Chapter 107 You... You Can't Help If You Think That Way
"So you want to use the investment in Jingzhou City to make the prince suffer and warn him?"
Pei Xingyuan became more serious and once again determined Mi Xiayao's purpose.
She nodded matter-of-factly.
"Where's that Honglin? What do you want to do with him?" He asked another question.
If the prince is what Mi Xiayao finds irritating, then Duan Honglin is the existence that Mi Xiayao hates the most.
"I've asked Song Qiao to handle it. Duan Honglin's matter has nothing to do with you," she said lightly, "Are you sure you have nothing else to tell me?"
When she said this, she had already stood up.
Pei Xingyuan looked up at her, "Yes..."
As he said that, the man raised his hand and put it on his shoulder. His face, which had been solemn and calm just now, immediately took on a hint of forbearance.
"..." She deserved to ask more questions.
Mi Xiayao went about her business and straightened out her skirt. She said casually: "Okay, I'll have someone go to the drugstore later to get some painkillers and have them delivered. A grown man like you is too fragile. It's been almost a month."
Yes, does the wound still hurt?"
This set of irony made Pei Xingyuan narrow his eyes dangerously.
The staring red phoenix eyes fell on Mi Xiayao, and she accepted the other person's gaze frankly.
He even raised his eyebrows provocatively, "Isn't it? Or are you being dishonest these days? On the surface, you are obeying His Majesty's grounding, but behind your back, you go out to do other things over the wall every day?"
Her meaningful question made the smile on Pei Xingyuan's lips fade a lot.
He should have made it clear to Mi Xiayao at the outing party, but who knew he would run into a killer sent by Miao Qi.
As for why Mi Xiayao knew a little bit of his plan, he actually thought about it from time to time later.
She is so difficult to control, you can even say...
It was Pei Xingyuan who had never seen through this woman.
"I originally wanted to go over the wall to find someone, but she lifted the ban one step ahead of me..."
He lingered on the last word for a long time, carefully observing the changes in Mi Xiayao's facial expressions the whole time.
Mi Xiayao glanced at him and chuckled, "Don't make it sound like the two of us were having an affair."
Speaking of this, Mi Xiayao thought of something, and she sat back again.
"Seriously, when will the relationship between us that has been misunderstood by the outside world be resolved?"
Pei Xingyuan's eyes followed her all the time when he heard this.
The man's expression darkened visibly.
Once Mi Xiayao lay down during this period, all she could think about was the meaningful words His Majesty said to them in the imperial study that night.
She didn't know what Pei Xingyuan would think, but just thinking about it made her feel uncomfortable all over.
After enduring it for several days, I finally managed to get out of the confinement, but Yuelailou was again harassed by a villain like Duan Honglin, and even threatened by the prince.
Isn’t this year’s fleeting year too unsatisfactory!?
Thinking of this, Mi Xiayao's brows furrowed even deeper.
He asked: "What do you think?"
she?
Mi Xiayao raised her head and met his gaze.
"I confess, I used to cooperate with you so that I could have more power to take revenge on Duan Honglin. Later, I discovered that I can still trample him under my feet without cooperating with you."
The woman's eyes are bright and penetrating, and even the words she speaks are particularly heartbreaking.
Pei Xingyuan's movement of playing with the tea cup in his hand stopped slightly.
"Mi Xiayao, your goal has been achieved, are you going to throw me away after using me?"
He propped his elbows on the desk and leaned forward to look at the woman in front of him.
This sentence perfectly touched Mi Xiayao's guilty conscience.
Her purpose in this life is very simple, everything goes in a selfish direction.
She doesn't want to think about great love.
I don't want to take on the so-called family responsibilities.
Nor do I want to become the head of the family and sacrifice all my energy for the so-called inheritance of the family line.
She wanted to be free and easy, but she never expected that an accident would happen in her rebirth.
For her, Pei Xingyuan was a person she had rarely interacted with in her previous life. Strictly speaking, they were strangers in her previous life.
She had achieved her goal, and now she wanted to be free... Naturally, Pei Xingyuan felt a little more guilty for her.
"I can reach cooperation with you in everything else, but the emperor said about granting marriage..."
"Who said His Majesty would grant marriage to you and me."
Pei Xingyuan's thin lips evoked a frivolous smile, and the indifference in Danfeng's eyes pierced deeply into Mi Xiayao's heart.
He interrupted her without hesitation, "You don't want to cooperate with me just because His Majesty wants to bring us together?"
He seemed unwilling to give up, so he said this again to test her inner thoughts.
"Yes, I don't want to get involved with anyone in a husband-wife relationship other than cooperation."
She speaks clearly and clearly, and the sentences she speaks are simple and easy to understand.
He finally stopped playing with the tea cup and held the tea cup tightly in his palm.
"So, you came here specifically to tell me that you don't want to have anything to do with me?"
He raised his cold gaze to meet Mi Xiayao.
Mi Xiayao frowned slightly.
No, she came here specially because he told her that day that he would come to see him on the first day after the ban was lifted.
When she came here now, she kept his appointment and asked a few questions about the investment in Jingzhou City.
The topic has come to this point in such an awkward manner... Such a development was something that even Mi Xiayao had not expected.
"You... if you think this way, then that's the only way it can be."
She stumbled and talked for a long time, finally grabbed her skirt, got up and ran away without looking back.
Looking at her panicked back, Pei Xingyuan tilted his head and let out an angry laugh.
He ran out of Pei's house in despair, and there was a little girl standing beside the carriage.
When she saw Mi Xiayao coming out, her round eyes suddenly became even rounder, and she waved her little hand.
"Mrs. Mi, Sister Song asked me to send a message to Madam. She first went to the Yamen with a debt letter. As expected, no one from the Yamen dared to send troops."
The little girl watched Mi Xiayao get on the carriage, but her little mouth was still babbling.
"Later, Sister Song took people directly to the door of Duan's house, and the person who came out was the old lady of the Duan family."
Mi Xiayao hated everyone in the Duan family deeply when she heard this content.
The complicated and overwhelmed thoughts about Pei Xingyuan just now were quickly forgotten.
She lifted the curtain and asked directly: "Just tell me the result."
"Oh," the little girl nodded, "Sister Song emptied everything from the Duan's house according to the value on the debt book, and then sat at the door of the Duan's house, calculating the value of each item, and now it's still
There is still a debt of 55.8 million yuan that has not been repaid."
