“Get lost.”
Hearing this, the corners of Xie Jingxing’s lips curled up. He turned to look at Shen Miao with interest. “It’s been a long ti since we last t. You’re getting more and more irritable.”
Shen Miao sat down at the table and said coldly, “You still like to co uninvited.”
If anyone saw Xie Jingxing in her room, Shen Miao would never be able to explain herself. However, Xie Jingxing always liked to do this kind of thing. Shen Miao had already decided to stay away from Xie Jingxing because he had too many secrets and was unpredictable. Now that Xie Jingxing ca over himself, how could she not be angry?
“I was just passing by and thought I’d drop in on you to see how you are doing.” Xie Jingxing shrugged and changed into a more comfortable posture. He was wearing a plain dark suit with a bright white collar. It was dark, but because of his presentence, the room seed to have lit up. He stroked his chin and said, “I have sothing to ask you.”
“Speak.” Shen Miao was unwilling to waste her breath on him.
Xie Jingxing was not angry with her cold attitude. He said, “Is there anyone in the Shen mansion that Shen Yuan trusts?”
Hearing this, Shen Miao looked at Xie Jingxing in surprise. She did not expect the person Xie Jingxing wanted to ask was Shen Yuan. Although she did not know what Xie Jingxing was up to, she still said, “No, Shen Yuan has only returned to the capital for a short ti and is not close to anyone at ho. Why are you asking that?”
“I just searched his courtyard.” Xie Jingxing said lazily, “But I didn’t find what I wanted, so I ca over to ask.”
Shen Miao lowered her eyes and pondered. Could it be that Xie Jingxing wanted to find sothing from Shen Yuan but couldn’t, so he thought that Shen Yuan had handed the thing to soone he trusted and asked her about it?
“What exactly are you looking for?” Shen Miao asked, “Is it the sa as the thing in the secret room of Prince Yu’s mansion?”
As soon as she asked, the room fell silent for a mont. For a mont, Shen Miao could feel a coldness coming from Xie Jingxing. However, the dangerous atmosphere only lasted for a mont. Soon, Xie Jingxing revealed a smile. When he smiled, he was as elegant as jade, but his eyes were dangerously sharp.
Xie Jingxing did not answer Shen Miao. Instead, he asked, “You’ve been doing well these days. I heard that the second branch of the Shen family is about to lose.”
“Young Marquis, you know everything about the Shen family. Those who don’t know might think that you’re from the Shen family,” Shen Miao mocked.
Xie Jingxing shrugged. “Well, the guards of the Shen family are just decorations. They can’t do anything. Plus what has been going on in your family is quite interesting. It’s hard not to know.” He sized up Shen Miao. “I underestimated your ruthlessness.”
“Do you wanna try?”
Xie Jingxing looked at her with smiles. “I don’t have that much ti to play with you.”
“It sounds like you’re very busy.” Shen Miao stared at him. “But at the sa ti, you still have so much ti to stroll around other people’s mansions.” When she said this, she looked a little angry. If Jingzhe, Gu Yu, and the other maids saw this, they would definitely be shocked by Shen Miao’s expression at this mont, because it had been a long ti since Shen Miao revealed such a straightforward emotion. Anger or frustration were things that only the Shen Miao from her previous life would have.
Xie Jingxing said, “Little girls are always so easy to get angry.”
Shen Miao said impolitely, “Are you done asking? Why aren’t you leaving?”
Xie Jingxing stood up and patted his clothes. He opened the back window and was about to jump out when he suddenly thought of sothing. He turned around and looked at her strangely, asking, “I almost forgot to ask you. Shen Miao, do you love Pei Lang?”
Shen Miao was speechless.
Before she could speak, she saw Xie Jingxing sizing her up critically with a disdainful gaze. “I don’t think he’s into you anyway.” WIth that, his figure disappeared in an instant.
