Chapter 916: Definitely, confident

The carriage where Xiao Tianyao, Lin Chujiu, and the young prince were soon carried onto the boat. After boarding the boat, the bandits did not untie them. However, water and food were delivered once in a while. Lin Chujiu and the young prince were hesitant, but still ate in the end!

They don’t know how long they will be imprisoned by these bandits. If it will be a long time, they won’t be able to bear without eating or drinking. And if they want to escape, they won’t have enough strength.

However, Xiao Tianyao didn’t eat. He didn’t touch whether it was water or food. His attitude was cold and arrogant, which almost angered the bandits.

Lin Chujiu sat quietly at the side. Although she could hear, she couldn’t see anything, and she didn’t dare to make decisions for Xiao Tianyao on her own, so she could only worry.

The young prince, Xuanyuan Yu, originally wanted to persuade him. Eating at this time was important, but after thinking about it, he shut up again.

These two people experienced more things than him in terms of age. Why a child like him should be worried about them?

Xiao Tianyao insisted on not eating, maybe he had some problem.

The young prince was someone who couldn’t hide things. As soon as the food-feeding bandit went out, he immediately asked in a low voice: “Is there something wrong with the water and food?” Otherwise, why would Xiao Tianyao refuse to eat?

“No problem.” It was still Lin Chujiu who answered him, Xiao Tianyao would never answer such a naive question.

“No problem, then why doesn’t Xiao Wangye eat?” They might be imprisoned for a long time. They wouldn’t be able to bear it without eating or drinking.

“He…” Lin Chujiu hesitated for a moment before saying: “Perhaps he is not hungry.”

After being married to Xiao Tianyao for so long, Lin Chujiu thought that she still understood him. Xiao Tianyao’s refusal to eat was not because he was not hungry or thirsty. It must be because it was too dirty.

This man has mysophobia, but it was not serious. He can tolerate it under normal circumstances. However, he cannot tolerate the food that goes into his mouth that is not clean enough, and he will not force himself to tolerate it.

The bandit directly fed them steamed buns with his bare hand. If Xiao Tianyao eats them, he must be a ghost.

“Oh.” The simple young prince didn’t think much and naturally accepted Lin Chujiu’s reasons.

The young prince doesn’t think much about it, but Xiao Tianyao feels embarrassed. For the first time, he felt that he, who doesn’t like the food in his mouth to be touched by others was a very hypocritical habit. He was more coquettish than a woman or a child.

However, there seems to be no way to explain this kind of thing. If he tells Lin Chujiu right now that he is not thirsty or hungry, and not because he feels it is dirty, wouldn’t she believe?

The three of them were silent again. While sitting quietly in the carriage, each of them was engrossed in their world.

Time passed by, and Lin Chujiu calculated silently that they should have traveled for another three hours after boarding the boat. It was estimated that it would be past noon, but… no one brought them food and water.

“I want to relieve myself.” The young prince held it in for a long time, but he couldn’t hold it in any longer.

It has been almost a day and a night, how can he continue to bear it?

“Uh… I’ll try to call someone.” Lin Chujiu didn’t think about it, but when the young prince mentioned it, Lin Chujiu suddenly wanted to relieve herself.

Sure enough, drinking water and eating was a troublesome thing. Thinking that Xiao Tianyao doesn’t eat or drink, seems it be because he doesn’t want to urinate.

Lin Chujiu shouted a few times before someone came over immediately and said angrily: “What’s the matter?”

“We need to relieve ourselves.” It was human nature to eat, drink, and defecate. Lin Chujiu didn’t feel any embarrassment. She said it straightforwardly. She was so generous, but the other party hesitated: “What? What? Do you want to relieve yourself? Um…just wait, I, I’ll go ask.”

After saying that, he ran away. Lin Chujiu was stunned for a moment: “Is there something wrong with what I said?”

“You’re so direct!” The young prince complained with a red face. As the young prince of the Central Empire, he had never told others directly that he was going to relieve himself like Lin Chujiu. He felt shy… … just by thinking about it.

“It’s okay.” At the critical moment, one’s people were one’s own. Xiao Tianyao patted Lin Chujiu’s arm and comforted her in a low voice.

Not long after, someone came over, but instead of telling them that they could urinate, they said angrily: “If you can’t bear it any longer, just pee in your pants. We don’t mind it.”

“What did you say? Say it again!” Xiao Tianyao, who had not spoken since getting on the boat, said coldly. Although his eyes were covered with black cloth, he still “looked” at the other party accurately.

“I said, I said…” The bandit stammered and could not utter a word. Under Xiao Tianyao’s pressure, he could not dare to repeat what he just said. In the end, he only said weakly: “I said there are many inconveniences on the ship. If you want to relieve yourself, just stand on the boat and urinate in front of the sea… okay?”

In the end, he asked cautiously.

“Forget it, it’s better not to use it.” When the young prince heard this, he immediately refused.

Relieving himself in front of the sea under the supervision of a group of bandits?

He can’t do it.

Let alone Lin Chujiu, even if she could do it “shamelessly”, Xiao Tianyao would not agree.

The matter of urinating was settled, but under the pressure of Xiao Tianyao, the bandit added: “If you can bear with it, bear with it as long as you can. We will be on the shore in another hour, you will be able to urinate by then.”

With these words, Lin Chujiu and the young prince were finally satisfied.

Isn’t it just an hour, they can bear it.

“You can go.” After asking for what he needed, Xiao Tianyao told him to get out of there without any sense of being a prisoner, but the bandit was still obedient.

The young prince silently wrote it down in his heart, and he decided to follow in his footsteps in the future.

As soon as the bandits left, Lin Chujiu asked in a low voice: “Your Highness, is the inn very close to the sea? Are you familiar with this sea area? What island can you reach in 4 hours of driving? Is that island still within the jurisdiction of the Central Empire?”

Neither Lin Chujiu nor Xiao Tianyao understood the topography of the empire, so they could only ask the insider. However, the young prince was also someone who couldn’t get out of the palace easily. Faced with Lin Chujiu’s question, the young prince looked at a loss: “I have no idea.”

If he knows how to do this, he doesn’t need to go out to learn more.

“This is the territory of the Central Empire, you don’t know anything?” Lin Chujiu couldn’t help but raise her voice.

Was he the prince of the Central Empire? As a member of the royal family, wasn’t the first thing to do to know the territory of their country?

Why does this prince don’t know anything?

“No one taught me this.” The little prince said confidently, and Lin Chujiu was speechless for a moment: “You won!”

Lin Chujiu shut up angrily, while Xiao Tianyao smiled. Hearing Lin Chujiu snort unhappily, Xiao Tianyao added: “I said, don’t worry, with benwang here, I won’t let them hurt you.”

Even with his determined and confident tone, Lin Chujiu doesn’t believe it… …
