He still couldn’t find such an opportunity, so how could Xiao Baoxin let Xie Xian retreat with just a ‘self-respect’ sentence? He grabbed Xie Xian’s wrist.
This man was used to saying one thing but not the other. He clearly liked her very much in his heart, but his mouth always rejected her one after another, making her unable to refute him.
‘Could it be that Yang Shao has done something that Madam Xie knows but Eldest Lady doesn’t?’
‘Shouldn’t I find someone trustworthy to investigate Yang Shao thoroughly?’ ‘Without her, how would 1 know about Yang Shao?’
‘.. He was unhappy. Today, 1 finally know how bitter it feels to be able to help someone succeed.’
Xiao Baoxin thought unkindly after listening to her thoughts. Although he felt sour, she was very happy. She knew that he wasn’t as heartless as he said he was. What did he mean by unwilling? Perhaps he really didn’t want to, but it wasn’t that he didn’t want to.
“Big lady!” Xie Xian knew that he would not be able to pull his body back if Xiao Baoxin did not let go. With the lesson from the Green Stream Pavilion, he did not waste his time and let her hold him tightly.”Don’t worry.”
“Sorry, I was in a hurry.” Xiao Baoxin smiled and loosened his grip.
She wanted to probe his feelings, not to make him think that she was a self-respecting little girl who only wanted to seduce him.
Xie Xian lifted the curtain, and the rain instantly poured in, drenching his sleeves.”Qingfeng, tell the coachman to turn the carriage back to the back alley of the Xiao manor.”
Alright, the topic of conversation was strictly controlled.
Qingfeng and Mingyue didn’t know what was going on inside. They were originally waiting inside by the Xiao Manor, but the coachman knew. He didn’t have time to report back to their master, and the coachman went into the carriage.
At that time, the coachman automatically omitted a thousand words of mental activity.
He was the one who drove the carriage at the Qingxi Bridge the last time, so it could be said that he had long known the truth. This time, he had verified the truth.
Their master was indeed in a relationship with the eldest daughter of the Xiao family. Otherwise, they would not be alone in a car and braving the heavy rain to have a private meeting. It was already very high-end.
He automatically brought in the young and passionate love that was opposed because the two families were not compatible, but broke through many obstacles and bravely faced the secular world.
It was also because of his support for this pair of ‘unfortunate lovebirds’ that when the mistress of the household, Madam Yuan, asked about the scandal at the Qingxi Bridge, the coachman was able to withstand the heavy pressure and did not reveal a single word.
“Your mother doesn’t seem to be satisfied with General Yang.”Xie Xian said.
He couldn’t help but remind her, afraid that this mother and daughter didn’t communicate clearly, resulting in Xiao Baoxin’s affection being misplaced and not getting the approval of his family.
“Not only is my mother dissatisfied, I’m also not very satisfied.”Xiao Baoxin said bluntly. “The reason why 1 asked the constant attendant was because I had doubts about something in my heart, but 1 didn’t love him.”
Then, he said,
“You should know that I love you.”
Xie Xian’s heart was beating like a drum when he heard it, almost piercing his eardrums.
“Big lady-”
“Respect.” Xiao Baoxin rolled his eyes. “How much do you think 1 don’t respect myself? Do you think I’m frivolous and unreserved just because I express my feelings to you?”
“Not really.” Xie Xian denied it and sighed again.
He didn’t know that he was so clumsy with his words. When he met her, he seemed to not know how to speak. He was afraid that he would say the wrong thing, which would either cause a misunderstanding or hurt Xiao Baoxin.
“I just don’t want to be misunderstood. 1 also don’t want Eldest Lady to be misunderstood.”
He thought for a while and said,”Big Lady, I’m not a good person, so I can’t be entrusted.””
Xiao Baoxin wanted to laugh. This person did not want to accept her confession, but he also did not want to hurt her with his words. Her careful appearance really moved her. She had never known that she had such a bad taste.
“Then who do you think my lover is?”
Xie Xian shook his head. Even Yang Shao, who he thought was not bad, had a side that was not recognized by the Xiao family. What qualifications and ability did he have to make decisions for her?
“Yuan Chen? Yang Shao?”
“It depends on the big lady’s intentions.”
“My intentions…”
Xie Xian’s heart pounded wildly.
However, his name was not as he had imagined, and he could not help but feel disappointed.
The car suddenly stopped. It was quiet inside the car. Thunder rumbled outside and it rained heavily. After a moment of silence, Xiao Baoxin smiled.
“Do you think that I’m not worthy of you?”
Xie Xianmo, if this thought could make her give up, then so be it.
How would he know that Xiao Baoxin had such a cheat? It wasn’t just her beautiful face that was favored by the heavens. It was just a secondary aid. She could hear his heart, and even the most hidden thoughts couldn’t escape.
“If it’s just because of your body that you don’t think you can stay by my side for a long time, I think you’re thinking too much.”Xiao Baoxin restrained his smile and slowly said,
“My father was a general. When I was young, he would tell me every time he went out to war that he might not come back. If he did not come back, my brother and 1 would take care of my mother. He told me that I’m his daughter and that I have his strength in my bones. I shouldn’t be afraid of anything.”
“When fighting on the battlefield, no one has ever dared to say that they will always win. The heavens will always be on their side. I’ve learned to face these since 1 was young. Fortunately, my father won every battle and I could always welcome him back alive. However, countless people were not. They were wrapped in horse leather, and some of their corpses might not even be found…Could it be that those who went to the battlefield knew that they might not be able to return, so they didn’t have a family, came naked without any worries, and left without any worries, leaving nothing in the world, without any fetters?”
“I don’t think so.” she said. “Your problem has never been a problem for me.”
“It’s a peaceful and prosperous time now, but who knows when chaos will arrive? It was possible that the happy marriage that he was looking at now would be shattered in an instant. Who knew how long they could live?”
“Rather than being ordered by my parents and the words of a matchmaker, I only wish to be treated sincerely by one person.”
“Even if it’s just a day, it’s still a lifetime.”
“One glance, ten thousand years.”
Xie Xian would be lying if he said he wasn’t touched. His heart almost jumped out of his chest. It was completely out of control and out of rhythm.
If he could not be so rational, he would want to hug her tightly right now.
Xiao Baoxin smiled lightly at this moment and got out of the carriage.””See you next time.”
As he spoke, he didn’t care about the heavy rain outside. He stepped on the back of the carriage and jumped onto the backwall of the Xiao residence. With a little more momentum, he jumped into the courtyard.
This series of actions shocked Qingfeng and Mingyue. They didn’t even know when there was an extra person in the car.
It was still Lady Xiao!
Ming Yue looked back at the carriage in surprise. There was no movement inside.
To think that he was worried for their master. He actually didn’t even know that he had secretly crossed the line!
As a personal servant, he had failed in his duty!
Where did it go?
