Shen Miao frowned, "What are you here for?"
Xie Jing Xing however smiled and did not bother with her. He seemed to be searching for something in the room and in less than the time it took for an incense stick to burn, he had finished searching. But the result was obviously not satisfactory as he did not find anything.
Shen Miao stared at his every move and suspicion grew in her heart. Xie Jing Xing's appearance was like he came to the Shen residence to look for something. But what was the thing in the General residence that was worth him to be a gentleman on the beam and take such a big risk to personally search for it? Was there anything else that she did not know?
"What are you looking for? Say it and I can help you find it." Shen Miao opened her mouth.
Xie Jing's actions paused for a moment and turned his head to look at her inquisitively before speaking with interest, "Shen family's girl, I know that in the Shen family, you are the smartest but it is better not to have any ideas on me."
"Then you came to my house to steal things in broad daylight. Is it considered as having ideas on the Shen family?" Shen Miao was unmoved. But her heart was somewhat annoyed with Xie Jing Xing's watertight defense. She gave in because she wanted to know what it was. In the end this person was so vigilant and did not give her any chance.
"Steal?" Xie Jing Xing seemed to have heard something funny and his beautiful peach blossom eyes revealed a dangerous glint, "That is originally this Marquis's thing and can only be considered as taking."
Shen Miao's heart moved and seemed to have caught something but that thought disappeared too quickly that she was unable to capture it.
"But." Xie Jing Xing glanced at the ancestral hall, "There are so many people guarding here and I thought that it was to protect something. So it is to watch over you." He looked at Shen Miao and crossed his arms, "What mistake did you commit that there are so many people locking you up? The ancestral hall is not a place where a Eldest Young Lady should stay."
"What does it have to do with you?" Shen Miao looked at the hourglass and the last bit of sand had flowed from the top to the bottom. The time was almost up. But Xie Jing Xing had not left. Her patience had run out and she said, "Since Little Marquis did not find 'your thing', then please leave. The ancestors of the Shen family are not willing to see a gentleman on the beam."
The sarcasm in her words was that no one dared to speak to Xie Jing Xing like that ever since he was born, moreover it was a little girl. But he didn't get angry and only ridiculed, "Indeed, the Chen family's ancestor isn't willing to see this Marquis, but is willing to see his descendant being forced into marriage. It can be considered lively."
"You are not willing to marry Wei Qian?" he asked.
"What do you want? So what if I am not willing? "Shen Miao retorted.
"Wei Qian can be a good man, but you aren't a good wife. You picked him up. This is the first time I've seen someone who doesn't know what's good for them." He narrowed his eyes and the devilish smile on his lips was so handsome that it was dazzling. He said frivolously, "Could it be that you admire this Marquis so you are unwilling to marry Wei Qian?"
Shen Miao was so angry that she almost laughed. She turned her head and stared at Xie Jing Xing, "If you think like this, there is nothing wrong with me. I only advise Little Marquis to not get involved in some matters, otherwise when you regret it, it would be too late."
Her complexion was somewhat pale, probably because she had not been eating and sleeping well in the ancestral hall these days. She had become thinner, but it made the outline of the young girl even more distinct. Her chin had become pointy, and her eyes were incomparably clear. But Xie Jing Xing could see a fire burning in them.
"Young Lady!" Jing Zhe ran in and jumped in shock when she saw Xie Jing Xing. She suddenly protected Shen Miao behind her and pointed at Xie Jing Xing, "You. You. How did you come in?"
Xie Jing Xing shrugged his shoulders and did not answer.
"Just treat it as if he is not here." Shen Miao was too lazy to care about him and asked Jing Zhe, "How is your arrangement?"
