2793 Don’t Worry, I Am Not Sending You Away (1/2)
Gu Xijiu was smart enough to link everything that happened together in an instant. This man must have noticed that the princess was the culprit for a while now. Knowing that she would most likely be interested in handsome men, he needed to trigger her jealousy by doing things that were completely out of her expectation.
Back in the restaurant, he purposely showed his kindness to the woman who was seen as hideous by the public. The princess had, as expected, become utterly jealous and thus initiated a series of brutal remarks and actions.
Feng Jiayi knew very well that everything was going as he planned, so he notified the victims' families in advance. The Monster King was not the only one who had received the invitation. The princess needed to be exposed in the eyes of the public and punished in a way that she deserved.
Gu Xijiu studied Feng Jiayi for a while and was impressed by his perception and wit, even though he was only a young man.
”I am sorry,” Feng Jiayi suddenly apologized.
Gu Xijiu cleared her throat to dissolve the awkwardness. Now that he had apologized, she should let the matter go. After all, the princess deserved it.
”I…” A sudden grasp by her wrist interrupted her.
Baffled, she had never encountered such disrespect in her life. She wanted to push his hand away, but he pulled her toward him instead. ”This is not the place to talk. Follow me!”
Soon, Gu Xijiu's vision turned black! The man had already initiated the Ground Drilling technique.
Gu Xijiu was still perplexed. ”What are you doing?”
”Don't worry. I am not going to send you away.” Feng Jiayi did not look back and continued drilling.
Gu Xijiu knew that he was not strong enough to hurt her. Stirred by curiosity, she decided to let him guide the way.
After a moment, Gu Xijiu noticed that something was not quite right. Usually, Ground Drillings would only cover a relatively short distance. One would usually use it for a hundred miles at most.
