Chapter 481 - 481 Guessed It (6)



“Only a fool like you can believe such nonsense.” Gao Yang looked at him coldly. “Do you think everyone is a lovefool just like you?”

Ji Yushu patted his chest. “I don’t want to argue with you. I’m not talking to you anymore. Third Brother, what should we do now? Do you want me to help her? Or do you want me to create fake information to lie to her?”

“Since Shen Miao came to ask about these three things deliberately, she must know something. She can probably tell if you are lying or not. What is Miss Shen up to? Now, we are not even certain about what Shen Xin is going to do. And that Pei Lang, who was roped in by Shen Miao, has now become Fu Xiuyi’s trusted aide. Why is a little girl so complicated?” Gao Yang rambled on. When he realized that Xie Jingxing was not listening to him at all and was looking at the teapot on the table, he reminded him, “Xie… Your Highness, how should we deal with it this time?”

Xie Jingxing came back to his senses and thought for a moment. “Do nothing.”

“Why?” Without waiting for Gao Yang to ask, Ji Yushu was the first to speak. “Are we going to refuse doing business with her? Moreover, Miss Shen is very smart. If we really reject her like this, she will definitely suspect something. What if she finds out that there’s something wrong with our Exiled Immortal Pawnshop?”

Xie Jingxing smiled faintly. “It’s precisely because she’s smart that we must do nothing.”

“You mean…” Gao Yang frowned.

“She was just here to test the water.” Xie Jingxing narrowed his eyes and smiled. “What she said out there wasn’t directed to you, but to me.”

“Including the praise about your peerless beauty?” Ji Yushu’s focus was always on something else.

Xie Jingxing glanced at him coldly and said, “To me as well.”

In the carriage outside, Jingzhe and Gu Yu carefully looked at Shen Miao’s expression. Gu Yu said softly, “Miss, did Shopkeeper Ji say something wrong… Miss, you look a little angry.”

She was indeed very angry. Although Shen Miao looked calm on the surface, the coldness around her made the two maids feel unable to ignore it. She seemed to be sulking, but also angry. Jingzhe and Gu Yu were both very puzzled. They heard Shen Miao and Ji Yushu talking in the room just now. Although Ji Yushu’s words were not pleasant to the ear, Shen Miao was fine just now. Moreover, she was not someone who would be angered simply by words.

Jingzhe and Gu Yu did not understand. Shen Miao replied indifferently, “Nothing.” Her tone became even colder.

She clenched her fists in her sleeves, but she couldn’t help but feel frustrated. The Exiled Immortal Pawnshop closed down immediately after she left, and it reopened not long before she returned to the capital. How could there be such a coincidence in the world? Shen Miao thought carefully. When the Exiled Immortal Pawnshop closed, other than Shen Xin going to Spring City, something else happened at the same time. Xie Jingxing led the Xie army to war. As for the reopening of the Exiled Immortal Pawnshop… Other than her returning to the capital, it also happened at the time of the Ming Qi tribute and the arrival of Prince Rui.

The Shen family had nothing to do with the Exiled Immortal Pawnshop. No matter how Shen Miao thought about it, the closing and reopening of the shop were undoubtedly related to Xie Jingxing. She came to the Exiled Immortal Pawnshop today to test the water.

The result of the test was as she had expected. Ji Yushu and Xie Jingxing were probably old friends, and Gao Yang was the same. After connecting the dots, Shen Miao was certain that Ji Yushu and Gao Yang were both people from the Daliang Dynasty who hid their identities in the capital. What was more infuriating was that when she did business with Ji Yushu back then, she told him her entire plan about bringing down Prince Yu. Xie Jingxing probably already knew everything. She thought that she had the upper hand and had Ji Yushu under her control, but in the end, Xie Jingxing was still far ahead of her. At the thought of Xie Jingxing playing with her like a fool, Shen Miao wanted to tear him apart.

Seeing Shen Miao’s uncomfortable expression, Jingzhe thought that it was too stuffy in the carriage and lifted the curtain to bring in some air. Shen Miao glanced outside and saw a familiar face in the crowd on the street.

Jingzhe lowered the curtain, but Shen Miao stopped her. She lifted the curtain and looked at the place, but the person in the crowd was no longer there.

“Miss?” Jingzhe and Gu Yu were shocked by Shen Miao’s unusual behavior today. Shen Miao looked outside the carriage carefully for a while before lowering the curtain and saying, “Nothing. Let’s continue.”

However, her brows were tightly furrowed, and her expression was even more solemn than before.
