Shen Miao thought for a moment and asked Xie Jingxing, “How do you plan to deal with Princess Ming’an and Xie Changwu?”
Although she repeatedly reminded herself not to be curious about Xie Jingxing or stick her nose into his business, Shen Miao still couldn’t help but ask, “Are you planning to kill Xie Changwu?”
“What do you think? Should I wait for him to scheme against me and stab me in the back,” Xie Jingxing asked.
Shen Miao rolled her eyes. Even if Xie Changwu really wanted to scheme against Xie Jingxing, he might not have the ability to do so. Not to mention that Xie Jingxing was Prince Rui of the Daliang Dynasty now, even when he was still the young marquis of the Marquis of Lin’an, the Xie brothers did not have a good time fighting him.
“Actually, you can choose not to kill him. You could even choose not to kill Xie Changchao.” Shen Miao said, “Your father… I mean the Marquis of Lin’an. If he loses two sons in a row, he will definitely do all he can to get to the bottom of it. I know you are resourceful and have tricks up your sleeve, but it’s best to avoid unnecessary trouble.”
Xie Jingxing’s eyes turned cold. “I have the right to decide if I want to kill them or not.” Suddenly, he glanced at Shen Miao and smiled. “You seem to have realized that you are my ally now. Are you worried about me?” His tone suddenly became more frivolous. However, compared to the frivolousness of a young man two years ago, when Xie Jingxing, who had become more and more handsome, did this again, it made people unable to take their eyes off him.
Shen Miao looked away calmly and said, “I’m worried that you’ll pull me into trouble.”
Xie Jingxing sneered and smiled playfully. “Don’t worry. I have a way to protect you, and I have a way to protect myself. I won’t cause trouble for anyone.”
Xie Jingxing stood up and walked up to Shen Miao. He was extremely tall, and when he was beside Shen Miao, Shen Miao couldn’t help but feel pressured. Usually, when he spoke to Shen Miao, he was either indifferent or flirtatious, which eased the pressure. Today, for some reason, Shen Miao felt that Xie Jingxing’s gaze was much sharper than before.
“How do you want me to deal with Ming An?” He leaned closer to Shen Miao and whispered into her ear.
Shen Miao subconsciously took a step back, but her shoulder was grabbed by Xie Jingxing. He looked a little strange, as if he was enduring something. Suddenly, he let go and turned around, saying coldly, “What do you think?”
“Why are you asking me this?” Shen Miao said, “Don’t you already have an idea in mind?” Xie Jingxing had already taken Xie Changchao’s corpse away. Shen Miao thought that Xie Jingxing had already thought of what to do next. Why was he asking her now?
“That’s up to you.” Xie Jingxing did not turn around.
“How confident are you?” Shen Miao’s mind raced. “I mean, if you kill Princess Ming An, how confident are you that no one will find out?”
Xie Jingxing paused and turned around to stare at Shen Miao for a while. Suddenly, he smiled and said, “Shen girl, you really never ceased to surprise me.”
Shen Miao was slightly stunned. It had been a long time since Xie Jingxing called her “Shen girl”. Shen Miao was instantly brought back to the time when the two of them were at odds with each other, thinking that they would never have much to do with each other in this life. She did not expect that in just two years, they would be sitting together and calmly discussing the matter of killing someone.
