564 Alliance (5)

“Pay me?” Xie Jingxing said indifferently, “The Shen family offered ten thousand taels of gold for your whereabouts, but I didn’t care. There’s a lot of money in the treasury of the Daliang Dynasty. What can you pay me with?”

Shen Miao gritted her teeth. “As long as you don’t ask me to marry you, everything is fine.”

Xie Jingxing raised his eyebrows at her and sighed. “So that’s what’s on your mind? Are you reminding me of the fact that you want to marry me? Women have to be reserved. It’s not good for you to be like this.”

Shen Miao looked away.

“Forget it.” Xie Jingxing said, “Saving someone is just a small matter to me. I won’t make things difficult for you. What I want is simple.” He stared at Shen Miao and said with a faint smile, “Writing poetry, playing the Guqin, making pastries and clothes for me. That’s all for now.”

Shen Miao was speechless.

She said, “Change to something else.”

“I only want these.” Xie Jingxing rejected Shen Miao. As if feeling that the ground was a little cold, he pulled Shen Miao up.

“I can’t send you back to the Shen mansion now. You’ve been missing for a total of three days. Rumors are spreading outside. If you go back now, people will inevitably suspect you.” Xie Jingxing said, “I’ll get someone to send you to the princess’s mansion. Auntie Rong will help you.”

Shen Miao was stunned. She looked at Xie Jingxing and asked, “Princess Rong Xin also knows your identity?”

Xie Jingxing shook his head. “In Ming Qi, you’re the only one who knows.”

Shen Miao fell silent. Xie Jingxing looked at Xie Changchao’s corpse on the ground, and a trace of disgust flashed across his eyes. He suddenly said, “However, in order to save you today, I killed someone and inevitably caused trouble. This all started because of you. From now on, we’re on the same boat. You’re my ally, understand?”
