It was not until she was drawn into a certain someone’s arms at the speed of light that the child noticed something.
That was not a blazing wave of clouds on the horizon!
It was Crown Prince Mo standing on an ancient gold dragon whose body was encased in fiery flames against the wind.
Every spot that the dragon touched in the sky turned scarlet red, and the zombie crows were incinerated on the spot without a single feather remaining.
The crown prince’s elegant figure was truly unrivaled by anyone. His ink air was scattered loosely by the wind while his white robes embroidered with bamboo were plastered to his slender figure, his sleeves billowing in the wind.
However, darling Qiao Mu was currently flabbergasted and did not see the crown prince’s magnificent figure. Instead, her eyes were glued to the giant dragon head that was turning toward her.
A living beast like a dragon did not belong in the scope of mystic beasts, no?
A living creature that she had only ever seen in history books was suddenly turning to look at her with his giant dragon eyes. She… did not know how to feel.
“What was our agreement when we parted ways?” Crown Prince Lian tilted his head and looked down at the child in his arms with a grin.
‘I didn’t agree to anything with you!’ The child’s clueless expression quickly turned into a stoic, poker face, and she lightly nodded.
She might not remember this supposed promise.
It was fine. As long as she put on an earnest expression and nodded in feigned understanding regardless of what he said, she should be able to get away with it…
The crown prince was still smiling, but the child could inexplicably detect a hint of danger from his slightly narrowed eyes.
“Didn’t I say that you could come and find me if anything happens?”
‘Yeah, you said it. But you’re far away in the royal capital, Guanlan City. Can you possibly appear in front of me as soon as I summon you?’ The child scoffed.
“Qiaoqiao, you must trust me no matter when, alright?” The crown prince pinched the child’s cheeks and intently looked at her.
“I naturally have the confidence to fulfill the words I spoke.”
“Whether there are expansive mountains or a vast ocean between us, I’ll appear next to you as long as you call me.”There was a faint smile in his eyes as he gently murmured, “So remember to try it out in the future, alright?”
His stare caused discomfort to enter her “old face,” so the child quickly turned away and saw Ao Ye sneakily hiding behind a fallen log.
“You sent someone to monitor me?” the child questioned with displeasure in an attempt to switch the topic.
“If I didn’t run into Ao Ye on my way here, how could I find you so quickly? Tell me, if I arrived a few minutes later, what would you do today?” She had no idea how fiercely his heart had pounded when he saw the murder of crows charging toward her in a swarm earlier.
“Didn’t I tell you not to take a risk alone for dangerous matters?”
“I’m not alone!” ‘Are you blind? Aren’t all those people around me people too?’
‘If they were useful, would you be in such a sorry state?’ the crown prince asked with his eyes.
“I also told you to not roam outside when it’s a dark and windy night. You promised me back then, why have you gone back on your words now?”
‘When in the world did I go outside on a dark and windy night? Isn’t this…’ Qiao Mu looked up at the dark sky.
Qiao Mu suddenly felt like “Even the heavens aren’t helping me!” When did the sky completely darken without her knowing?
‘So infuriating! I don’t want to talk to him anymore!’ Qiao Mu pursed her lips and donned her signature stoic face.
“You broke your promise, don’t you deserve a beating?”
‘What? In public?! You’re gonna hit my ‘old face’ again?!’
Without waiting for the crown prince to act, the child pounced on him like a tiger cub and latched onto his neck before chomping down on his chin.
‘So hard! Ouch…’ Qiao Mu shed some tears secretly.
