The sound was deep and still, yet not deaf; one could hear the sounds outside.
He stood behind the window, looking at that familiar figure, a smug look on his face as he looked at Liu Jiaojiao, and couldn't help but scoff.
Skill? Doting on her?
This little woman is indeed very capable!
He hoped that Su Miao would remember what he said today.
Shen Changji didn't want to alert the enemy so quickly, but Liu Jiaojiao's behavior was really too much.
He actually harbored murderous intent towards Su Miao...
If he hadn't arrived in time that night, the person wrapped in white cloth would probably have been Su Miao.
How could he let the girl he met by chance die right under his nose?
Now that things have been exposed, let's just go with the flow. Given Liu Jiaojiao's current state, it won't be long before she loses her composure and reveals her true colors.
As he pondered for a long time, his deep black eyes fixed on Su Miao.
Liu Jiaojiao was so angry by Su Miao's words that she couldn't close her mouth for a long time and could only glare at Su Miao.
Because they were currently in the Duke's mansion, specifically in Shen Changji's courtyard, she couldn't lay a hand on that vile woman!
"Su Miao, don't get too cocky! We'll see about that!"
"Okay, I'll be waiting to see."
Su Miao showed no fear and met Liu Jiaojiao's gaze directly.
"How long do you think you can keep laughing? I already know you infiltrated the Duke's mansion under a false identity. If everyone finds out about this, do you think you'll still have the chance to stand here?"
As Liu Jiaojiao walked past Su Miao, she lowered her voice, but there was a dangerous undertone to it.
She originally thought that Su Miao would be somewhat unsettled upon hearing this.
But Su Miao remained calm, looking at her as if she were a monkey.
"Then you can worry about what to do if I am Su Miao who infiltrated under a false identity, but General Shen still likes me and still dotes on me!"
After all… it's just a matter of status. As long as the general holds me in his heart, these are all minor matters. I am who I am, irreplaceable by anyone, and my feelings for him are irreplaceable too.”
Su Miao raised her hand and gently flicked the fallen leaves off Liu Jiaojiao's shoulder, her eyes filled with provocation.
Liu Jiaojiao cursed "bitch" viciously and left Su Miao's side without hesitation.
Su Miao chuckled softly, took the handkerchief Tao'er offered, and wiped her hands.
She glanced at Liu Jiaojiao's furious back as she walked away, feeling a sense of satisfaction.
I guess... Liu Jiaojiao never expected that this day would come for her, right?
Their game had only just begun, and was just getting on track, when she couldn't take it anymore?
Liu Jiaojiao is only angry now. Back then, she was overwhelmed with pain and suffering. Compared to that, Liu Jiaojiao is only suffering a little bit now!
Su Miao's eyes flashed with intense hatred as she thought of the lives of those eight people.
She carried the medicine and entered the quiet, secluded study.
As soon as she entered, her gaze met that of a silent, brooding man.
"It's time to take your medicine," Su Miao said softly.
Shen Changji tried to stand up from the window, but as soon as he was about to move, he gasped and touched his shoulder, looking like he was in pain.
"hiss……"
Seeing this, Su Miao instinctively rushed over, eager to check on Shen Changji's injuries.
But she didn't realize how audacious her actions were.
He simply pulled open the loose collar of her clothes...
Shen Changji lowered his eyes and stared at her, then casually put his arm around her waist.
Because they were so close, Su Miao could feel the deep, silent breath on her forehead, and her hand paused slightly.
But the collar had already come undone, revealing long, deep, and strong muscle lines, firm and powerful, like a lion, full of strength.
He was tall and imposing, with broad, strong shoulders that exuded a strong sense of security.
She couldn't help but think of the feeling of leaning against him after each time...
Su Miao's long eyelashes trembled slightly, she swallowed hard, and quickly let go of his hand.
"You...don't feel any pain at all, right?"
"It hurts. Don't you believe me? Dr. Su, please examine me again."
As he spoke, Shen Changji made a gesture to pull away, but Su Miao quickly pressed him down.
The scene before her was already tempting enough; if it were all exposed to the public, it would be the death of her.
Most importantly, Chen Changji is quite good-looking, with a clear and deep facial contour that exudes an indescribable masculine charm.
She quickly looked away.
"No need, I know you're in pain. After you finish your medicine, I'll have Dr. Liu apply the medicine for you."
"Can't I have you?"
"I'm not good at taking care of people, so it would be good to let Lone Eagle do it."
As she spoke, Su Miao tried to break free from Chen Changji's embrace, but he held her tightly.
"Do you understand what just happened?"
Su Miao couldn't help but look up at Shen Changji. From his dark eyes, she gradually realized which matter he was referring to.
It's just... breaking off an engagement...
"I see."
"So, can I contact you in the future?"
Shen Changji gently held her chin, his voice low and slow, tinged with ambiguity.
"I don't know what you're talking about!"
Such words... are so misleading!
"I don't know, shall we give it a try?"
As he spoke, Shen Changji leaned down slightly and got closer to her.
"I...I understand! Besides, we haven't officially withdrawn yet, have we? There's always something unexpected going on."
Su Miao forced herself to speak.
Shen Changji looked at her, chuckled softly, and didn't make things difficult for her any further.
This little woman thinks far too highly of the Liu family.
Even if Liu Jiaojiao was unwilling, Liu Taipu wouldn't allow her to refuse!
