Xia Han, who was wearing a white prison uniform with his hair disheveled on the back of his head, had a gloomy coldness in his eyes.
"Of course I came to see how miserable the second son of the Xia family, who used to be so aloof, is now."
Xu Ying sneered at the corner of her mouth and said, "Now that I see you, it really relieves me."
Although this mentality seems a bit superficial, it actually makes her feel very comfortable.
Xu Ying's eyes moved around dimly, and she said slowly: "I have to say, this place is indeed very suitable for you."
Xia Han's eyes became more sinister and terrifying.
"Who is helping you behind the scenes?"
He stood up from the corner, dragging heavy chains on his hands and feet, walked slowly in the direction of Xu Ying, and asked one word at a time: "...or in other words, who instigated you?
!”
The situation in front of us is definitely not something that just Xu Ying can do!
He thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't figure out who could have such ability, so much so that his father even chose to give up on him...
Even if it is the palace's instruction, there must be someone behind it controlling all of this!
There was an iron fence between the two of them, and Xu Ying could clearly see the ferocious and uncontrollable look on his face. However, instead of being afraid, she felt relaxed.
"It's fair." She said calmly.
It was justice that avenged her.
It is justice that allows evildoers to be punished.
It's just that this justice is hard-won, and Ms. Xu helped her get it back step by step.
But the evil ghost in front of him will never have the chance to know the truth.
He didn't deserve to hear her mention Miss Xu's name.
Xia Han sneered after hearing this.
"It's okay if you don't want to say it..."
He looked closely at the woman who was so close but unable to control him, as if there was a fire burning in his heart.
"After I leave here, it will be easy to find out the ins and outs of this matter...Xu Ying, don't be too proud. Do you really think you have won? You just have better luck!"
He lost this time because he was too careless and decided that no one could be his opponent——
He will definitely not make the same mistake next time!
Listening to his self-deception, Xu Ying found it very funny.
"Does Mr. Xia know how the people outside are talking about you, the former Hanlin Lang?"
Xia Han's expression changed again and again when he heard this.
"A murderer who is worse than a beast, a man with a human face and a beast's heart, a hypocrite, an evil spirit in this world——"
"shut up!"
Xia Han suddenly shouted and interrupted Xu Ying's words. He stretched out his chained hand from the gap in the chain and tried to grab her.
Xu Ying took two steps back unhurriedly, looked at the man who was so crazy that he was beyond recognition, and said with a smile: "Young Master Xia cares so much about other people's opinions. If he really goes out, he will only dare to hide behind others."
Right? For a maggot like you who cannot show your true colors to others, this is the place where you should stay."
Xia Han's eyes turned red when he heard this, and his expression was like an evil ghost in hell.
"Do you really think I can't get out? My father is the chief minister of the court!"
There was sarcasm in Xu Ying's eyes.
Are you so anxious that you even say such straightforward words?
However, in the face of the emperor and the national destiny of Daqing, what can you do if you are the chief assistant?
And Xia Han didn't know that the evil deeds he had done were closely connected with the lightning strike at Fengtian Temple——
So there is still a trace of delusion in my heart.
She came here today just to vent her anger. She originally planned to tell him about this so that he could also taste the feeling of despair and waiting for death.
But now, she suddenly changed her mind.
It's better not to say anything.
Let's leave some hope for him, lest he think of committing suicide in despair and waste the punishment of Ling Chi prepared for him.
Xu Ying took one last look at the frantic man, turned around and left slowly.
I'm so angry that I feel sick if I continue to watch it.
"Xu Ying... just wait for me! Wait for me!"
"I will definitely reunite you sisters as soon as possible!"
Xia Han's almost crazy voice came from behind, and Xu Ying never looked back.
Step by step, she walked out of the dungeon and stepped out of the darkness.
Just at dusk, half of the sky was covered with the beautiful sunset glow, as if it was dyeing the entire world into a huge warm orange light.
Looking at this "light" with no visible edges, Xu Ying slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity.
Although it was dusk at this time, for her, it was a new beginning.
After saying goodbye to Ji Dong, she returned to Shang Yu Pavilion and had a talk with the female shopkeeper.
However, when he returned to the room where he lived in the backyard, as soon as he opened the door, he heard a voice coming from the dark room.
"Miss Xu."
This voice seemed a bit ethereal in the dark night.
Unprepared, Xu Ying was startled and almost screamed.
The reason why I was able to calm down in time was because this voice was familiar enough——
"Miss Xu?" she asked tentatively in a low voice.
Even though she had adapted to the light in front of her, she didn't look like there was anyone in the room.
And you can’t even hear breathing——
Could it be that she had been hallucinating because she had been longing to meet Miss Xu?
The next moment, the sound sounded again, dispelling her idea.
"It's me."
As the voice fell, the room suddenly became brighter.
Ah Zhu put the lampshade on the gauze lamp and put the fire stick back into her arms.
Looking at the masters and servants sitting and standing at the table, all dressed in black, Xu Yinglue reacted for a moment and hurriedly closed the door.
"I came uninvited, please bear with me." Xu Mingyi said.
"Miss Xu came to see me, and I was so happy that it was too late." Xu Ying walked over and said sincerely: "On the other hand, I have never said thank you to Miss Xu in person, which is really rude."
She knew that Miss Xu came to see her in this hidden way because she had no choice.
Xu Mingyi naturally understood her concerns.
The reason Xu Ying didn't go to see her was simply because she didn't want the Xia family to notice that she was involved in Xia Han's case.
Of course, there is another reason - Miss Xu doesn't know how to climb over the wall.
In the final analysis, both of them are out of comprehensive considerations, and neither of them is stupid. There is no need to waste more words and explanations for some words.
"Miss Xu, please sit down and talk." Seeing Xu Ying just standing, Xu Mingyi said with a smile.
It seems like she is the owner of this room.
Xu Ying hesitated for a moment before sitting down.
"I wonder when Miss Xu came here?"
"We just arrived not long ago."
"Can Miss Xu have dinner before she comes?" Xu Ying asked again, respectfully and politely, but also with a hint of concern.
Xu Mingyi nodded.
"The shrimp dumplings we ate at Qingfeng Tower." She smiled and said, "It's very delicious. Miss Xu can also try it when she has time in the future."
Delicious food is one of the most beautiful things in the world. Although it cannot speak, it can bring comfort to people's body and mind.
Sensing the kindness in the girl's words, Xu Ying responded with a smile: "Then I'll go try it tomorrow."
The two looked at each other and smiled, then Xu Mingyi asked: "I wonder what Miss Xu has planned in the future?"
