Previously, this wisp of will had always thought that he himself was too weak to contend with Kanzaki Hikaru's true thoughts.
However, after several encounters, this wisp of will discovered the mystery behind this power.
This subtle fragrance, so captivating, has been eroding Kanzaki Teru's will every day.
Without hesitation, the remaining willpower slowly inputted ideas into Haha's brain. (Zhao Ma's)
Kanzaki Teru, who was still fast asleep, was suddenly awakened at this moment.
I sneezed three or four times in a row.
"¨々Ah autumn! Ah autumn! Ah autumn!"
This startled Princess Gaoyue, who was sleeping next to him.
Although Princess Gaoyue was still sleepy, she immediately got up.
"What's wrong, Hui? Are you feeling unwell?"
Kanzaki Teru was a little dazed by those sneezes, and a short film flashed through his mind for about half a second.
However, she quickly came to her senses, rubbed her nose which was still itchy from sneezing.
"I feel fine, Chitaki, don't worry."
"I find this smell really pungent!"
"Ah Qiu!".
Chapter 178: Consciousness Returns
This sneeze seemed to further aid Kanzaki Teru, illustrating the intense discomfort he was experiencing.
To figure out what was going on, Kanzaki Teru sniffed hard with his nose again.
Then his eyes swept around the room before settling on the incense burner in front of him.
Pointing to the incense burner in front of him, he told Princess Gaoyue.
"Qianlong, I think it's like the incense in the incense burner."
Kanzaki Teru wasn't finished yet; he got up and walked to the incense burner.
He bent down and took a deep sniff.
"Ah Qiu!"
Another earth-shattering sneeze.
This directly proves that Kanzaki Teru was not lying at all.
Kanzaki Teru was still beaming with joy! They had finally found the culprit, and everything had been fine for the past few days, but then a major mishap occurred tonight.
These past few days, Kanzaki Teru has been acting like a spoiled young master, a complete departure from his usual ways.
He directly told the servants to remove the incense burner 740 from his possession.
"That's the taste! Someone, take it away!"
Princess Takazuki, who had been observing all along, could no longer sit still and quickly got up to comfort Kanzaki Teru.
"This incense burner has always been here. The spices inside were blended by a professional hired by my father and mother."
"You used to have nightmares, but after using this spice, you were able to sleep peacefully."
"Although you rarely get sick, this aromatherapy has been quite helpful whenever you do."
“If you remove the incense burner like this, your father and mother will definitely be heartbroken. Besides, this project has been with you for so long without any problems. It might not be him.”
Princess Gaoyue hurriedly tried to defend the incense burner from various angles.
Princess Gaoyue's heart was in turmoil, for she knew what this incense burner meant.
After they leave, Kanzaki Teru will be a difficult opponent.
After saying so much, Kanzaki Teru remained expressionless and steadfastly beside the incense burner.
They seemed unmoved and remained very determined to remove the incense burner.
"Qianlong, your father and mother are not petty people. They did this for my health. Now that it has harmed my health, their withdrawal is for my own good."
"I think my father and mother will understand. This thing is really making me uncomfortable."
After saying that, Kanzaki Teru even pinched his nose, completely forgetting how fascinated he had been by the fragrance just a few days ago.
They now scoff at it!
Princess Takayuki also noticed the displeasure on Kanzaki Teru's face and guessed his inner thoughts, and began to resist the incense burner.
However, all of this happened so suddenly that Princess Gaoyue was not prepared to take any precautions.
Princess Gao Yue had no choice but to use both soft and hard tactics to save the incense burner first.
Princess Takazuki went to Kanzaki Hiroshi's side first and pulled him to sit on the bed.
"If you feel uncomfortable with his smell, then stay away from him."
If you say something that goes along with Kanzaki Hikaru's wishes first, he will be more likely to listen to what you say next.
Princess Gaoyue is now carefully planning every step she takes.
Kanzaki Teru felt much happier after hearing Princess Takatsuki say that.
"That's right, we need to get him out of here quickly!"
