Lord, your mask fell off

Chapter 1078 Strange Emotions Are Breeding

Pang Zhijing smiled blatantly and presumptuously, completely not noticing the increasingly gloomy face of the person standing on the shore.

Even those guards could not help but want to retreat when they felt the depressed mood of their prince, but in the end they still stood still and lowered their heads even lower, so as to avoid being hurt by Chi Yu, princess, take care!

It was only when the laughter made all sides quiet that Pang Zhijing finally came to her senses. She slowly supported her knees with her palms, and the figure of the person in front of her came into view little by little.

She suddenly felt that something was wrong, at this moment, she happened to meet Xiao Hou, his expressionless expression, without that warm and jade-like smile, the dark green cloak fluttering in the dark, the shadow of baring teeth and claws, more contrasted Knowing that this person was gloomy like a ghost, she swallowed subconsciously.

"That, that, I'm joking, you, are you okay?"

She stuttered when she was nervous. Although she despised her cowardice, a man who knows the current affairs is a hero, and showing weakness for a while is for a better rise in the future. She comforted herself like this.

Xiao Hou looked at her indifferently, "Princess is very elegant, but what I don't like the most is joking."

This voice is freezing to death!
Pang Zhijing shrank her neck, rubbed her arms with her hands, and laughed like a dog, "Okay, okay, I won't joke with you in the future, don't be as knowledgeable as me."

Xiao Hou's expression didn't ease because of her words, but when he stared at her at this moment, his eyes suddenly became weird.

Pang Zhijing didn't notice it at first, but then she felt something was wrong, and followed his gaze to look at herself.

Xia Tian's clothes were already thin, and after being so wet with water, they clinged to her body, exposing her exquisite curves, she let out a scream of "ah", and her whole body was buried in the water, only her head was exposed.

Xiao Hou was made tinnitus by her earth-shattering scream, but he also coughed low to avoid his sight.

Ahhhhh!She was so stupid that she didn't notice it. Fortunately, due to Xiao Hou's shock, the guards didn't raise their heads, and Pang Zhijing comforted her a little.It's just that she is very sure that she must be seen by Xiao Hou!
Just as she was staring at Xiao Hou angrily, she suddenly heard him say, "It's getting dark, if the princess wants to stay in the water, then I will not accompany you."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Hou turned around without hesitation.

"Hey, hey? I'm leaving now? Isn't that too ungentlemanly!" Seeing that he really left, leaving only the guards to watch over her, Pang Zhijing shouted immediately!He couldn't just let him go, otherwise she would be soaked, how could she get ashore!
Xiao Hou turned to look at her, and raised his eyebrows, "Gentleman demeanor? This word has some meaning."

Just when she thought he was going to leave without mercy again, she saw him put his hand on the belt, untied the cloak, held it in his hand, then bent down and put it on the ground, got up and strode towards the blazing fire. Go to the deep forest.

She had already walked a few steps before she realized that this was for her?
She blinked, then hurriedly climbed ashore, pulled up the cloak to cover herself.

I have to admit that although he looks sickly and thin, he is really tall. The hem of the cloak is folded on the ground, but with his body temperature, it is very warm, and there is also some herbal medicine in it fragrance.

She wrapped her cloak tightly and ran towards Xiao Hou without thinking.

"Wait, wait, I want to talk to you!"

Xiao Hou felt that his patience had been worn out by her, so he stopped, wanting to see what other tricks she had, and after a while he saw her staggering towards him, his frown suddenly relaxed up.

"What does the princess want to talk about?" As soon as the wind passed, the cold aura on his body was blown away, and he returned to the noble prince who was as elegant as jade.

Pang Zhijing panted lightly, and after exhaling the turbid air in her body, she straightened up and looked at him with piercing eyes, no matter what kind of eyes he was looking at her at this time, she said firmly to him.

"Xiao Hou, I want to make a deal with you."

Xiao Hou was a little surprised, and said with a mocking smile, "Princess, don't forget, you have already used up three opportunities, and you are not qualified to bargain with me!"

Pang Zhijing's face turned hot. It was the first time that she was said to be thick-skinned at such a big age, but for the sake of freedom and not being restrained by others, she could afford to lose her face.

Seeing her feeling ashamed and angry, Xiao Hou quickly summoned up his courage, looked at him with bright eyes, and was slightly taken aback.

"Of course I know that I have no chance of escaping, and I have also proved your cleverness. As long as you don't let me go, I will never escape from your grasp, so why should I make a death struggle?" She said softly Knowing this fact that she had verified with blood and tears, although she gritted her teeth, she had to admit defeat.

Xiao Hou expressed approval and waited for her next words.

After Pang Zhijing felt inferior and sighed, she said with firm eyes, "Xiao Hou, since you need me as a princess, then I think I have the qualifications to make a deal with you. After entering your Xixuan Capital, what do you need me to do with you? I will do my best to help you, but as long as you achieve what you want, let me go free and don't embarrass me, what do you think of this deal?"

Xiao Hou looked at her with probing eyes, "Didn't you agree with your prince and brother about this deal? Don't you think it's unnecessary to find me to cooperate with you?"

Pang Zhijing laughed at herself lightly, "Do you think I would trust a person who pushed my sister into the fire pit?",

"Then why do you trust this king? Although this king will not push you into the pit with his own hands like your imperial brother, he is also an accomplice in it." Xiao Hou was a little puzzled.

Why believe him?

She had never thought about this question, and Xiao Hou asked her in a daze.

Is it because although he was an accomplice, he never actually hurt himself?

Although he pressed on every step of the way, he was willing to keep the cloak to himself?

Although he still didn't want to let him go, he never made things difficult for him in other ways?
She couldn't help clutching the cloak tightly with both hands, and asked herself.

These seemed like answers, but also like questions, which made her confused.

She simply gave up thinking, raised her head, puffed her cheeks and said, "Maybe it's because your cloak has the breath of my old friend, which makes me think you are a trustworthy person."

Originally, Xiao Hou only paid attention to her to pass the time, but after listening to her answer, he fixed his eyes and looked at her, feeling a little surprised, a little surprised, and some inexplicable emotions arose in his heart.

trustworthy?

This is really an unfamiliar word.

After she finished speaking, she didn't see any reaction from him. Pang Zhijing took two steps towards him, stood in front of him, and asked angrily, "I've already told you the reason, why are you ignoring him?"

Xiao Hou came back to his senses, looked at the girl with fried hair in front of him, and said slowly, "Why do you think this king will cooperate with you?"
