Shen Miao could not hide her surprise.
She really did not expect Xie Jingxing to take off his mask so easily and admit his identity in front of Su Mingfeng, just like how he did in front of Princess Rong Xin.
The more precious a relationship was, the less they should test it, because if the test result was not something you could bear, it would leave a deep and indelible scar in your heart.
If it were Shen Miao herself, she might not be so honest. After all, she did not dare or have the courage to face the uncertainty.
In this aspect, she was never as decisive as Xie Jingxing. He indeed knew what he wanted and did not want.
“How did you become Prince Rui?” Su Mingfeng patted his chest. “Just now, I was thinking that if Prince Rui wanted to kill me, I would die here today.” He said, “Now, I don’t have to die.”
His tone was filled with excitement.
Xie Jingxing looked at him and said, “After not seeing you for two years, you’ve become more and more stupid.”
Su Mingfeng waved his hand. “I knew you weren’t dead.” He sighed again. “If not for the fact that Princess Rong Xin came to look for me that day and I saw the tiger head bracelet on Miss Shen’s hand, I’m afraid I would still be kept in the dark by you. Were you planning to hide it from me forever?” he said angrily.
Xie Jingxing shrugged. “Yes.”
Su Mingfeng was often teased by Xie Jingxing in the past. Now, he was not particularly angry. He only said in confusion, “It seems like Miss Shen already knows your identity.” He chuckled and looked at Shen Miao, saying meaningfully, “Back then, I felt that something was going between you two. You’ve been hiding it well.”
Shen Miao was speechless.
“What exactly do you want to say?” Xie Jingxing said impatiently, “I still have something to say to your sister-in-law.”
Shen Miao and Su Mingfeng were shocked by the word “sister-in-law” at the same time. Su Mingfeng glanced at Xie Jingxing and said, “Since you’re still alive, why didn’t you tell me? Moreover, it seems like Princess Rong Xin has begun to suspect your identity. Why didn’t you take the initiative to tell her? And your father…”
“Su Mingfeng.” Xie Jingxing interrupted him. “I’m Prince Rui of the Daliang Dynasty.”
The courtyard fell silent.
Shen Miao sighed in her heart. Sooner or later, this confrontation had to come.
With Xie Jingxing’s identity, no one in the capital would stand on his side. No matter who it was, when they realized the truth, they would only feel betrayed. No matter what difficulties Xie Jingxing had, no one cared.
Princess Rong Xin doted on Xie Jingxing like her own son, but in the end, she couldn’t help but be vigilant upon knowing the truth. Su Mingfeng was naturally overjoyed to see his old friend safe and sound, but after that short period of joy, it would slowly be replaced by vigilance.
This was human nature.
Su Mingfeng looked at Xie Jingxing in confusion and asked, “What are you talking about? By the way, is becoming Prince Rui a temporary solution you used back then to escape death on the battlefield? Although the status of Prince Rui is high, it’s not a permanent solution. You have to…”
“I’m Prince Rui of the Daliang Dynasty,” Xie Jingxing repeated.
The room fell into silence again.
