Chapter 408 Are you trying to play dumb? Believe me or not, I'll beat you up.
As Jin Lei finished speaking, his breathing became even more rapid.
His hands, hanging at his sides, clenched into fists.
Anger surged.
Those memories flashed through his mind, and he truly could no longer suppress his anger.
Xiao Tang blinked at him, then smiled: "Oh, so you used mystical arts to survive, but didn't revive your wife and children?"
She shook her head. "What kind of responsible man are you? Shouldn't you be saving your wife and children first?"
Jin Lei, whose anger was soaring, suddenly seemed to have been extinguished by water.
He glared angrily at Xiao Tang: "Don't talk nonsense. You don't know anything, so what right do you have to accuse me?"
"You don't understand. This mystical art can only be used on oneself. If it could be used on one's wife and children, would I not use it?"
Yo yo yo.
They get angry and embarrassed after just a few words.
Xiao Tang shook his head, "But as far as I know, such a mysterious technique does exist in the Ten Thousand Demon Cave. As long as you are willing to sacrifice your own heart, you can successfully allow the dead souls of your wife and children to possess your body."
This is a secret technique of hers.
Just something I said offhand.
Unexpectedly, Jin Lei's expression was extremely unpleasant.
"You, you..."
"Look, it's your own fault for not wanting to sacrifice yourself, so why are you cursing and swearing?"
Moreover, she didn't believe that his wife and children really died because of the regent, since there was no evidence or conclusion to support that.
On the contrary, Jin Lei's expression became even more unpleasant.
He never expected that Xiao Tang would see through his thoughts.
This is incredibly embarrassing.
...
Xiao Tang returned to the Prince's Mansion and told Ruyi, "Have Yan Shi keep a close eye on that little guy recently."
Ruyi asked in surprise, "Ah, why is it this servant who has to go and say it?"
She was puzzled.
Xiao Tang exclaimed, "But just now in the dark dungeon, I saw you and him interacting quite a lot."
Ruyi blushed. "Your Highness, please don't talk nonsense. This servant... this servant already has someone in her heart."
I never expected that.
This girl already has her own girlish thoughts.
Xiao Tang leaned closer to her and asked, "Why do you say that? Who is it?"
"Your Highness!" The little maid was extremely shy, covering her blushing face and playfully scolding, "Since Your Highness has already figured it out, please don't ask me anymore."
She covered her face and ran away.
Xiao Tang was surprised.
Goodness.
So it really was Yan Jiu.
But……
She had such a short time with Yan Jiu, but she probably had a longer time with Yan Shi, right?
The idea that feelings can develop over time doesn't work for Ruyi...
Xiao Tang waited until night fell before Di Jingling returned.
The man, accompanied by the cool breeze from outside, entered the house and frowned when he saw that she was still awake. "Why aren't you asleep yet?"
[Hmph, what's wrong with you? Why are you frowning?]
Are you upset because I didn't warm your bed?
When Di Jingling heard this thought, he was both amused and exasperated.
He didn't think so.
He just found this girl incredible; she would usually be snuggled up in bed by this time of day.
Xiao Tang stood up, walked gracefully towards him, and slowly helped him remove his outer robe.
"Husband, are you hungry? Would you like some food?"
"No need, I'll eat with the Emperor in the palace."
"Oh...then wash up and go to bed?" She hadn't seen any memorials sent from the palace today, so she figured there shouldn't be much work to do.
Di Jingling glanced at her silently, feeling that this girl was strange.
"You have something to say?"
Good grief, he read my mind instantly.
Xiao Tang fiddled with her little fingers and told him about what happened to Di Youming today. Finally, she asked, "Did you really kill his father?"
"How many lives have I taken? I don't remember."
"Don't! Remember!?"
Is this reasonable?
Xiao Tang stared at his expression, sensing that something was amiss with what he had said.
Is he trying to set her up?
Di Jingling turned to look at her, narrowed her eyes slightly, and then calmly told her, "Of course, you can't believe everything Jin Lei says."
What do you mean?
Are you trying to play riddles with me? You think I won't beat you up?
Wait a minute, judging by appearances, does the main villain actually know about Di Youming's biological father?
You know, this question has been lingering in my mind for a long time.
Yan Shi was right after all.
"Want to know these things?"
Xiao Tang realized what she meant and nodded gently, "Of course, husband, there must be a reason why you've been raising other people's children for so long, right?"
This outrageous thing was done by the main villain.
This inevitably raises suspicions.
Di Jingling pursed her lips and said slowly, "He's not dead. He's fine now."
"That assassination attempt was just a feint."
"Oh? You mean you didn't kill that person."
Xiao Tang stroked her chin and looked at him.
So who is it?!
He hasn't said anything for a while!
Seeing her anxious expression, Di Jingling suddenly stopped talking and instead calmly pointed to her own profile.
This action puzzled Xiao Tang.
"What?"
The man's thin lips curled slightly. "I'm suddenly a little tired. Let's talk about it tomorrow."
[What?]
That's going too far! It's like taking your pants off and not saying a word!
The man, who had originally intended to tease her, was in a great mood, but her words caused his face to darken.
His daughter Tangtang is a real talent; she can come up with all sorts of bizarre metaphors.
Xiao Tang clearly sensed that Di Jingling was deliberately teasing her, and he was doing so in a nonchalant manner.
The way the man's lips curled up was particularly infuriating.
