676 Murky Waters (3)

First, Shen Wan was sent to prison for not doing his job well. Then, Chang Zaiqing's husband and son, who were far away in Liuzhou, came and knelt at the entrance of the government office to beat the drum to petition. Now, Shen Yue was found to have become a concubine of the crown prince of the State of Qin, which led people to realize that the one who married the Wang family was actually someone else. At the same time, it made people sigh at how chaotic the Shen family actually was. It also made people wonder if the Shen family had offended someone. Why were they in trouble one after another? It was really too strange.

It was afternoon. Shen Miao pulled the curtain down and planned to take a nap. Everything that happened to the Shen family was going exactly the way she wanted. Shen Miao could also roughly guess what Emperor Wen Hui would do.

As soon as she took off her cloak, she suddenly sensed the presence of someone else. She turned around and saw that in the shadow, Xie Jingxing was standing there since God knows when. He was leaning against her bed, his hand casually rubbing something furry. It was the white tiger that Shen Miao had seen before.

The tiger had grown bigger and stronger. Even its fur was smooth and beautiful. However, Shen Miao did not care. She took a deep breath and said, Who gave you the permission to climb into my bed?

Xie Jingxing was really going overboard. Now that he was used to jumping in through the window at night, he started to visit her during the broad daylight and even climb into her bed. In no time, he'd probably swagger into the mansion from the entrance.

How audacious and bald.

Xie Jingxing said, I specially came to congratulate you. Why do you have such a reaction?

Congratulate me? Shen Miao was stunned. On what?

As you wished, the Shen family is in prison. Xie Jingxing let go of the white tiger. The white tiger let out a roar and jumped happily on Shen Miao's bed. It even used Shen Miao's top-grade silk bedding to sharpen its claws. Xie Jingxing rubbed his chin and said, Chang Zaiqing's reputation is ruined. Shen Wan regrets divorcing Chen Ruoqiu. Chen Ruoqiu is down and out and Shen Yue is also taken away and sent to prison. No matter how you look at it, it's something to be happy about. His eyes curved and he said, Aren't you happy?

The fact that her schemes were seen through by him made Shen Miao uncomfortable. She took two steps forward, grabbed Xie Jingxing's sleeve, and pulled him up from her bed as she said, Prince Rui, you don't have to come personally.

How can I show my sincerity if I don't come personally? Xie Jingxing didn't budge an inch no matter how hard Shen Miao pulled him. He glanced at Shen Miao and said with a faint smile, Besides, you even dealt a blow to Fu Xiuyi in this round. It's worth celebrating.

Shen Miao's heart skipped a beat. Xie Jingxing suddenly raised his eyebrows, grabbed Shen Miao's hand, and pulled her towards him.

Shen Miao was caught off guard and fell forward, falling on Xie Jingxing's chest.

The young man smiled, but his gaze was as sharp as a knife. His tone was as gentle as a lover's whisper, but every word he said was cold.

He said in a low voice, Even Huangfu Hao is involved. The old emperor won't let Fu Xiuyi off easily. You surely made a brilliant move, but aren't you afraid of getting burnt yourself by the fire you started?

Shen Miao looked up at Xie Jingxing.

Two years ago, the young man was rebellious and cynical. Perhaps he portrayed himself in that way on purpose. Two years later, when he showed up again, he became more unfathomable. His attitude was as frivolous as ever, as if nothing in the world could concern him. However, the ambition hidden under his casual smile was the most terrifying.
