Bab 258: Guarantee

"You, on the other hand, are the complete opposite. Power, family background, status, and money, you don't care about any of those. You do whatever you want and like whoever you like. But you value friendship and loyalty greatly. I can't help but fall in love with you. Nanxing, you're my idol!" Princess Mai Qi lavished praises on me.

"I'm surprised that you would value me so greatly in your heart!" I laughed and punched her jokingly.

Mai Qi sighed, "I'm serious. I really envy you!"

I said, "What is there for you to envy? You have everything I have and more."

Mai Qi shook her head. "That's not true. I can give up everything just for the freedom that you have."

I looked at Mai Qi and almost blurted out the secret. But I forced it back. Even if I gave her freedom now, she wouldn't know how to use it. I should wait until the critical moment, then she would really appreciate the person who allowed her to be free.
