Xie Xian would always anticipate the worst outcome.
Those who could bear it, naturally, they would bear it, but they would not take the initiative to look for Luo Luan.
He knew that it would bring endless trouble, but he didn’t want to do it.
However, when he received the news, it was already two days before the new emperor ascended the throne. What was done was done, and everything was set in stone.
Perhaps this was fate.
Even in his dreams, he would never have thought that this was actually related to his past life. It was complicated and messy.
Xiao Jing ‘ai was a blabbermouth. Whenever he was unhappy, he would shout. The maids listened as if they didn’t hear him. They were all servants and had signed a death contract. Although Xiao Jing’ ai was crazy, he was generous to his servants. From time to time, he would reward them with silver. Because of his extravagance, he had a lot of unhappy times with his mother-in-law. He still managed to win over some servants.
However, everyone had their own rules. Some knew how to repay kindness, and some wanted to gain more.
If it was possible, Xie Xian really didn’t want to believe Xiao Jing ‘ai.
However, he had to admit that Xiao Baoxin believed him. Otherwise, the two of them wouldn’t have been at loggerheads over and over again.
Then the question was whether Xiao Baoxin had listened to Xiao Jing ‘ai’s inner thoughts and believed her, or whether he was reborn like Xiao Jing’ ai. It was intriguing.
Xie Xian didn’t want to pursue the matter.
‘A sick ghost who doesn’t have many years to live’ or ‘deliberately using Xie Xian to urge the Xiao family’ or ‘abandoning Yang Shao’.
In front of Xiao Baoxin, he could pretend that he didn’t care. As long as she was in front of him, he would be satisfied with everything. However, only God knew that these words were like wild weeds growing in his heart. When he couldn’t sleep in the middle of the night, he would think about it from time to time, and he couldn’t control himself.
There were too many loopholes in Xiao Jing ‘ai’s words.
If he could, he would have pretended that he couldn’t hear or understand anything, but whether it was Yang Shao or Xiao Baoxin’s expression at that time, it was hard to let go. The expression of being caught in bed, the guilty look that made him explode, he couldn’t take it seriously.
As expected, he had found out the truth.
It was not that pleasant.
However, he couldn’t make this matter clear. If it was too obvious, there would inevitably be estrangement between the two of them. Would he believe what she said?
No, Xiao Baoxin had always been intelligent, he would definitely be able to sense it. Especially her ability to hear other people’s thoughts. Could she hide it from her for a while, but could she hide it from her forever?
Moreover, the people in his previous life said that he didn’t have many years to live. Did that mean that he really didn’t have many years to live?
What would happen to Xiao Baoxin in the future?
He didn’t even have the time to be jealous. All he could do was plan for the future.
In the past, he had only thought that he was sick and weak, worrying for nothing. Now, it was a real hammer. One mouth and he was half beaten into the ground. He could not even ask when he would die. At least he was given a time limit so that he could make plans.
But he couldn’t ask.
Why do you ask? When will I die?
These days, other than being busy with government affairs, sometimes he really went into a dead end and couldn’t get out. He thought too much and had to do too much. It wasn’t entirely because Xiao Bao was overthinking. He just didn’t want to give her more pressure, so he kept everything in his heart.
“Don’t worry.” Xiao Baoxin blushed and his cheeks turned red.
She had won unfairly. She had said that she did not want to stick close to him and let him think that she was cheating with him because of her talent. However, she had this ability and could not help but want to use it.
Although her hands were not on his body and were leaning forward, her feet were hooked around his legs and she could hear his thoughts.
I heard from Second Mother’s heart that you died in prison in your previous life. The Crown Prince ascended the throne and killed many meritorious officials. I don’t know how you offended him, but he imprisoned you a few days after he ascended the throne. Not long after, news of ‘you’-the death of you in your previous life spread.”
What arrangements? Did he think too much?
Xiao Baoxin was glad that he had played a trick and heard his thoughts. Otherwise, he would not have known that he had so many twists and turns in his heart.
What use did she have this skill for? Under her eyes, the person beside her had such a huge fluctuation in his heart, but he actually didn’t notice it. He had been living on his own for so long.
It was a classic case of thinking too much, a common problem of smart people.
It didn’t matter if Xie Xian didn’t make it clear. She could choose.
He had already thought so much about it. If she still didn’t come clean, he would probably put on a show that was even more magnificent than her own.
The gains outweighed the losses.
“.. Really?” Xie Xian was very happy.
However, Xiao Baoxin probably wouldn’t be able to think of a happy point even if he took a dozen turns.
It had nothing to do with his death. Although he knew that he did not die of illness, he was indeed very happy. Now that the Crown Prince had fallen, he had made great contributions from the Dragon. He was below one person and above tens of thousands of people. He would not have to go to jail in his previous life and would not die.
But what made him the happiest was the hidden meaning in her words.
Listen to Xiao Jing ‘ai’s inner voice–
Everything Xiao Baoxin knew was from Xiao Jing ‘ai. He was not a reborn person like Xiao Jing’ ai.
Even if it was related to Yang Shao, that was in his previous life!
Xie Xian knew that he was narrow-minded and thought too much. Although being able to have Xiao Baoxin was already the greatest happiness in his life, and he was thankful, he was still happy to know that Xiao Baoxin did not have any real involvement with Yang Shao.
He was so happy that he looked like a fool.
This was the first time Xiao Baoxin had seen him smile so foolishly that even his little tongue was about to be seen. He could not help but laugh as well.
He thought to himself that he was indeed afraid of death.
When she heard that it wasn’t an illness, she couldn’t help but laugh.
Although the two of them were not on the same frequency, they were happy to the same place. The atmosphere suddenly became better.
“Of course it’s true. Don’t worry, you’ve been training with me recently. You walk circles every day. You haven’t been sick for a long time, right?”Xiao Baoxin advised him. “I heard from Mother that when I was pregnant with you, I might have some congenital deficiencies. After that, I pampered you, so you fell sick easily. If you exercise more and eat more, will your body be better?”
How could she say that ever since Xie Xian followed him around, he hadn’t been sick for a few months. The old grandmother of the Xie family and her mother-in-law were almost worshipping her-of course, there was also a big reason why she was pregnant.
Some said that she was blessed to have brought prosperity to Xie Xian and that he had made contributions in the circle. Madam Yuan was so anxious that she almost wanted him to kowtow and become her disciple and learn martial arts from her. He wished that his body would become strong all of a sudden, so that he could go up the mountain to fight the tiger and capture the dragon in the sea.
In short, after not seeing him for three days, her grandmother and mother could no longer sit still. They asked her if Xie Xian had been walking circles these days. No matter how busy the government was, they could not delay him. They were even more concerned than her.
The imperial court belonged to everyone, but their bodies belonged to their own people. They had to watch them closely.
Under Xie Xianguang’s announcement of a healthy recovery, even Mother Xie started to learn the set of boxing moves like the wind and practiced in her own courtyard every few days. If it wasn’t for the fact that she was so old and afraid of being exposed, looking at Mother Xie’s posture, she would have been practicing in winter and summer..
