751 Exposed (6)
Princess Rong Xin pointed at him shakily and asked, “What did you call me?”
The purple-clothed young man in the room was tall and slender. He slowly reached out to touch his mask.
He took off the mask, allowing people to see his outstanding facial features clearly.
He was peerlessly handsome.
There was still a faint trace of arrogance on him from when he was young. However, now, that arrogance was slowly suppressed, and it was replaced by a dangerous and terrifying aura.
He put on the mask again and said casually, “Long time no see, Auntie Rong.”
Princess Rong Xin was stunned for a long time before she could recover from the shock.
She looked at Xie Jingxing and sized him up with an unfamiliar gaze. She said in an unclear tone, “Should I call you Prince Rui or… Xie Jingxing?”
The alienation and vigilance in her tone shocked Shen Miao.
She had also thought about what would happen if Xie Jingxing and Princess Rong Xin really bumped into each other, but she did not expect it to be like this. In just a moment, Princess Rong Xin displayed hostility towards an enemy.
Xie Jingxing said, “Princess, do as you please.”
“Did you send the herb?” Princess Rong Xin asked.
Xie Jingxing smiled but did not say anything.
Princess Rong Xin also smiled. “Prince Rui, I won’t take your things for free. I think these herbs are not cheap. I’ll get someone to send the money to your mention later. Thank you, Prince Rui.”
“No need,” Xie Jingxing said.
“Prince Rui, you’re here to…” Princess Rong Xin’s voice was polite and vigilant, completely different when she was talking about Xie Jingxing just a while ago.
“She doesn’t know anything.” Xie Jingxing nodded at Shen Miao and said, “Princess, if you have any questions, you can ask me directly. There’s no need to make things difficult for her.”
“How would I dare to make things difficult for her?” Princess Rong Xin sneered, but her tone was a little complicated.
“That’s good.” Xie Jing walked over and put his arm around Shen Miao’s shoulder. Without caring about Shen Miao’s expression, he said, “Princess, I will find a time to come personally to explain things to you. If you have any grudges against me, you can find me at Prince Rui’s mansion at all times.”
With that, he took a few steps forward with Shen Miao and jumped out of the window without paying attention to Princess Rong Xin’s reaction.
Shen Miao was shocked by Xie Jingxing’s actions today. She did not expect Xie Jingxing to dare to appear in the princess mansion so openly. Although Xie Jingxing and Princess Rong Xin were like mother and son, that was in the past.
Shen Miao thought that Princess Rong Xin would go hysterical and ask angrily or cry in pain upon seeing Xie Jingxing. However, the first thing Princess Rong Xin showed was vigilance.
She mocked, tested, and was overly polite. In front of Xie Jingxing, who had come back from the dead, Princess Rong Xin was more suspicious than happy.
Princess Rong Xin’s words sounded in Shen Miao’s ears again.
“When he was young, he seemed to know very well what he wanted and didn’t want. For things he didn’t want, he wouldn’t even take a look at it. He always liked to smile and was popular among girls, but he didn’t show interest in these girls.”
Did Xie Jingxing know that this day would come since he was young, so he voluntarily abandoned kinship? It was not that he did not want it, but he could not afford to have it. Because even if he did, he would lose it one day and become enemies with his family. In that case, he might as well be indifferent to his family from the beginning. When there was expectation, there was no disappointment.
Shen Miao suddenly felt a little bad for him.
