Chapter 216 Is it mine alone, or does someone else have it too?
Qi Yi looked at Jun Lanjin with some surprise: "How did you know?"
Jun Lanjin lay on the chaise lounge, one long leg crossed, his hands behind his head, his expression calm, showing no sign of the urgency of impending death, a composed smile on his lips: "You came to me to say all this, simply because you want to make an exchange."
"what do you want?"
Qi Yi couldn't see through this person.
Even though he was about to die, he acted as if he could hear about the life and death of others.
Qi Yi thought for a moment and said, "It takes three years for the Gu to fully develop. If you can live for three years, I can save you."
"But similarly..." Qi Yi stopped mid-sentence, turned around and went into his room to take out all the clay figurines that Xie Xing had rejected yesterday.
He looked intently at Jun Lanjin: "These are mine."
"What?" Jun Lanjin paused, not quite understanding. His gaze shifted somewhat blankly from the box to Qi Yi's face.
Qi Yi looked at him with hostility: "These were made by Miss after several days and nights of careful work."
"They're so beautiful. If you don't want them, I'll take them. Give them to me, and I'll agree to use Gu to cure your poison."
Jun Lanjin: "..." 6.
He had even planned out how he would negotiate the price with Qi Yi if Qi Yi proposed to return to Miao territory.
Instead, he took out a box of worthless items and said he would exchange them for a Gu poison.
Jun Lanjin's gaze fell on the box of clay figurines.
The exquisite clay figurines perfectly capture his various expressions and movements, showing that he put a lot of effort into them. In addition, there are some other delicate and beautiful little items.
These things were arranged neatly.
The words of agreeing to Qi Yi's request stuck in his throat. After a long silence, Jun Lanjin couldn't help but say, "These are all mine."
What use are you to me?
Qi Yi glared at him, but he protectively held the things in his arms and said, "You don't want them anymore, they're mine now."
"Just one question: will you give it to me or not?"
Jun Lanjin: "..."
Although he didn't care about it at all, he couldn't bring himself to give it all to Qi Yi.
Throwing it away is one thing, giving it to someone else is another.
Jun Lanjin never expected that this would be the result.
He was speechless, then couldn't help but ask, "If you want it, why don't you ask Xie Xing to make it for you?"
Making these little things should be a piece of cake for Xie Xing.
Xie Xing seems to have a good temper, while Qi Yi's identity is extraordinary. If you want to please Qi Yi, you can just make another set for him.
no…
Jun Lanjin's brain, which is used to weighing pros and cons, also crashed the moment Qi Yi traded a precious Gu worm for a set of clay figurines that didn't belong to him.
Is this person missing a screw in their head?
No wonder she was sold into slavery.
Jun Lanjin looked at Qi Yi with a complicated expression.
Qi Yi looked at Jun Lanjin as if she were an idiot and said, "Why would Miss possibly make this for me?"
"I'm not a prince, how could I receive such good treatment?"
Jun Lanjin reached up and touched his forehead, saying, "In that case, since you have successfully used the Gu, I will have her make a set for you."
Qi Yi's eyes lit up: "Really?"
Jun Lanjin: "...Really?"
Qi Yi was about to be happy, but when he realized Jun Lanjin's implied meaning, he became dissatisfied again.
"What gives you the right to order my young lady around?"
Jun Lanjin didn't want to argue with him, so she just said, "One is willing to hit, and the other is willing to be hit. You'll have to ask your young lady."
Qi Yi was even more annoyed.
He stared intently at Jun Lanjin.
This person is really taking advantage of the young lady's favor and becoming too arrogant.
He carefully kept it, then muttered to himself, "Vixen."
Jun Lanjin: "..."
He stumbled and almost fell off the chaise lounge.
He looked at Qi Yi with astonishment, his voice tinged with disbelief: "What did you say about me?"
Qi Yi was surprised that he had heard it and quickly covered his mouth with his hand.
His eyes were fixed on Jun Lanjin, his gaze resentful. He looked Jun Lanjin up and down, and the more he looked, the more he felt that this so-called prince was like a vixen. Just by relying on his looks, he made his young lady run around doing things for him. That was bad enough.
The key issue is that this person doesn't know what's good for them.
Vixen!
You don’t know how blessed you are when you are in the midst of blessings!
Junlan Jin stayed in Bengbu.
Jun Lanjin had investigated Qi Yi's identity, after all, he was someone who stayed by Xie Xing's side. He only knew that Qi Yi came from Miao territory and was sold to human traffickers, but Xie Xing bought him back by chance.
Jun Lanjin then learned the man's identity.
The holy son who has disappeared from the Miao region.
However, rumors circulate that this holy son of Miao Jiang is a good-for-nothing who doesn't know how to raise Gu poison.
Therefore, even though they went missing, they didn't send many people to search for them.
Upon seeing him today, Jun Lanjin realized that Qi Yi was openly raising Gu poisons within the Zhenguo General's Mansion.
It seems this kid is very confident in his gu-raising skills, which is why he danced in front of him.
Jun Lanjin didn't mind talking to him.
However, after a few sentences, he began to doubt his own judgment.
As I was deep in thought, I don't know how much time had passed when a fragrant aroma wafted over.
Jun Lanjin looked over there and saw Xie Xing carrying a food tray, smiling as he walked towards him: "Your Highness, would you like to try some?"
This time, Xie Xing did some novel things.
She specially brewed a cup of fruit wine for Jun Lanjin, and placed crispy fried food and desserts and small cakes that had been prepared in advance in front of Jun Lanjin.
You don't even need to eat it; just by smelling it, you can tell it's delicious.
Jun Lanjin paused for a moment, then scooped up a piece of dessert with a spoon and put it in his mouth. It was something he had never eaten before; it was sweet and delicious.
"Your Highness, how is it?" Xie Xing looked at Jun Lanjin with bright eyes.
Jun Lanjin paused for a moment.
He brought over a teacup, took a sip of the fruit wine inside, and found it fragrant and delicious, leaving a lingering aftertaste. It was a novel way of eating, and it seemed like he had put thought into it.
Jun Lanjin's lips curled up slightly.
Although this girl is quick-witted, a bit too cautious, and uses sweet talk, it's undeniable that if she wants to please someone, Jun Lanjin, as the one being pleased, will inevitably be happy.
This joy became even clearer when compared to Xie Xing's attitude towards others.
It's only for him.
"Not bad." Jun Lanjin took another sip of fruit wine. "How was it made?"
Seeing that he was truly satisfied, Xie Xing's eyes finally curved into a smile, and she immediately said sweet words: "It's good that Your Highness likes it. Of course, it was specially prepared for Your Highness. I checked the books beforehand."
That's absolutely right.
She has modern knowledge, but to do these things, she also needs to combine it with ancient recipes.
If you're willing to learn, of course you can learn it.
Jun Lanjin raised an eyebrow, his gaze casually sweeping over Qi Yi.
Qi Yi was practically bursting with jealousy.
Jun Lanjin rested his chin on his hand, his peach blossom eyes, seemingly both affectionate and indifferent, calmly looking at Xie Xing: "Is that so? Then is this something unique to me, Fifth Miss Xie, or does it also apply to others?"
Xie Xing was momentarily stunned: "Others?"
Jun Lanjin grunted, "I heard that yesterday, behind the rockery in the Crown Prince's residence, Miss Xie and the Seventh Prince, whom you hate the most, were seen embracing each other. I don't know what they did together."
