Xie Jian pursed his lips, thinking that the person who could exert such force must be someone in the court.
Chen Heng thought carefully about Liu Zhiyue and finally understood. It was normal for Liu Zhiyue to help her family. The Great Cong Dynasty had always ruled the country with filial piety, and everyone had been indoctrinated with this idea for years. Not helping was unfilial.
As a bystander, she was angry at the original owner for not fighting back.
But from the original owner's perspective, firstly, her mindset was rigid, and secondly, although her grandparents and younger sister had always looked down upon her, they had always provided her with food and clothing, so it would be difficult for her to completely give up.
Xie Jian was thinking about the Shen family when he saw Ah Heng wipe her feet, tiptoe to the window, gently push open the door, and seeing that no one was there, she tiptoed towards the door again. The next moment, she quickly opened the door, but there was no one at the door.
"What are you doing?" Xie Jianqi asked.
Well, she was overthinking it. Shen Heng smiled sheepishly: "Let me see if anyone is eavesdropping."
"If we had any big secret here, you might have caught the eavesdropper by now." Xie Jian looked at her with amusement.
"It's better to be careful." Shen Heng was a little embarrassed and picked up the bucket to pour water.
Xie Jianqian went over and took it.
When he entered the room, Shen Heng asked as she closed the door, "You said earlier that you were going to use a trick on Mei'er. What was your plan?"
"I don't know either." Xie Jian sat down and read again.
"Ah?" Chen Heng sat down next to him and looked at him in surprise: "If you don't know what's going on, why are you still trying to take advantage of me?"
"I can't understand Liu Zhiyue's intentions." Xie Jian always felt that the connection between them was not there. Even if their relationship was good, how could Liu Zhiyue, as the daughter of a prince, help a small family in a small county? There must be something he didn't know.
This, Xie Jian probably will never be able to guess in his lifetime, Shen Heng thought.
"But one thing is certain, if Liu Zhiyue refuses to give up, then this Mei'er will be of use one day." A person who refuses to give up will definitely cause great trouble in the future. Xie Jian was absolutely certain: "Besides, if I chase Mei'er away now, there will be another Mei'er next time. It's better to keep this one."
Looking at the sneer on Xie Jian's lips, Shen Heng was thoughtful. Unwilling? Liu Zhiyue was unwilling, probably because she didn't get her father's love, and Xie Jian was scheming against her.
Many people, after being reborn, do not want to live a good life, but want to make those who have wronged them pay the price in order to vent their anger.
But Xie Jian was right. If Liu Zhiyue was really unwilling to accept it, there would be another Mei'er if not this one.
Xie Jian, who was originally reading a book, cast his cold black eyes on Chen Heng, who was leaning her head on the table and thinking about love. The candlelight made her face look extremely warm. She always liked to blink when she was thinking about love. This face used to be gloomy and full of contempt for him. He would feel repulsed if he looked at it for a second longer.
Now I think it looks pretty good.
But during that time, Ah Heng must have hated him very much, they didn't like each other.
Fortunately, Ah Heng suddenly came to her senses and helped him.
Xie Jian was also glad that he did not push away Aheng when she held him, and he chose to believe her.
"What are you doing?" When Shen Heng looked up, she saw Xie Jian's hand stretched out in the air, as if to touch her gently, which surprised her.
Xie Jian's face turned awkward. He stretched out his hand and pinched her cheek directly, saying softly, "Don't fall asleep. I can't hold you." Although he practiced the boxing that his elder brother Gu Feng taught him every day, he didn't know if it was effective. He felt that he was stronger, so he would try it someday.
