Busy with things to do every day.
There was no need to spend so much time and thought on him.
"Why so many whys?" Chen Zhiyi disagreed, her eyes calmly meeting his scrutinizing gaze. "You are my beastly husband. If you die casually, where will I put my face?"
"Besides, I just told Herbert that I will help you improve your ability level."
"This is not just for you, but for myself as well."
Seeing that he didn't move for a long time, she took the crystal from his hand, patted his shoulder, and said, "Lower yourself a little, I'll help you put it on."
Samuel obeyed and bent over to get closer to her.
Shen Zhiyi held the necklace, wrapped her arms around his neck, put her head back, and helped him put on the necklace intimately, like a hug.
Her warm breath sprayed on his neck, and brushed across his jaw and earlobes like a feather...
The aroma is so close.
Samuel lowered his eyelashes to hide the dark eddies in his eyes.
The fingertips hanging by his side slowly tightened.
"Okay." Shen Zhiyi had just let go of her hand when the man in front of her suddenly shook and leaned his whole body on her shoulder.
His arms subconsciously wrapped around her waist.
In just a moment, it opened.
"What's wrong with you?" Shen Zhiyi frowned and supported his arm.
Samus shook his head, stood up straight, and touched the crystal around his neck.
"No."
"It's just that this energy seems to be particularly compatible with me. Just now, for a moment, it seemed as if something was calling me."
"My head hurts a bit, so I couldn't stand steadily for a moment."
Samus pursed his lips and looked away awkwardly, "I didn't mean to hug you."
Shen Zhiyi looked at him and said nothing.
My heart skipped a beat.
It seems that the crystal is working.
She glanced at the black halo on the crystal and lowered her eyelashes.
It was she who instructed Ian to use his blood sample to create an energy field that could help him activate his ancient bloodline.
It was true that she wanted to help him improve his abilities.
It is also true that he wants to use his healing power to protect him.
The ultimate goal is to help him awaken his bloodline.
"Thank you." Samuel said awkwardly.
This was the first time he had felt kindness since he was born.
Although she may have ulterior motives.
He won't let go of all the abuses he suffered in the past so easily.
He didn't want to owe her anything.
He knew that her current situation was also very difficult, but she was still willing to give her energy to him.
He should say thank you.
Shen Zhiyi listened to his stiff tone and the unnatural expression on his face, and smiled: "If you want to thank someone, thank Ian. I just provided a little healing power."
"The crystal stone was made by him."
"Ian?" Samus's expression hardened, his thick brows furrowed. "Is he the male orc with gold-rimmed glasses who often follows the Lord?"
Shen Zhiyi pursed his lips, his smile deepening, “He is Xuetu.”
Snow rabbit...
Samus's eyes darkened and he pursed his lips. "Does the master like docile and obedient people?"
Otherwise, why would I keep him by my side all the time?
I heard that he is the most trusted confidant of the Lord.
The most trusted...
In the turbulent royal family struggle, she could trust this man. How deep must the emotions between them be, and how much tacit understanding others didn't know...
Samuel's breath cooled.
The energy stone on the neck emits a faint light.
A black aura lingers.
Shen Zhiyi didn't notice and shrugged, "As for subordinates, the more obedient they are, the better."
"Ian is patient, meticulous, and very capable. I find him very useful, so I naturally keep him by my side..."
The more Samuel listened, the uglier his expression became.
His face was gloomy, his muscles were tense, and his scales made a rustling sound.
Shen Zhiyi paused, then suddenly tilted his head and moved closer, carefully scanning his eyebrows.
"Are you...jealous?"
