Chapter 82: Night Encounter with the Young Marquis (3)

Xie Jingxing raised his lips and smiled, then stood up and was about to leave, indicating that he had no intention of paying any attention to this group of people.

"Can you help me?" she asked.

Xie Jingxing turned around, thought for a moment, and nodded, "It's not impossible, but...if you beg me, I will take you out."

Guyu and Jingzhe's expressions changed. Xie Jingxing had a mischievous temper, and his tone was so frivolous. Facing such a handsome face, any woman would have blushed and her heart would have skipped a beat. If it weren't for their eagerness to protect their master, Jingzhe and Guyu probably wouldn't have lost their temper today.

Mo Qing frowned. Shen Miao was Shen Xin's daughter. She must have been spoiled and seemed to have a stubborn personality. If Xie Jingxing provoked her like this, Shen Miao would probably fly into a rage.

But to Mo Qing’s surprise, Shen Miao actually said quickly after hearing this: “Okay, I beg you, take us out.”

She spoke so quickly that Xie Jingxing couldn't help but choke. He carefully examined the girl before him. Although she was asking for help, her gaze was distinct and her posture was calm, without the slightest hint of humiliation. The feeling was very subtle, as if she wasn't asking for help, but rather someone high and mighty giving orders.

Without waiting for Xie Jingxing to speak, Shen Miao immediately asked, “Young Marquis, are you planning to go back on your word?”

"You are such a mean person." Xie Jingxing smiled and whispered to the person behind him, "Come out."

But in the blink of an eye, a group of men in black came from all directions. Roughly speaking, there were more than a dozen of them, which was comparable to the number brought by Prince Yu.

Jingzhe and Guyu were startled, and so was Mo Qing. He was a skilled martial artist, but he had no idea so many people were hiding here. Clearly, their skills were superior to his. The fact that the young man before him could so easily mobilize so many experts made one wonder about his identity.

Xie Jingxing said: "Be quick and decisive, don't alert the enemy."

The men in black bowed their heads and said yes, then disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye. Their movements were surprisingly consistent. It was rare to find such a temperament among the guards employed by the Mingqi family. Shen Miao was lost in thought when she heard Xie Jingxing say, "It will take some time. Let's go from the other side."

He turned around and walked in the opposite direction. He seemed to be very familiar with the layout of the temple.

“Follow him.” Shen Miao said.

I don't know how Xie Jingxing's men arranged it, but they didn't meet anyone along the way. Even when they arrived at the South Pavilion where Shen Qing and Shen Yue lived, there was no guard outside. After safely sending them there, Shen Miao said to Mo Qing, "You can go back."

The guards have their own places to live. Mo Qing sneaked out tonight. If he was discovered, something might happen.

Guyu and Jingzhe accompanied Shen Miao into the house, but Xie Jingxing did not leave. Jingzhe stepped forward and stopped Xie Jingxing from going to the inner room, looking at him warily: "Young Master, please stay."

Xie Jingxing really did stay, and just looked at Shen Miao’s back and said with a smile: “Shen Miao, you wasted this entire night of my time, and you don’t even bother to explain?”

Shen Miao paused, sighing softly inwardly. Xie Jingxing seemed to be gifted with a brilliant mind, his hearing and eyesight were enviable, and he could see many things clearly at a glance. Too lazy to hide anything from him, she glanced at Jingzhe and Guyu and said, "You two should go to the outer room and sleep first. Young Marquis, come in with me."

"Girl..." Guyu was a little flustered: "This doesn't make sense..."

Being in the same room with a strange man at night would be shocking if it got out. If she was caught, Shen Miao would be finished. After all, the incident with Fu Xiuyi could be said to be a girl's lust, after all, nothing happened. But this kind of thing could be considered self-destructive, and it would be impossible to explain it even if you jumped into the Yellow River.
