Si Sheng’s body stiffened slightly.
He felt a bit bitter in his heart as he listened to the young man’s cold words. However, in the end, he obediently loosened his arms and let go.
Xu Sili had a cold expression. He controlled the flying saucer to leave, keeping his back to Si Sheng as he headed in the direction of the palace without looking back.
Even though Si Sheng could only see his back, he could still imagine the young man’s angry expression. The long silver hair flying in the wind seemed contaminated with the owner’s anger.
Si Sheng couldn’t help holding his forehead, feeling extremely regretful.
What on earth had he done?
This was a game world. No matter in the past or now, he was an NPC set up in the game. This fact had indeed caused him a great shock.
But how could he doubt his own feelings?
Past scenes emerged in Si Sheng’s mind…
Looking back now, he did have moments when he was confused and seemed to be controlled by some rules. However, he broke free from those constraints very early on.
He could even recall that moment clearly… This was also the first time he heard the voice of his god and Ah Li.
If that was really a game world where he just awakened, then those strange things he had felt before could be explained.
Why were all eyes focused on the princess? Why did some scenes also feel familiar, as if they had happened many times before?
These doubts now had answers.
It was just like Ah Li said. He had been out of control since he came to this world.
He also didn’t think that anything could manipulate his emotions.
He should feel fortunate that he and Ah Li were now in the same world and had each other.
A deep joy rose in his heart when he confirmed this.
Now he had screwed up everything.
Si Sheng stood there in a daze, feeling regret to the fullest. At this moment, the figure on the flying saucer slowly stopped.
The young man who had left looked back at him.
The young man’s expression became even colder after realizing that Si Sheng was motionless. He pursed his lips, withdrew his gaze without saying a word and continued to fly forward.
Si Sheng blinked and stopped hesitating. He sped up and flew over, following by Xu Sili’s side.
“Stay away from me!”
As the two figures flew away in the sky, the young man’s dissatisfied voice could be heard. “”I don’t want to see you now!”
“Who needs your protection?”
“Go away. Keep your distance!”
……
In just one day, everyone in the palace who was close to them knew that the emperor and his minister, who were usually inseparable, seemed to have a quarrel.
It wasn’t quite a quarrel. It was more like a one-sided cold war between His Majesty and the marshal.
To put it another way, the marshal had fallen out of favor?
However, the marshal obviously didn’t agree with this statement.
A tragedy happened when the shadow guards were secretly discussing it. They were caught red-handed by the marshal and blood was almost shed.
Fortunately, His Majesty arrived in time and rescued poor Ying Jiu.
From that day on, no one dared to secretly gossip about the two of them anymore, let alone mention such a sensitive thing as the marshal’s fall from favor.
Of course, anyone with a discerning eye could see that it was impossible for the marshal to fall out of favor.
After all, the marshal still lived in the emperor’s bedroom every day.
In the early morning, sunlight poured in from the window and added a bit of brightness to the huge bedroom.
Xu Sili slightly opened his eyes. The moment he saw the figure lying beside him in a daze, he subconsciously raised his foot and kicked out. The result was…
The man’s palm accurately caught his foot. The closed pair of gray-blue eyes opened, sparkling with charming colors in the sunlight.
“Your Majesty…” Si Sheng called out helplessly.
Xu Sili snorted and said angrily, “Who allowed you to sleep on the bed?”
Si Sheng was still staying in his bedroom, but Xu SIli would kick him to the floor every night. Then after only a few days, he actually climbed into bed again!
Xu Sili shouldn’t have been soft-hearted and indulged this guy. Si Sheng was the type of person who always pushed the limit.
Si Sheng looked at the angry young man and felt the strength as he tried to pull his foot back. However, Si Sheng didn’t let go. Instead, he exerted a bit of force, pulled Xu Sili over and pressed him underneath Si Sheng.
After restraining the young man’s struggling hands, he leaned over and asked in a low voice, “Are you still angry with me?”
Xu Sili turned his face away and silently expressed his persistence.
He was really angry.
What did Si Sheng mean by his love was also a game setting? He actually dared to ask such a question?
Seeing his angry look, Si Sheng knew he was still thinking about Si Sheng’s stupid words that day.
