Chapter 533: Feelings x Methods

"What a headache! I didn't expect that this iceberg that has never melted for thousands of years would melt one day." Grandma New looked at Hancock's back, not knowing whether to be happy or sad.

"Granny New, what kind of disease does my elder sister have? Why is it so strange?" Marigrude turned her head and looked at Granny New.

Granny New sighed and explained, "If I'm not mistaken, Snake Princess should get 'Lovesickness'."

"Huh?" Sandasonia and Marigrude were confused.

"How is it possible?" Sandasonia said in disbelief.

"It should be correct! For some reason, Snake Princess developed feelings for Xia Jieren, and when she thought that he would be leaving Amazon Lily soon, she became ill." Grandma New analyzed.

"Master Xia Jieren killed the Tianlong people!"

"Master Xia Jieren cured the scars on my sister and our backs!"

After hearing Grandma New's explanation, the two sisters roughly understood why their elder sister had such feelings.

Granny New caught a glimpse of the two people's expressions and asked curiously, "Do you know the reason?"

Sanda Sonya looked around and saw that there were no outsiders, so she whispered: "Master Xia Jieren brought an ointment that cured my sister and the one behind us..."

When she said this, Sandasonia's tone was full of joy.

Marigrude smiled and nodded.

From then on, the three sisters no longer had to live in fear of their lies being exposed.

"So that's it! No wonder..." After hearing the reason, Grandma New suddenly realized.

[Nine Snakes Castle] Entrance.

Xia Jieren saw Hancock standing at the door waiting from a distance. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Eh~, isn't Hancock sick?"

At the same time, he was also slightly disappointed: "Ah... It seems that I thought too much. How could I be treated as the child of destiny?"

Walking closer, Xia Jieren asked with concern: "Hancock, I heard you were sick! Are you okay?"

"I'm fine!" Hancock stared at Xia Jieren and smiled gently.

At this moment, Xia Jieren and Hancock were not in the mood to attend the party, so they came to the balcony together. Facing the warm sea breeze, they chatted intermittently.

Xia Jieren was not the kind of person who was good at speaking. In order to find a common topic, Xia Jieren talked about his general plan for the [World Government] and promised to help [Amazon Lily] solve the resource problem.

Hancock nodded repeatedly without any objection.

Xia Jieren sensed something was wrong, he turned his head and asked, "Hancock... are you listening?"

"Hancock!"

"Ah~" Hearing Xia Jieren's call, Hancock came back to his senses from his trance: "I'm listening!"

Seeing this, Xia Jieren sighed helplessly, thinking that the topic he had found was too boring.

The two stayed on the balcony for a while.

Seeing that it was getting late, Xia Jieren planned to say goodbye: "Hancock, I have almost finished my work at Amazon Lily. I plan to go back in two days."

"Ah! Why? Is it that we didn't treat you well enough?" Hancock exclaimed in surprise with a complicated expression.

Xia Jieren shook his head and said, "No!"

Seeing Hancock's reluctant expression, Xia Jieren was somewhat happy. He explained, "I still need to train and improve my strength, and there are still many things waiting for me to do!"

Hearing this, Hancock pursed her lips, her eyes full of regret: "Okay!"

"Then...goodbye!" Xia Jieren waved his hand and walked away.

At this moment, Xia Jieren suddenly felt a soft touch on his back, and a pair of slender arms suddenly wrapped around his chest.

"Han...Hancock..." Xia Jieren was stunned. He never expected Hancock to be so bold.

Not to mention Xia Jieren didn't expect it, Hancock didn't expect that she would do this. When she reacted, her pretty face suddenly flushed.

Hancock's body trembled slightly, but she soon calmed down and thanked him sincerely again: "Thank you...you...Master Jieren..."

Xia Jieren enjoyed the wonderful touch from behind and said subconsciously: "No...it's okay!"

After a while, Hancock withdrew his hand and took two or three steps back.

Seeing this, Xia Jieren was slightly disappointed.

Hancock lowered her head in embarrassment, not daring to look directly at Xia Jieren.

Xia Jieren obviously knew this too.

"See you tomorrow!"

After saying this, Xia Jieren's figure disappeared into the night.

After Xia Jieren left, Hancock collapsed on the ground, her cheeks burning: "How could I...how could I...do that?"

After calming down a little, Hancock summoned Sandasonia, Marigrude and Granny New.

Before they reached the bedroom, Hancock became weak again. She felt very distressed when she thought that Xia Jieren would leave tomorrow.

At this time, Hancock did not despise Grandma New, and revealed her thoughts and feelings one by one.

"What an injustice!" Granny New sighed, and then said with certainty: "Confirmed! Snake Princess, you are suffering from 'lovesickness'!"

"How could it be!" Sandasonia and Marigrude were horrified and looked at their sister in disbelief.

Just now, Granny New has introduced in detail what "lovesickness" is and how terrible it is.

"Master Xia Jieren will leave tomorrow, so...sister..." Sandasonia was very worried.

Granny New sighed and said, "Ah...Snake Princess will be in great pain until..."

Hearing this, Marigrud could no longer sit still. She shouted, "No! We must stop him from leaving at all costs!"

"How to stop him? Use force? He is our benefactor!" Sandasonia was very conflicted.

"No! We must not do anything bad to Lord Jerren!" Hancock sat up suddenly.

"Sister...but you..." Marigrud said at a loss.

Hancock forced a smile and said, "I'm fine!"

"Don't panic! Things haven't reached a point of no return!" Granny New knocked on the floor to attract everyone's attention. "As Sanda Sonya said, we can't use force... Even if we use force, the strength of Xia Jieren and the other three is not something that Nine Snake Island can withstand..."

"Mother-in-law New, if you have any solution, please tell us now! We are so anxious!" Marigrud interrupted directly.

Granny Niu coughed lightly and said slowly, "If you ask me, we can just confess everything directly. I'm sure Xia Jieren won't disagree. You know, men are... very lustful."

"Xia Jieren will definitely not reject a beauty like Hancock. No, maybe the reason why Xia Jieren found us to cooperate is for Snake Queen!" Grandma New stared at Hancock and said with certainty.
