Shen Miao mocked, “Are you complaining that I didn’t invite you in from the front door in the past?”

“Smart.” Xie Jingxing drank the tea.

“Because you came uninvited everytime.” Shen Miao gritted her teeth.

Xie Jingxing smiled at her. “Madam treats me very well today, and so does Cousin Tan.”

Shen Miao rolled her eyes. That was because they had never seen Xie Jingxing’s cruel side. If they did, they would not be so nice to him.

She asked, “What do you have to say to me?”

“Regarding what you asked me to investigate last time, I found something,” Xie Jingxing said.

Shen Miao had been so busy these days that she forgot what she asked Xie Jingxing to investigate. She asked in confusion, “What is it?”

Xie Jingxing’s eyes flashed. “Pei Lang’s news.”

Shen Miao was enlightened. Thinking that there had been no news of Pei Lang for a long time, she became really anxious and asked, “What did you find out? Did something happen to him?”

“Are you very worried about him?” Xie Jingxing raised an eyebrow.

“He works for me.” Shen Miao frowned.

“Alright.” Xie Jingxing shrugged. “He’s not doing well now. Fu Xiuyi seems to have discovered his identity and locked him up in the dungeon of Prince Ding’s mansion. He tortured him to force him to tell the truth.”

Shen Miao’s heart tightened slightly. She said, “Is he still alive?”

“Fu Xiuyi didn’t get the answer he wanted. He won’t let him die so easily,” Xie Jingxing said. After saying that, he stared at Shen Miao and said, “You don’t seem worried that he will betray you at all?”

“He won’t,” Shen Miao replied.

Xie Jingxing frowned slightly.

Shen Miao thought that although Pei Lang was sometimes too rational, his loyalty was not questionable. In her previous life, Pei Lang had been loyal to Fu Xiuyi from the beginning to end. Later, Prince Zhou and the others also wanted to poach him from Fu Xiuyi. At that time, Prince Zhou and the others had the upper hand and could give Pei Lang more than Fu Xiuyi, but Pei Lang had never wavered.

Pei Lang was a very principled person. Sticking to his principle was above everything else in his heart. In her previous life, he helped Fu Xiuyi secure the throne and did his best to make use of everyone Fu Xiuyi could use, including Shen Miao. Later on, in order to save Fu Ming and Wanyu, Shen Miao knelt down and begged Pei Lang for help, but Pei Lang was unmoved. He even watched the Shen family fall to their demise. Shen Miao couldn’t think of a second person who was as loyal as Pei Lang.

From the beginning, Fu Xiuyi had been annoyed with her. After they got married, he was mostly cold to Shen Miao. Apart from the occasional concerned greetings to fulfill his responsibility as a husband, most of the time, Shen Miao lived alone in Prince Ding’s mansion. Shen Miao wanted to please Fu Xiuyi and knew that Pei Lang was the person Fu Xiuyi valued the most. She asked Pei Lang to teach her, hoping to make Fu Xiuyi look at her in a different light.

Pei Lang taught her patiently and never showed annoyance. It was all thanks to him that she knew the situation of Ming Qi very well.

It could be said that Pei Lang was her teacher in both of her lives.

Therefore, Shen Miao did not suspect that Pei Lang would betray her.

“Fu Xiuyi is an expert when it comes to torturing people.” Shen Miao revealed a rare trace of anxiety. “Especially for people who betray him. Once he finds such a person, he will never trust him and will kill him without mercy. In order to get an answer, Fu Xiuyi might keep his life for now, but that doesn’t mean he won’t eventually kill him. If he’s chopped into pieces…” Shen Miao shuddered.

Shen Miao had seen with her own eyes how Fu Xiuyi treated people who betrayed him. She had also seen with her own eyes what kind of a place the dungeon was.

From that moment onward, apart from love, she also felt dread and fear towards Fu Xiuyi.

After all, it was really difficult not to feel a chill run down the spine to witness such a cruel side to a seemingly amiable person

Xie Jingxing’s eyes darkened. “Why do you know so well how Fu Xiuyi treats traitors?”

If it were in the past, Shen Miao would have noticed that she said something she shouldn’t. However, at this moment, she was hung up on trying to save Pei Lang, so she couldn’t care less. She thought for a moment and looked at Xie Jingxing. “You have a way to save him, right?”

Xie Jingxing put the cup down and said, “Why should I save him?”

Shen Miao looked at him. His gaze was sharp and firm, making people tremble.

“Because there’s no reason to stand by and do nothing.”
