Chapter 738 Bed Bang (5)
Xie Jingxing put another piece of letter into the envelope and said, "What's going on with Pei Lang? I'll find out." After a pause, he said, "And Feng Zixian and Su Mingfeng." He frowned slightly, suddenly remembering something and asked, "How's the matter with the medicinal herbs going?"
Tieyi hurriedly said, "We've sent someone to look for it. Once they find it, they'll send it to the clinic immediately." Princess Rongxin's heart disease has been recurring recently, and one of the ingredients in the prescription is extremely scarce and only available in spring. All the ingredients in Dingjing City's clinic have been sold to the princess's residence. These days, Princess Rongxin has no new ingredients and can only carry them. Xie Jingxing had someone secretly search for them from outside for a large sum of money, and then "conveniently" sell them to the clinic.
"As soon as possible." Xie Jingxing pursed his lips and said. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly stood up, put on his coat and was about to go out.
Tieyi was stunned: "Master, are you still going out?"
"The accounts haven't been settled yet." Xie Jingxing snorted coldly and walked away.
…
It was already quiet outside the Shen residence, and Shen Miao's boudoir was also already pitch black, obviously she had been asleep for a long time.
When Xie Jingxing arrived, Congyang was sleeping in a tree. Seeing him coming, he was so frightened that he almost fell down from the tree. He quickly got down and stood straight to salute Xie Jingxing.
Xie Jingxing glanced towards the window, and Congyang quickly said, "Young Madam has gone to bed."
Xie Jingxing walked to the window and saw something like a jade ring on the windowsill, with a pendant underneath. Xie Jingxing looked at Congyang with a questioning look. Congyang said, "This is the peace pendant that Luo Ling secretly placed on the windowsill after the young lady rested. The young lady hasn't found it yet."
Xie Jingxing's eyes flickered slightly when he heard this. He picked up the safety pendant with the tip of the dagger in his sleeve and threw it into Cong Yang's arms, saying, "Keep it."
Cong Yang was stunned for a moment, then he heard Xie Jing Xing continue, "The pet at home is missing a pendant."
Cong Yang: “…”
While Cong Yang was speechless, Xie Jing Xing had already opened the window and walked in with ease.
On the bed in the room, Shen Miao was sleeping soundly.
Xie Jingxing walked to the edge of the bed, crossed his arms and stared at it for a while, then raised his eyebrows and said, "You can sleep well. It seems you didn't take my words to heart. You're quite brave."
He sat down beside the couch, casually scooped up a cup of tea from the table in front of the window and took a sip, then turned to look at Shen Miao's sleeping face.
When the girl slept, she lost her usual dignified, calm, and distant air. She shed all her outward disguises, revealing her true self. In the moonlight, her delicate features, delicate and childlike, finally reminded one that she was a mere sixteen-year-old, a fact that couldn't be overlooked simply because of her circumstances and the methods she displayed.
Thinking of Shen Miao's appearance during the day when he pinched her chin and tried her best to hold back her tears, Xie Jingxing felt a little guilty.
He reached out to push the messy hair on Shen Miao's forehead behind her ears, but saw the girl's eyelashes tremble slightly. Xie Jingxing paused, looking down, and saw the body wrapped in the cup trembling almost imperceptibly.
He was actually pretending to be asleep.
Xie Jingxing raised his eyebrows and simply sat a little closer, supporting himself with his hands on either side of Shen Miao's body, leaning forward slightly, and his ambiguous and magnetic voice rang out softly in the room.
"You've helped me so many times, why not repay me with your body?"
He stared into Shen Miao's eyes and slowly leaned forward.
Shen Miao's body was extremely stiff. The breathing sound seemed to be right beside her mouth, and the oppressive feeling from above was getting closer and closer. She suddenly pushed Xie Jingxing away and was about to sit up, angrily saying, "What do you want to do?"
The voice was somewhat panicked.
