Jing Xi blanked out for a few seconds before she realized what was happening. She quickly jumped away from Huo Yunshen and stood still like a maid.
âI... Iâm here... to... to... to ask why am I living there...â
Jing Xi asked this as she pointed at the room opposite with her reddened face facing the floor. She was too embarrassed to look at Huo Yunshenâs well-built body.
âYou will be my full-time assistant from now on.â Huo Yunshen smiled as he explained. âYou will have to be on standby for 24 hours a day. Thatâs why having you living opposite me is the best option. Do you have any problems with that?â
âWhat?â
Jing Xi hadnât had the slightest clue that sheâd become Huo Yunshenâs personal assistant.
And she felt that she wasnât up for the job either.
âBut Iâm already the princeâs nanny. Why donât you hire someone else to do the job? What if I scare you with my ugly face? Please find someone else with a better face than mine who is more suitable for this job!â
âYouâre the best for the job!â Huo Yunshen said as he forced Jing Xi back to the wall and slammed his hand on the wall. He then raised Jing Xiâs head with a finger to her chin and stared into her eyes.
âJing... Xiaoxi, you will obey the order! I believe in your abilities, and I donât care how you look! I want you to stay in the palace forever!â
Stunned by Huo Yunshenâs words, Jing Xi looked at Huo Yunshen like he was going crazy.
She thought that Huo Yunshen had only loved the late queen, and yet he was saying all those cheesy words to her.
âBut I still have to work at Kaidi. Thereâs no way I have the time to do three jobs at once!â Jing Xi argued.
âI donât see a problem there.â
The time! Jing Xi shouted in her head.
She then realized that Huo Yunshenâs eyes were turning red, and asked worriedly, âAre you feeling okay? Should I take you to the hospital?â
Jing Xi really hoped that Huo Yunshen would go to the hospital and check on his brain too.
âIâm feeling a little sick. Come and take a look at whatâs wrong with me,â Huo Yunshen said.
âBut Iâm not a doctor.â
âYou can at least check my blood pressure and body temperature, right?â
Huo Yunshen pulled his arm back before proceeding to sit down on his bed.
Jing Xi really wanted to run for the door, but her body moved on its own. She went and fetched the thermometer and sphygmomanometer.
âYouâre heating up a little,â Jing Xi said after taking Huo Yunshenâs body temperature, then proceeded to test his blood pressure.
âWhat!â Jing Xi exclaimed when she saw the numbers on the sphygmomanometer. âYour heart is beating way to fast!â
âThen that would be your fault.â
â...â
Ever since Huo Yunshen had realized that Jin Xiaoxi was Jing Xi, he had been in an excited state whenever he was awake. His dying vitality had finally regained its former glory.
Jing Xi was his miracle.
She gave him the courage to live again.
Huo Yunshen was not eager to tell Jing Xi who she really was. He wanted to win her over all over again with his patience and love.
Even if she would never regain her memory, he would just make her fall in love with him once again.
He vowed to take care of her and love her for the rest of his life.
...
Ever since Jing Xi moved into the room opposite to Huo Yunshenâs, her life had become a mess.
The only thing she tried her best to do every day was to avoid coming in contact with the king. But the king would âcoincidentallyâ run into her whenever she left her room.
