Venomous Empress Reborn

Chapter 486 - 486 Prince Rui's Neighbor (5)



486 Prince Rui’s Neighbor (5)

Shen Miao looked at Luo Ling’s back as he left and watched quietly for a while. She was not a young girl who was ignorant of the world. Even if she had never experienced the intimacy and love between a man and a woman with Fu Xiuyi, she had been an empress for many decades after all. Luo Ling was a good person. It would be too selfish of her to drag such a good person into her life. The Luo family had treated her well. She could not bring herself to harm Luo Ling.

She turned around and returned to her room. After washing up, Jingzhe and Gu Yu left. Shen Miao sat at the table and spread out the item Luo Ling had given her.

It was a handkerchief. Coincidentally, it was actually a double-sided embroidery that was the most difficult to get now. Luo Ling must have spent a lot of money to buy this handkerchief. There was a white crane embroidered on it. It emitted a faint fragrance that was indeed a little soothing.

Shen Miao looked at it for a long time. The patterns on the handkerchief were obviously made by Liu Ying. Liu Ying’s craftsmanship was one of the best in the capital, and this was a rare double-sided embroidery. It seemed that Liu Ying was doing well. As Shen Miao looked at it, her mood improved.

She felt a little tired, so she took off her outer robe and only wore her inner clothes. She walked to the couch and sat down. Just as she was about to take off her inner clothes to rest, she heard a chuckle. “Wait.”

Shen Miao’s hand froze. When she turned around, her eyes were filled with anger. She looked at the person who had come uninvited outside the window and said word by word, “Xie, Jing, Xing.”

Xie Jingxing entered the house and closed the window like he was at home. This time, he was not wearing a mask. His handsome and beautiful face was exposed under the light, but Shen Miao only wanted to drag him out and kill him.

“In the entire world, you’re the only one who can call me by my pet name now.” Xie Jingxing pulled a chair over and sat down not far from Shen Miao’s bed. He smiled casually. “You’re the only one in the world who has this honor.”

Even while seated, he was still much taller than Shen Miao.

Shen Miao looked at him coldly. “Prince Rui, you seem to be free every day and have familiarized yourself with the road from Yanqing Alley to my house.”

“Simple.” Xie Jingxing rested his chin on his hand. “I’ve bought all the houses here in Yanqing Alley. The house next to yours is also my house. We’re neighbors, so it’s only right for me to come and say hello.”

Shen Miao gasped. Although Yanqing Alley was also close to Shen Miao’s house, there was still some distance. Xie Jingxing had bought all the mansions from Yanqing Alley to Shen Miao’s house… Didn’t that mean that more than half of the south of the city was his playground? The house next to Shen Miao’s house also belonged to Xie Jingxing. Even if Xie Jingxing was rich, he shouldn’t spend money like this. Did he bring the treasury of the Daliang Dynasty with him? Did Emperor Yong Le know that he was squandering money like dirt?

When she saw the lazy smile on Xie Jingxing’s face, Shen Miao was furious. Xie Jingxing was so shameless. Who would visit their neighbor in the middle of the night just to say hello? Why did he come uninvited? Was the royal family of the Daliang Dynasty so unruly?

“You don’t look very happy.” Xie Jingxing looked at her with interest. “If you have any difficulties, you can tell me. My identity as Prince Rui can do much more than you can imagine. For the sake of us being old friends, I don’t mind offering you some help.”

Shen Miao rolled her eyes at him. She was getting more and more confused about what Xie Jingxing was up to. Xie Jingxing’s words reminded her of what she said to Ji Yushu at the Exiled Immortal Pawnshop today. Shen Miao’s interest was suddenly aroused and she deliberately asked, “Xie Jingxing, what do you think of Concubine Fang of the Marquis of Lin’an?”
