Doted By The Regent King Chapter 1623 - 1561: Maritime Return Voyage

After cuddling for a while, Ah Jiu finally let her go and continued with the topic.

"This ti, I’ll propose, settle our matters, exchange our Betrothal Letters. Once your mother gives birth and completes her confinent, I’ll co to pick you up next year. What do you think?" Ah Jiu asked.

Wufu liked this negotiating tone, proving that the other respects her, so she said, "Sure, I’ll listen to you."

Ah Jiu smiled, curving his fingers to caress her face, his heart full to the brim.

Wufu took his hand off and said, "We can set aside the engagent for now, what can’t wait is you. Ah Jiu, we’ll set out for the Miao Village tomorrow."

Ah Jiu’s smiling face stiffened slightly.

"If this bug isn’t removed, how can we get married?" Wufu gently poked his chest.

"Wufu, do you have sothing you haven’t told ?" Ah Jiu asked, staring into her eyes.

Wufu’s heart skipped a beat, and she pretended to be puzzled, asking, "What is it?"

"Wufu, you know, right? Actually, when you’re hiding sothing, your eyes tend to glance to the right."

Wufu’s eyes widened. Was that true?

"So, what is it?" Ah Jiu asked, holding her hand tightly.

Wufu thought for a mont and said, "This ti, your attack was fiercer and lasted longer than the last ti. Xiao Bai also said the acupuncture took a long ti. It’s said that things happen in threes, I’m afraid you won’t endure this third attack."

"That’s all?"

"What more do you want? Ah Jiu, I don’t want to gain a reputation as a widow before even getting married. Ah, spit, spit, what I said doesn’t count!" Wufu patted her own mouth.

Ah Jiu pulled her hand down: "Don’t hit yourself, just saying it won’t make it true."

Wufu laughed awkwardly a few tis and said, "Anyway, we’re setting off tomorrow."

"Okay."

Only then did Wufu sigh with relief and cuddle up to kiss him, but a cough ca from the doorway.

"Co in and report," Ah Jiu sat upright.

Yuan Ye walked in, respectfully saluted the two, and said, "Lord, Miss, i San has returned."

"What, so soon?" Wufu raised an eyebrow. "Wasn’t it said, even if fast, it would be the end of the year before returning?"

Back then, when the ship set sail, Wufu had sent i San to follow up. According to the plan, it wouldn’t return till the end of the year. How co it’s only October, and he’s already back?

"Have him co in and report," Ah Jiu said.

Yuan Ye responded and soon brought i San in.

"i San greets Lord, greets Miss," i San knelt on one knee to salute both.

Ah Jiu looked at his face, black as charcoal, and couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth a few tis.

"i San, how did you get so tanned, your face looks like the bottom of a pot," Wufu said with a look of disdain.

Isn’t it all thanks to you? i San thought to himself. As a Hidden Guard, responsible for gathering intelligence and protecting the master, he had now turned into a businessman.

"Miss, having sailed on the sea for so long, how could I not be tanned?" i San said bitterly.

Wufu awkwardly touched her nose and said, "I forgot for a mont. Why did you return from the sea voyage so quickly this ti? Where’s the main fleet?"

i San smiled, "This year, the sea weather has been perfect, hardly any bad weather. Even Thirteenth Lady Xiao said that in her many years as a pirate, she hadn’t seen such good weather, so the return was particularly smooth!"

"So, you made a big profit?" Wufu’s eyes imdiately sparkled like stars.

"Fortunate not to disappoint!" i San cupped his hands, his face full of smiles.
