Chapter 231: Insidious Means
Xie Lingxiao held Shen Jingxuan's hand and pulled her out of the main hall, with the maid following closely behind them.
She hurried a few steps to the front of Xie Lingxiao and led the two of them to Chen Yuqian's yard and stood there.
"Your Highness, the young lady asked you to go alone, otherwise... otherwise..."
The maid hesitated, and when she thought about what to say next, she closed her eyes tightly.
"Otherwise I won't give you the things." The maid said through gritting her teeth.
Xie Lingxiao narrowed his eyebrows slightly: "Impossible, if he doesn't give it to me, I will kill her."
It's ridiculous that a person who is not presentable enough wants to blackmail him with this.
Shen Jingxuan raised her eyebrows slightly: "Ah Xiao, go in, I'll wait for you in the yard."
Now is not the time for fighting, so the old lady's coffin is placed in the main hall.
Although Xie Lingxiao didn't care much about it, he couldn't let himself be criticized.
When Xie Lingxiao heard Shen Jingxuan's words, although he knew the fact, he still hesitated.
After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Xuan'er, I'll be back soon."
If it was someone else's thing, he wouldn't care, but this was his mother's thing, so he had to get it no matter what.
Xie Lingxiao walked up to the room alone and knocked on the door. When he heard a voice from inside, he opened the door and walked in.
When the maid saw that he had entered the room, she slammed the door that Xie Lingxiao had left open.
She stood in front of the door, staring at Shen Jingxuan intently.
He looked so ferocious, as if he would tear her to pieces if she took a step forward.
Shen Jingxuan came and sat on the stone bench next to her, looking quietly into the distance and listening to the sounds in the room.
What she didn't expect was that, perhaps because the room was too soundproof or because neither of them spoke, she didn't hear any sound at all.
Xie Lingxiao came to the room, saw that it was empty, and slowly walked inside.
Even when he reached the innermost room, he still could not see Chen Yuqian.
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he was stopped by someone behind the bed curtains.
"Cousin, you're here." Chen Yuqian looked at the man in front of her with obsession through the bed curtain.
She couldn't remember how long it had been since she last saw Xie Lingxiao.
Xie Lingxiao turned sideways and looked away: "Throw the things out."
When Chen Yuqian fainted, Xie Lingxiao's mind was on Shen Jingxuan, because her crying disturbed Shen Jingxuan and her beautiful brows slightly frowned.
By the time he saw that Shen Jingxuan had improved slightly, Chen Yuqian had already fainted and was carried out.
"Cousin, I'm worried that it might be broken. Please come closer." Chen Yuqian said.
Although he was reluctant, Xie Lingxiao still walked towards the edge of the bed. He stopped three steps away from the bed.
Xie Lingxiao didn't even look at the bed curtain and urged, "Throw it out, I'll catch it."
It was a long time since the words were spoken, but Chen Yuqian's voice was not heard.
Xie Lingxiao's eyebrows gradually frowned, and he became more and more annoyed.
The more this happened, the more rapid his breathing became.
"Hurry up." Xie Lingxiao gently pulled the collar.
For some reason, he suddenly felt that the room was unusually hot.
At this moment, he not only felt dry mouth and tongue, but also seemed to have a fire in his body, burning more and more intensely.
Chen Yuqian did not answer him. Seeing Xie Lingxiao's appearance through the bed curtain, the corners of her lips gradually curled up.
"cousin... ..."
She called out to Xie Lingxiao in a tender voice, stood up, opened the bed curtain, and came to his side.
When Chen Yuqian's voice sounded, Xie Lingxiao's whole body tensed up, but it was like a bucket of cold water poured over him, which made him sober up a little.
Xie Lingxiao raised his hand and pinched Chen Yuqian's neck: "Where's the thing?"
He suppressed the discomfort and tightened the hand around his neck slightly.
"Oh..." Chen Yuqian slapped Xie Lingxiao's hands hard, making the sound with difficulty.
Xie Lingxiao continued to use force until Chen Yuqian's eyes rolled up slightly. He threw her to the ground as if his hands were stained with dirt.
"Take out the...things."
Xie Lingxiao glared at Chen Yuqian. Now he finally knew what Chen Yuqian was thinking.
He looked at the person in front of him who was having difficulty breathing, and he wished he could go up to her and break her neck immediately.
Seeing that Chen Yuqian still didn't say anything, Xie Lingxiao stepped forward and asked her, "Don't want to say it?"
A hand was placed on Chen Yuqian's neck again.
Chen Yuqian looked at the person in front of her with red eyes and a fierce look on his face, and her body trembled slightly.
She was also feeling extremely uncomfortable at this moment, simply because she had stayed in the room longer than Xie Lingxiao.
Chen Yuqian plucked up her courage and tried to wrap her arms around Xie Lingxiao's neck.
"Crack..." The sound of broken bones was heard.
Chen Yuqian wanted to scream, but a hand once again pinched her neck.
"If you want to die faster, just move around, or still choose not to say anything."
At this point, he could only endure the discomfort and get what he wanted.
Chen Yuqian was shaking with pain. She tried to open her mouth, but no sound came out.
Xie Lingxiao loosened his grip slightly, and her voice gradually became clear to him: "On... the bed."
Hearing her words, Xie Lingxiao threw her against the wall and quickly walked forward to search on the bed.
A round jade pendant under the pillow came into view. He held the pendant and walked out with difficulty.
With a loud "bang...", the door of the room was kicked open.
Shen Jingxuan turned her head suddenly and saw Xie Lingxiao staggering out.
She quickly came to Xie Lingxiao's side: "Ah Xiao, what's wrong with you?"
At this time, Xie Lingxiao's consciousness was not very clear. Hearing Shen Jingxuan's voice, he didn't care about anything else. He hugged Shen Jingxuan and disappeared in Chen Mansion in an instant.
Noticing something strange about Xie Lingxiao's body, Shen Jingxuan's eyes widened slightly.
Seeing Xie Lingxiao leading him out of the city, Shen Jingxuan hurriedly stopped him: "Ah Xiao, find a secret place."
Xie Lingxiao was stunned for a moment and walked towards the alley next to him.
As soon as they stepped into the alley, their figures disappeared in an instant.
They came to the space, and Shen Jingxuan put her hand on Xie Lingxiao's wrist.
When the slightly cool fingers touched his wrist, Xie Lingxiao felt extremely comfortable.
He shook off Shen Jingxuan's hand and couldn't wait to kiss her cherry lips.
Shen Jingxuan was shocked by Xie Lingxiao's domineering attitude.
"Axiao, calm down." Shen Jingxuan stopped him from going any further.
Seeing that Xie Lingxiao had no intention of stopping, Shen Jingxuan bit his lips lightly.
The pain came suddenly, and Xie Lingxiao was sober for a moment. When he saw clearly that the person in front of him was Shen Jingxuan, his heart slowly settled down.
"Xuan'er..." Xie Lingxiao murmured.
Shen Jingxuan hurriedly said: "Let me take your pulse."
She wanted to check Xie Lingxiao's body to see if the medicine had harmed him, and was worried that this would ruin the recuperation of the past few days.
But Xie Lingxiao couldn't stand it any longer: "Xuan'er, I feel uncomfortable."
Seeing Xie Lingxiao trying hard to endure the discomfort, Shen Jingxuan couldn't help but feel distressed.
She took advantage of the free time to check Xie Lingxiao's pulse, and just as she thought, all her efforts over the past few days were in vain.
But now Xie Lingxiao's body can no longer bear the torture of drugs, the only way is...
