Chapter 94 Very Sweet

After being dazed for a moment, Xie Zhuoning quickly came to his senses.

Xiao Jinxuan only said that he would only marry one wife in his life, but he didn't say that he would marry her. Why was she so nervous?

Besides, marrying a wife doesn't mean having only one woman.

Even if her position was as important as that of a concubine, to put it in a lower way, she was nothing more than a concubine.

etc……

She raised her head suddenly, squinted her eyes and looked at Xiao Jinxuan carefully, "Didn't you say you wouldn't get married?"

In his previous life, Xiao Bicheng tried to arrange a marriage for him several times, but he always rejected it forcefully.

He was alone until she died.

Why are you suddenly saying you want to get married?

Xiao Jinxuan remained calm and said, "It's just that I haven't met the right person before."

Xie Zhuoning propped his chin up in thought, "I didn't meet the right person before, so I have met the right person now, right?"

"Yeah." Xiao Jinxuan admitted without hesitation, "You're so smart, do you want to guess who it is?"

His eyes were so bright and blazing that Xie Zhuoning's pupils shrank and he turned his head to the side, looking away.

"No, it's boring. Let's talk business. Why do you think the Queen would post to me?"

Xiao Jinxuan curled his fingers slightly, and his eyelashes moved slightly, hiding the lonely look that flashed across his eyes.

When he spoke, his voice was slow, "It's just that the drunkard's intention is not to drink anymore."

That was directed at Xiao Jinxuan.

Xie Zhuoning's eyes flickered, "It seems that the Queen and Xiao Bicheng want to bribe you through me."

I just don’t know, will they use intimidation or inducement?

"If you don't want to go, you don't have to go. I'll talk to the Queen." Xiao Jinxuan actually didn't want her to go to the banquet.

Even though she was wearing a human skin mask, there was still a chance that she would be recognized by others.

Once the identity is exposed, the consequences will be disastrous.

Xie Zhuoning shook his head and said, "Of course I'm going to go. I'm here to inform you, not to discuss it with you."

If she didn't go, that old bastard Minister Song would marry Song Yuqiu to the big fool from the Yin family.

She saw with her own eyes how badly Xie Wanyin was tortured by Yin Lei last time.

Therefore, we must never let this happen.

"Then I'll go with you." Xiao Jinxuan said.

Since she is his mistress, it is logically appropriate for him to bring her along.

Xie Zhuoning raised the corners of his eyes and glanced at him secretly.

He had a serious expression on his face, not pretending to be hypocritical, and his resolute eyebrows were sharp.

But when I looked over, the outline softened.

The light in his eyes seemed to be able to drown people.

Xie Zhuoning's heart skipped a beat, fearing that he would continue to sink, so he quickly diverted his attention, took out a medicine bottle, and forced it into his hand.

"This is for you."

"Hmm?" Xiao Jinxuan looked at her inquiringly.

Xie Zhuoning explained, "I asked someone to prescribe this pill for you. It's specially for treating stomach problems. Just take one pill a day."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jinxuan nodded slightly, used his slender knuckles to pick open the cork, took out a brown pill, and put it into his mouth.

"Hey!" He moved too fast, and Xie Zhuoning was too late to call him. "Why don't you test the poison first? Aren't you afraid that I will poison you to death?"

Xiao Jinxuan looked at her calmly, "Why do you want to poison me?"

"I..." Xie Zhuoning was speechless for a moment.

You can't just say, you killed me in my last life, so I'm going to kill you in this life to avenge you, right?

That’s ridiculous!

Just as she was hesitating, Xiao Jinxuan suddenly frowned and said, "It's so bitter."

Xie Zhuoning suddenly came to his senses and quickly took out an oil-paper bag from his pocket, "Wait a moment."

When she asked Ayu to help prepare the medicine, she did not say it was for Xiao Jinxuan, but for herself.

Ah Yu then warned her that although the pill was effective, it was extremely bitter and was best taken with candy or preserved fruit.

So when she came over, she asked Fuling to pack a small bag of candy.

The oil paper was opened, and the aroma of candy instantly filled the air. She picked up one and naturally put it to Xiao Jinxuan's mouth.

Xiao Jinxuan's mouth corners suddenly raised slightly.

When she leaned closer to take the medicine, he smelled a sweet fragrance that did not belong to her.

Just a quick try confirmed his guess.

She couldn't bear to let him suffer even the slightest bit, so how could she harm herself?

Xie Zhuoning's hands were sore from holding them up, and seeing that he still refused to speak, he simply withdrew his hands and said, "Forget it."

But at this moment, Xiao Jinxuan suddenly opened her mouth and held the candy, along with her fingertips holding the candy.

As slender as jade, as white and tender as porcelain.

Xie Zhuoning's knuckles felt as if they were electrified, and his eyes widened in shock.

After being stunned for a second, she hastily pulled her hand back, only to feel her entire arm going numb.

On the other hand, Xiao Jinxuan was very calm and "very sweet."

I don’t know if it’s sugar or something else.

Xie Zhuoning: "..."

Could it be that Xiao Jinxuan was like Ah Yu, whose soul was replaced by someone else?

Is this something that the bright and upright His Royal Highness Prince Xuan would do?

She stepped back a little, her heart in a mess, as if her belly was filled with warm water, swaying back and forth.

No...

This doesn't feel right...

She quickly reached out and touched her neck.

The feeling of an arrow piercing his throat in his previous life seemed to come back to his mind, and a chill instantly spread throughout his body.

She suddenly became much more sober.

"It's getting late. I should go back."

"This is for you." Xiao Jinxuan called her and pushed a box in front of her.

She raised her eyebrows in confusion, "What is this?"

She reached out to unlock the box, and the light that came out of it almost blinded her.

There was a huge box filled with South China pearls, mixed with dozens of Eastern pearls that were bigger than pigeon eggs!

"For me?" She was a little uncertain.

Xiao Jinxuan carefully looked at her expression, "Don't like it?"

How could I not like it?

When Minister Song first presented her with a palm-sized box of South China pearls, she was able to control her feelings.

But seeing this huge box full of stuff, it was hard for her not to be moved!

There's nothing she can do. She's a vulgar person and she just likes to look at these shiny and priceless things.

only……

"Isn't it too expensive? After all, there is no reward without merit, and I don't want to owe you anything."

She was afraid that if she accepted Xiao Jinxuan's gifts, she would have to find a way to repay the favor in the future.

Not worth it.

Xiao Jinxuan, who was originally in a good mood, suddenly turned cold, "I don't want to owe anyone a favor. These beads are just money to buy medicine."

Money for medicine?

Xie Zhuoning's heart instantly dropped to the ground.

If she said that, then she would have a clear conscience.

Seeing her let out a long sigh of relief, Xiao Jinxuan felt extremely upset.

This girl, does she really have to settle accounts with him?

That night, a sudden rain came.

It was pouring down, filling the sky.

There were not many people on the street anymore. Xiao Jinxuan, holding an oil-paper umbrella, walked Xie Zhuoning to the door.

"Be careful on your journey."

"Got it." Xie Zhuoning nodded obediently and turned to get in the car.

Suddenly, my eyes met with someone's.

The rain was very heavy and the people had already taken shelter in their houses.

But that person was standing alone in the rain with an umbrella, his figure gradually becoming clearer.

When Xie Zhuoning saw that gorgeous and charming face covered in a strange mist, his heart skipped a beat.

It's over, she thought.

Ye Wuque stared at her closely, his eyes were strangely cold, "Xiao Cao'er, you seem to have forgotten what you promised me. Do you want me to help you recall it?"
