Chapter 202 - Please Don't Sell Me!

After shutting the door closed, Qu Xing Xu didn't hurry immediately to take off his robe. As far as he knows, desperate women would do anything to get what they wanted. It doesn't matter if it harms other people for as long as they are satisfied with the result.

Since the time he reached the age of an a.d.u.l.t, a lot of women would appear out of nowhere. They would cook up a scheme to get closer to him. For example that woman standing right outside his door. 

Wu Qian might be beautiful and her eyes sparkled like the ocean but Qu Xing Xu had seen extraordinary beauties that could bring down countries and start a war. Besides that, he would be an idiot if he were to accept every woman's invitation. 

There was a saying that no man could resist a womanly charm especially from a beautiful woman. However, if what was behind that charm was a garden full of snakes, Qu Xing Xu would rather find himself a muddy hole and swim in it.

Thankfully, Lin Xiaofei was not one of those women. 

And that was why he was captivated by her unusual uniqueness that was rare for a woman like her.

Sure enough, there were women who were very smart and beautiful. Calculative and seductive. 

But Lin Xiaofei was not only possessing all of these characteristics. She was unintentionally and unconsciously showing these characteristics without her knowing which were part of the reasons why Qu Xing Xu fell for her.

Falling into a deep thought, Qu Xing Xu sighed helplessly as he couldn't help but realize how much he wanted to see her.

The last time they met was the time he had to say farewell to her before coming here. And at that time was also the first time she had taken the initiative to kiss him.

Rubbing his lips with his thumb, Qu Xing Xu could remember how she tasted. If he hadn't controlled himself and if she hadn't run away quickly after kissing him, he would've forsaken his task at hand and pressed her against the wall.

Well, there's always the next time and he would make sure she wouldn't be able to run away.

…

A day ago.

Lin Xiaofei was leading Shen Mo out of the imperial palace by using the hidden passage that she found.

Actually, that passage didn't directly bring them outside but instead, the place that was revealed after passing through the hidden passage was a tunnel. Vines crept upward like crawling hands of a monster. There was no torch hanging in the wall but there was little light at the other end of the tunnel.

"Young miss, this place… where is it leading us to?" Shen Mo couldn't shut his mouth after being shocked a few times already.

"To the unmarked land." Lin Xiaofei replied nonchalantly but her words made him froze in his steps.

"The unmarked land?" Shen Mo couldn't believe what he had just heard.

The unmarked land was basically next to the unmarked grave where criminals and people with no identity were thrown here. This land was barren and it felt like it was a place where anything bad could come out. It also looked dark and eerie. Not to mention the officials and warriors that refused to buy or guard this piece of land, even the royal family didn't want to own the land as they feared that misfortune and nothing good could come out of it.

There was also the unmarked graveyard that was beside it. Precisely because it was used by people who had no choice but to bury someone or throw out a corpse anywhere, it made people think that it was an unholy place. Thus, just like the unmarked land, the graveyard was seldom visited by anyone.

That was also part of the reason why Lin Xiaofei decided to use the hidden passage. As her purpose was done, someone must have already noticed that something was wrong and reported everything hence, the quick response of the soldiers who are looking for the suspect that tried to harm the two princesses. 

Unfortunately, no one knew that everything was already taken care of and Lin Xiaofei had already gone out of the crime scene.

"Why are we going to the unmarked land?" Shen Mo asked nervously as he looked around them. He was confident that he could block any surprise attacks but that still didn't dispel the fear that he was feeling right now.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #'t-sell-me!_51314961267353666 for visiting.

This time, Lin Xiaofei stopped walking and slowly turned to look at him. 

With a smile on her face, she said, "To get some funds."

Shen Mo: "?!"

Funds? Where would she, no, anyone find funds in this desolate and eerie place? There was certainly nothing that was worth anything. No house or crops grew around this place. Don't even mention selling the land, Shen Mo was sure that no one has ever bought this land and no one would buy it either.

So where was she going to get some funds? 

Seeing the emotions passing in his eyes, Lin Xiaofei knew what he was thinking. However, she was too lazy to explain everything to him, so it was best if she showed what she meant with her words.

Honestly, Qu Xing Xu already offered to open his safe to her. She could get as much money as she wanted now. But Lin Xiaofei didn't like the idea of using Qu Xing Xu's money.

Sure, she was going to be his wife and he gave his permission to let her use it. However, she wanted to earn her own money and use it for whatever she wanted. And since she will be doing evil things now, it would be quite repulsive of her if she used his money.

But Qu Xing Xu honestly didn't care but Lin Xiaofei was too busy to realize this.

As she was thinking of this, Lin Xiaofei saw Shen Mo trembling so hard from the corner of her eyes. It seems that something was wrong with him.

"What is it?" Her soft voice sounded but the moment it landed, the guard shook more intensely than just now.

Suddenly, Shen Mo almost shouted in fear, "Young miss, please don't sell me!"

Apparently, Shen Mo had another thought about her getting some funds. It seems that he assumed that she would be selling him somewhere.
