The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day-Chapter 219 - 101 Going to Yuzhou (22) Only, Gu Xingchuan!_4
Chapter 219: Chapter 101 Going to Yuzhou (22) Only, Gu Xingchuan!_4
"No." Xiao Jinxing said.
He had also just gotten out of bed.
"Perfect timing, how about we have breakfast together?" Bai Mowan invited.
Xiao Jinxing chuckled lightly, his smile containing a hint of indulgence, "You’re eating in bed, how can we eat together?"
"Then, Brother Xiao, how about you feed me?" Bai Mowan said with a beaming smile.
That moment seemed to remind Xiao Jinxing of the days they spent together in the Imperial Palace.
Xiao Jinxing nodded in agreement.
He simply couldn’t refuse.
Nor was it possible for him to refuse.
He walked over to Bai Mowan’s bedside.
Bai Mowan had already put on white pajamas and, with the support of the Maid, sat up. A cushion propped up her lower back for comfort, careful not to disturb her wounds.
"You may leave us now." Bai Mowan beckoned.
The Maid respectfully left.
Now, only Xiao Jinxing and Bai Mowan remained in the room.
Bai Mowan was currently sipping fish soup.
Xiao Jinxing used a spoon to gently cool the soup before feeding it to her.
"Brother Xiao, have you captured Chen Hezhi and his son?" Bai Mowan asked.
She had vaguely overheard the conversation outside the door.
"Yes, they are detained at Pang Mansion, I will see them later." Xiao Jinxing spoke, "I just wanted to tell you."
"Good that they’ve been caught." Bai Mowan nodded, "What do you plan to do with them, Brother Xiao?"
"Kill them." Xiao Jinxing stated bluntly.
Bai Mowan’s eyes tightened, "Aren’t you planning to bring them back to intimidate Xiao Jinsen?! Even though the Emperor certainly won’t immediately believe Chen Hezhi and his son, whatever they say to the Emperor will surely be taken into consideration. If we expose Xiao Jinsen further, the Emperor will start to have doubts about him."
"The premise is that we can bring them back," Xiao Jinxing explained, being very patient with Bai Mowan, "If we can think of this, don’t you think Xiao Jinsen could as well?"
Bai Mowan was taken aback.
In that instant, she felt enlightened.
"Since Xiao Jinsen won’t let Chen Hezhi and his son leave Yuzhou City for court trial, he will try to have someone assassinate them. Bringing them back with us to court would just increase our own danger."
"Brother Xiao, you’ve thought through this more thoroughly." Bai Mowan sincerely exclaimed.
In her past life, Xiao Jinxing was even more strategic and cunning than Xiao Jinsen, yet he died because of her under Xiao Jinsen’s schemes.
Even now, she held onto that regret.
"So, I will directly kill Chen Hezhi and his son, and I will also bring the news back to court, to put Xiao Jinsen’s mind at ease," Xiao Jinxing said.
"Brother Xiao, I want to personally kill Chen Hezhi and his son," Bai Mowan requested.
Since it was decided that these two were to be killed.
She wanted to be the one to do the deed herself.
Xiao Jinxing frowned slightly.
"I have an irreconcilable feud with them!" Bai Mowan uttered each word forcefully, grinding her teeth with anger!
Seeing how resolute Bai Mowan was, Xiao Jinxing did not ask further, "All right."
He easily acquiesced to Bai Mowan’s request.
"Brother Xiao," Bai Mowan then changed the subject, "Wan’er has something she wants to ask you."
"Go ahead."
"How did your legs get better?" Bai Mowan asked.
Having lived through a past life, she naturally knew that his disability was real, not feigned.
And in her memory, it wasn’t supposed to be cured for several more years.
Certainly not now.
Xiao Jinxing didn’t hide it from Bai Mowan, saying, "Ye Qichi treated them."
"Ye Qichi?" Bai Mowan was even more astonished.
When Ye Qichi treated her last night, she was already filled with doubts.
Yet last night, the pain was so severe she hardly could speak much.
After resting today, there were too many puzzling matters she wanted to understand.
"Indeed, Ye Qichi has changed a lot," Xiao Jinxing said, but then suddenly swallowed the words that reached his lips.
He chose not to say "after consummating our marriage."
He didn’t want Bai Mowan to know.
At least, not now.
Maybe later he would tell her about his moment of infidelity towards her.
But that was an accident.
There would be no second time.
He said, "It’s as if he has changed into someone else, a transformation that happened overnight."
"Really?" Bai Mowan frowned.
Indeed, she had also noticed a significant change in Ye Qichi.
In the last life, she had never made contact with him, but rumors suggested that Ye Qichi was rather ordinary, even somewhat foolish.
Such a transformation in this life.
Could it be... that he was also reborn, just like her?
Because of the rebirth, he knew much that others didn’t.
That’s why he could change so completely!
Yet, Ye Qichi’s transformation was obviously even more profound than her own...
Bai Mowan didn’t quite figure it out and didn’t voice her suspicions either.
"In any case, we can’t completely regard Ye Qichi as the same person as before," Xiao Jinxing concluded.
He didn’t know who Ye Qichi really was.
At least for now, Ye Qichi hadn’t harmed him and had even been helping him, so Xiao Jinxing was willing to let Ye Qichi stay by his side for the time being.
"Brother Xiao, have you changed your opinion of Ye Qichi?" Bai Mowan asked.
She knew in her heart that Xiao Jinxing was fond of her.
Otherwise, why would he have died for her in the last life?
But sometimes, women feel things more keenly.
And they long to hear affirmative answers from his own mouth.
"No," Xiao Jinxing stated definitively, "We made an agreement between us. We will divorce after a year."
Bai Mowan stared intently at Xiao Jinxing.
Her joy was unmistakable.
Her cheeks flushed, she said, "Then, after a year, may I marry you, Brother Xiao?"
Bai Mowan was born into a family of military nobility.
Though she had the shyness characteristic of traditional women,
she was not bound by rigid modesty.
Reborn, she approached relationships far more boldly than most women.
