"Aren't you gonna ask when I'm gonna leave?" he asked.
"No…" she said.
"Why? I was suddenly coming into the store, don't you think I was also a molester that was gonna jump on you when I'm cured?" he asked a tricky question.
"But you're not, right?" she looked at him while grinding herbs to make medicine.
"Don't you think I'll do it now? There's only both of us here, even your friend wasn't here to help you…" he threatened her.
She turned around and deeply looked into his eyes "but you're not…" that's the only thing she said that made him more curious.
"Don't you think it's weird that a molester hurt himself just to get into this old store and learn about my diary and also help me just to molest me?" she answered with a smile.
"You're right…I'm amazed many times by you today…" he said.
"I know who to make as a friend and an enemy…" she said.
"Then, you take me as a friend?" he inquired.
"Yes? I can take you as a friend but would you take me as a friend?" she replied.
"Me? Why not…an emperor be friend with a village lady~ what my mother will think about it~" he chuckled but she looked at him confusedly.
"I think I should tell you more early, I'm the emperor of Zhang's family, son of Zhang Luo, Zhang Shen~" he said smoothly and showed The royal mace.
Xiao Qi was stunned and stood immediately, she bowed and felt guilty at him.
"No, no need to do that, just do as I'm not an emperor~ just be casual~" he said and she awkwardly sat down. He does really sit behind her and after knowing about his status, she becomes afraid if anything will be wrong when it comes to royalty.
"Your majesty…" she called and he frowned.
"Call me Sir Zhang…I'm used to that…" he giggled.
"It's that allowed? I mean…can I call your majesty like that?" she asked.
"Of course you can, you'll not get executed because I gave my permission~" he answered and she sighed in relief.
"Why are you so worried? If I want to kill, I already did a long time ago with the sword right at your neck…" he said.
"Nothing, that time, I just thought you're a swordsman or fighter…I understand if you're aware of the surroundings because I used to be like that when I was taking care of my father back then…" she recalled.
"But royals wasn't something that I can fight because of my status…even with my skills, I can't fight them, that's what my father taught me…" she admitted.
"No matter how low your status is, as long as you have manners, even a royal can bow to you…" he said.
"That's what you said, Sir. How about other royals? Will they be like that?" she asked and he was stunned.
"Why didn't I think about that?" his heart whispered.
The night becomes late and Xiao Qi needs to wake up early in the morning to get some herb leaves in the forest.
"I should take my leave now, it's already late night…don't you think you should go to sleep too, Sir?" she asked him.
"No, I'll be here to enjoy the night, you can go to sleep first~" he answered.
"Then, good night Sir Zhang~" she bowed and left the backyard.
Zhang Shen looked at the full moon that was bright. He smiled while looking at it, remembering her mother at the palace who maybe waited for him to come back.
