Chapter 88 Eleven Are you angry with me?
Xiao Jiwu was sitting at his desk reading a letter. When he heard the voice, he looked up at Yun Qingshi and asked calmly:
"Normally, I don't see you being so enthusiastic. You even refused to accompany me to a play. Why did you suddenly change your attitude today? You're even willing to go hunting for black foxes. Do you know that black foxes live in the snowy plains of the far north? It would take three days to travel there from the capital without rest. Keeping watch for black foxes is even more tiring."
Yun Qingshi: ...
Damn, how should he answer this?
He can't say that he's been bored lately and wants to find something to do!
Prince Xiao, who couldn't wait for an answer, quickly urged: "Huh? Why is Eleven silent again?"
Yun Qingshi thought anxiously for a while before finally finding a somewhat lame excuse. He said, "I just feel that I've been slacking off these days, so I want to do something for His Majesty. Mr. Chu's mother saved His Majesty's life, and as His Majesty's secret guard, I should share His Majesty's worries."
Hearing this, Xiao Jiwu stared at the young man in silence, clearly unconvinced. After a moment, he lowered his eyes before speaking again, saying, "I accept Eleven's kindness, but I will leave this matter to someone else."
Yun Qingshi couldn't help but frown after hearing this. He became even more anxious for a moment and couldn't help but ask anxiously: "Why don't you let me go?"
After he finished speaking, he realized that his question was not appropriate, so he quickly added: "Could it be that the prince still does not trust his subordinates?"
Prince Xiao remained calm and composed, and quickly replied without even looking up, "I trust Eleven, but if Eleven leaves, who will protect me?"
Yun Qingshi:???
Yun Qingshi was speechless. Can this be called a reason?
Don't be too obvious in your excuses!
Xiao Jiwu is so powerful that he still needs protection?
Besides, he is not the only secret guard!
Yun Qingshi's frown deepened, and he couldn't help but retort, "Your Highness has twelve personal bodyguards alone. He could definitely find someone else to protect him. Why does he have to act like he can't do without his subordinates?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Jiwu raised his eyes again and looked at Yun Qingshi, but said without hesitation: "If I say no, it means no, you can't go."
Yun Qingshi looked steadily into Xiao Jiwu's eyes, trying to find some room for negotiation.
But he failed, and Xiao Jiwu obviously did not want to negotiate.
Realizing this, Yun Qingshi lowered his eyes, unable to hide his disappointment.
He really didn't expect it to be like this, he had been looking forward to it for so long.
He was originally very sure that this plot would happen, but he didn't expect the result to be like this.
After a while, Yun Qingshi returned to lying on the couch, his whole body exuding a depressed aura.
He couldn't help but wonder what his future would be like if he really couldn't find an opportunity.
Be a secret guard forever, or be Xiao Jiwu's lover forever?
He doesn't want to, and he's unwilling to.
Or, there is still no way to escape a dead end...
After Zhao Mingde sent Chu Zhiyu away, he had already instructed the maids to prepare breakfast, but Yun Qingshi was unusually not even interested in eating.
It was not until Xiao Jiwu called him that he slowly stood up, walked to the table, sat down and looked at the food on the table.
But in the end, after looking through all the options, Yun Qingshi just picked up the chopsticks and put a piece of bamboo shoot into the bowl.
There was a table full of delicious food, but he didn't have much appetite.
Is this what it feels like to lose hope? Yun Qingshi couldn't help but wonder.
When Xiao Jiwu saw the depressed look on the young man's face, his eyes couldn't help but darken.
After a moment, he picked up a shrimp ball that Yun Qingshi usually loved to eat and put it in his bowl: "Don't just eat the vegetables, don't you like this?"
After Xiao Jiwu finished speaking, Yun Qingshi still did not speak, and did not even look up at His Royal Highness Prince Yi.
He didn't make any other movements, but he never touched the shrimp ball.
Until the end of breakfast, the shrimp ball was still lying in his bowl.
Prince Xiao looked at the only remaining shrimp balls, then looked at the young man, and couldn't help but pursed his lips...
————
For the next several hours, the two of them did not communicate with each other.
Xiao Jiwu thought he had spoiled Ying Shiyi to the extreme and he couldn't do more.
Yun Qingshi just lay quietly on the couch reading the storybook, even though he couldn't concentrate at all.
My mind is in a mess and I can't accomplish anything.
That night, the two of them finished their dinner in silence and washed up separately.
Even when applying medicine to Yun Qingshi, the two did not have any further communication.
Xiao Jiwu was still doing something behind the desk, and Yun Qingshi didn't notice.
But when Yun Qingshi took off her hair crown in front of the mirror and went to the couch to sleep, she hesitated for a long time.
In the end, Yun Qingshi became more and more angry the more he thought about it, so he simply picked up his quilt and went to the couch in silence.
Then he moved the small table on the couch to another place.
In this way, the couch looked no different from a single bed, so Yun Qingshi took off his boots and lay down on it calmly.
His hands were folded on his abdomen, and he looked very peaceful.
From today on, he and Xiao Jiwu will sleep in separate beds.
He was really angry. Even if it was a secret guard or a mistress, he couldn't deny them any freedom!
How can he get away with this? It's so annoying!
When Prince Xiao saw this scene, he could no longer hold back and stood up and walked to the couch.
In fact, Yun Qingshi had already heard it when Xiao Jiwu walked over, but he still closed his eyes and pretended not to know.
Until Xiao Jiwu broke the silence.
Xiao Jiwu: "Is Eleven angry with me?"
Hearing this, Yun Qingshi had no choice but to open his eyes. Then he said, "No, I'm just a secret guard. I have no right to be angry."
Xiao Jiwu: ...
Prince Xiao was speechless for a rare moment. After a pause, he slowly sat down beside the couch before speaking again. He asked, "Does Eleven really want to go?"
Yun Qingshi answered confidently: "Yes."
He didn't just want to go there; it was his hope for a happy life.
After hearing this, Prince Xiao pursed his lips, raised his hand to stroke the boy's fair cheek, and asked again: "If Eleven leaves, I have thought...what should I do?"
Yun Qingshi:???
Yun Qingshi was speechless, and was also abruptly defeated by anger.
What a stupid question!
You talk as if you can't live without him, isn't it just that you think he's handsome and you're attracted to him?
Although they are compatible in that aspect, what does Xiao Jiwu take him for?
In anger, Yun Qingshi blurted out: "If you think of it, go find someone else."
The moment Yun Qingshi finished speaking, Xiao Jiwu's eyes instantly turned cold, and his voice was frighteningly cold:
"Say that again."
