Gao Yang held his forehead and heard Ji Yushu ask again, “Third Brother, do you know who this bold lecher is?”
Naturally, no one answered him. Nan Qi and Tie Yi were extremely nervous. Fifth Miss Shen was someone their master liked. Who had the guts to touch Fifth Miss Shen’s hand?
Ji Yushu said with a sigh, “It’s Su Mingfeng! It’s Third Brother’s sworn brother, Su Mingfeng! You are so close, but he actually took advantage of the woman Third Brother likes. How shameless!”
Nan Qi and Tie Yi were stunned. Xie Jingxing’s gaze was cold, and Gao Yang simply covered his face with a fan.
…
The light was dim, and Shen Miao was reading under the light in boredom. From time to time, she would look up at the window. The window was wide open on a cold day. Shen Miao guessed that Xie Jingxing had probably planted people in her house, but she didn’t mind. Shen Xin and Luo Xueyan usually didn’t work in the mansion, let alone Shen Qiu. There were no secrets in the Shen family, so it didn’t matter if Xie Jingxing’s people were around. She would just treat them as free guards.
Since Xie Jingxing’s people were paying attention to her every movement, when they saw the open window, they would most likely report to their master that she was waiting for him.
Shen Miao thought about it and felt that it was really not a good thing to meet Su Mingfeng on the street today. Su Mingfeng and Xie Jingxing were very close. In her previous life, when Su Mingfeng died, only Xie Jingxing went to collect his corpse, not afraid of angering the Ming Qi royal family, so she knew that the two of them were indeed good friends. Since they were good friends, they definitely knew each other well. Today, Su Mingfeng noticed her bracelet and said something about the tiger head bracelet. It was definitely not a casual remark. It must have something to do with Xie Jingxing.
Shen Miao did not know how many people in Ming Qi knew Xie Jingxing’s real identity. However, judging from what Su Mingfeng said today, it was obvious that he did not know. If Su Mingfeng found out that Xie Jingxing was not dead… Shen Miao did not know if Xie Jingxing would be in trouble.
As she was thinking, she heard a sound from the window. She looked up and saw that the purple-robed young man had already entered with ease. He even closed the window to prevent the wind from blowing in.
Xie Jingxing strode closer and sat down at the table. The tea on the table was still warm. Xie Jingxing poured himself a cup of tea. He was so at ease that those who didn’t know might think he was at home. Shen Miao took a sip of tea and said, “I called you here today for something.”
“What is it?” Xie Jingxing asked with a smile.
After a moment of hesitation, Shen Miao said, “Su Mingfeng might have figured out that you’re still alive.”
Xie Jingxing fell silent.
Shen Miao stretched out her wrist. The jade bracelet on her wrist was sparkling and translucent, making her wrist look even more slender and fair. She said, “Su Mingfeng saw this bracelet on the street today and said something about the tiger head bracelet. He asked me if I’ve seen you. I think there must be a connection.”
Xie Jingxing frowned slightly. When he was silent, he gave people chills.
Shen Miao thought to herself that the reason Xie Jingxing wore a mask was because he didn’t want people to find out his true identity. Unexpectedly, her negligence today might cause Xie Jingxing to be noticed by Su Mingfeng. Even if Su Mingfeng was Xie Jingxing’s good friend, Xie Jingxing would inevitably be put at a disadvantage. If she caused trouble for Xie Jingxing… Xie Jingxing had helped her so much, but not only did she not help him but even caused him trouble. Shen Miao felt a little guilty.
She thought for a moment and said, “Why don’t… we think of a way to make up for it?”
