Priceless Baby’s Super Daddy-Chapter 1609 - He Needs You
Chapter 1609: He Needs You
“No. Miss Jin, please do not misunderstand us. The king sent us here to invite you back to work.”
They told her the purpose.
Jing Xi thought she’d misheard it. “How could that be possible? Is this a mistake? How could the king be asking for me?”
Jing Xi wondered if the king was trying to arrest and kill her.
“It was indeed His Majesty who sent us here for you. The reason for inviting Miss Jin back to work is mainly because of His Highness. He needs you.”
“…”
Jing Xi finally realized why. It was for the sake of the little prince that the king had to send for her.
But she felt much better selling kites together with Niuniu now, and would rather not go back to the palace.
It made her shudder even to think of the king’s frozen poker face and his biting look.
That was too depressing for her.
Furthermore, the woman called Yao Zheng had deliberately framed her.
Never mind. She would rather stay here and sell kites.
Having made up her mind, Jing Xi rejected politely. “My apologies. Please report to the king that I’ve found a new job and would rather not go back there. I’m very sorry. You should try to look for someone else.”
Seeing that she was really reluctant, they asked again, “Miss Jin, is that because of the wage? As long as you are willing to come back, His Majesty said you could ask for whatever you wanted.”
“No, no, no. It was not about money. I don’t think I’m suitable for that position. That’s why I do not want to go back. As for the money I owe you, I will try to pay it back as soon as possible.”
“Alright. We’ll report to the King. Goodbye, Miss Jin!”
Jing Xi was so resolute that they did not try to convince her further. They respected her choice and went back to the king.
Inside the Triumph Palace, they came back to report to the king.
Hearing that Jin Xiaoxi had rejected the job and higher wage, Huo Yunshen could not help wondering.
“What new job did she find?” he asked.
“We did not ask.”
“Go check it out.”
“Yes!”
Huo Yunshen did want to know what job could be better than the one they offered in the palace.
Was that really because she had a new job?
Or was it because what he did last time had scared her?
At least Huo Yunshen realized that Jin Xiaoxi was not money-oriented. Otherwise, she would never give up any chance like this.
His men went again and came back the day after. “Your Majesty, Miss Jin is selling kites in front of the Longhua Park every day.”
“What? Selling kites?”
Huo Yunshen was stunned. How could that be better than working in the palace?
So Jin Xiaoxi was not that stupid. At least she did not have any inappropriate ambitions since she’d been driven away.
She would not take it even if he sent for her with a higher wage. It seemed she was determined to never come back.
But he had to get her back for the boy!
For his son’s sake, Huo Yunshen decided to forget about what she’d done previously. He ordered, “Get the car ready.”
…
In front of the Longhua Park, people were constantly coming and going.
Jing Xi sat near the gate in front of her stall. Whenever some tourists passed by, she would introduce the kites for her customers patiently.
She had not brought little Tieniu today. He seemed to have caught a cold, so she asked him to stay at home with his father.
While she was feeling a bit bored, some cars pulled over and two groups of people ran out of them and surrounded the gate.
