[I knew you were such a cunning guy.]
Xia Zhiliao smiled sweetly, "Brother, what are your conditions?"
[As long as I get the jade bracelet, what can I do with you? By then, I will definitely draw a clear line and don't want to have anything to do with you. ]
Xie Heng felt chilled after hearing this. How heartless was this girl.
“I haven’t decided yet.”
[That's great. I don't even have to deal with it. ]
Xie Heng curled his lips, "Don't think that just because you got the jade bracelet, you can draw a line between you and me. You know, if I want to take it back, it's easy."
Xia Zhiliao's mouth twitched, the plan failed.
"Brother, our whole family is honest and can't help you. Besides, my father is actually quite greedy. My uncles also have their own shortcomings. My aunt is only pretty and has a bad temper. And my brothers are always getting into trouble..."
Xie Heng understood her thoughts very well, and he nodded deliberately, "In this case, they are indeed not suitable, then I can only get it back from you in the future!"
"What are you going to do?" Xia Zhiliao took two steps back and looked at Xie Heng cautiously, as if guarding against him like a wolf.
Xie Heng frowned, "Let's talk about it later. Although I gave you this jade bracelet, you must remember that it is still mine. I can give it to you, or I can take it back."
"Brother, why are you so stingy?"
"I can be generous to others, but to you...I can only be stingy."
"Why?" Xia Zhiliao was puzzled. Hadn't he flattered enough in the past two days?
Xie Heng didn't say, "It's getting late, you don't want to sleep? No wonder you are so small."
Xia Zhiliao was angered by his disdainful look. If it wasn't for the space bracelet, would she be ridiculed here?
She pointed to the bracelet, "Give me what you said!"
"It's for you, but I didn't say now. I'll wait until you make the medicine."
"you……"
Xie Heng raised his hand and rubbed her frizzy hair, "Go to sleep, I won't go back on my word, I always keep my word."
[Damn it, I got fooled. ]
Xie Heng listened to the little girl's complaints, but felt inexplicably happy.
In order to let Xie Heng leave earlier and stay away from his family, and of course to get the bracelet back as soon as possible, Xia Zhiliao worked hard to make the antidote.
Originally, there was no need to add Coptis chinensis, but in order to take a small revenge on Xie Heng, she not only added it, but also added a lot.
That afternoon, she showed the pills to Xie Heng.
Xie Heng sniffed it and frowned slightly, "This smell is different from last time."
[You know this? Yes, I added a lot of coptis root. ]
"It's the same. Brother, you must have smelled it wrong!" Xia Zhiliao retorted.
"It smells like Coptis chinensis."
"Ahem...adding coptis root makes the medicine more effective."
[No, it's just to make it a little more bitter for you to eat. ]
Xie Heng curled his lips. The little girl never forgot to go against him. "Are you teasing me on purpose?"
"Of course not, brother, this one is definitely more useful than the last one." Xia Zhiliao said.
Xie Heng was pressed for time. If he waited for her to redo it, it would definitely delay his trip to Beijing. "Forget it, I'll trust you this time."
Xia Zhiliao stretched out his hand.
[Give me the bracelet quickly, and then you can go. You can still catch up with Lu Seyan. ]
Xie Heng was indeed leaving, but not for Lu Seyan, but he felt there was no need to explain to the little girl.
Seeing that the jade bracelet he had been longing for was about to be placed in her hands, Xia Zhiliao's heart was beating wildly.
[You have no reason not to give it to me this time, right? If you go back on your word again, you'll be too mean.]
Xie Heng handed the jade bracelet to her, but grabbed her wrist and said, "Keep it. Remember what I said yesterday."
Xia Zhiliao nodded vigorously, but the thought went in one ear and out the other.
Great, her space bracelet is finally back.
However, I didn’t look carefully last time, and there seemed to be a red dot inside, like blood. It wasn’t there before, but it doesn’t matter.
The things she hoarded inside are still there.
Looking at Xia Zhiliao who kissed the bracelet again and again, Xie Heng curled his lips and actually felt a sense of happiness.
Upon learning that Xie Heng was leaving, the Xia family felt reluctant to let him go.
"Why don't you stay for two more days? You're leaving in such a hurry, I don't have time to bring you some food for the journey." Xia Jinxiu said.
"Thank you, Aunt Jinxiu. It's not necessary." Xie Heng said.
"The weather is cold and the road is windy. What you are wearing is too thin!" said Old Mrs. Xia.
"Thank you, Master. Be careful on the road."
Xie Heng felt the enthusiasm and warmth of the Xia family, and suddenly felt reluctant to leave. "Thank you, everyone. See you later."
"Thank you, brother!" Xia He looked at him with reluctance in his eyes.
Xie Heng patted his shoulder and said, "Practice your martial arts well, my people will be here soon."
Xia He looked at him gratefully, "Thank you, brother. I... I don't know what to say."
Xie Heng smiled, but Xia Hai on the side said: "Brother Xie, you are our real brother!"
[Third brother, this guy is better at flattering than me, is this necessary? ]
Xie Heng turned around, cutting off the reluctance in his heart.
For someone like him, this warmth is destined not to belong to him.
And he needs it.
[Let's go quickly. When we get to the capital, you won't recognize us. It's best if this happens. God bless him to be forgetful.]
Xie Heng curled his lips. It turned out that they would go to the capital again.
Seeing the big villain finally leave, Xia Zhiliao breathed a sigh of relief and hoped that he would never have to see him again in this life.
But think about it, it's not very likely.
Let dad stop being an official?
I'm afraid Dad will go crazy.
"Such a young child, all alone, looks quite pitiful. How could a young master from a wealthy family raise him like this?" Old Mrs. Xia murmured.
[He is an unfavored prince. His father, the emperor, doesn't love him at all and despises him to death. His brothers are also not kind to him. So, there is nothing good about being a prince. ]
The Xia family was shocked when they heard this.
Xia Chen sighed, "It's really pitiful for a child to lose his mother."
Xia He clenched his fists. Brother Xie is such a good person, how could they do this?
Xia Zhiliao didn't care about that. She had to quickly take a look around her space bracelet.
Not long after Xie Heng left Shijing Town, he saw a carriage parked on the road in the distance.
"What's going on? I'm so unlucky." Bai Huiru complained angrily.
Lu Seyan is calmer than her mother at a young age. "Mom, it's no use for you to complain now."
"What should we do? There are people in this remote place."
Bai Huiru looked from afar at Xie Heng who was riding over on horseback and Ling He who was meeting him, and she immediately burst into smiles.
Lu Seyan also breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that someone had come to help her, but when she saw Xie Heng, her face instantly turned cold.
"Mom, we don't need their help."
"You are stupid. Without them, we can't leave here. Why are you being stupid now?" Bai Huiru glared at her daughter and stopped Xie Heng and his servant with a smile on her face.
