Quick Wear: The Sickly Boss Is Addicted to Spoiling Me

Chapter 820: The Scheming Little Emperor x the Cruel and Merciless Regent 9

Qi Zhi really had no way to refute this statement. After all, the little emperor's temperament was really cultivated by him.

Qi Zhi pondered secretly, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, his eyes full of helplessness and pampering.

"Oh, by the way, Uncle, I must remind you that my 18th birthday will be in a month or two. You said you would give me a very big gift on this day, so don't forget it."

Shen Xi blinked his bright eyes and spoke in a somewhat coquettish tone, his eyes full of anticipation.

When Qi Zhi first heard this, he was confused and puzzled. But after thinking for a while, his memories came flooding back, and he remembered that he had agreed to it on the night when Shen Xi was 16 years old and drunk.

That day was Shen Xi's 16th birthday, but Qi Zhi was busy with court affairs and neglected to prepare a gift.

Shen Xi was full of disappointment and drank to relieve his sorrow. After a few drinks, he started to act crazy. His cheeks were flushed, his eyes were blurred, and he pulled Qi Zhi's sleeves and kept mumbling. Qi Zhi was pestered by him and had no choice but to agree to give him a big gift on his 18th birthday in order to appease this little ancestor.

If Shen Xi hadn't brought it up at this moment, Qi Zhi would have really forgotten about this matter.

But now, he couldn't admit that he had forgotten. If he was to be honest, with the little emperor's temper, who knows how long he would make a fuss.

So Qi Zhi looked calm and said firmly: "Of course, I promised your Majesty that I will definitely not forget it."

"That's good." Shen Xi nodded with satisfaction. As he spoke, he elegantly raised the cup of tea in his hand to his lips, tilted his head back and drank it all in one gulp. His movements were smooth and natural.

"Let's go and continue practicing archery. Otherwise, my first autumn hunt will be embarrassing." Shen Xi put down the teacup, stood up, and his eyes revealed a spirit of not admitting defeat.

"Your Majesty has done a good job. It won't embarrass you." Qi Zhi consoled with a smile. Although he said this, he quickly stood up and followed Shen Xi closely as they walked towards the archery range.

"It's not enough. If I don't catch enough prey, it's fine if others say something about me, but I'm worried that they will say something about the emperor's uncle behind my back."

As Shen Xi spoke with a beaming expression on his face, he quickly drew the bow and pulled the string, shooting another arrow in one smooth motion.

The sharp arrow came with a sharp sound of wind, and rushed away like a black lightning, hitting the center of the bull's eye steadily.

The tail of the arrow was still trembling slightly, demonstrating the accuracy of the arrow.

"Uncle, look at how awesome I am."

Shen Xi's face was full of pride and his eyes were shining. Like a child eager to be praised, he couldn't wait to take credit from Qi Zhi.

"sharp."

As night fell and the lights came on, Shen Xi, after finishing the affairs in the imperial study, slowly returned to the palace where he lived.

He has gradually grown up, and he has mastered most of the art of governing a country, the civil and military strategies that Qi Zhi taught him carefully.

In fact, he already knew some of these skills, so he found it easy to learn and made rapid progress.

Qi Zhi didn't know the reason, he just thought he was gifted and intelligent.

However, this also brought a disadvantage that made Shen Xi feel a little disappointed. As he became more successful in his studies, Qi Zhi no longer stayed in the palace every day and patiently taught him until late at night as he did before.

Nowadays, Qi Zhi rarely stayed in the palace. Shen Xi stepped into the empty room, and an indescribable feeling of loneliness instantly enveloped him.

Memories of the past flooded into his mind like a tide. In the past, Qi Zhi would always stay quietly by his bed after he fell asleep, and would not leave until very late to go to his temporary residence to rest.

"If I could be with him, he would stay in this bed with me forever." Shen Xi murmured softly, his heart full of desire. "But this favorability is stuck at 60% and can't be raised. It seems that I still have to give him a strong dose of medicine."

While he was muttering to himself, Wangcai had already walked out of the mission space.

"Brother, 60% favorability is not low. I think you can just confess your feelings on your 18th birthday. Maybe he will agree."

Faced with his proposal, Shen Xi neither agreed nor disagreed.

"Of course I knew that was a good time, but the prerequisite was that I had to let him know that he loved me before I could successfully express my feelings.

Maybe it could be the other way around, and he confessed his love to me on that day."

This 60% favorability is neither high nor low.

This isn't high enough to allow the main character to express his feelings directly.

This was not low enough for Shen Xi to confess his feelings, and there was no chance of being accepted.

"Is this okay?"

Shen Xi raised his hand and knocked Wangcai on the head.

"It's definitely not possible now. 60% favorability is not enough. Didn't I tell you that I have to give you a strong dose of medicine?"
