Chapter 694: Seeing Each Other (3)
"Impossible." Xie Jingxing flatly rejected her proposal and said, "Su Mingfeng and I have known each other for many years. He is cunning and intelligent. I can't hide it from him."
Shen Miao had a headache, but she felt a little resentful towards Xie Jingxing. Since this tiger head ring had such a long history, why not just give it away casually? It was only because she was wearing the tiger head ring today that Su Mingfeng happened to see it.
"So what?" Even though Shen Miao was smart, she didn't know what to do. Every profession has its own expertise, and she didn't understand the concept of concealing one's identity.
Xie Jingxing shook his head: "If you find it, just find it. Don't pay attention to it."
“Won’t this bring you trouble?” Shen Miao frowned and asked, “The Su family is still the official family of Mingqi after all, and you are from Daliang. Maybe he will think you are a spy sent by the enemy country... There will be endless troubles.” It’s not that Shen Miao thinks badly of people, it’s just that this is how it is. For a little bit of benefit, sisters in the harem can harm each other, not to mention that this is related to the interests of the two countries.
Friendship between friends is the most precious, and therefore the most vulnerable to deception.
Xie Jingxing glanced at her slowly, then suddenly raised the corner of his lips and said, "Are you worried about me?"
Shen Miao was stunned for a moment, then said, "I'm concerned about myself." After a pause, she added, "You and I are now on the same boat. If you are discovered, it's hard to guarantee that I won't be implicated, and the Shen family will be dragged into the water. It's not worth the loss."
Xie Jing Xing was a little amused: "Don't worry, you won't lose anything by being an ally of this king."
Shen Miao was used to his arrogance and did not take his words to heart. However, she suddenly thought of something and said, “By the way, are you really not going to stop Su Mingfeng?”
"How long do you think I'll have to wear my mask?" Xie Jingxing suddenly asked.
Shen Miao didn’t understand what he meant and remained silent.
"My identity will be known sooner or later." Xie Jingxing said calmly: "If it's not Su Mingfeng, it will be someone else."
Shen Miao was startled, a little puzzled, and asked again, "Then have you ever thought about what your... relatives would think if your identity were known? Marquis Lin'an, Princess Rongxin, Su Mingfeng, and others..." Even if others knew, they would at most be surprised. But what would Xie Jingxing's closest friends think? Xie Jingxing was facing questions from his closest relatives, and even Shen Miao couldn't imagine it.
Even though she herself had been betrayed and hurt in her past life, at least she was on the same side as the Shen family. However, with the revelation of Xie Jingxing's true identity as the King Rui of Daliang, the situation became much more complicated.
Xie Jingxing smiled nonchalantly: "So what if they know?" He said: "It doesn't matter if the whole world hates me." He looked at Shen Miao, and for a moment his smile had a bit of evil in it: "I'm not afraid."
But for some reason, Shen Miao was actually somewhat saddened by his smile. She always felt that this handsome young man was not as ruthless as he looked.
Shen Miao was still thinking to herself when Xie Jingxing suddenly touched her head. He said, "Don't take the bracelet off. Since I gave it to you, you don't have to worry about being recognized."
Shen Miao actually didn't like people touching her head. How would it look if the Queen of a country got the news of someone touching her head? Even if Shen Qiu touched her head, Shen Miao would be unhappy, but today, for the first time ever, she allowed Xie Jingxing to do what he wanted.
She sighed in her heart and decided not to worry about so many things today.
Xie Jingxing stood up and said, "I thought you had something urgent to do, so I'll leave first." He said, "If you have any problems in the future, just call Congyang. He is your secret guard now, so there is no need to open the window and wait for me. I will wake you up when I arrive."
He said it naturally, and Shen Miao didn't think there was anything wrong. It was not until Xie Jingxing left that Shen Miao realized that his words were too ambiguous.
