Kapitel 16: Rosetta and James ——2

" What are you looking at? Do you think that Miss Xifeng would not like me?" Qi Hong asked when he noticed the way his butler was looking at him, his eyes narrowed subtly while he glared at Li Wan who shook his head at once and replied,

" Of course not your majesty, you are so good-looking. I am just thinking why it took so long for Mi Xifeng to confess to you." There was no way Li Wan was going to say what was in his mind, in fact, he still could not believe that Mo Xifeng was the one who wrote this cheesy poem and if not for the fact that there was no other decent option, he would have never believed it either.

"As I said, it must have been because she was shy," Qi Hong sighed helplessly as if he was imagining the struggle Mo Xifeng through while writing this poem for him. " So romantic, so wonderful…this was what I want in a woman." He turned to look at Li Wan and then said, " Ask her what she wants as a reward, most probably she would ask you about my response or maybe she will ask me at a candle light dinner."

As he finished speaking Qi hong finished speaking, he covered his face with his hands while blushing furiously. He had always imagined being taken to a candlelight dinner with roses and whatnot arranged for him, ever since he was a kid, his parents hardly had any time for him since they were busy trying to keep order in the Main Star while trying their best to keep the Zerg army away from their Main star.

What was more there was also those annoying dungeons with beasts that opened once in a while causing trouble in their land, which was why Qi Hong spent most of his time with books and the stories that were written in them, his nanny who stayed with him when he was young would often tell him how a princess charming would one day come and sweep him off his feet and then shower him with all the love that he could not get when he was young.

Ever since then, Qi Hong has been nothing but obsessed with the idea of getting a romantic ending for himself as well.

He was sure that Mo Xifeng was going to ask him on a date but then when he did not receive and answer from Li Wan for a long time, he turned to look at the latter and asked, "What's wrong? Why are you not telling me what she asked for?"

But then he gasped and covered his blushing cheeks as he said, " Don't tell me, she is asking for my body right away…was it a marriage proposal? Oh, that naughty girl."

Li Wan was afraid that if he did not speak up soon, his master will go ahead and even have imaginary, silver hair kids running in the greenhouse by the time he spoke, which was why he immediately opened his mouth with an annoyed expression as he ruthlessly broke the fantasy of his master, " She is asking for a hundred oak tree seeds and maple seeds, your highness. Please rein in your horses a little."

He was just a butler why does he have to listen to such things?

Qi Hong who was even imagining the clothes that he was going to wear for the date was jolted awake as he turned to look at Li Wan. He raised his hand and then said, " Time out." And then poked his pinky finger before he started twisting his finger inside his ear and then wrenched it out and said, " Repeat what you said."

" She is asking for a hundred oak and hundred maple tree seeds, your highness." Li Wan knew that his master was having a hard time believing that instead of asking him on a date, Miss Mo Xifeng was asking him. For seeds. The difference between reality and fantasy was like heaven and hell.

Qi Hong stayed silent for a long time before he cupped his cheeks and gushed again, " Oh I see, she wants to prepare a greenhouse for me since she knows that I like the solitude between trees and flowers. This is so chivalrous, I expect nothing less than from a woman who was rumoured to become the youngest mecha morph!"

Li Wan, who was being used as a muscle wall for the miniature hearts to bounce around waved his hands to the side and asked blankly, " So are we going to send the seeds, your Highness?"

" Of course, we are," Qi Hong was the most doted among the imperial family members, his family might not have time to spend with him but they often gave him what he liked and he had several seeds that he could gift as he pleased, though they were rare, he will not hold back from showing his intentions to the woman who was pursuing him!

" Send her the seeds and even send her some corn kernels that we got as a gift from the Red Star!" Qi Hong was rather generous given that he thought that the woman who was pursuing him was Mo Xifeng. " We cannot let her chivalrous intentions go to waste."

Li Wan was not surprised by Qi Hong's generous actions but he still pursed his lips and said, " But your highness, Miss Mo Xifeng is the daughter of a traitor, if her majesty finds out then…"

" You fool," Qi Hong's voice suddenly became stern as he turned to look at his butler and said, " Do you think that Imperial mother is an idiot who will be fooled by the likes of the Wei family? She only sent General Mo Yan away because she knew that it was the only way to save the life of her family or else the Wei family would have killed them all."

" And in case what you are saying does happen, then don't you think it will be even more romantic?" The seriousness in his voice dropped as he pressed his hands on his chest and then with a longing expression said, " A traitor's daughter and the Imperial prince, our love story will go down in history, like Rosetta and James."

Li Wan stared at his love-blind prince and then said with a blank voice, " It was a tragic love story of two teenagers, your Highness."

" Oh hush, let me dream a little."
