597 Asking for A Kiss (2)
In that case, the two of them really had something in common.
Shen Miao suddenly found Xie Jingxing a little more tolerable.
When Xie Jingxing saw her gaze, he was slightly stunned. Then, he said, “What kind of gaze is that? Sympathy for me?”
Shen Miao smiled. “I can’t even protect myself. What right do I have to sympathize with others? Prince Rui is someone who can do whatever he wants. Why do you need me to sympathize with you?” Shen Miao said with a hint of mockery. Perhaps even she did not realize that her words actually made Xie Jingxing feel better.
Xie Jingxing raised his eyebrows and glanced at Shen Miao. Suddenly, he placed his hands on the table and leaned closer to Shen Miao. He smiled and said, “You don’t have to belittle yourself. You are my ally, so naturally you are above most people.” His voice seemed to be deliberately lowered, carrying a trace of warmth. He said slowly, “Of course, if you’re my woman, you will have everything you want in this world.”
His eyebrows were extremely beautiful. In her previous life, Shen Miao had seen countless handsome men in the palace, but she had never seen such a good-looking one. It was not just his exterior that made him shine, but more so because of the innate elegance that he exuded through his every move. When he stared at people carefully, he would give them the illusion that in this world, there wasn’t a third person.
His gaze landed on Shen Miao’s lips and slowly lowered his head.
The shadows, one tall and one petite, intertwined under the flickering light.
Shen Miao’s heart palpitated and she subconsciously pushed Xie Jingxing away. She probably felt that her action was too abrupt and clumsy, so she picked up the cold tea in front of her and took a sip. However, she forgot that Xie Jingxing had just drunk from this cup. She coughed lightly and turned her head away from his face, but her face slowly began to redden.
Xie Jingxing fell back down on the chair from Shen Miao’s push. When he looked up, he saw Shen Miao hurriedly bringing tea over to her mouth to drink. The displeasure from just now was gone, and he suddenly found it funny.
He said lazily, “Hey.”
Shen Miao did not look at him and lowered her head to look at the shadow on the ground. The smile in Xie Jingxing’s eyes deepened, and he deliberately teased, “Are you telling me you are being shy?”
Shen Miao suddenly raised her head and glared at him.
However, even this angry glare made her look soft because of the warm light in the room. Unlike her usual dignified self, at this moment, she was embarrassed and angry. Her fair face was slightly red, as if she was drunk, making her look even more charming. Suddenly, she reminded Xie Jingxing of that winter night two years ago. She was wearing an inner robe with her long hair draped over her shoulder. She was drunk and muttered that she wanted to see fireworks.
Xie Jingxing smiled and said, “Shen Miao.”
“What is it?” Shen Miao was filled with anger. If he got tough on her or played some tricks, Shen Miao would be able to handle him calmly. However, Xie Jingxing teased her like he was teasing a little girl. This was outrageous, but Shen Miao didn’t know what to do. In her previous life, the people she interacted with were all old-fashioned people who adhered to the palace rules and etiquette. She had never encountered someone as arrogant and unruly as Xie Jingxing.
