Venomous Empress Reborn

Chapter 83: Meeting the Young Marquis at Night (4)

“No one knows. What’s wrong with that?” Shen Miao did not intend to listen to the two girls. She looked at Xie Jingxing and said, “Come in.”

Xie Jingxing shrugged and followed Shen Miao into the inner room. Under the uneasy gazes of the two maids, Shen Miao closed the door calmly.

Shen Miao lit the oil lamp and closed the window to block out the rain.

Xie Jingxing stood against the wall with interest and asked, “Why aren’t you afraid of me?”

“Why should I be afraid of you?” Shen Miao asked.

“Aren’t you afraid that I’ll do something to you?” His smile became even more sinister, but he also looked even more handsome under the light.

“We’ve just witnessed a love affair. Is there anything else I need to be afraid of?” Shen Miao said indifferently.

Xie Jingxing was stunned for a moment, and a look of disbelief appeared on his handsome face. Over the years, he had experienced many things. He had seen everything that others should have seen at his age, and he had also seen things that others should not have seen at his age. At least in the capital, or even Ming Qi, he was considered knowledgeable. However, this was the first time a woman mentioned the word “love affair” to him without batting an eyelid.

He couldn’t see Shen Miao’s expression in the darkness under the bed. Now that he thought about it, ever since he went out, Shen Miao’s voice and attitude were both very calm. It was as if she had experienced it many times.

“Are you a girl or not?” Xie Jingxing crossed his arms.

Ordinary girls would be too embarrassed to ever mention having seen others having a love affair. However, she brought it up like it was nothing. Was it because she was the daughter of the mighty general?

Shen Miao didn’t say anything.

Although Shen Miao acted like she was much older than her age, she looked very cute and young, especially her fair face. When she was not talking, she was nothing different from any other teenage girls. Xie Jingxing thought that she was probably too young and did not know what love affair meant.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case. Xie Jing walked over and looked down at Shen Miao. “I haven’t settled the score with you for the incense just now. I almost got affected too.” He grabbed Shen Miao’s cheeks and pinched them.

Shen Miao was stunned for a moment. She did not expect Xie Jing to suddenly do this. He seemed to find joy in doing that and pinched her cheeks again.

“How dare you!” She subconsciously shouted.

As soon as she said that, both of them were stunned.

In the light, the young man’s handsome face froze, and a complicated expression flashed across his sharp black eyes. He retracted his hand and chuckled, saying indifferently, “This is the first time someone shouted at me like that.”

Shen Miao was a little angry at herself for losing her composure. Xie Jingxing was always unpredictable. Just now, annoyed by him, she actually talked like an empress. This person was very smart. She didn’t want to be discovered. However, she didn’t know what to say, so she could only remain silent.

Xie Jingxing broke the silence. He sat down on the chair opposite Shen Miao and poured himself a cup of tea. Suddenly, he thought of something and took out a paper bag to open it. It was an exquisite pastry, looking much better than the one made in Guangfu Restaurant in the capital.
