- This person is sometimes annoying, and sometimes very gentle.
Chat as they lie in the same bed, how did she come up with this idea? Xie Xuanchen closed his eyes and let out a lazy “um”.
“How did you know that I was locked up today?”
This was way too simple. Usually whenever Xie Xuanchen opened his eyes, Mu Mingtang would be by his side. Even if she wasn’t, the moment he moved, Mu Mingtang would run over almost instantly.
Of course, he couldn’t say it out loud, but it seems that he felt very happy about it. Xie Xuanchen put on a plain tone and said: “When I woke up, the maid outside was extremely flustered, and the head maid also dodged my question to confuse me. I guessed that they were hiding something from me, so I forced them to speak up.”
“With just a brief glimpse, you could already notice that something was wrong, your senses are so sharp.” Mu Mingtang said in awe. She didn’t doubt Xie Xuanchen’s words, and wholeheartedly admired Xie Xuanchen’s sharp observation skills and fast reasoning ability. After Mu Mingtang sighed, he asked again: “Then how did you know that I was at the temple? If they hadn’t taken me there, I didn’t know that there was such a place in the manor.”
“I just have to ask them.” Xie Xuanchen didn’t think much about it, as if he was talking about the good weather today. “I found a sharp weapon and took advantage of it, I told the imperial servants that if they didn’t tell me, I would kill them, so they blurted everything.”
Mu Mingtang was silent. She didn’t think this was a casual question, presumably those maids who were threatened by Xie Xuanchen by the throat too, wouldn’t not think that it was a casual question.
Xie Xuanchen talked for a while, and was reminded of a question: “They took you away, what did they ask you?”
“Nothing, they just asked me when did you wake up and how the lock was opened.”
After Mu Mingtang finished speaking, she stayed quiet for a long time, and quietly added: “I didn’t say anything.”
“I know.” Xie Xuanchen exhaled, and there seemed to be a hint of self-mocking in his tone. “You didn’t need to hold on and say that you didn’t know anything, these people are here for me, it has nothing to do with you, you can say whatever you want. I was unconscious so they couldn’t interrogate me, so they looked for you. I’ll accept the consequences of my own wrong doings. I’m weak if I get a woman involved.”
Xie Xuanchen’s tone sounded very bad. Mu Mingtang didn’t know what he was thinking about, so she comforted him softly: “Actually, it’s okay. The Sun official is fierce, but in fact she just wanted to scare me, so that I’ll give in to her. Those needles and the bowl of medicine, they won’t dare to really use it on me.”
Xie Xuanchen chuckled softly, and said sarcastically: “
