Chapter 405 Completely captivated by him



Chapter 405 Completely captivated by him

This feeling of being trapped and suffocating was no joke; Chu Xiaohe's voice had become quite hoarse, a fact that Tuoba Liuli could clearly hear.

"Is it really choking you?" She was so scared that she quickly loosened her grip a little, but she didn't completely loosen it. Instead, she held her hand tightly, her fingers intertwined.

"I'm gripping myself very tightly. If you try to push me away by force, my fingers will break! I'm using internal energy; I know martial arts."

She spoke very seriously, a seriousness that left Chu Xiaohe somewhat speechless, both amused and exasperated.

My heart is still heavy with bitterness; I can't quite put my finger on what I'm feeling.

"Seventh Princess." Chu Xiaohe calmed down and looked at Tuoba Liuli, who was still sitting on his lap and hugging his neck, and sighed helplessly.

"I know you want to help me, and I also know that the person you like is Prince Mo and the Seventh Princess. You don't need to do this. Let's have a good talk, shall we?"

“I do like Brother Mo, but I know there’s no possibility between us. He only has Ali in his heart and eyes. You haven’t known him for long enough to understand him. He is actually… a very lonely and cold person.”

Chu Xiaohe was unsure whether he should agree with this.

In his eyes, Prince Mo wasn't too cold; in fact, one could say he was quite warm.

“Brother Chu, he only shows warmth to people from your Duke’s Mansion. Oh, and there’s one more person he treats gently: his younger brother, the Ninth Prince. He’s even cold to his mother, you wouldn’t believe it.”

Chu Xiaohe really didn't know that.

"Brother Chu, you're also benefiting from Ali's fame. Brother Mo likes Ali so much, so he treats your Duke's family very well. Even my third brother is jealous."

The Third Prince has known Brother Mo for so many years, and Brother Mo has always been incredibly cold to him, sometimes even cruel.

That's just his nature.

"You must have never seen Brother Mo fighting on the battlefield. He looks like... like a devil who has come out of hell. He's terrifying... but also very charming. I'm completely captivated by him."

"..." Chu Xiaohe was speechless.

The girl sat on his lap, hugged his neck, and told him that she was completely infatuated with another man.

He couldn't express how he felt at all.

“But Brother Chu, don’t be afraid of him. I know he would never harm anyone from your Duke’s Mansion, not even a single hair. He will only protect you, with his own life.”

"Are you very familiar with him?" Chu Xiaohe couldn't help but ask.

Tuoba Liuli was a little discouraged.

"Familiar, yet not familiar. I know him very well, but he doesn't know me at all. I'm not lying to you. He can't stand any other woman, only Ali."

"Seventh Princess..."

"Don't worry, I'm not angry with Ali, and I'm not jealous of Ali." Tuoba Liuli almost swore to him, "Really not, please don't doubt me, Ali, don't doubt me either. I will be very sad if you doubt me."

She really wasn't jealous.

Even Chu Xiaohe could see that.

She genuinely hoped that Prince Mo and Ali would be together.

This girl, born into royalty, has none of the airs of royalty, nor does she have any scheming; she is simple, straightforward, and honest.

“Even if you know that there is no future for you and Prince Mo, you still like him in your heart. If that’s the case, why sacrifice yourself to help me? Seventh Princess, I do not accept any pity or sympathy. I can live well as long as I protect the Duke’s Mansion. You don’t need to pity me.”
