It's not that Bai Shu is overthinking it, but Xiao Moqing's appearance at this moment is really creepy.

His body was exposed, and he was pierced with thirty-nine silver needles, but he looked at her intently and smiled. Even the bottom of his eyes seemed to be filled with tiny stars.

Bai Shu then realized that those bottomless eyes could also be filled with tenderness.

Moreover, Xiao Moqing now has a kind of magic that can make people intoxicated without being noticed.

If Bai Shu still couldn't sense the signal he sent out, she was too slow.

So facing Xiao Moqing who was smiling but not saying anything, Bai Shu repeated it again,

"What are you laughing at, my Lord?"

It was time to move the needles. Bai Shu raised her hand and moved the needles one by one, her pretty face full of seriousness.

It seemed as if this could drive away the inexplicable heat and the unprecedented feeling of helplessness.

This time, the acupuncture was not as painful as before, but it was accompanied by waves of itching.

Xiao Moqing felt the numbness at the acupuncture points caused by the needle.

He could no longer suppress the urge in his heart. He didn't know whether it was right or wrong, but he still chose to face it.

"It's not expensive. This king is very cheap."

Xiao Moqing finally said the words that had been lingering in his mind for a long time. Maybe he was impulsive, but he would not regret it.

"Um?"

Bai Shu didn't expect Xiao Moqing to say such a nonsensical thing, and was stunned for a moment.

She looked at Xiao Moqing doubtfully, but was still greeted with a smile, which made her even more surprised.

“!!!”

But Bai Shu was only surprised for a moment, and she immediately reacted. What did Xiao Moqing just say?

He said, "It's not expensive. This king is very cheap."

What's the meaning?

I didn't say anything about whether it was expensive or not!

The only possibility is that she said in her heart, "I wonder if it is expensive to marry the regent of the current dynasty?"

“!!!”

After Bai Shu was stunned for a moment, she quickly picked up a thicker silver needle from her hand and quickly pressed it against the fatal point on Xiao Moqing's neck.

This series of actions happened in the blink of an eye.

But Bai Shu still felt that she was too slow. She secretly hated that she had only been in this world for a month.

He just gave up and became a nobody. I didn't expect him to react so slowly in the face of crisis!

Her current speed is much slower than when she was a female devil in her previous life!

【Tongzi! Tongzi! System!】

Bai Shu's hand holding the silver needle was very steady.

Fortunately, the poison in Xiao Moqing's body is very special, and it takes ten sets of silver needles to piece together a set that can be used.

This gave her the opportunity to use the remaining silver needles to defend herself.

She didn't dare to relax for a moment, while calling the system in her heart, she used the silver needle to press against Xiao Moqing's neck.

She knew that she in this world was far from being Xiao Moqing's opponent. As long as the other party had evil intentions, he could turn the tide of the battle in an instant.

Despite this, Bai Shu still held the silver needle with great nervousness, fearing that she would be killed if she was not careful.

"What do you mean, my lord?"

Seeing that the system disappeared again, Bai Shu had no choice but to go it alone.

She questioned Xiao Moqing softly, with a distant tone and even a hint of murderous intent in her eyes.

She didn't know what was going on. She was sure that she hadn't said anything in her heart.

The system had said in a joking manner before that someone might hear their conversation, but in the end it was proven wrong.

So in this world, when the system said it thought the Regent could hear Bai Shu's thoughts, she naturally didn't take it to heart.

But what Xiao Moqing said at this time forced Bai Shu to re-examine him, because there was really no misunderstanding or not.

The only possibility is that Xiao Moqing can hear her inner voice.

Then she had no way to make a rational judgment in a short time, so she could only use the silver needle to control the other person's life.

In case the other party is an enemy rather than a friend, after all, they have been together for a long time, and he has the ability to read minds, but she didn't even know it!

For her, who had traveled to 999 worlds and completed missions, and who cherished her life very much,

It is a very deadly thing!

“…”

It was still Xiao Moqing's smiling eyes that responded to Bai Shu. In fact, at this moment, the affection in his eyes was even stronger?

Bai Shu didn't understand, but she couldn't put down the silver needle. Even if there was a stalemate, she couldn't give up this "weapon" that was the only way to save her life.

Xiao Moqing was leisurely admiring Bai Shu's new face.

Little did he know that Bai Shu was so attractive when she became serious and bloodthirsty!

Originally he wanted to wait a little longer. He had the time and patience, and his body was still a burden.

Before he was sure that the toxins in his body were completely eliminated, and before he was sure of Bai Shu's feelings,

He wanted to continue waiting, because he had been alone for twenty-one years and felt that he had long been accustomed to loneliness.

It can hide in deserted places, waiting for the right opportunity to strike a fatal blow.

But he underestimated his desire for Bai Shu.

When he saw Bai Shu becoming more and more dazzling, he could not restrain his love.

When he heard the eldest princess talk about the criteria for choosing a son-in-law for the prime minister's mansion, he did not hesitate to start renovating the mansion next door to the Bai family.

When he heard that Jiang was going to choose a future husband for Bai Shu, he could no longer sit still.

Ultimately, it was because he was not confident in himself. He knew his reputation in the capital.

He also knew that in the eyes of the Bai family, he might be the regent who defended Dongye's sovereignty, but he was definitely not a good son-in-law because he was deep-minded and scheming.

The Prime Minister and his wife were well-known for their deep love for each other. They loved their only legitimate daughter very much.

There are also three young masters of the Bai family, each of whom holds Bai Shu in the palm of his hand.

How could he be sure that he could easily convince the Bai family?

So he decided to act on impulse and express his feelings to Bai Shu, but on the premise that he could not hide the fact that he could read minds.

Even though he is a complete blank slate in terms of emotions, he knows that the most basic things for two people to get along with each other are honesty and trust.

If these two things had happened, his mother might have had a different fate...

"Bai Shu, this prince has never had any ill will towards you."

Xiao Moqing felt that he could never get enough of Bai Shu, but he also couldn't bear to let Bai Shu worry and be in a state of tension.

He saw that Bai Shu's arm holding the silver needle was slightly sore, so he responded to her with a tone of weakness and flattery.

This is a side of him that he never shows to others. If others heard this, they would probably be shocked.

That's right, even when Xiao Moqing heard Bai Shu's inner thoughts for the first time, and the content involved the Beimo assassin, he never had the intention to kill Bai Shu. At most, he had some doubts.

"So, the prince admits it?"

This was the first time Xiao Moqing called Bai Shu's name, and coupled with his current brothel appearance,

Bai Shu was convinced for a moment, but she never gambled with her life.

Therefore, she would not let down her guard until she was sure that Xiao Moqing was not a threat to her.
