Xie Jing Xing, "…"
He stared at Shen Miao thoughtfully and asked, "Are you pretending to be drunk?"
"The Little Marquis of the Xie family, a young talent, an eternal character, a heroic age …" The words at the back gradually became softer, as if she could not remember.
Xie Jing Xing initially had some suspicions but when he saw that Shen Miao did not seem to be pretending, he felt somewhat strange and raised his brows, "Did not think that in your heart, you are so satisfied with me." He leaned closer and teased, "Could it be that you admire me?"
Shen Miao reached out and pushed his head away.
Xie Jing Xing was somewhat speechless. If it was on normal days, it would be very interesting to tease Shen Miao. But now that Shen Miao was so drunk that even the 'eternal character' evaluation came out, it would be very boring to tease her now. He said, "Originally wanted to see you one last time. Since you are this drunk, forget it. Let us part here." He was about to leave after speaking but who knew that with a 'plop' sound, Shen Miao fell from the couch to the ground again.
Xie Jing Xing first wanted to help Shen Miao up but then stopped and crossed his arms at his chest as he stood calmly at the side. He watched Shen Miao struggling on the ground and after admiring for a while, he then said, "One should really let you see your current appearance."
Shen Miao was dizzy from drinking and her body was soft so how would she be able to stand up. She flopped on the ground for a long time but to no avail. Xie Jing Xing finally could not stand it anymore and mercifully helped her up before sitting on the couch. He then heard Shen Miao saying, "Li GongGong, BenGong want to see the fireworks."
In the quiet night, Shen Miao's words were exceptionally clear.
Li GongGong, BenGong want to see the fireworks.
The charcoal fire in the room seemed to have solidified.
Xie Jing Xing's originally curled lips slowly lowered down and his pair of peach blossom eyes were no longer filled with a romantic smile. He slightly squatted down and his line of sight was at the same level as Shen Miao who was sitting on the couch. It was a gentle action but his eyes gradually turned cold. He said, "What did you say?"
Shen Miao opened her eyes and looked at him. Under the warm light, her eyes became clearer and in those clear eyes, there was a hint of drunkenness, which made the young and inexperienced young lady suddenly have a few more womanly charm. She delicately and haughtily stretched out a hand, as if to place it on the hand of a palace servant. She ordered, "Eunuch Li, I want to see the fireworks. Go and call the Crown Prince and Princess over."
Crown Prince? Princess?
Xie Jing Xing stared at Shen Miao in front of him. When he smiled, he was as moving as the spring flowers and autumn moon. When he didn't smile, he was as dangerous as a silent abyss. Anyone who looked at him would feel like they were being mocked. He looked at Shen Miao and as he looked, he suddenly chuckled.
Even though there was a smile on his face, there was no trace of a smile in his eyes. He gently hooked up Shen Miao's chin and when he did such a lecherous action, it was graceful and natural, so gentle that it made one drown in his dark eyes.
He asked, "Shen Miao, do you want to be the Empress?"
Shen Miao blinked at him and said, "That was originally mine."
"Yours?"
"Bengong's."
Xie Jing Xing slowly tightened his fingers and Shen Miao frowned in dissatisfaction as she felt pain on her chin.
"Little girl, you already have the ambition to be the Empress at such a young age." His tone was unclear but his eyes were dangerous, "A woman with ambition is the most beautiful. But … You are still not a woman."
Shen Miao also looked at him. Under the bright moonlight, the snowy shadows, the swaying plum blossoms, the two people facing each other. It should have been a romantic scene with beautiful flowers and full moon, but the atmosphere of danger and ambiguity was overwhelming, mixed with probing and danger.
She was like a young lady who was raised pampered. If it was an ordinary female, when she grew older, she would only worry about marrying a good husband. But she had been patiently planning step by step, scheming against the world behind her back. Even though one had guessed that she had ambition, but when one really heard it, one could not help but be surprised.
