He's not that kind of person anymore.
Thinking of something, Xie Yin's expression became somewhat heated as he stared intently at Xi Xingxue, trying to see the soft heart beneath his cold exterior.
Upon hearing Xie Yin's words, Xi Xingxue could no longer pretend.
The reason for the disguise is that he cannot do anything that is too inconsistent with his character, because his superiors would accuse him of deliberately sabotaging the plot.
However, he has already been bound by the character's established rules for a month, so his personality and reactions can be as free as he pleases, as long as they don't involve the plot.
Simply put, he can perform small, seemingly unintentional actions.
"Really? Xie Yin, do you think you know me very well?"
Xie Yin felt somewhat helpless; he detected a hint of hostility in Xi Xingxue's voice.
"My lord, don't worry about me. My feelings for you are genuine."
When Xie Yin said this, his tone even carried a hint of doting.
Xi Xingxue finally realized that something was wrong.
Clearly, Xie Yin no longer hated him as much, but he still took away the evidence that could bring him down, which proves that Xie Yin still had the will to control himself.
Xi Xingxue remained silent for a long time, gazing at him quietly: "So, what do you want to say?"
Upon hearing this, Xie Yin's smile widened, extending into a radiant arc.
At that moment, he straightened his back, and his entire demeanor underwent a tremendous change, as if he were no longer a male concubine groveling at Xi Xingxue's feet.
Instead, he was once the respected and noble prince.
“I got what you had.”
Xie Yin's eyes sparkled as he stared intently at Xi Xingxue's face, not missing a single change in expression.
He was testing the waters, trying to solidify an idea.
We need to determine whether this "thing" was deliberately left behind by Xi Xingxue.
Xi Xingxue also keenly sensed that something was wrong, but he had already made preparations before getting into the car, so he didn't notice anything unusual.
"What is it? Xie Yin, what exactly do you want to do? Just say it directly, neither of us are stupid."
Xie Yin took out a booklet. The booklet looked very familiar; it was the very booklet that Xi Xingxue used every time she refined pills.
Xie Yin said calmly, "Your identity as a Taoist priest is fake, and your position as the Imperial Preceptor was obtained through deception. If I expose you, you will be doomed. Therefore, I can use this to blackmail you."
His words were full of danger, yet his tone and expression showed no hostility whatsoever.
Xie Yin clearly did the same thing as in the original story, threatening Xi Xingxue.
However, this time, things changed. He was simply reiterating the facts and telling Xi Xingxue about his crisis.
Instead of immediately creating a crisis for Xi Xingxue.
Xi Xingxue looked at the booklet in his hand and let out a muffled laugh: "My identity is destined not to be hidden for long. In just a few months, I will be able to find the real Lingyun Immortal Mountain person to expose me."
"I'm just surprised that you were the first to find the evidence, Xie Yin. You're very lucky."
Xie Yin carefully observed all the expressions on Xi Xingxue's face, and finally smiled gently.
"Isn't my good fortune a gift from you?"
Xi Xingxue was stunned and looked up at him.
Xie Yin's expression was calm and peaceful; he looked as if he were looking at a friend, not an enemy.
And it was precisely this that made Xi Xingxue understand.
Xie Yin probably knows.
She knew that she had been deliberately helping him, and even knew that she had intentionally exposed the booklet to him so that he could find something to use against her.
As for why Xie Yin was so sure that she was treating him so well...
It seems Xie Yin has seen through his disguise as 'Miss Tingyun' and his secret rescue of him.
After learning about this, Xie Yin did not immediately expose him, but instead used some rhetoric to inquire about Xi Xingxue.
Because Xie Yin seemed to have figured it out again: Xi Xingxue's help to him couldn't be revealed openly.
Xie Yin probably believed that someone was manipulating Xi Xingxue, forcing her to do all sorts of bad things to him.
However, Xi Xingxue herself kept it a secret from the person behind her back and tried every means to help him.
Xie Yin was very clever.
