844 Injured (3)
She subconsciously got up. Seeing that the room was empty and Xie Jingxing was nowhere to be seen, she was stunned for a moment before hearing a smiling voice from behind. “Are you looking for me?”
Xie Jingxing walked over in a loose robe. Shen Miao did not know where he found the robe. She looked at him in surprise. Xie Jingxing was injured and was unconscious yesterday, but now, he looked refreshed. How could he possibly recover so fast?
She asked, “Are you feeling better?”
Xie Jingxing smiled. “Of course.”
Shen Miao nodded. “As expected, the pill is effective. Cousin Tan is not lying to me.”
“Pill?” Xie Jingxing frowned. “What pill?”
“It’s for women to feel better during their periods,” Shen Miao said without changing her expression, “When women are on their periods, take one pill and they won’t feel so weak. Last night, I saw that you were bleeding profusely, so I gave you three pills.” She smiled at Xie Jingxing and said, “It seems like it’s all thanks to the pill that you recovered so quickly.”
Xie Jingxing’s smile froze.
Seeing him speechless, Shen Miao couldn’t help but laugh in her heart. The next moment, she couldn’t laugh anymore. Xie Jingxing said leisurely, “Oh, in that case, as a return, I won’t pursue the matter of you touching the last time.”
Shen Miao was stunned. Xie Jingxing smiled ambiguously. “Last night, someone touched something…”
Shen Miao’s face turned pale and then red. She said angrily, “You were awake?”
“I couldn’t speak, but my mind was awake.” Xie Jingxing walked to the table and sat down. After washing up, he looked even more energized. He heated another pot of tea and poured himself a cup. He smiled at Shen Miao.
Shen Miao stood rooted to the ground and asked, “What’s wrong with your injuries? What happened yesterday?”
“I was doing what you asked me to do,” Xie Jingxing said casually. “I won’t go to a place like Prince Ding’s mansion next time.” He stretched. “Fu Xiuyi really has a lot of tricks up his sleeve. I’m not confident I can come out alive every time.”
“You went to Prince Ding’s mansion?” Shen Miao widened her eyes. “You went to the dungeon?”
Xie Jingxing’s eyes flashed. “You know a lot about Prince Ding’s mansion and even know there is a dungeon.” He said, “That’s right. I went and saved ‘your’ Mr. Pei.”
Shen Miao looked at him blankly.
She did not expect Xie Jingxing to go and save Pei Lang personally. Xie Jingxing’s identity was sensitive, and Fu Xiuyi was definitely not someone to be underestimated. Once Fu Xiuyi caught him, Xie Jingxing would inevitably be in a lot of trouble. Shen Miao asked Xie Jingxing for help because she knew that he had many capable people by his side. She did not expect him to take the risk.
Shen Miao had an indescribable feeling in her heart. However, Xie Jingxing went to Prince Ding’s mansion, then it was not surprising that he was wounded.
Fu Xiuyi was a very cautious and paranoid person. Because he had made countless enemies, Prince Ding’s mansion was like an impregnable castle. As for the dungeon, the prisoners locked inside were mostly spies sent by the enemy. It could even be said that Fu Xiuyi spent much more effort to strengthen the security of the dungeon than the entire Prince Ding’s mansion.
Under such conditions, it was already not easy for Xie Jingxing to come out alive, let alone save someone.
Seeing that Shen Miao was in a daze, Xie Jingxing tilted his head and looked at her suspiciously, asking, “Why don’t you ask if your Mr. Pei is dead or alive?”