But even he couldn’t take back what he had said…
So how to get Xu Sili’s forgiveness?
Just as Si Sheng was feeling distress, their bodies froze at the same time.
Si Sheng blinked, felt it carefully and laughed softly. “It seems that your body has forgiven me.”
Xu Sili couldn’t help blushing.
These words… He gritted his teeth and the sound almost squeezed out from between his teeth. “It is morning now! It will be like this even without you, okay?”
Si Sheng nodded but the smile on his face didn’t decrease.
“I understand,” he said gently. “However, I’m happy to help you solve your problem. Please give me a chance.”
Then without waiting for Xu Sili’s response, the man disappeared from Xu Sili’s sight.
Xu Sili’s hands were still restrained, and he could only watch as a bulge formed in the quilt in front of him.
This guy…
He bit his lip slightly, the redness of his face slowly changing into another meaning.
The temperature in the room gradually rose, which was very pleasant and comfortable in this winter that was beginning to get cold.
The curtains swayed slightly. The young man, who had just woken up, lay in bed, his silver hair disheveled and his hands loosely tied with a thin ribbon. He struggled symbolically before stopping.
The young man turned his face to the side. His tightly clenched lips slowly loosened, and his eyes became blurred as if covered with a layer of mist.
After an unknown amount of time, he completely collapsed on the bed. The man hugged him and rubbed their faces together affectionately.
Xu Sili felt that he should push Si Sheng away, but the feeling at this moment was too comfortable. He had no intention of moving and just wanted to lie there.
In the end, he followed the truest thoughts in his heart.
At this moment, Xu Sili felt his hand being lifted up. Something cold and metallic was put on his finger.
This was… the ring finger of the left hand?
Xu Sili suddenly opened his eyes and saw Si Sheng putting a silver ring on his finger, rubbing it gently with his fingers.
He was stunned. This ring…”
Did Si Sheng know what he was doing now? Did he know what a ring on the left ring finger meant?
“I asked the braves,” Si Sheng said.
“In your word, rings have a special meaning.”
He originally wanted to ask his second brother, but later changed his mind.
Then Si Sheng took a deep breath and asked, “Ah Li, will you be my partner?”
Si Sheng’s voice was more serious than ever before. “I want a status.”
Xu Sili was stunned by the sudden proposal. Then he couldn’t help laughing when he heard the last sentence.
Why did these words sound so wronged?
He looked at the ring on his hand, admiring it carefully for a long time. They tried hard to hold back his laughter and managed to make his expression look a bit better.
“I’m still angry,” he emphasized.
Si Sheng lifted his silver hair and played with it gently in his palm. He asked softly in a low and hoarse voice, “What should I do to get your forgiveness?”
Xu Sili couldn’t help feeling conflicted when asked this question.
In fact, he was no longer angry after being treated like this by Si Sheng.
In any case, this was a special day worth commemorating in the future.
“You want to marry me?” Xu Sili hesitated for a moment before asking, “Have you thought it through?”
“Of course.”
Si Sheng didn’t hesitate at all. After a few days of calm thinking, his thoughts had become completely clear.
He thought a lot and realized more clearly that every step he had taken so far was his own choice.
Even if he was protecting Roland, he was protecting the nation in his own way.
What if he was really a data life who had awakened self-awareness, so what? It was just a different life form.
No matter what, he would always be the most powerful one. All of this wouldn’t affect his life with Ah Li.
“Ah Li, I love you.”
He hugged Xu Sili tightly and whispered, “Being able to be your partner is something I have longed for. It will be the greatest happiness in my life.”
“Please give me this chance. I am willing to do anything as long as I can be with you.”
Xu Sili looked at the silver ring on his hand. He could feel the power contained in it, but he didn’t use Insight to check it this time.
This wasn’t some equipment, but… the ring that Si Sheng proposed to him with.
Thinking of this, Xu Sili couldn’t help laughing but he didn’t agree immediately.
Instead, he said, “You need to get my family’s consent first.”
“That’s the only thing I want from you.”
Si Sheng, “……”
He hesitated for a while, but finally nodded and said okay.
