It was already late when Si Muqiao brought Princess Kangjia back to the cold palace.
After sending away Murong Qingli, who was reluctant to leave and had a resentful look in his eyes, Simuqiao looked at Princess Kang Jia and spoke.
"Okay, it's getting late. I've asked someone to prepare hot water in advance. Go wash up first."
"No, I feel weak all over." Princess Kangjia shook her head without thinking.
"Oh? Is that so?" After asking, Si Muqiao reached out and pinched Princess Kangjia's thigh.
She was very strong, and even if she held back a little, she still pinched Princess Kangjia so hard that she began to doubt her life.
Princess Kangjia, who was originally sitting there like a cabbage hit by frost, suddenly jumped like a tiger.
“Hiss, ahhh!!”
"Si Muqiao, do you want to strangle me to death?" Princess Kang Jia glared at him angrily.
"Look, I see you've recovered quite well! You're full of energy!"
"Okay, stop pretending and go take a shower."
"I know you are afraid, so I have arranged for someone to wait on you."
"Oh, okay, I got it." Princess Kangjia responded, stood up and walked out under the leadership of Tangyuan.
When she was almost at the door, she suddenly turned back and said.
"Si Muqiao, I have a question..."
"Hmm? Go ahead."
"When you were beating someone, where did you get the brick from?"
"What brick? What about hitting someone? Who hit someone? Don't you dare to slander me for no reason!"
"How could someone as kind and weak as me do such a thing?"
"I can only convince others with my virtue." Si Muqiao lied seriously.
“……”Princess Kangjia.
"Go take a shower first. After you're done, if you behave well, I can consider teaching you a little of my peerless divine principles."
"Really? Okay!" Princess Kang Jia heard this and immediately left happily.
"..."Si Muqiao.
This poor child is so gullible.
Bah, how can things between intellectuals be lies?
This is a scam at best.
That’s not right. It should be said that it is cultural exchange.
Yeah, that's fine.
After Si Muqiao finished muttering, he summoned 233.
"Tongzi, is my side quest considered completed?"
"Yes, congratulations, dear host. Your side quest has been completed and you will get a chance to draw a lottery. Do you want to draw now?"
"Extract." Si Muqiao said.
"Okay."
"Congratulations, host, for obtaining a bad luck charm."
"Note: A bad luck charm is a charm that can bring great misfortune to the user."
"How to use: Just stick it on the user."
"Effective duration: eight hours."
"Sou Ga! I got it~" Si Muqiao put it away and continued to ask.
"Tongzi, I still can't figure out why Princess Kangjia can have such a great influence after turning evil."
"Could it be that she has a hidden identity?"
"I'm sorry, dear host. The system cannot reveal the secrets. Please understand." When 233 said this, his voice became much more serious.
"Oh, I see. Judging from what you said, I guess I guessed right."
“…”233.
This host is so annoying.
"Host, it's getting late. You should get some rest. 233 should go study. Goodbye."
"Hey, you're studying so late at night? Is your system that complicated?"
Faced with Si Muqiao's question, 233 did not answer.
Si Muqiao didn't care. After lying down, she continued to watch her TV series "Legend of Zhen Huan".
After chasing for only about five minutes, Princess Kang Jia's voice appeared again.
"Si Muqiao, I'm done washing. What is this peerless divine principle you just mentioned?"
After meeting Princess Kangjia's wet, eager eyes, Si Muqiao calmly lifted the quilt and stood up, pointing calmly at the water on the bedside table.
"I'm thirsty."
"Here, here you go, drink it quickly!" Princess Kang Jia immediately reached out and handed her the glass of water.
After drinking the water, she frowned slightly again.
"I've used up a lot of energy in my trip out of the palace. I think I'm hungry."
"No, I have to have a midnight snack first, then I can talk about it."
"Well, I'm hungry too, let's go together."
"Si Muqiao, I want to eat that hot pot!"
"If not, stewed chicken with potatoes, braised fish fillets, and milk tea will also be fine." Princess Kangjia's eyes lit up.
“???” Si Muqiao.
At this time, Princess Kangjia should have said, "What do you want to eat? I'll make it for you."
How come her appetite is so good?
"I haven't eaten anything since I left your palace. I'm really hungry."
"I'm so hungry."
Seeing that Si Muqiao did not reply, Princess Kang Jia's little face showed a pitiful expression again.
"It's not impossible, but you have to pay!" Si Muqiao.
"What?"
"Princess Kangjia, we are not that close. It was only not long ago that you came to pick a fight."
"You are eating and living at my place now, shouldn't you pay for it?"
"Oh, I'll pay for it. It's not like I don't have money!"
"Okay, come, Princess Kangjia, please sit down first. I'll have someone bring some midnight snacks."
When he heard that there was silver, Si Muqiao immediately became happy.
After the two of them finished their meal sitting face to face, Si Muqiao burped with great satisfaction, then said she was going out to digest the food.
Princess Kangjia followed without thinking.
The sky outside was dark, but it was dotted with a crescent moon and many stars.
With the breeze blowing on his face and the temperature being just right, Si Muqiao felt that it was quite comfortable to walk outside.
"Do you still want to participate in the hunting tomorrow?" Si Muqiao asked.
"Of course! I, Kang Jia, must do what I said." Princess Kang Jia said.
"But don't worry, since you don't want to compete with me, I won't force you."
"What? Don't you want to leave a good impression in your Majesty brother's heart?" Si Muqiao looked at her with amusement.
"Si Muqiao. Actually...I may have recognized the wrong person all these years."
"The reason why I have liked your majesty's brother for so many years is because he saved my life when I was a child."
"I have always felt that if someone saves my life, I should repay them with my own life."
"But today he told me that he never liked me, and the person who saved me before was not him, but Feng Liuyu."
"He treats me like a snake and scorpion, yet he is so attached to you."
"I can see that the person he really likes and cares about has always been you."
"So, from now on, I'll give up on him."
"From now on, I, Kangjia, will no longer like your majesty brother."
After Princess Kang Jia finished speaking, she turned around and looked at Si Muqiao.
She thought that Simuqiao would be happy, pleased, or relieved after hearing her heartfelt words.
But who would have thought that Si Muqiao would look at her with an inquiring expression and ask.
"Princess Kangjia, if... the person who saved you back then was an ugly freak, would you still be willing to marry him?"
"You said that because your Majesty is good-looking, right?"
"If the person who saved you was really an ugly one, would you tell him that you can't repay him for saving your life, and you can only repay him by working like a cow or a horse in your next life?"
