Chapter 196 It’s Better to Kill Him
Jiang Linyuan looked at the stream, his expression revealing whether he believed it or not.
Wei Ciying had no intention of making him believe her words right away, but as long as she planted the seeds of doubt, they would surely take root and sprout in the future.
"Real tea." Jiang Fei exclaimed.
"Tea?" Pei Jing asked, "What kind of tea is she?"
Jiang Fei nodded, "Aged green tea."
Pei Jing nodded thoughtfully, "Then I won't drink green tea anymore."
After that, his face turned cold again, "This woman is too noisy, it's better to just kill her!"
"That won't do." Jiang Fei said quickly: "I was counting on her to let me become the first red line. Don't worry, in terms of burying suspicions, I buried them earlier than her."
The two of them were very close, Jiang Fei was almost half leaning in Pei Jing's arms. Her attention was previously on Jiang Linyuan and Wei Ciying, so she didn't notice anything.
When my mind relaxed at this moment, I realized that the two people's actions were so ambiguous.
Pei Jing's eyelashes drooped slightly, and as he looked at her delicate profile, he couldn't help but feel distracted again.
Last night he looked through the 108 moves again, one of which was called "Soft Jade Throwing into the Arms". Isn't this a good time to use this move?
The so-called "soft jade falling into the arms" means that one suddenly slips and falls into the other person's arms. After standing firmly, one raises his eyes timidly, apologizes softly, and expresses gratitude.
Although this trick is a bit shameful to use, the author wrote in the book that it is very effective and worth a try.
Thinking of this, Pei Jing made up his mind and pretended to stand up, but Jiang Fei quickly grabbed him and asked, "Where are you going?"
"My legs are numb," Pei Jing said, "Get up and move around."
In this way, there is a reasonable explanation for falling into her arms.
Pei Jing pretended to stand up, estimated the distance and posture between the two, then his feet suddenly slipped and he fell towards Jiang Fei.
Jiang Fei was caught off guard and reached out to help him, but she underestimated Pei Jing's weight and overestimated herself, and was directly pounced on by Pei Jing and pressed tightly into the grass.
"Ugh——" Jiang Fei tried hard to hold back from shouting out instinctively.
Pei Jing subconsciously protected the back of her head with his hands and hurriedly stood up, only to see that Jiang Fei's hair was disheveled, with a few strands of black hair sticking to her cheeks, and her almond-shaped eyes were wide open.
The arm that was originally about to prop himself up suddenly went limp, and instead he leaned over a little closer to her.
Jiang Fei was about to complain, but suddenly fell silent when she saw Pei Jing's face clearly.
The burning heat in those eyes made her heart tremble. Pei Jing's tall nose bridge almost touched hers. Their warm breaths intertwined with each other, and she couldn't tell whose heartbeat was deafening.
Pei Jing's Adam's apple rolled, and his eyes fell on her slightly open lips. The bright red seemed to have a magical power, which made him move closer involuntarily.
As soon as this man raised his tail, Jiang Fei knew what he wanted to do. He couldn't hide his thoughts in his eyes at all, but he was still hesitating.
"I..." Pei Jing's Adam's apple rolled.
Before he could finish his words, Jiang Fei couldn't bear it anymore and grabbed his collar, and their lips touched firmly together.
A trace of surprise flashed across Pei Jing's eyes, and then his eyes suddenly darkened. He held her and turned over, lying down himself.
The grass rustled as it was pressed, startling a few birds in the woods.
Wei Ciying looked in the direction of the noise and frowned slightly.
"What are you looking at?" Jiang Linyuan asked.
Even though Wei Ciying suspected that Jiang Linyuan had ambushed people around, she couldn't expose him directly. She just said, "Maybe it's a wild rabbit in the mountains."
Pei Jing and Jiang Fei kissed each other deeply before he slowly let her go.
He was finding it increasingly difficult to resist her, and sometimes just a glance from her could easily make him have wild thoughts.
Pei Jing's gaze fell on Jiang Fei's blushing cheeks, and his Adam's apple rolled unconsciously again.
He just raised his chin again when her hand covered his lips.
"Wait." Jiang Fei pricked up her ears. "There's no sound. They seem to have left."
Pei Jing listened for a moment, then stood up reluctantly.
The two men parted the grass and looked inside, and sure enough, the hut was empty.
…
On the way back, Wei Ciying sat in the car, and her previously anxious heart finally settled down.
Zi Fu took out the water bag and said, "Miss, you talked with Jiang Linyuan for so long, you must be thirsty."
Wei Ciying took it and took a sip, "Fortunately, this trip wasn't in vain."
Zi Fu was puzzled. "But why didn't Miss just kill Jiang Linyuan? What if he remembers it someday?"
"Do you think I don't want to kill him directly?" Wei Ciying placed the water bag heavily on the table and took out a dagger from his sleeve. When the dagger was unsheathed, it had a strange blue light and was obviously poisoned.
She closed the dagger and threw it on the table. "Do you think Jiang Linyuan would come to the appointment without any preparation? There might be an ambush in the forest. If I take action, even if I succeed by chance, I'm afraid I won't be able to escape."
"Now that I've shifted the blame to someone else, and he hasn't recovered his memory, it's hard for him to tell the truth from the lies we're telling him. No one knows Jiang Linyuan better than me. Even if he's lost his memory, his inherent suspicion can't be changed. If I can convince him that Jiang Rufei is the one who harmed him, maybe he can become a great help in getting rid of Jiang Rufei."
Wei Ciying leaned against the car wall in a relaxed manner. "If we meet a few more times, as long as I don't take action, I can dispel his doubts and deepen his trust in me. Then, even if I can't get him to get rid of Jiang Rufei as I wish, it will be easier for me to take action against him."
"Miss, this move is truly brilliant," Zi Fu praised. "It can be used for both attacking and defending."
…
"I don't understand why Wei Ciying didn't take action when there was such a good opportunity."
Pei Jing sat in the car and glanced at Duan Jiu, who was riding along on horseback. "If she had taken action, what do you think would have been the outcome today?"
Duan Jiu said: "The evidence of natural murder is conclusive and has fallen into our hands."
He reacted immediately after he finished speaking, "We still don't have any evidence that she poisoned Jiang Linyuan. If she acts rashly, she will be throwing the handle to us."
Pei Jing nodded and looked at Jiang Fei beside him, "She wants to frame you, what do you think?"
"That's right." Duan Jiu said, "What if Wei Ciying said those words to Jiang Linyuan today and Jiang Linyuan turns around and suspects Miss?"
"Have you all forgotten something?" Jiang Fei smiled. "If Jiang Linyuan wasn't stupid, he would know that he lives in the palace now. It would be easy for me to harm him. Why would I go through so much trouble?"
When the group returned to the palace, Jiang Fei's servants had already prepared the meal. Jiang Fei wolfed down the food, while Pei Jing chewed slowly and hadn't even touched his chopsticks.
Jiang Fei put down her chopsticks and was about to stand up when Pei Jing grabbed her and said, "What are you in such a hurry for? Have some soup."
The maid served the soup and Jiang Fei drank it in a few mouthfuls. "I have to pee urgently."
Looking at her back as she ran away, Pei Jing shook his head helplessly.
Jiang Fei turned right after going out the door, walked to the corner of the corridor, and beckoned to Duan Jiu.
Duan Jiu pointed at himself, and seeing Jiang Fei nodding repeatedly, he looked around to make sure no one was paying attention, then he quickly walked to Jiang Fei.
"What are your wishes, young lady?"
Jiang Fei asked in a low voice: "Has your prince been taking medicine recently?"
