342 The Crown Prince Was Really A Helpful Person! (2/2)
She could identify that those things were precious and everyone was looking for it in the market! However, the crown prince was not the favorite person in the parliament, and his residence was not as plentiful as what people thought. Those precious weapons were probably all his assets.
That made the weapons even more precious, and she was afraid that she could not compensate him in the future.
Rong Jialuo seemed to know her concern and smiled, ”You've overthought, I'm not giving all of these to you. I'm lending them to you. You need to return it to me when you are out.”
”What if I can’t make it?” Gu Xijiu simply asked.
”No, you’ll come back!” Rong Jialuo said firmly, ”I believe in you!”
Gu Xijiu replied, ”I'm grateful for Your Highness' offer, but I haven't achieved anything, and I shouldn't be rewarded.”
”Xijiu, you’ve saved my life, and you treated my illness, you deserve it no matter what! I'll give it to you.”
Gu Xijiu remained silent.
She understood that the crown prince has found out the identity of the person who helped him to treat his illness. He just did not mention it previously.
She decided to be frank, ”That was just a trade, Your Highness doesn't owe me anything.”
Rong Jialuo looked at her and said, ”Xijiu, what are you trying to avoid?”
Gu Xijiu frowned, ”Huh?”
Rong Jialuo sighed, ”I realized you'd set a barrier towards every man. Are you afraid to owe them something and don't want to have any further relationships with them? Don't worry, not everyone would be like Rong Yan, at least I'm… still a reliable person.”
