"Don't say anymore, it's over."

Xiao Chengyi's expression sank, and suddenly grabbed Mu Qianyu's hand tightly in her palm, interrupting her words.

He knew she must have hated the experience.

So why say it again, salt her wound?

His hand was thick and sturdy, and it held tightly onto her soft little hand. Suddenly, she felt a sense of relief.

She lowered her eyes and pursed her lips without saying a word. Only her fluttering eyelashes exposed her fluctuating emotions.

"Why do you want to kill yourself? Even if you think of a way to escape, you shouldn't kill yourself so easily."

For some reason, he actually felt some lingering fear in his heart.

If not for the appearance of the Sixth Brother, would she really be unable to return?

"I don't have to kill myself. I just don't have a choice. Besides, if I pick my angle, I might not fall to my death."

Before jumping off the building, Mu Qianyu had indeed carefully observed the situation below, and did her best to choose a place to jump to if there were any obstructions.

If he was lucky, he might have been able to survive.

The crown prince had bullied her to such an extent, yet she still hadn't taken revenge. How could she be willing to die?

Wouldn't it be a good thing for those who hated her if she died?

"The Prince Qi has sent people to assassinate the crown prince. I wonder if they are doing it to distract the crown prince's attention or if they are really going to kill him."

Suddenly, he thought of Ming Mou, who was standing beside Xiao Chengjin.

Mu Qianyu originally thought that Xiao Chengjin did not plan to bother about her anymore, but with Ming Mou's sudden appearance, she felt that something was amiss.

It couldn't be all that much of a coincidence.

"He will not assassinate the crown prince. The time is not right, the crown prince's foundation is solid. If he really killed the crown prince, he would not be able to escape unscathed."

Xiao Chengyi pondered for a moment, and then he had an answer.

Assassination was actually the most foolish method of doing so. If one didn't eliminate the power behind the assassination, one would only lose himself as well.

Moreover, since Xiao Chengzhen was able to take the position of crown prince up to today, he couldn't possibly have no backup plans.

Therefore, Ming Mou had only taken a false shot. If she really took action, Ming Mou would not be able to return so easily.

"Then why did he save me? He repeatedly said that I was your friend, but I don't think that you two brothers have a good relationship with each other. It's better that you have a relationship with that idiot."

Mu Qianyu really did not understand him, but looking at how deep his heart was, and how he did not look happy, when he was young, he knew that he was not someone to be trifled with.

How could such a proud person submit to others so easily?

I'm afraid that in the future, he and Xiao Chengyi will fight with each other, or perhaps they are opposing sides to begin with.

It was only because of this that Mu Qianyu couldn't figure out the reason she had saved him.

"Sixth Brother never makes a loss. Since he helped you, he naturally has his own reasons."

Xiao Chengyi was still able to guess a few of what he was thinking.

One was curious, the other had something to do with the crown prince.

"Does he think he can take advantage of me just because he saved me?"

Hearing that, Mu Qianyu smirked, and laughed in disdain: "I reminded him just now, when Ming Mou is covered with makeup, it is very easy for people to notice, if I remind him once, it is equivalent to repaying his life saving grace, so he no longer has the qualifications to get anything from me."

Hearing this, Xiao Chengyi's tightly knitted brows instantly relaxed. The corner of his mouth pulled and revealed a happy smile, as he extended his hand to scratch her nose and said: "You're still saying that others are black-hearted foxes, you aren't bad at all."

"I'm different from him."

He's a black-hearted fox. I'm a black-hearted fox. He still needs to conceal his true appearance, so I don't need that.

These words were said with pride.

Xiao Chengyi looked at her with a funny face.

This girl, he had not even tried to conceal his dark heart, which meant that he was a naked bad guy. There was no need to hide it anymore.

"What are you laughing at? So what if I'm a bad guy?"

Mu Qianyu raised her eyebrows, showing some provocation.

"Nothing."

Xiao Chengyi smiled lightly, and held her hand even tighter: "This king is also not a good person."

Bang

An ear-piercing sound of porcelain falling to the ground suddenly rang out.

Sui Yang simply did not have the mood to look at the teacup on the ground, and only looked at his master in a daze with a stupefied expression.

Master actually said he wasn't a good person, is this what Master said?

In just a few days of hard work, Master was completely led astray by Lady Mu.

Mu Qianyu lowered her eyes and looked at the astonished Sui Yang, then asked: "Sui Yang, then what do you think should be considered to be good people?"

"Your subordinate feels that …"

Sui Yang stopped talking, he touched his head, and looked to be deep in thought.

What was a good person and what was a bad person?

He gave the beggar a meal, bought the grandma's bamboo basket, and sent the lost child away. Was this a good person?

He had killed many people, yet he was willing to do anything to survive. Was this the bad guy?

Actually, that's not necessarily the case. Even though you have done so many so-called good deeds, in the eyes of your enemies, you are still a true villain.

He had killed many people, perhaps his enemies, but no matter what methods he used, he would only be forced to do so. He wasn't just a bad person.

So no matter how he thought about it, there really wasn't an absolute distinction between good and bad people.

His master was naturally a good person in the hearts of everyone in Prince Li Palace, but to the crown prince, it was a completely different story.

After thinking for a long time, Sui Yang started to laugh dumbly. He suddenly felt that it was useless to tangle with this kind of question.

He was not entangled with this boring question, but he did not expect the Prince to say those words publicly. He was led astray by the Lady Mu, and the words of the Prince were few in the past.

"What are you laughing so foolishly for? Why aren't you cleaning up?"

Xiao Chengyi frowned and bellowed, this brat is getting more and more ignorant of the rules.

"Understood, master. This subordinate will deal with it immediately."

Sui Yang laughed, then quickly cleaned up the floor and left.

"Don't go out on your own in the future. If you want to go out, you have to bring a few people with you. Speaking of which, it's This King's fault. I should send someone to follow you."

Sighing slightly, Xiao Chengzhen knew that he was careless this time around.

Mu Qianyu suddenly became a little awkward and lowered her head: "Thank you, Your Highness. Actually, there is no need for Your Highness to be so nice to me."

Even among friends, there was no need to put so much thought into it.

"This King is willing!"

Sensing her rejection, Prince Li suddenly became angry.

Mu Qianyu raised her head, and looked at him in astonishment, and was completely speechless.

At this time, within the Lanyue House, the shop assistant was busy cleaning up the room that was just almost destroyed.

As for Xiao Chengzhen, he had long since left after the assassin ran away.

Yun Ting rubbed his waist and stood by the window. Looking at the crowd outside, he could not help but laugh: "I watched a good show today, I never thought that the girl would have such a high spirits, to actually jump off a building."

Saying this, he couldn't help but frown, "If I knew earlier, I would have dealt with her more, instead of almost killing her. This kind of interesting girl, wouldn't it be a pity to kill her?"

"Young Lord, bring me your clothes. I'll help you change."

Yue Rushuang held onto her new robe, and walked in with a smile.
