Chapter 260: Her Royal Highness the Sea Princess is a Heartthrob (45)
"I want a high salary."
Before leaving, Qiao Xi walked around the desk and came to Jue's side and made it clear that of course he could ask her to do something, but she was not a kind-hearted person.
Of course, you have to collect some corresponding compensation.
"It doesn't matter. I can give you whatever you want."
The lazy man leaning back in the chair looked at her leisurely, his deep eyes half smiling, and he was calm about it.
"Don't you want to show some sincerity?"
Qiao Xi frowned slightly. She didn't like daydreamers who only knew how to talk sweet words.
"A kiss in advance, then?"
When Jue's voice fell again, the slightly hoarse and low voice seemed to contain some inexplicable emotions, as if gradually revealing the desires hidden in the darkness shrouded in the night.
His gaze turned over.
Those beautiful yet deceptively heterochromatic eyes were churning with undercurrents, blatantly and unabashedly revealing a strong aggression. They were transforming into a greedy beast, devouring Qiao Xi inch by inch with their scorching gaze.
"……kiss?"
The moment their eyes met, the girl seemed to be attracted by the depth of his eyes, and fell into an endless abyss.
Jue put his arm around her waist.
The girl lost her balance and sat on the man's lap.
"You really haven't changed at all."
As if muttering to himself, he raised his hand and stroked Qiao Xi's hair. His movements were gentle and slow, and he was so cautious and careful, as if he was treating a precious and fragile item.
Qiao Xi was silent for a while before coming back to his senses.
The girl put her arm around Jue's neck and looked at the stern man in front of her. Her eyes gradually moved from his heroic eyebrows to his eyes that were staring deeply at her.
There were too many emotions in the man's deep eyes that she didn't understand.
Not the last time we met.
He was neither as sad as he was when he was desperate and decadent and almost gave up, nor was he the playboy who was full of vigor and vitality and always wanted to escape from reality and not face his responsibilities when we first met.
He is now.
It was polished by time, showing its edge, and then returning to silence and low profile. It was commanded from behind the scenes, and meticulously planned and laid out for thousands of years to develop to this point.
Become an existence that cannot be shaken by any race.
He could use force to make those races accept and obey him, but he could not truly buy anyone's heart. When he chose to take this path, he was destined to stand on the opposite side.
To most people, he is definitely the public enemy of the nobility.
It is the darkness that has descended upon this era, but for a small number of people who are not taken seriously, he is their salvation.
But even so.
Those people will still be afraid of him, and perhaps one day in the future they will pull him down from the altar out of fear.
I know the ending will be tragic, but if I could do it again, I would still choose this path.
"You know, an ordinary kiss can't buy me off."
Qiao Xi closed her beautiful eyes slightly and leaned lazily in the man's arms. She lowered her eyes and glanced at the white gloves the man was wearing.
The soft satin gloves outline the man's slender hands.
The tailored suit complemented his figure even more. Pinned on his chest was the medallion symbolizing his status as a leader of the imperial clan. The buttons were buttoned meticulously, giving off a sense of aloofness and abstinence.
"The kiss of the gods can bring blessings."
Jue lowered his eyes to look at her rebellious white little hands. The girl's soft fingertips were casually fiddling with the man's buttons.
And when I heard what he said.
Qiao Xi also paused, stopped and looked up at him.
Even in ancient texts, kissing is considered a sacred act. Before the gods, it represents a pledge of commitment to each other, as was the case with the ancient gods' kiss.
That's why.
Some special taboo abilities require a kiss to trigger, such as traveling through time and space. Now Zetsu has the power to travel through time and space, precisely because he has memories of this era.
I knew that my past self would meet Qiao Xi.
Therefore, an arrangement was left on the border battlefield, and a triggering medium that only Qiao Xi could discover.
When Qiao Xi of this era was born.
He already knew it as he was in the distant imperial clan, but he still needed to wait until the girl grew up and went to the border battlefield.
Before going to the border battlefield.
The girl had no memory of him and when Qiao Xi first touched his eyes and had her first memory, Jue, who was living in this era, also felt it.
To the back of the hands and heart.
History had not been altered, and Qiao Xi knew him. At that time, he had already sent Di Xin's formal invitation.
But it was just as he guessed.
The girl didn't come.
To Qiao Xi, they had just parted ways, but to Jue, he had been wandering alone in this long river of time for ten thousand years, and the waiting was long enough.
That's true.
It is a destined meeting and encounter.
The voice of the Little Black Cat System also sounded at this time.
[In fact, Jue was born for you. He does not exist in the plot. He is just waiting for your arrival, meeting you and then changing the world.]
So Jue's premonition was correct.
Qiao Xi is the only key that can unlock his door.
It was no longer a touch separated by thousands of years of time and space. The girl no longer had a strong breath of time lingering around her body, nor was she a translucent body without any temperature.
This touch.
More real than ever before.
He held the girl's cheeks carefully and cherishingly with his white-gloved hands, as if they were precious works of art.
The warm skin that could be felt even through gloves was a true confirmation that she was here.
The man's kiss was gentle.
He sucked it gently, savoring it and gradually exploring her feelings, but his heterochromatic eyes, which seemed to have the magical power to bewitch people, never took his eyes off her for a moment.
He didn't want to miss any changes in Qiao Xi.
A moist, soft warmth entangled them, a divine power silently transmitted as the warmth surged. The kiss was incredibly passionate, suffocating, yet even the warmth of every breath was tinged with sweetness.
At first taste, it feels like a light brush of feathers.
The plunder deepened again and again in the temptation, until this ambiguous factor contaminated this cold room.
His kiss was attentive.
It was no longer the fleeting touch like last time. This time, the concentration and many unfamiliar emotions made Qiao Xi narrow her eyes and look seriously at the cold man in front of her.
A dark color gradually spread from the depths of his pupils.
After several entanglements, they separated, and the influx of divine power gradually blended into her aura. An invisible sense of oppression lingered around her, exactly the same as Jue's.
"Is this a blessing?"
"Yes, it's done."
Qiao Xi was a little confused about the changes in her own aura. Her most intuitive feeling was that she felt like she could control the people of the imperial clan.
And the essence of the imperial family.
It turns out that they are just a small part of the power separated from Jue. They were given thoughts by Jue but they could only obey orders.
This imperial clan is actually more like an empty shell, with only Jue in control.
No wonder on the way here.
All the members of the imperial clan that he saw had dull expressions, and only those who were close to Jue showed some normal behavior.
Wait until she's adjusted.
Before letting her go, Jue also straightened out the wrinkles on the girl's skirt and her slightly messy hair.
"How does it feel?"
Qiao Xi also restrained her breath again, nodded and smiled, "I'm very satisfied with the advance. I'll be leaving first. Contact me if you need anything."
Jue slowly withdrew his hand: "Go."
