Xiao Rong blushed after hearing so many praises about her from Jayden's mouth, she couldn't hide a big smile from appearing on her face but no one noticed it since all of them were currently looking at Jayden, with wide eyes after listening to his last words.
Dong was enraged since Jayden had openly made fun of the king, through gritted teeth he shouted:
" Do you know just what non sense you are spouting? These words are enough to put you in the prison- "
Jayden didn't seem to care about his outburst as he lazily said:
" Why are you getting so hyper at least listen to me properly, so I was saying that no ordinary man is suitable for someone like Xiao, don't you agree? "
Dong wanted to rebuke him, but in the end, he just nodded his head since his words were reasonable. Then Jayden continued:
" By those words, I don't mean that the king is just an average guy or anything, but I just want to say that a perfect girl like her deserves the best, so we have decided to hold a competition two months later to find the best groom for her. What are your thoughts on this? "
Jayden asked with a small smile. Dong was surprised by his word game, but he wasn't going to fall into his trap so easily, shaking his head he spoke:
" There is no need to waste time over such things, who would be a better groom for her than the king himself, so I suggest that we stop with these useless formalities. "
Jayden was already expecting those words, he was still smiling making Dong a bit nervous.
" Hmm, it seems you are right, the king is the most special man in this Kingdom after all, so we shouldn't waste our time on these things. "
Jayden said after a few moments, Lao and Xiao didn't seem surprised by his words, they knew what he wanted to do exactly.
But Dong was taken aback by his words, he couldn't believe that Jayden changed his decision so easily, but he couldn't ask for something better he smiled sensing that his task was almost successful, just as he was about to speak Jayden interrupted him:
" But... " Just after one word he fell silent, Dong felt that something was wrong as he asked:
" There was nothing here. Why, did you come here by a carriage? " Jayden asked innocently.
All of the carriages have disappeared along with the gifts present in them, all those gifts were very expensive since they were herbs and Treasures, and for some reason, Lao and Xiao felt that it was Jayden's doing.
Dong frowned and looked at the guards who shook their heads in response since they couldn't trace the aura of people guarding the carriages, after all the carriages had already gone quite far away.
Dong was getting impatient,and began to panic he was constantly trying to contact them through the jade plate.
" Maybe they returned to the castle or maybe they ran away. " Jayden said from the side.
Dong felt that it was possible for them to run away with all that treasure, he looked at his guards and began to order something, then he took out several jade plates and began contacting different people, while Jayden turned and began walking back into the house followed by both the women.
After entering he went straight to one of the rooms inside the house, which was filled with various treasures and cultivation materials.
" I knew it, you are the one who did it hehe. " Xiao Rong said with a laugh, while Lao seemed afraid of the consequences if they were to be caught.
" Will it be alright? What if they find out that we have them? " Lao Rong gave sounds to her worries.
" Don't worry about that, both of you can use these resources, I'm sure they will last for more than six months. " Jayden said non challantly.
Taking them in her spatial ring, Lao Rong turned to Jayden and asks: " Do you have any plans about the competition? "
Jayden shrugged and responded: " What's there to plan, I will beat everyone there and win the competition. "
Shaking her hand, she spoke: " Even if you are very strong, I'm sure the king is going to use under handed methods, we have to think of something. "
