However, her smile suddenly froze on her face when she caught Jun Muxi's interested gaze.
"That...ahem!"
Qiao Qingqing wanted to speak, but she swallowed so hard that she accidentally choked on the pastry, and her little face suddenly turned crimson from coughing.
Jun Muxi frowned slightly and handed her another cup of warm tea.
Qiao Qingqing took it and drank it before she regained her breath.
She didn't dare to raise her head, so she could only cover her face with the tea cup, and her delicate little toes moved helplessly, thinking about how to speak.
"What do you want from me?"
There was no emotion or anger on Jun Muxi's face.
Qiao Qingqing opened her mouth, and finally had an idea, "I... I'm here to thank the prince for giving me the cloak last night..."
Jun Muxi raised his eyelids, chuckled, and said lightly, "Don't worry about such small things."
"oh."
Qiao Qingqing puffed up her cheeks and put down her water glass in embarrassment.
"Well, the prince must have heard about the marriage grant. Actually..."
"I know that you can't forget the prince," Jun Muxi turned around and stood with his hands behind his back, "Just be patient for now. When I find an opportunity, I will let the emperor take his life back."
"do not!"
Qiao Qingqing was anxious. She stood up and stopped in front of Jun Muxi, saying dissatisfiedly, "I don't want to break off the engagement."
"What do you want?"
Jun Muxi lowered his eyes, and anger slowly rose in his eyes, "You want to stay with me and reveal my every move to your dearest brother, don't you?"
"I didn't know about the marriage either..."
Qiao Qingqing looked at Jun Muxi and didn't know where to start.
"You wouldn't know?"
Jun Muxi burst into laughter, "Qiao San, since the king returned to Kyoto, you have been waiting for opportunities to approach me again and again and behaved abnormally. Last night in the palace, your impassioned speech to the prince has long been known to everyone. Now you tell me,
You don’t know, huh, do you still want to say that you have deep love for me?”
"I..." Qiao Qingqing was speechless, but then she thought of another loophole, "If I am really at the mercy of the prince, why should I embarrass him in public?"
"That's because you, Qiao San, have your own thoughts!"
Qiao Qingqing was a little choked with words.
Indeed, Qiao Qingqing in the book is not a master who can be manipulated by others. She will fight back, and there is nothing wrong with it.
Looking at the slight redness at the end of Jun Muxi's eyes, Qiao Qingqing felt a little guilty for a moment, and her tone became a little softer:
"I know that I have done many wrong things before, but I swear, I really like you now and I want to marry you. It doesn't matter if you don't believe me now. I will prove myself, but I only have one request. You don't want to
Is it okay to break off the engagement in a hurry?"
"not good."
Jun Muxi's response was very decisive.
This response made Qiao Qingqing's pity disappear instantly.
"Ho!"
Qiao Qingqing stamped her foot, "Did you know? My ninety-eight pounds of body is all bone!"
Jun Muxi couldn't understand what she was talking about and frowned.
"I'll stop talking now, Jun Muxi, I, Qiao Qingqing, you have to marry whether you want to marry me or not!"
"If I just don't want to marry you, what will you do?"
Jun Muxi also lost his politeness, and his face gradually turned gloomy.
"Come here and I'll tell you what will happen."
Qiao Qingqing hooked her fingers and leaned forward.
Jun Muxi approached suspiciously, watching helplessly as the girl slowly moved her lips closer.
He took a good posture and frowned slightly, as if waiting for the girl to speak.
In the flash of lightning, the scent of almonds spread across his cheeks. Qiao Qingqing chuckled and ran away after the kiss!
Jun Muxi was startled and instantly realized that he had been tricked.
He clenched his iron fist, suppressed the throbbing in his heart, and gritted his teeth and uttered three words:
"Qiao Qingqing!"
I thought the girl had gone away, but when I looked up, I saw her backing up to the threshold again, tapping her pink cheeks with her fingertips, smiling wantonly, "You are not convinced, then why don't you kiss her back?"
That kind of look, don't mention too much trouble.
"..."
Jun Muxi was speechless, and her cheeks turned red inch by inch.
Qiao Qingqing's mood instantly improved.
However, just as she was about to leave, she suddenly felt a suffocation in her throat!
"Extreme joy brings sorrow..."
She held on to the door frame with a face full of pain. In a daze, she heard the system say:
[The host is allergic to almonds, and the pastry ingredients just contain almonds. 】
Qiao Qingqing covered her neck and was about to cry, "I'm allergic to almonds, but the second female lead is not allergic..."
[The host and the second female are now one body.]
"You old man, you never said anything about this..."
Seeing this, Jun Muxi stepped forward quickly and held her shoulders. The solemnity and resistance just now disappeared in an instant:
"Qiao San, what's wrong with you?"
A hint of joy flashed across Qiao Qingqing's face, which was distorted by pain, and she said intermittently:
"Man, you said... you don't want to marry me... I think you care about me more... than anyone else..."
After saying this, her vision went dark and she lost consciousness.
Seeing Qiao Qingqing fainted, Jun Muxi quickly picked her up into his arms and hugged her sideways.
"Qiao Qingqing, I owe you everything in my previous life!"
He scolded secretly, and while walking hurriedly to his bedroom, he shouted loudly, "Here comes the doctor!"
After some treatment, Qiao Qingqing's condition finally stabilized.
When Qiao Qingqing regained consciousness, the original owner was still in a coma.
"Gugu, if I really die, will it be considered a mission failure?"
The system responds truthfully:
【Calculate.】
"What happens if you fail? Just another book?"
【If you are allergic to almonds, you will die.】
"What is it? Are you serious?"
[As I said, the host and the second female are now one body.]
"No, Gugu, how can you live without me? Gugu, Gugu?"
While calling the system, Qiao Qingqing reversed Yue Yunpeng's "Swallow, how can I live without you" in an attempt to arouse the system's conscience, but the person who responded to her was actually a middle-aged woman:
"Hey, Miss Third, my aunt is here. My poor child, my mother left as soon as you were born. Who the hell did you leave a half-grown baby like you to finally grow into a big girl?"
What did you do like this? My poor child..."
Qiao Qingqing finally opened her eyes.
Could the fat lady in front of me be the country aunt who dragged her to the age of five?
Qiao Qingqing felt a splitting headache.
She raised her voice and said softly, "Why are you here?"
The woman sobbed and wiped her tears, "I had already fallen asleep. Someone looked at my door in the middle of the night and said that your life was hanging by a thread. He kept calling me. It scared me!"
As she spoke, she cried loudly again. Qiao Qingqing held her forehead and was speechless.
She called the system "Gugu". Who brought this woman who couldn't keep her mouth shut?
While thinking about it, Qiao Qingqing glanced at Jun Muxi who was sitting at the table not far away. His expression was a little solemn, and there seemed to be a haze gathering between his brows.
She suddenly remembered that the woman just cursed: "Who the hell made you like this?"
What a sin...
Qiao Qingqing coughed lightly and reminded in a low voice, "Auntie, it was the prince who accidentally fed me almonds."
The woman's face turned pale!
After being silent for a while, she whispered, "Eating almonds...how can something happen? You ate a lot of them when you were a kid..."
