Chapter 145: Confession



As soon as she approached, Qingqing saw the relieved expression on the princess's face, and she realized that she had come at the right time. She bowed slightly to the two of them and said, "Princess, Prince, these snacks are ready. Qingqing thought that you must not have eaten yet in the middle of the day, so she took the initiative to prepare some lunch. I wonder if the prince will eat here?"

Of course, Qingqing pretended to know nothing and asked. She knew very well that although the deal between the prince and the princess was said in front of her, she still had to pretend not to know. But this question was a big deal.

Originally, he just asked out of pretense, but he never expected that Situ Xunxiao actually pondered for a moment and then nodded slightly.

At this time, Zongzheng Xiaoting's eyes widened, and his beautiful eyes were full of disbelief as he looked at Situ Xunxiao. Situ Xunxiao, who just let her look at her quietly, without even looking at her, picked up a green pastry on the table and put it into his mouth gracefully. "I will have my meal here, go and prepare it!"

Situ Xunxiao gave such instructions, and Qingqing couldn't say anything more and could only retreat.

But Qingqing retreated, but Zongzheng Xiaoting couldn't help but speak out, "Situ Xunxiao, what kind of drama do you need to put on here? Why do you have to be like this? This princess is not enjoying her meal!"

However, the person eating the cake did not react at all. There was no change on his stern face. He just raised his eyes and stared at Zongzheng Xiaoting. "Princess, have you forgotten that my first request is that I do not want you to guess my intentions casually!"

Situ Xunxiao's voice was very cold and his eyes were also cold. He looked at Zongzheng Xiaoting without any emotion.

"Don't think I'm a fool. Isn't Yunxiao Court your forbidden area? The forbidden area should be heavily guarded. How could anyone spy on anything?" Zong Zheng Xiaoting rolled his eyes suddenly, with a look of distrust on his face.

But the eyes staring at her remained fixed, unmoved. "How did the princess know that the tight security would make more people curious? How could you be sure that I would not deliberately let people in to find out what was going on? Moreover, Yunxiao Courtyard is a forbidden place for me, so why did I insist on letting the princess stay there, causing such a commotion and making a big fuss?"

Situ Xunxiao's lips curved slightly, making it impossible to detect the meaning behind it. Just as Zongzheng Xiaoting blinked her beautiful eyes, a cold voice once again escaped from her lips and teeth: "I will keep my promise, and I hope the princess will always remember it. In the next few days, I will naturally start to do everything according to the established purpose, and the princess only needs to cooperate! Of course, during this period of time, I will often accompany the princess to let her adapt as soon as possible, so as not to reveal her flaws in front of others, which would be bad."

After being told this, Zongzheng Xiaoting was speechless, his little face raised up proudly, his lips slightly pursed, and he said nothing. But in his heart, he had already secretly cursed Situ Xunxiao countless times.

Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! How come everything changed so early in the morning? Was it me who was supposed to take charge of the situation, but after a good night's sleep, this damned man took over? It seems that my first impression was right. This man is really dangerous.

Although this micro-expression can still be guessed through his sometimes unintentional movements. However, this man is indeed not easy to detect! It should be said that his emotions are concealed too well, or maybe he has always had this coffin face in recent years, and there is no way to explore it at all, which makes her feel deeply frustrated!

Just like that, the room fell silent again. The two people had their own thoughts and emotions. Situ Xunxiao was feeling smug, while Zongzheng Xiaoting pretended to be calm but was cursing in his heart.

Situ Xunxiao just maintained his usual indifference. After finishing lunch, he left the Yunxiaoyuan restaurant and went straight to the study. However, Zongzheng Xiaoting did not notice that when he left the restaurant and went towards the study, a faint happy smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

At this moment, Nangong Muchi, who was originally scheduled to arrive in two days, rushed here anxiously. He had been waiting in the study long before Situ Xunxiao finished his lunch, and was listening to the information passed on by Yeying and Qinxiao. Naturally, Nangong Muchi also knew that Situ Xunxiao had sent someone to Yunxiao Court yesterday. At this moment, he felt like an iceberg and a volcano were colliding and pulling at each other. If Xunxiao was really stuck in the mud, he would be anxious, because in this case, he would have to get rid of Zongzheng Xiaoting!

While waiting, I saw him pacing back and forth in the study room at least dozens of times.

So, when Situ Xunxiao walked into the study, he saw Nangong Muchi, who was pacing back and forth with a worried look on his face and sighing constantly. He understood in his heart, and glanced at the two people hiding at the door of the study. His face, which had softened slightly, suddenly became a little colder. Although he was unhappy, he still rationally knew that they informed Nangong Muchi out of worry, so he just snorted coldly and walked into the study.

When he appeared at the door of the study, Nangong Muxi had already noticed his arrival and saw all his actions. The cynical expression on his evil face no longer existed. Seeing Situ Xunxiao approaching, Nangong Muxi was no longer in a hurry.

He put away his original anxious look, slowly walked towards the chair beside him, and sat down steadily.

After years of knowing each other, Situ Xunxiao didn't need to ask politely why he came. He just walked to the side and sat down, shrugged and asked, "Why? Do you also think I need your advice?"

Looking at his expression and listening to the faint joy in his tone, Nangong Muxi raised his eyes and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Are you sure you are still rational and sober at this moment? Are you going to repeat to me what you said to Nighthawk?"

"For you, no need." Looking at Nangong Muchi, Situ Xunxiao shook his head, "But it is true that it was only yesterday that I finally understood what I really felt towards her. You once said that Liu Jing was just someone I mistook for love because of my momentary confusion. Now it has been proven to be true, and she is the only one who truly made me realize and understand."

Situ Xunxiao spoke frankly to Nangong Muxi, and when he met his inquiring gaze, a hint of embarrassment unconsciously flashed across his face.
