Chapter 188: Rescuing

"Because there is no reason to watch with folded arms." Shen Miao said.

Xie Jing Xing was silent.

Shen Miao knew it herself that her reason was not justified. In the eyes of others, before cooperating with Pei Lang, she did not have any interaction with Pei Lang even though there was a name of him being a teacher and her a student in Guang Wen Tang, not a few words were passed between them on normal days. When one was not familiar with another but still gave important responsibilities to him and did not have a trace of doubt at all, in another eyes, this was naturally very strange.

Particularly Xie Jing Xing was not a careless person and paid great attention to details that others neglected, making one feel timid with his acute sense.

However there were many things could not be understood. She could not speak about the things in her previous lifetime. Not only others would not believe, even she was unable to convince herself.

Shen Miao thought that Xie Jing Xing would continue probing but he nodded his head, "Alright."

Shen Miao was startled and release a sigh of relief.

The most satisfying thing about working with Xie Jing Xing was that before he was a friend, Xie Jing Xing would think of ways to learn all the secrets of another but upon becoming friends, he would respect others and not force one to speak of things they did not want to.

Of course, perhaps he would be able to figure things out through his own methods.

"However." Xie Jing Xing muttered, "There are many guards in the residence of Prince Ding. It is not simple to rescue someone under Fu Xiu Yi's eyes."

Shen Miao's heart moved, "You want to personally take action?"

"Else?" One could not hear anger or happiness in his tone of voice but there was some inexplicable feelings, "The person that you personally request to rescue, how could I dare to make a mistake?"

Shen Miao looked at him hesitantly. Currently Xie Jing Xing's identity was already a headache because of Princess Rong Xin and Su Ming Feng but fortunately these two people had slight affection for Xie Jing Xing in the past but there was none with Fu Xiu Yi. If Fu Xiu Yi knew of Xie Jing Xing's identity, if he did not take the opportunity to stir up matters then Shen Miao would have wasted so many years of knowing him.

"You... Be more careful." Shen Miao said, "I do not want to become a widow shortly after marriage."

Xie Jing Xing said, "How could you curse yourself like this?" He then smiled, "Don't worry. You will not become a widow."

Shen Miao, "..." Forget about it. This person was definitely playing with her when he said those words. Xie Jing Xing was such a cautious person and would not personally take action. She had thought too much.

After talking for a while more, the servant by Luo Xue Yan's side came over to inform them that it was time to eat. Shen Miao and Xie Jing Xing walked out and the entire meal was eaten very harmoniously. Xie Jing Xing would even coax the then Princess Rong Xin, who was unwilling to be close to anyone, till she was happy much less the forthright and joyous Luo Xue Yan. He was knowledgeable and eloquent that even Luo Ling was unable to help but be attracted by some of his perspective.

Even a discerning person like Shen Xin was unable to say anything. Shen Qiu remembered what Shen Xin said to him in the afternoon, to let him exchange blows with Prince Rui for learning purposes, so during midway of the meal, he threw out a sentence loudly, "Today one had eaten too much so MeiFu, later accompany this Eldest Brother and exchange blows. One cannot just sit in the house all day and our family males should always be active."
