Chapter 391
…
Then came the clattering sound of leather boots on the ground, which was getting closer and closer. Mu Jiao subconsciously retreated in the opposite direction of the sound.
Xikai E Peizhen looked at the tied girl with complicated eyes, then walked to Mu Jiao, bent down, picked her up and put her on the ground on the other side of the room.
"Woo woo..." Mu Jiao wanted to speak, but with a seal on her mouth, she could only make a weak sound.
Xikai.E Peizhen took a look and removed the seal on Mu Jiao's mouth.
"Who are you? Why did you kidnap me?" Mu Jiao immediately asked the question in her mind after realizing her mouth had been unsealed. This person could have kidnapped her from the tightly guarded prince's residence, so he must be no ordinary person.
Xikai E Peizhen did not answer Mu Jiao's doubts, but looked at her coldly and said:
"Don't waste your energy. You can't escape from here."
This voice... the more Mu Jiao listened, the more familiar it seemed. Where had she heard it before?
"Xi Kai E Peizhen? It's you, right?!" Mu Jiao suddenly thought of someone. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that he looked like her. The doubts in her heart immediately came out.
"Don't worry, I won't kill you. I just want you to never appear next to His Highness again from now on." Xikai E Peizhen still didn't answer the question, but this voice also made Mu Jiao certain that he was Xikai E Peizhen.
"You are betraying Brother Qi by doing this. Why?" Before dating Huo Qi, Mu Jiao had once misunderstood the relationship between the two. It was not until Huo Qi explained it clearly that she realized that the friendship between them was pure. And from Huo Qi's description, Mu Jiao could easily hear that he really trusted Xikai Epei.
But now Brother Qi's best friend had actually kidnapped her? Mu Jiao couldn't believe it.
"I don't want to either! But what can I do? If Amu knew that you and His Highness were together, she wouldn't be able to bear it." Xikai E Peizhen murmured to herself, her eyes becoming firm again after a struggle.
Ah Mu? Who was that? Mu Jiao was completely bewildered. She wanted to ask Xi Kai E Pei Zhen, but before she could even open her mouth, her mouth was taped shut again. Furthermore, her hands were tied and fixed to an unknown location. Previously, she had been able to move them, but now they were frozen in place.
“Woo…”
Mu Jiao protested, but Xikai E Peizhen had already stood up and looked at Mu Jiao coldly and said:
"I won't kill you. I'll just take you to a place where His Highness can't find you. Be quiet and stop struggling fearlessly. The ropes that bind you can't be cut by a mere shard of glass."
After saying that, Xikai Epeizhen turned and left. Mu Jiao only heard the footsteps getting farther and farther away, and finally the sound of the door closing. The world became silent again.
After Xikai E Peizhen left, Mu Jiao's thoughts raced. For example, Xikai E Peizhen said he wouldn't kill her, so where would she be taken? How could she save herself? And... Brother Qi must have known she was missing, but he probably wouldn't suspect Xikai E Peizhen... And who was this A-Mu Xikai E Peizhen was talking about? Why couldn't she know she was dating Brother Qi?
Mu Jiao was puzzled and finally thought of the last one. She had heard this name occasionally a long time ago, Amu, Ximu, Ximu. E Peizhen, Xikai. E Peizhen's sister.
The woman who had proposed to marry Brother Qi when he first fell ill was rejected by Brother Qi and the matter ended in nothing.
This incident caused a sensation in the Mingao Empire at the time, but was never mentioned again. Mu Jiao thought about it and seemed to have overheard it from the group of veterans with genetic collapse syndrome during their casual chat.
However, the veterans seemed to be very unhappy when they mentioned her. They were even more disdainful and resistant to Ximu E Peizhen's proposal to the Second Prince.
