The hall was so quiet that even the sound of a pin drop could be heard. Long Moxun's face turned ashen. Most people, seeing him like this, would never dare to provoke him again. Only Luo Xuening was afraid of death. She was too afraid of dying again, so she asked for a guarantee from Long Moxun in such an extreme way.

Luo Xue Ning had thought it through clearly. She had already said this. If she could not get a guarantee from Long Mo Xun, then at worst, she would not investigate the case any further. She had to realize her plan of escape before Long Mo Xun made up his mind to silence her.

Both of them had their own plans, but they made the same choice tacitly. Such an obscure statement only made them feel unhappy. So at this moment, Luo Xue Ning simply ignored Long Mo Xun's ugly expression. What Long Mo Xun thought was really none of her business.

The room was filled with silence. Luo Xue Ning clearly heard Long Mo Xun take a deep breath. Even without looking up at him, Luo Xue Ning could guess how angry Long Mo Xun must be at this moment. He was suppressing and enduring, but only because he still had some use for her.

Luo Xuening was extremely grateful that after traveling through time, she was able to bring her previous life's skills back to this life, which also became the basis for her survival.

After a long while, Long Moxun finally turned his angry gaze away from Luo Xuening. He spoke in a cold tone that was even colder than before.

"Luo Xue Ning, do you think that I owe you something?"

Instead of being as excited as Luo Xuening had imagined, Long Moxun at this moment actually seemed to want to reason with Luo Xuening.

"When I asked you to investigate the first case, you proposed a deal to me, and I agreed. So you did not wrongly investigate the first case. In the second case, I saved your aunt in exchange for the miracle doctor. There is nothing wrong with you investigating a case for me."

Luo Xue Ningxin was shocked. If she had known earlier, she shouldn't have mentioned any deal. Really... If what Long Moxun said was true, he really didn't take advantage of her.

"I don't owe you anything for either of these two cases. Why do you think I should agree to your request? Or do you think you have some talent and can act arrogantly in front of me?"

At the end of his words, Long Moxun's expression did not change, but the pressure in his words was directed directly at Luo Xuening. Luo Xuening frowned and her heart skipped a beat. Only then did she realize that under the cold appearance of Prince Jing, who was timid but strong, he actually carried the pressure of the royal family.

For a moment, she felt the wrath of the emperor, and even Luo Xue Ning, a commoner, could not help shrinking her neck. If it were someone else, they would have already knelt in front of Long Mo Xun and begged him for mercy.

Luo Xue Ning was speechless for a moment. She was far inferior to Long Mo Xun in momentum. She just said in a calm voice.

"But Prince, I am just a humble concubine. I live in the Prime Minister's Mansion and never dare to dream of stepping into the court. But, Prince, what about you? Prince, dare you say that you have never thought of taking me into your camp, or perhaps you have never thought of taking my life. What I have achieved with you is an equal transaction, but when has your husband ever treated me equally?"

There was a hint of determination in Luo Xuening's calm expression, and Long Moxun knew that she was determined to fight with him.

"So, shouldn't you thank me for taking you away from the prison in the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

Long Moxun roared, causing Luo Xuening to open her mouth in shock and unable to close it.

"......" Long Moxun, you still have some shame. When you act unreasonably, you really act like a little hooligan.

"When you talk to me about equality, you should know that there is no equality in this world. I can be said to be extremely patient with you. I did think of letting you join my camp, but I never thought of taking your life. Of course, the premise is that you will not betray me."

Long Moxun's words have been very clear. His premise is that she doesn't betray him, so how can he allow Luo Xuening to be free? In other words, even if Luo Xuening doesn't help Long Moxun, she can never break free from his bondage. Luo Xuening feels that she has really boarded a pirate ship.

This negotiation ended with Luo Xuening's failure.

Luo Xunning sighed. She was so angry that she even started to act like a child.

"I understand, Prince. Today I have really witnessed your side of making excuses. I think if I continue to follow you, sooner or later I will become a person who puts profit above all else."

This was naked provocation and ridicule, but Luo Xuening knew that Long Moxun didn't care what others thought of him, and he wouldn't mind what she thought of him.

Long Moxun just nodded: "Yes, you are right, not only do I like to argue, I also don't like others to disobey me. You are the first and the last one."

"Then I really have to thank you, Your Highness." Luo Xuening rolled her eyes in her heart. How much did she dislike Long Moxun?

"No, I should thank you. If you hadn't reminded me today, I would have almost forgotten it. From now on, I will just bury people like you who don't listen to me to save trouble."

"You..." Has this now turned into a quarrel between children?

Luo Xuening turned her face away angrily. There was really no way to communicate anymore. Luo Xuening felt that she would be pissed off to death by Long Moxun sooner or later. She acted like a prince, so cool and awesome all day long. You are a prince, that's so great.

Luo Xuening felt that she and Long Moxun were really incompatible. Otherwise, she could get along well with others, but as soon as she met Long Moxun, all her superb psychological qualities would become nothing in front of him.

Humph, Long Moxun snorted coldly, feeling that he had said nothing wrong. He said that he had no intention of killing Luo Xue Ning, but that didn't mean that he couldn't just bury her directly. Who made Luo Xue Ning so disobedient? He had already tolerated her enough.

On the treetops, the secret guards listened quietly to the conversation between the two and looked at each other in confusion.

Why are they arguing again? Just now they looked like they were going to fight or kill each other, and now they are starting to quarrel.

Hey, stop, is this a cold war?

The secret guards felt that countless dramas had been staged in this hall. It was very exciting when they listened to it from outside, and it must be even more exciting inside.

"My Lord, Miss Luo, you two are really great. You are welcome to the stage of drama.

At the critical moment, Dark Guard felt that it was time for him to take action.

"Your Highness, Miss Luo, we are all tired after a day of investigating the case. I have prepared dinner for you."

Jing is a foodie. He thinks eating is always a good way to adjust the mood. At least for him, no matter what sad things happen, as long as he has a big meal, all his worries will disappear.

Just like that day, he had a close contact with so many corpses in the morgue. He thought he would be so disgusted that he couldn't eat anything, but when he saw the food, he ate a lot and finally successfully forgot the unpleasantness in the morgue. Jingjue decided to let Prince Wang and Miss Luo try this good method.

Luo Xuening agreed with Jing's opinion very much. She had no way to deal with Long Moxun now. She could only imagine the food as Long Moxun and eat it all.

In the hall, the sound of Luo Xuening's smacking lips could soon be heard. The aroma of food wafted over to the surface. Long Moxun's stomach sang the Empty City Strategy at an inopportune moment, and he sang it so happily that everyone in the room could hear it.

He held back his laughter. Yes, he couldn't laugh at Prince Jing.

Long Moxun frowned, he was still angry. He couldn't just go to the meal so spinelessly. It was all because of Jing, that troublesome guy.

"Jing, stop eating and go guard the body of the deceased." Long Moxun gave Long Jing an assignment that was not supposed to be done.

Jing holds a mouthful of rice in his mouth."......"

People"......"

Your Highness, this is a clear case of personal revenge. Could you please have some manners as a prince?
