Chapter 344 Things are complicated
After saying that, without waiting for Sikong Jin's reply, he turned around and ran away immediately, faster than a rabbit!
After a simple breakfast, Lord Sikong headed directly towards the central military camp of Xingqitian.
"Ajin, you've arrived! The master was just about to send someone to find you!"
As soon as Sikong Jin entered the tent, she heard Ji Wuge's voice. Sikong Jin looked up and saw that there were already quite a few people waiting in the tent.
"Sorry, I'm late!"
Sikong Jin smiled apologetically and was about to go inside when she suddenly heard footsteps behind her, followed by the respectful voice of a guard—
"I have met Her Royal Highness the Princess!"
It is a painting by Xing Fu!
For a split second, Sikong Jin subconsciously turned her head and looked towards the doorway. There she saw Xing Fuhua, dressed in a light blue dress, elegant and beautiful, slowly walking in...
She looked very haggard, with red and swollen eyes, a pale face, and a somewhat dazed expression. She looked so fragile that it made one's heart ache. Sikong Jin could already imagine that after going back last night, this little girl probably hid under the covers and cried for a long time.
"This humble official greets Your Highness..."
Just as Xing Fuhua approached, Sikong Jin was about to bow, but Xing Fuhua didn't even glance at her and walked straight ahead, leaving Sikong Jin with only a wry smile and no choice but to withdraw her gesture.
"What's wrong? Is something the matter? Did you two have a fight last night?"
The sharp-eyed Ji Wuge immediately noticed that something was wrong between the two. If it were any other time, Xing Fuhua would have already gently surrounded Sikong Jin, calling out "Brother Jin, Brother Jin". But now, Xing Fuhua's eyes were swollen like walnuts, and she was very indifferent to Sikong Jin, while Sikong Jin just kept smiling bitterly. It was obvious that something was fishy!
"Did you piss her off? Even someone as gentle as the princess can be provoked like this by you, which means you must have made some unforgivable mistake. Tell me, maybe I can even give you some advice!"
Seeing Sikong Jin's evasive gaze, Ji Wuge couldn't help but smile.
Sikong Jin lowered her head somewhat guiltily, touched her nose, and remained silent.
Ji Wuge laughed loudly, "Ajin, it's rare to see you so helpless. I remember how you taught that bastard Tang Jingyao to woo Lan Zixi back in Malan City? How did you teach Tang Jingyao? Hmm... Gently touch Lan Zixi's hand, first give her a kiss on the back of her hand, then say to her, 'Zixi, I've admired you for a long time, and I want to take care of you for the rest of my life! From now on, I will only love you, pamper you, and cherish you. I will never lie to you, and I will do everything I promise you. Every word I say to you is the truth... I will love you for eternity, until the seas dry up and the rocks crumble, until death do us part...' It's so cheesy! If you said these words to the princess, I guarantee that nothing would happen between you and the princess..."
Upon hearing this, Sikong Jin glared at Ji Wuge and said, "What do you know? Do you think someone as low-key, profound, and reserved as me is like Tang Jingyao, a scoundrel who uses his words to win a girl's heart? Besides, only Tang Jingyao and Lan Zixi, that... that... couple, could say such cheesy things."
"Get lost! Low-key, profound, and reserved? Do you even deserve those words? What did Tang Jingyao do to make you so angry? Oh, right, he wrote to me a few days ago asking if I saw you so you could settle that interest with him. It's been half a year, and he hasn't settled it even once. He's getting his allowance from his wife, Lan Zixi! Women these days are something else. Tang Jingyao has been trained by Zixi into a loyal dog these past few years, so he hands over his entire salary. You'd better be careful in the future, don't end up like him, otherwise where will we get the money to pay for our meals and entertainment? Oh, I'm getting off-topic. We were just talking about you and the princess, what happened between you two…"
Ji Wuge glanced at Sikong Jin and rambled on for a long time, only to be interrupted by Sikong Jin's shocking remark—
"Alright, stop talking about it, I'm done with the princess!"
Sikong Jin gave a somewhat awkward, bitter smile. As she spoke, she subconsciously glanced at the pale blue figure in front of her, only to find that Xing Fuhua ignored her completely, treating her as if she were invisible.
It seems he hates her!
However, she also understood. If this had happened to her, Sikong Jin, she might have directly swung her sword at that person! Therefore, no matter what Xing Fuhua was like, she had no reason to blame her.
Sikong Jin's words struck Ji Wuge like a thunderbolt. He stared at Sikong Jin in disbelief and asked in surprise, "What did you say? What do you mean?"
"It means exactly what it says, don't you understand? It means there's no possibility between us!"
Sikong Jin sighed inwardly, her voice low, "Brother, Hua'er has long regarded you as her own brother. You must give her a lot of guidance. Women are always prone to overthinking at this time, and I'm very worried about her. So I'm asking you to take good care of her for me!"
Upon hearing this, Ji Wuge immediately sensed something was very wrong. He subconsciously looked up at Xing Fuhua in front of him and found her sitting down next to Xing Qitian with a haggard look and a dazed expression. He couldn't help but ask, "What's going on? Didn't you do something to her? The princess looks very strange! Maybe she cried all night. What's wrong with you?"
Ji Wuge naturally knew Xing Fuhua's personality; this woman was usually quite strong. Despite her seemingly gentle and weak appearance, she had never complained or even frowned during her long stay at the Hangu Pass border, no matter how hard or tiring it was. But now she looked like this, and Ji Wuge knew without even guessing that something must have happened to Sikong Jin.
Because, the only person in the world who could make Xing Fuhua look like this and shed tears like this is probably Sikong Jin.
"What kind of look is that? As if I'm some heinous criminal! This is a complicated matter, I'll explain it to you later! I haven't even organized my thoughts on how to explain it to you yet... ugh!"
Before Sikong Jin could finish speaking, Ji Wuge slapped her shoulder hard with his large hand, warning her in a low voice, "I'm telling you, since you know the princess treats me like her own brother, don't let me find out you've done anything to betray her, or I'll beat you up!"
Sikong Jin chuckled dryly a few times, shrank back, and said softly, "I've already done what I was supposed to do to apologize to her..."
"What did you say?"
"Oh, I was saying I think the adults look really handsome today!"
