Venomous Empress Reborn

980 Cold Moon (7)

She walked step by step. The moonlight was as cold as water, but it could not blow away the desolation in her heart.

The wine and food basket had already been placed in the pavilion. Ba Jiao said, “Madam, the fireworks have been bought.”

Shen Miao nodded.

Say it, say it out and you’ll be freed, Shen Miao thought to herself. No matter what Xie Jingxing thought of her in the future and what she had to face, she would take it. Not being understood or being treated like a freak was nothing compared to what she had gone through in her previous life.

Just as she was thinking, she heard a voice behind her. “Are you waiting for Prince Rui?”

She turned around and saw Pei Lang.

Pei Lang glanced at the things on the table in the pavilion and smiled. “I didn’t expect you to do such a thing.”

Shen Miao asked him, “Why are you out?”

“I’m not used to such an occasion.” Pei Lang said, “I can’t drink, so I planned to go back first. I didn’t expect to see you preparing these.” He said, “Are you planning to make up with Prince Rui?”

Shen Miao nodded.

“In the past, I used to think that there was probably no one that could make your heart soften. Now I know that there is someone and it turns out to be Prince Rui.” Pei Lang’s smile had an imperceptible sadness. When he looked at Shen Miao again, he was still calm. “Although it’s surprising, I’m not all that surprised.”

Shen Miao smiled.

At the same time in Bixiao Restaurant, Xie Jingxing glanced at Tie Yi and was about to get up and leave.

Ji Yushu tugged at the corner of his shirt. “You’re the birthday boy today. Why? Are you going to run away?”

“Let go.” Xie Jingxing glanced at him.

Ji Yushu let go obediently. “What exactly are you going to do? Why are you being so mysterious?”

Gao Yang said, “Why are you being such a busybody?”

Xie Jingxing glanced at the siblings who were talking to Madam Ye and couldn’t help but frown.

Shen Miao’s attitude towards this pair of siblings was really too strange. It was as if she had already abandoned her rationality and became a different person. The Ye siblings did not look all that harmless. It was precisely because the Black Feather Army couldn’t find out anything about this pair of siblings that he found them suspicious.

He suddenly thought of the letter Tie Yi stuffed into his sleeve.

That letter was written to him by Shen Miao.

She did not mention apologizing. She only said that at the birthday banquet, she had something to say to him in the pavilion in an alley not far from Bixiao Restaurant.

It was already the biggest concession Shen Miao could make. Xie Jingxing had always doted on Shen Miao and was very easy to be coaxed. His indifferent attitude was just a front he put up. At this moment, he felt happy inside.

In the pavilion, after Pei Lang finished talking to Shen Miao, he was about to leave. As soon as he walked down the stairs, he bumped into an eight or nine-year-old child. Pei Lang was caught off guard and fell. Ba Jiao and Hui Xiang were waiting on the other side for Xie Jingxing to come over. Shen Miao thought that the child might be one of the young masters in Bixiao Restaurant who came out to play. Seeing that Pei Lang was moaning in pain on the ground, she planned to go over and take a look.

Just as she walked up to Pei Lang, she saw the child lying on the ground. Shen Miao squatted down and was about to speak when the child suddenly looked up with murderous eyes!

Shen Miao was caught off guard and saw a silver dagger stabbing at her. At this moment, it was too late to dodge. She saw Pei Lang suddenly hug her and turn her over, protecting her under him!

Then, there was a groan of pain.

However, he did not let go no matter what. He protected Shen Miao extremely tightly, but the child did not care. He kicked Pei Lang away and turned the knife to stab at Shen Miao!

Xie Jingxing was walking over with Hui Xiang and Ba Jiao.

Hui Xiang said, “Madam has been waiting for you for a while. She’s afraid that you’ll still be angry, so she’s been waiting for you patiently. When you see Madam, you have to talk to her nicely.”

Xie Jingxing was expressionless, but a trace of a smile flashed across his eyes.

After walking around the alley, he saw the pavilion. Before he got close, there was a strong smell of blood.

Xie Jingxing stopped in his tracks.

Ba Jiao and Hui Xiang were also stunned.

The moonlight was as bright as a lantern, illuminating the ground. It was supposed to be a pleasant scenery, but now, it made people feel a chill run down their spines.

There were large patches of blood and familiar people.
