Chapter 150
“A hostage?”
“That’s right, princess.”
Huang Tianhou’s expression twisted. He had asked for a solo fight, what kind of a mess is this?
“What kind of nonsense are you talking……!”
I knew this was how Huang Tianhou would react. But I sacrificed him for this operation.
“Wait a minute, Uncle Huang.”
Princess Zhu Yingyoung raised her hand to stop Huang Tianhou, then shifted her gaze to me.
“What are you supposed to do with that?”
“It’s simple, just go back and expose yourself to the threat.”
“Is my safety guaranteed?”
“Yes. Only the best of the best will be at your side.”
Joo Young Young’s gaze meets mine.
“Mmm.”
For some reason, I think she’ll accept, and I wonder why.
What am I supposed to make of the fact that a woman who knows nothing, who is like a plant in a greenhouse, is listening to me and is willing to be my hostage?
If this plan doesn’t work, I have other plans in mind.
“Okay, but on one condition.”
A condition, I thought, as long as it didn’t cross the line. But then.
“You have to protect me yourself.”
…… Huh?
I froze. The look in the princess’s eyes told me she wasn’t joking as usual. Judging by her mood, she was serious.
But I had to ask again.
“……are you serious?”
“Only if you accept the conditions.”
“What are the conditions?”
“……Besides that.”
“What?”
At the princess’s hesitant response, I opened my ears and leaned closer to her breathing. I wondered what she was trying to say.
