The atmosphere in the room was tense. His gaze was as sharp as a knife. Although his face was pale, his aura didn’t weaken.
Shen Miao said, “You’re overhinking.”
“Are you hiding something from me?” Xie Jingxing asked.
Shen Miao shook her head. “No.” How should she put it? To be honest, this life was completely different from her previous life. Xie Jingxing might not really have anything to do with Consort Mei. However, because Fu Ming and Wanyu were also involved, she couldn’t think rationally.
If she did not have any feelings for Xie Jingxing, it would be much easier. What she was most afraid of was that her relationship with Xie Jingxing was mixed with something else.
Xie Jingxing looked at her deeply. Shen Miao was afraid that he would see through her, so she said, “Since you’ve recovered, you should rest well. The night is long. After taking the medicine, sleep early.” She stood up and turned to leave.
“Are you in such a hurry to leave?” Xie Jingxing’s voice came from behind. He sounded like he was aggrieved. “I heard that you haven’t come to see me for the past few days. Do you know what was on my mind when I first opened my eyes? I I thought that you must be frightened.” The corners of his mouth curled up and he lowered his eyes. “I was indeed overthinking.”
Shen Miao did not say anything. She pushed the door open and walked out. After taking a few steps, she suddenly stopped.
Xie Jingxing would definitely notice her abnormality. He was such a sensitive person. If he found out, she would not be able to explain herself. Her dealing with Chang Zaiqing was justifiable because Chang Zaiqing posed a threat to her family, but she had never seen Li Mei and her brother, and they were Xie Jingxing’s saviors. It was precisely because everyone in Long Ye knew this that Shen Miao could not kill Li Mei and her brother. Once they were dead and people suspected her, Prince Rui would also be dragged into this mess.
On one hand, it was a potential disaster for both her and Xie Jingxing, and on the other hand, she wanted to get rid of the enemies of her previous life as soon as possible. Shen Miao felt that after coming to the Daliang Dynasty, she was finally face-to-face with her greatest problem.
Ba Jiao carried the empty medicine bowl over. When she saw Shen Miao, she was stunned and said, “Madam, why did you come out so quickly? Aren’t you going to spend more time with Master?”
“There’s no need.” Shen Miao said, “Take good care of him.” She walked forward without looking back.
Two days later, Mo Qing came to Shen Miao with the information he had gathered.
He said, “This pair of siblings is from Qinzhou. They’re the children of a merchant. However, they were adopted. The wife of this merchant died early. Before the merchant died, he told them that the two of them were not his biological children. After burying their adoptive father, they came to Long Ye to look for their relatives. However, there is no progress so far.”
“Impossible.” Shen Miao stood up.
Mo Qing said, “That’s all the information I can get. I got someone to ask around in Qinzhou. All the neighbors said so. They watched this pair of siblings grow up.”
“Are you sure Li Mei has never been to Ming Qi?” Shen Miao was so anxious that she dug her nails into her palms.
“She’s never taken a long journey. This is the first time she’s been outside Qinzhou,” Mo Qing said.
Shen Miao closed her eyes.
“Over the past two days, Li Mei and Li Ke would go to the Ji mansion to talk to Madam Ji. Other than that, they didn’t do anything special.”
Shen Miao asked, “Then have they seen His Highness?”
“No. Without being summoned, no one can see His Highness in person, not even his savior,” Mo Qing replied.
