Chapter 381 – I came for you

Xijue was a teenage child with a noble upbringing and as a result, he had quite a stubborn temperament.

Ning Xuemo was getting a headache from this; she didn’t want to get into this kind of pointless argument with him, “Alright, Your Highness Xijue.”

“Remove the ‘Your Highness’.” Xijue was quite the stubborn one.

Ning Xuemo clenched her teeth, “Fine, Xijue! Is this good enough?”

“Mm, it’s good enough.” Xijue had achieved his aim. Now that he was satisfied, he downed his cup of wine. His eyes twinkled as he looked at Ning Xuemo, and he spoke with a measured pace, “No matter my identity, Xuemo, I don’t want the two of us to drift apart.”

His penetrating gaze caused Ning Xuemo’s scalp to feel numb, and she couldn’t help but give a nod, “Of course, we definitely won’t drift apart. I’ve always treated you as a friend.”

Damn brat, your identity is already so great, no wonder you had an aloof personality.

Even while he had acted as her bodyguard, he didn’t act like the other subordinates and call her mistress, but rather addressed her as Miss Ning.

He might as well start calling her “Xuemo” from now on.

However, with his grand background, why did he risk going to the Heavenly Book Mountains without a single bodyguard back then?

He had also dressed like a common martial artist, making her think that he was just an ordinary person.

It was really odd though, why did he resemble Number Two so much? She didn’t need to ask to know that they were somehow related by blood. Was it possible that Number Two was a part of the Wise King Clan?

Aside from the main branch of the Wise King Clan, there were also numerous other side branches of the family that supported the clan.

Is it possible that Number Two was a part of a lesser family branch?

If you looked at Xijue’s attitude, it looked like he didn’t even know about the existence of Number Two.

Shouldn’t Xijue be a little interested in Number Two, if he was a member of one of the branch families?
