Chapter 365 Personal Protection

"Is there still time?" Aiden pondered Daniel's words, sensing something wasn't right about him but

couldn't put her finger on what it was.

"Hmph! Keep talking nonsense and taking advantage of me, and see if I don't confiscate these

treasures," Aiden threatened with an imposing demeanor. However, not only did Daniel not seem

scared, he was positively enthusiastic as he teased her.

"Only my wife is qualified to confiscate my things. Are you suggesting, Aiden, that you want to be

my wife?"

"In your dreams! You little devil, if I became your wife, I'd die of anger hundreds of times a day!"

"That's fine too, I have the Needle Of Seven Dragons. You die once, I'll revive you once with a

needle—a guarantee to bring you back every time."

"Get lost!" Aiden waved the root in disapproval.

"You're taking both of my treasures, Aiden. Shouldn't you give me some kind of compensation?

Otherwise, I'm just gonna stick around here today and not leave. I'll go wherever you go—personal

protection. Even if you're using the restroom or taking a shower, I'll follow you!"

"If you follow me, I'll break your legs!"

"Even with broken legs, I'll follow you with crutches or in a wheelchair."

"Then I'll just have to kill you!"

"Even dead, if I become a ghost, I'll still follow you. As a ghost, I’ll climb into your bed, even on top

of you. I'll play with you every day and guarantee you'll enjoy the ghostly version of me."

"Can't you be even a little serious?"

"In front of a celestial beauty like Aiden, even if I try to be serious, my thoughts won't stay pure! If

Aiden doesn't mind, even my body may start to misbehave."

Aiden stamped her feet in frustration but secretly enjoyed the banter. To keep Daniel from realizing

she liked his flirtations, she put on a stern face and asked, "What do you want as compensation?"

"I’d like some herbs."

"What herbs?"

Daniel began to write something on a piece of paper he picked up from the counter. His handwriting

was exquisite. The mystery luring Aiden into a state of fixation. Brittany, too, found herself drawn to

the beautiful calligraphy.

Brittany, who had learned calligraphy in school and was familiar with various fonts, noticed that

Daniel’s writing didn't belong to any known style, yet it was more beautiful than that of famous

calligraphers.

Confused and somewhat incredulous, Brittany stroked her chin. She had seen Daniel's job

application and knew that he claimed to have only completed the second grade in a rural primary

school before being expelled for putting a caterpillar down the shirt of a girl in front of him.

A person who only finished the second grade of elementary school was supposed to write like this?

After leaving Herbal Loon, she resolved to thoroughly interrogate him. There must be something

fishy about this so-called country bumpkin, and his job application didn't seem truthful.

Seeing Aiden engrossed in the list, still undecided whether to give the worthless herbs to Daniel, he

poked her gently on her slim waist with his fingertip.
