his wife into the bathroom?
However, Szelote suddenly stood up, walked towards Xie Qi, and said, "I'll help you."
Xie Qi raised his eyebrows in surprise at this sentence. He looked at Szelote who was getting closer and closer and asked, "Can you help me? My injuries are all healed."
"What does this have to do with the injury? It's only natural for me to help you." Szelote's eyes were gentle but firm. Before Xie Qi could react, Szelote pulled him towards the bathroom.
"Hey, wait!" Xie Qi shouted hurriedly, a hint of panic in his voice. But Szelote seemed to have heard nothing and still firmly pulled him into the bathroom.
Xie Qi's heartbeat instantly accelerated, and a blush appeared on his face. He was secretly delighted and couldn't help but say to 948 proudly, "My wife really is greedy for my body..."
However, 948 couldn't bear to see Xie Qi so complacent, so he picked up the Saint Kaya City Knight's Code and read it aloud: "Knight's Code Article 71: Serve the Prince with all your heart while he bathes and changes clothes. This includes preparing all necessary items, ensuring the water temperature is appropriate and the environment is comfortable, and standing by while the Prince bathes, ready to listen at any time... Oops..."
Xie Qi grabbed the spoiling 948, threw him behind him, and then slammed the bathroom door shut.
What chivalrous code? Who cares about the prince knight in the bathroom? Xie Qi has his own rhythm.
After two hours, Xie Qi finally took the lead with satisfaction, taking Szelote, who had also taken a bath.
Although he didn't do anything, he still touched everything he should have touched. Xie Qi had no plans to do anything today. After all, for Szelote, the amount of information today was a bit too much.
At this moment, the two of them were lying on the narrow bed, facing each other, looking into each other's eyes, and holding each other's hands tightly, as if this could bring a sense of security to each other.
The room was pitch black, with only the faint light filtering through the curtains illuminating their faces. Their voices were low and subtle, as if they were afraid of being heard.
"I don't know who I can trust..." There was a hint of confusion in Si Ze's eyes.
"Xie Teming is too hypocritical. He seems to be able to establish good relationships with everyone and is unpredictable. It's risky if you tell anyone. I can't let you fall into such a dangerous situation..." There was obvious uneasiness in Si Ze's tone.
"You don't believe your father either?"
"I believe him, but I don't believe myself..."
"It's okay. If you're afraid, then we four will know first."
"Can we...really do it? He's the Demon King, and we have no idea how Xie Teming will remove the seal. We don't even know when he will remove the seal..."
