Chapter 146: You're Too Soft-Hearted
There was a candle on the desk. The red candlelight made the little girl's face look red.
The smile in her eyes faded because of his proximity. He looked at him with some surprise.
"I took the jade pendant. The money will be brought to you tomorrow. β
"Then I'll thank the six princes in advance." Xia Qingtong smiled brightly, but took another step back.
Ming Yue took a step further: "Thank you for not having to. Seriously, it's me who should thank you. Isn't it? β
It was dark and quiet outside. His voice was low, and it rang in Xia Qingtong's ears like this, making her suddenly think of a sentence that she had heard in later generations to describe people's voices.
The ears are going to be pregnant.
Really.
"Except for silver. I don't know what other thank-you gift you want, Miss Xia San? β
He took another step forward, and behind her was a chair, and as soon as he approached, she sat down in the chair. He took the opportunity to put his hands on either side of the armrests of her chair.
"No need." Xia Qingtong fell back without a trace: "Six princes." It's not early, you see, can you go back and rest first? β
"You want to rest, but don't you think you're missing something?"
"What?"
The jade pendant was taken away by him, and she also said that she didn't want his thank you, so what else did she have to say.
Ming Yue stared at her for a long time, then finally straightened up, took out a piece of paper from his arms, and put it in front of Xia Qingtong. On it, she once drew a pattern of a badge.
She looked up at Ming Yue with a daze, not understanding how this manuscript could be with him. But it didn't take long to figure it out.
"Red Sakuraβ"
"It's not red cherry blossoms. It was given to me by your good brother-in-law. β
Xia Ruixiang? Where did he come from?
The manuscript she had recently drawn had indeed been burned by her, but she hadn't drawn it before. It's hard to guarantee that one or two won't flow out there.
"There's no way Sakura could give this manuscript to someone else. There's something wrong with your jade pavilion. β
Xia Qingtong stopped talking, she knew that her jade pavilion was indeed not clean. Not to mention the short time she has traveled over, the original owner used to be an impulsive and brainless person.
Even if someone really put their eyes here, she didn't know.
"Xia Ruixiang didn't say who gave it to her?" Xia Qingtong thought of something, and suddenly turned pale: "Could it be that he knows the secret here?" β
"Not really." Ming Yue's expression was very cold: "He actually doesn't know the function of this badge." But because you drew it, and it fell into his hands, he realized that this was a handle. β
Xia Ruixiang is actually not very smart, those careful and small calculations, if he wants to use people, it is okay.
However, this man is too stupid after all. In order to let Xia Yurou return, and also to make him have prejudices against Xia Qingtong.
He gave him this manuscript to the effect that Xia Qingtong was chattering every day, which was abnormal.
Ming Yue turned around and took the manuscript, kneaded it into a ball, and put it in his palm to exert a slight force. By the time it fell from his fingertips, the paper had become crumbs.
Xia Qingtong didn't expect Ming Yue to have such a ability, staring at his face for a while, but he couldn't react.
Ming Yue took out the handkerchief and wiped his hands clean, while looking at Xia Qingtong's gaze with a little disapproval.
"You're too soft-hearted."
It's one thing to be capable, it's another thing to be soft-hearted.
This jade pavilion is where she lives, but it is easy for people to come in and take her manuscripts.
Today it was handed over to Xia Ruixiang, if this manuscript falls outside. Let others see this badge -
When Ming Yue thought about it, his face turned a little colder: "If you can't make a decision." I can help you. β
Help? How can it help?
