Shen Miao was slightly startled and faced with Luo Ling's gaze that was not the same as usual, she felt slightly embarrassed.
Not to mention Luo Ling's identity or anything else, after her rebirth, Shen Miao did not have any thoughts about her marriage. If she could find a stable person to spend the rest of her life with, as long as that person respected her, so what if she loved or not? Thus Shen Miao had never thought about her husband.
But Luo Ling … Shen Miao sighed in her heart. Since she had compared Luo Ling to Wan Yu, if Luo Ling really became her husband, then in the future she would die of awkwardness. She smiled and said lightly, "Older Biao Brother is joking. Who in this family would dare to dislike you?"
But she did not answer Luo Ling's question.
The hope in Luo Ling's eyes gradually dimmed and after a moment of silence, he smiled again, "No matter what, many thanks to Younger Biao Sister for consoling."
"You are welcome." Shen Miao said, "We are all one family."
Shen Miao sat for a while before getting up to leave. After Shen Miao left, Luo Ling sat in front of the table and one did not know what he was thinking about. After being in a daze for a long time, he then gently sighed and a bitter smile appeared on his lips. His gaze landed on the plate of pastries at the corner of the table and after thinking about it, he reached out to take it.
But one did not know what happened but a gust of wind suddenly blew and just happened to hit that plate. The heavy porcelain plate actually fell to the ground with a 'bang' and the pieces flew everywhere. At the same time, the ink box on the table was also knocked over and a lot of the ink splashed onto the pastries. It was obvious that it could not be eaten.
Luo Ling was surprised for a moment and got up to take a look, but saw that the windows were tightly closed and could not help but mutter, "How can there be wind when it is closed so well?" Following that his gaze landed on the pastries that were already contaminated by the ink and said regretfully, "What a pity."
…
At the other end, Shen Miao returned to the room and lit up the oil lamp in the room. She then let Jing Zhe and Gu Yu withdraw before pressing down her nausea.
Luo Ling's matter was indeed an accident as one did not think that Princess Ming An would be so ruthless that not only did she want to deal with her, she also wanted to deal with Shen Qiu. This time if Luo Ling did not block a calamity for Shen Qiu, one did not know what kind of encounter Shen Qiu would have. Princess Ming An was even more arrogant than in the last lifetime, and because of a freak combination, she hated Shen Miao even more and did things without considering the consequences. This made one unable to feel at ease and it was better to eliminate her earlier.
Unfortunately, Xie Jing Xing interfered in this matter.
Shen Miao did not know what Xie Jing Xing wanted to do, but on that day when she was sent to the Princess residence by Xie Jing Xing, Xie Jing Xing told her not to go out these days and not to let others see any traces of her. Even though one did not know how Xie Jing Xing planned to take action, but now that Xie Chang Chao was already dead, one think that Xie Jing Xing still had to deal with Xie Chang Wu.
Originally Shen Miao had always thought that if she did not need to do it herself, it would be good to borrow a knife to kill others. But thinking that Xie Jing Xing had never been a good person who would help others for free and that cunning mind, one fear that if he helped her get rid of Ming An and Xie Chang Wu today, he would give a huge price to extort them the next day, so she felt that it was not a good idea to let Xie Jing Xing take action.
Just as he was thinking, he saw the candlelight flicker, and a silhouette suddenly appeared on the screen.
Until now, Shen Miao did not even know how to be surprised and turned her head around habitually and indeed saw Xie Jing Xing walking in from outside.
Why did this person come uninvited and act so openly, as if he was strolling in his own garden? Shen Miao was somewhat stuffy but saw Xie Jing Xing sitting down in front of the small table.
Today he did not wear the purple gold robes that he usually wore and wore a black brocade robe. If it was not for the silver lined collar, he would have blended in with the night. However the night was unable to hide his good looks. That pair of peach blossom eyes were shining brightly and today it was especially sharp.
"There is no tea and no snacks." Xie Jing Xing raised his brows, "This is how you entertain guests?"
Shen Miao said, "I did not seem to invite you."
"Not a guest is at least an ally. Not an ally." Xie Jing Xing looked at her from the side and his lips slowly hooked up, "That is also a life-saving benefactor."
Shen Miao was at a loss for words. Xie Jing Xing had already shamelessly claimed to be a life-saving benefactor, so what else could she say? Might as well not say it. Shen Miao looked at Xie Jing Xing pouring the tea and drinking it in one gulp. She did not know why but there was a somewhat unhappy look on her face.
Shen Miao thought that Xie Jing Xing did not show his emotions on his face. For example, the corners of his lips were slightly raised but it made one feel scared.
One did not know which daring person had provoked his unhappiness.