"The whole room smells like this, we need to air it out."
"How about we don't sleep here tonight? Chitaki, let's go stay in the west wing."
"This smell won't dissipate anytime soon. If I fall asleep in this blind date room, I don't know if I'll even be able to open my eyes tomorrow morning."
Kanzaki Teru kept waving his hand in front of his nose, trying to prevent the fragrance from entering.
Princess Gaoyue quickly took out her handkerchief and fanned herself in front of him.
Princess Gaoyue knew that persuading them now would be extremely difficult, but she was determined to give it her all.
"Let's not do anything tonight, Hui, I'm so sleepy."
"Just bear with me for a bit, okay? Once the servants leave, this stove is keeping me completely awake!"
"I can turn this stove on anytime. If I can't sleep now, I'll have huge dark circles under my eyes tomorrow, and I'll look awful."
Princess Gaoyue pretended to be angry, gave a soft hum, and turned her back, looking just like a sulking hamster.
Seeing this, Kanzaki Teru's resolve began to waver again.
They were about to grant Princess Gaoyue's request.
But I just couldn't bring myself to say the word "good".
The desire to remove the stove became even stronger, so strong that it overshadowed any thought of obeying Princess Gaoyue.
Kanzaki Teru struggled internally for a few seconds.
Ultimately, it was the remaining will that prevailed over the desire to submit to Princess Gaoyue.
However, Kanzaki Teru spoke gently and coaxed Princess Takatsuki.
"Chitaki, don't be angry. Let's go sleep in the west wing so we won't be disturbed."
"Are you just going to watch me die from this smell?"
"I can't bear to see you live a life of widowhood at such a young age; then I would be remembered as a heartless man by the world."
Chapter 179: Removing a Major Obstacle
Princess Gaoyue probably didn't expect things to go so badly.
These past few days, he's been using aromatherapy, which has basically eroded Kanzaki Hikaru's mind.
And this can also be seen through very obvious and intuitive reactions.
When he first arrived, Kanzaki Teru was so eager to know everything about this place.
Later, they were completely captivated and indulged in this comfortable world.
No matter who comes to see it, they will definitely think that Kanzaki Teru has let go and that his inner obsession is going to settle down here for a long time.
Who knew the changes would happen so quickly? In just one night, a person had changed so drastically.
Princess Gaoyue is not worried about the consequences of removing the incense burner.
What frightened him even more was that Kanzaki Teru removed the incense burner by feigning ignorance, leaving them speechless.
Princess Gaoyue was very uneasy. She didn't know if this was a coincidence or if Kanzaki Teru had already discovered the secret of the incense burner.
Continuing to insist now would be pointless, and Princess Gaoyue, being an extremely clever person, readily agreed with Haha's suggestion.
"Alright then! Let's go sleep there!"
Further arguments now would only have a negative effect.
Princess Takazuki can only play along for now, taking it one step at a time and slowly exploring whether Kanzaki Hikaru has discovered the secret here.
When Kanzaki Teru heard that Princess Takatsuki had complied with his wishes, the weight on his heart finally lifted.
He himself didn't understand. He had just wanted to say "okay," and he had already completely agreed with Princess Gaoyue's statement.
However, the fragrance, as it seeped into Kanzaki Teru's lungs, was indeed an unpleasant sensation that was hard to ignore.
Kanzaki Teru, when smelling this fragrance in this room before, never had this feeling at all.
He himself found it strange, but couldn't find any clues.
"As expected, my Chitaki is the most understanding."
The servant I had just called was already waiting at the door.
"Let's remove this incense burner and let the room air out. Open all the windows and doors; I won't be staying here tonight."
After saying that, Kanzaki Teru picked up a cloak from the shelf next to him and draped it over Princess Takazuki's shoulders.
After the servants responded, they began to get to work.
Princess Takazuki and Kanzaki Teru also came to the west wing as their lodging for the night.
Although it was a side room, it was still luxurious and exquisite, and it didn't look old because it was cleaned every day.
