The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day-Chapter 147 - 83 Ye Qichi, Why Are You So Good to Me?_4

Suddenly.

Xiao Jinxing and Ye Qichi glanced at each other.

They distinctly felt footsteps approaching.

Step by step, becoming clearer and clearer.

Disaster.

They were discovered.

Ye Qichi hastily picked up the dagger from the ground.

She carefully edged towards the entrance.

Xiao Jinxing watched Ye Qichi’s movements, watched as she, once again, positioned herself in front of him...

Why does this woman recklessly throw herself in danger for him?!

Xiao Jinxing’s lips were tightly pursed.

He instantly focused his attention on the footsteps outside.

Because of the tension, sweat began dripping from his forehead.

A moment so tense it was suffocating.

Ye Qichi, dagger in hand, seemed to already see the assassin’s black boots at the moment she was about to strike.

"There’s someone over there!" Suddenly, a loud voice called out.

The pair of black boots that were about to step in instantly followed the voice and left.

And stayed away for a long time.

Ye Qichi still maintained her stabbing posture.

The intense tension from before almost made her faint.

She silently adjusted her emotions, it took a long while before she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She looked towards Xiao Jinxing.

Seeing that his complexion wasn’t much better.

If the assassin had entered just now, even if he was unexpectedly killed by Ye Qichi, with so many assassins outside, any disturbance would undoubtedly lead to their deaths.

It can be said that they narrowly escaped from the jaws of death.

Ye Qichi heavily sat on the ground, feeling somewhat weak in the legs now that the danger was removed.

"This place is no longer safe," Xiao Jinxing said.

"Yeah," Ye Qichi nodded.

At this moment, she suddenly realized that she could make a sound.

She opened her mouth, "I can speak now."

Although not very clear, it was mostly discernible that her lips were less swollen.

She hurriedly added, "How’s your leg?"

"Much better," Xiao Jinxing replied.

After the acupuncture Ye Qichi administered last night, along with her keeping him warm all night, he clearly felt that his legs could move.

"Try standing up," Ye Qichi quickly went over to help him.

Just a second ago, they were so tense as if ready to kill each other.

But in this moment, they stood on the same line. freēnovelkiss.com

Ye Qichi’s sudden closeness caused a slight stir in Xiao Jinxing’s heart.

He pursed his lips, being lifted up from the ground by Ye Qichi.

After helping him up, Ye Qichi let go of him.

Xiao Jinxing stood very stable.

Steady for a while, Xiao Jinxing began to walk.

He took a few steps, seemingly unimpeded.

Ye Qichi could not help but joyfully say, "All my efforts to keep you warm last night weren’t in vain."

Xiao Jinxing remembered everything Ye Qichi did for him last night...

His voice became a bit deep, "Why are you so good to me?"

Apart from Bai Mowan.

No one has truly treated him well.

Not even the Empress Dowager.

Ye Qichi slightly frowned.

Why is he suddenly saying this?!

Is she nice to him?!

She merely fulfilled her duty as a doctor.

Moreover, if he were to die, who from the Minister Mansion would take responsibility? She certainly didn’t want to repeat past mistakes!

Just as Ye Qichi was considering how to respond.

Xiao Jinxing suddenly said, "Forget it, I don’t want to know."

Ye Qichi was speechless.

Asking despite claiming not to want to know.

"No matter what, I will not have feelings for you," Xiao Jinxing said slowly and firmly.

It was almost like he was reminding himself too.

Ye Qichi rolled her eyes.

So, did Xiao Jinxing think she was madly in love with him, thus treating him this way?!

"This subject thanks Prince Chen for not having feelings for this subject!" Ye Qichi replied with a tone of sarcasm but was not lying.

If Xiao Jinxing had feelings for her...

Forget it, not even worth considering.

"You don’t have to deliberately speak contrarily," Xiao Jinxing said, "I will try to make it up to you."

Convinced that she was just hiding her true feelings.

And he generously offered to make it up to her.

"How will you make it up?" Ye Qichi was suddenly very curious to what extent Prince Lord’s conscience could possibly go.

"As for becoming the Princess, don’t even think about it," Xiao Jinxing bluntly stated.

She wouldn’t want it even if it was offered.

"Otherwise, you can make any requests!" Meaning, any conditions could be negotiated except for the position of the Princess.

"Forget it," Ye Qichi finally bothered to talk with Xiao Jinxing anymore.

She didn’t fancy Xiao Jinxing’s reparations.

"Just ensure you fulfill what you promised, nothing else is needed," that was her only demand.

As long as he doesn’t break his promise and turns fat.

Xiao Jinxing looked at Ye Qichi.

Surprised for a second, he couldn’t believe that with such a good opportunity, Ye Qichi didn’t make any requests?!

Upon reflection.

Maybe Ye Qichi was just being stubborn.

Using this indifferent manner to conceal her own distress.

But the position of Empress... was always reserved for Bai Mowan.

"Let’s go," Ye Qichi already turned the page.

She never had much interest in such trivial matters.

Right now, she quickly packed up, taking the herbs and the remaining two wild fruits with her.

Xiao Jinxing watched as Ye Qichi returned to her normal self...

"What are you dazing for?" Ye Qichi dragged Xiao Jinxing along.

Escaping shouldn’t survival be the top priority now?

Xiao Jinxing came back to his senses.

If it weren’t for Ye Qichi constantly risking her life to save him, he really wouldn’t have noticed Ye Qichi’s feelings for him.

Suddenly, what Wu Xufan said that day crossed his mind.

Talking about a man having three wives and four concubines...

But he didn’t want, to subject Bai Mowan to even the slightest grievance.

Right now, Ye Qichi had no idea what Xiao Jinxing was thinking.

She dragged Xiao Jinxing out of the cave, looking for directions.

Yuzhou was in the southwest direction.

She recalled the route map she had looked at before departing, replayed the path they had traveled in her mind, determined the cardinal directions again, and quickly found the correct way, "This way."

Xiao Jinxing frowned.

He was also just determining the direction they needed to head, but hadn’t expected that just as he was about to speak, Ye Qichi had already spoken out.

And it was actually, correct.

This woman... time and again, she surpassed his expectations.
