Hua Manman stared at him, her eyes wide with disbelief.
'He... he actually agreed?!'
Her dazed, foolish expression pleased Li Ji, slightly improving his mood.
After taking the medicine bottle, he sniffed it casually.
"Mm, its effect is quite good."
Then, he brazenly tucked the bottle of Wind Oil Essence into his sleeve, claiming it as his own.
Hua Manman was dumbfounded.
'What the hell? You can't just do that!'
'There are still five days left on this journey. My life depends on that bottle of Wind Oil Essence!'
She held back for as long as she could, but finally couldn't stop herself from asking.
"Regent Prince, that... can you give that back to me?"
Li Ji feigned ignorance. "What 'that'?"
Hua Manman extended a slender, pale finger, pointed at his sleeve, and reminded him in a small voice.
"The Wind Oil Essence."
Li Ji's thin lips curved into a cold smile.
"I've taken quite a liking to this Wind Oil Essence. I can't return it to you for now."
