C22 (1/2)
Midnight.
When Xie Qi entered the Phoenix Cry Xuan, he had already taken a bath and changed his clothes. After the stench of blood had faded from his body, he seemed to have returned to the carefree noble young master who only knew how to admire flowers and battle grasses.
However, he had not fallen asleep yet. Leaning against the bed with a cup of wine in hand, he heard the attendant outside greeting the Fifth Young Master and drank the entire cup of wine.
”Elder brother.”
Xie Qi dismissed all the attendant s around him and went in alone. He clasped his hands together and went straight to the point: ”I would like to ask Big Brother to help me kill a person.”
”What did you say?”
The youth who was originally leaning against the soft couch stood up, his eyes burning as he looked at his cousin in front of him.
Everyone in the Xie's Mansion said that the Fifth Young Master had an extremely good disposition. If his body was slightly better, in the future, he would definitely become a renowned sage when he cultivates both internally and externally.
Xie Qi's expression remained normal as he continued, ”I asked my elder brother to kill the scoundrel who kidnapped Miss Wen. If he doesn't die, I will never be able to sleep or eat in peace.”
Xie Heng only said the word ”good”.
Others might not know, but Xie Heng was very clear that his younger cousin's greatest regret was that Xie Qi did not even dare to play the role of a rabbit in the kitchen.
Xie Heng didn't know how to explain it to him. Your Miss Wen had long pushed the criminal down the cliff by himself.
But one thing was certain, it would not be easy.
This foolish brother thought that Miss Wen was just a weak girl who knew how to cry.
attendant hurriedly rushed over, ”Third Young Master is back.”
Following which, Xie Xuan walked in carrying a grey bag. His entire body was filled with cold and he was covered in a lot of blood. He was wearing light blue clothes and this blood stain was clearly heavier than when he came back.
In the nearly hundred years that the Xie Family had been at the Changping County Residence, there had not been so many people injured in a single day. Fortunately, the night was dense and most of the people below had already gone to bed.
”Third Brother, you're injured?”
Xie Qi was shocked, he extended his hand to check Xie Xuan's pulse.
”It's okay, it's not my blood.” Xie Xuan did not let him check his pulse.
Xie Heng said: ”Tonight, it is raining, and thunder and lightning are striking non-stop. Miss Wen was just frightened, if you were not in the courtyard, she would not be able to sleep.”
”I'll go back first.”
