Venomous Empress Reborn

Chapter 677 - 677 Murky Waters (4)



677 Murky Waters (4)

Yes, Xie Jingxing was right. Chen Ruoqiu, Shen Wan, and Chang Zaiqing were just the chess pieces Shen Miao used to corner her real enemy.

Shen Miao had never forgotten her real enemy, the most terrifying enemy and the enemy she hated the most, Fu Xiuyi. Shen Wan had already got involved with Fu Xiuyi. Now that Shen Yue was found to have become Huangfu Hao’s concubine, and Shen Yue was Shen Wan’s daughter, it made people wonder if Huangfu Hao and Fu Xiuyi were also plotting something in secret..

Emperor Wen Hui was paranoid, and he would definitely send people to investigate. If Huangfu Hao and Fu Xiuyi really had nothing to do with each other, he would naturally not be able to find anything. Unfortunately, the two of them had an intention of forming an alliance. If Emperor Wen Hui investigated seriously, it was very likely that he would find something interesting. At this critical moment, Fu Xiuyi was not having a good time. His path to the throne would not be so smooth anymore.

She thought that she had done it meticulously and secretly, but she did not expect the purple-clothed young man in front of her to see through it at a glance.

She wanted to break free from Xie Jingxing, but he held her arm with one hand and the back of her head with the other. Shen Miao was almost lying on Xie Jingxing’s body. As she breathed, she could hear a heart beating violently, but she did not know if it was hers or his.

If someone came in from outside at this moment, Shen Miao would not be able to explain herself. However, Xie Jingxing was a frivolous person and did not feel that there was anything wrong with him doing this.

Shen Miao suddenly smiled and said slowly, “Getting burnt by the fire?”

Xie Jingxing stared at her calmly.

“I’ve already caught the fire” Shen Miao’s voice was indescribably cold and heavy. She said, “Prince Rui, do you think I have a way out?”

She had never had a way out. Without these blood feuds, without Wanyu and Fu Ming, without her rebirth for revenge, Shen Xin’s unparalleled achievements would one day lead to the death of the first branch of the Shen family. In order to protect the Shen family, she would eventually be enemies with Fu Xiuyi.

“Of course there’s a way out,” the young man suddenly said.

Shen Miao’s fingers that were grabbing his sleeve trembled slightly.

His side profile was peerlessly handsome, and his eyes were dark and beautiful, making one unable to help but immerse in it. His long eyelashes gave off a warmth under the sunlight coming through the curtain. He said indifferently, “With me around, the fire won’t catch you. If you’re afraid, you can hide in my arms.”

His voice was as mellow as wine and drifted into Shen Miao’s ears.

“I’ll fight a way out for you.”

Shen Miao looked at him. Even if he was frivolous with his words and actions, he always gave people the illusion that he was a man of his word.

But why did she suddenly feel like crying?

If someone had said to her in her previous life, “Hide in my arms and I’ll fight a way out for you.” Would she still end up hanging herself to death? Would her children still be alive and happy? It didn’t matter if Xie Jingxing meant it or not. At this moment, Shen Miao felt touched.

It was as if butterflies were about to fly out of her heart.

Xie Jingxing suddenly stopped smiling and looked at Shen Miao seriously. He narrowed his eyes and whispered into Shen Miao’s ear, “However, why is your heartbeat suddenly so rapid and loud?”
