As soon as Ren Yaoqi finished speaking, he was stunned.
She had almost forgotten what she was like in her previous life, but in this life, she was definitely not rash or impatient.
Xiao Jingxi was clearly a dangerous person, and even if they hadn't clashed yet, it would still be difficult to predict the future. But why was she so impulsive as to say something so senseless in front of Xiao Jingxi?
Xiao Jingxi was also stunned.
The two of them just stared at each other, neither of them saying a word.
"Cough." Xiao Jinglin coughed lightly and glanced at the two of them. Seeing that they had come to their senses, they turned their heads back to pay attention to the competition outside as if it had nothing to do with them, as if they were not affected by the previous atmosphere at all.
Ren Yaoqi was angry, but Xiao Jingxi was in a complicated mood.
The two of them were so preoccupied with their own thoughts that even when they came to their senses, they were both speechless for a moment.
"It depends on whether it's useful or not." After a long silence, just when Ren Yaoqi thought that Xiao Jingxi would not want to continue this topic with her, Xiao Jingxi suddenly spoke.
Ren Yaoqi turned Xiao Jingxi's tongue-twister-like words slightly in his mind, and suddenly he had a feeling of seeing the moon through the clouds.
She had previously believed the Yanbei Palace wanted to use the Han family, but now the Lei family had emerged, their power and momentum rivaling the Han family. Furthermore, because the Lei family's head was so young, they lacked the aging, decadent look of other aristocratic families. Thinking back to Xiao Jingxi's words, she realized there might be more than one hand behind the Yanbei Palace. There were more than just two families like the Han and Lei families, but in the end, only the Han and Lei families stood out. The other families behind them began to act as shadowy forces.
However, there is no room for two tigers in one mountain. The Yanbei Palace will eventually need to make a choice between the Han family and the Lei family. The one that wins in the end will truly become the knife in the hands of the Yanbei Palace.
This could explain why Ren Yaoqi had no impression of the Lei family in his previous life. It was very likely that in the final battle between the Lei and Han families, the Lei family was defeated as soon as they showed their face, leaving the Han family the last laugh.
"Will the Yanbei Palace not take action?" Ren Yaoqi looked at Xiao Jingxi and asked.
She was asking whether the Yanbei Palace would not intervene in the conflict between the Han and Lei families. Although her question was vague, she believed Xiao Jingxi understood.
Sure enough, Xiao Jingxi understood. Not only did he understand, but he also put away the surprise in his heart.
He had just witnessed Ren Yaoqi's intelligence, sharpness and ability to apply what he had learned, so if he continued to be surprised, it would seem like he was being overly surprised.
Obviously, this kind of thing should not be revealed from his mouth, but for some reason, Xiao Jingxi did not feel any regret at all.
"No." He took a sip of tea and replied firmly.
Expected answer.
Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but sigh.
Xiao Jingxi smiled, glanced at Ren Yaoqi and said, "The Lei family may not lose."
He naturally knew that Ren Yaoqi didn't want the Yanbei Palace to choose the Han family in the end. So between the Han family and the newly emerged Lei family, Ren Yaoqi hoped that the Lei family would win.
Ren Yaoqi couldn't help but smile bitterly, because she knew that the Lei family would definitely lose, and they would be defeated miserably before the two families actually faced off.
At this time, there was a cheer and the sound of drums coming from the river and the river bank.
It felt like the first inning was over.
