"For His Highness Prince Rui to come, one do not know for what matter?" Princess Ming An finally woke up from the shock of the other party killing Xie Chang Chao, and seemed to be aware of the danger shrouded in the night. She opened her mouth to probe but her heart started to beat violently.
That person's voice was as gentle as the wind, but also like the ice and snow falling from the Wan Li Lake. It looked beautiful but made one feel cold. He said, "With such a beautiful scenery, is it not good to be a place to bury one's bones?"
Xie Chang Wu said, "Why do you want to do this? I have no enmity with you, so you cannot let us go? " He clearly knew that the other party had the intention to kill, but he had no way out. Xie Chang Wu finally could not suppress the fear in his heart and cried out loudly.
"No enmity?" The other party seemed to have heard a joke, "You are too forgetful."
"Xie Chang Wu, after so many years, you and your stupid Younger Brother do not know how to make progress." He said.
Xie Chang Wu felt that these words were somewhat familiar, and following that, he saw that black clad person slowly pulling off the mask covering his face.
Even if it was an extremely weak light, it was unable to cover up this person's brilliance. Long eyebrows extended to the temples, a nose that was like a hanging gall, and thin lips that had a ridiculing smile as usual. That pair of peach blossom eyes seemed to look over after a long period of time. It was clearly a very gentle smile, but there was a touch of contempt.
That was the nightmare of Xie Chang Wu's entire life.
"Xie Jing Xing!"
Princess Ming An was indulging in this man's captivating looks, thinking that the face under Prince Rui's mask was really as shocking as the rumours said, but was interrupted by Xie Chang Chao's voice.
Xie Jing Xing? Was that not the residence of the Marquis of Lin An, the Di son of the Xie family who died in the battlefield two years ago, the one that made one sigh with regret?
"It is hard for you to still remember me." Xie Jing Xing smiled gently, but that originally handsome smile was exceptionally scary in Xie Chang Chao's eyes. He turned around and wanted to escape. That was an instinct that came from his bones, like the subconscious reaction of a prey encountering danger, and his brain would not think if it was possible.
His body was held down by someone, and his mouth was gagged, making his entire body unable to move. Princess Ming An had the same experience as him.
The pleasure boat was in the middle of the Wan Li Lake. It was midnight and there was not a single person on the streets. Even the restaurants that were lit up in the distance were drowned out by singing and dancing. This subtle movement was like throwing a stone into a pool of water. It did not even cause a splash before it slowly sank.
Xie Chang Chao and Princess Ming An were held down by the black clad people, and could only watch as the leader turned and walked out of the pleasure boat.
Even on the icy surface, he walked gracefully. His voice was separated by the snow that covered the sky above the Wan Li Lake. It was like the winter's ice that chilled one's heart.
"The game is over."
…
Shen Miao woke up from her dream.
For some unknown reason, his sleep tonight was a little restless. At this moment, he decided to wake up. There was not the slightest movement outside. It was probably the middle of a good night's sleep.
She rubbed her forehead and felt that her head was a little painful, but no matter what, she could not sleep anymore. The fire in the room was burning brightly, but she felt that there was some stuffiness in her chest. After thinking about it, she simply took an outer garment from the side and casually put it on. She walked to the window and opened it, wanting to release the stuffiness in her heart.
When the window was opened, the shadows of the big tree in front of the window swayed. It was still snowing outside, and large sheets of snowflakes fell down. Some were blown into the room. Shen Miao stretched out a hand and watched the snowflakes gradually melt in her palm.
For some unknown reason, she felt a little lonely.
In such a night, there was no mood to sleep, and to wear clothes and look at the snow alone, it was indeed somewhat artificial. But her mind could not help but think of some things from her past life, such as Wan Yu and Fu Ming. She felt that the old scars that were deliberately covered up in her heart started to ache.
A small flower fell from the sky and just happened to land in Shen Miao's open palm. Shen Miao was surprised for a moment, and with the help of the lantern hanging on the tree, she could see clearly that it was not a snowflake, but a bright red Begonia.
In this season, how would there be a Begonia? This tree also did not grow Begonia?
Shen Miao subconsciously looked up and saw that in the shadow of the tree, there was a person lying down. Both hands were placed behind his head, as comfortable as a young man. When he saw her looking over, he lowered his head slightly and looked down at Shen Miao from top to bottom. His brows were handsome and his smile was frivolous as he raised his eyebrows, "Why are you in a daze?"
Shen Miao said, "What are you doing here?"
Xie Jing Xing had nothing to do and ran to other people's courtyard to sleep on a tree. This hobby of Prince Rui of the Great Liang was too amazing.
"Cannot sleep." That person sighed and suddenly jumped down from the tree and landed in front of Shen Miao. Separated by the window, one person was outside the window and the other was inside the window. He nudged his lips towards Shen Miao's palm, "Broke a flower and came over to gift it to you. But feared that you would fall asleep, so I waited for you to wake up on the tree."
Nonsense. Shen Miao rolled her eyes at him, but saw that even though this person was smiling, he did not look as energetic as he was in the past.
Her heart moved, and without knowing why, Shen Miao blurted out, "Come in. There are leftover snacks in the room."
