Shanshan glanced at Xie Yujiao and said, "It's not that simple."

If Xie Yao was so easy to kill, she would have killed her thousands of times. Xie Yao invited her, but Xiao Ji would never let Xie Yao meet her alone.

I don’t know how many people will be around me.

But... she is not afraid.

Shanshan raised the corners of her lips slightly and said, "You don't understand."

"She'll beg me."

Xie Yujiao really didn't understand. Although Shanshan saved her, there were many things that Shanshan didn't tell her.

She couldn't imagine why Xie Yao would ask Shanshan for help.

But a sharp light flashed in Xie Yujiao's eyes, and she spoke very decisively, "But Xie Yao is vicious. She was the one who plotted for me to marry into the Song family and brought me to this point..."

"What does it have to do with me?" Shanshan asked back.

Xie Yujiao was stunned.

Shanshan said, "I only cooperated with you to deal with Xie Yao. Now she has come to me personally..."

Shanshan looked at Xie Yujiao, "What's the value?"

Xie Yujiao was completely stunned.

Shan Shan scoffed, threw the letter over the wall, and said loudly, "Tell her to wait for me tomorrow at noon at the place where we first met."

The next day.

Xie Yao arrived at the appointment as scheduled. She had been sitting in the box for a cup of tea when she heard rustling sounds inside and outside the room.

Xie Yao was calm and composed, knowing in her heart: Shanshan is here.

The rustling sound lasted for a long time, and Xie Yao did not make any other movements before the door of the box was pushed open.

Shanshan walked in, frowning slightly, "Aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"

Xie Yao turned to look at her, her eyebrows raised slightly, "Can you?"

"Hmph." Shanshan snorted coldly, a fierce light flashing in her sharp eyes, "Do you think I dare not?"

"It's not that I don't dare, it's that there's no need." Xie Yao said, "You're not a fool who's alone. You should know what will happen to you and your people if you kill me."

A fierce look flashed in Shanshan's eyes, "Are you threatening me?"

She hates being threatened the most in her life!

"This is a simple numerology problem." Xie Yao looked at Shanshan with a calm gaze. "You've been on the run for the past few months, so perhaps you didn't get some news in time."

"Do you know about the Shu Earth Dragon's resurgence some time ago?"

Xie Yao has learned from Si Bei that Shanshan is from Shu.

Shanshan was stunned for a moment, then said disdainfully, "So what?" Her tribe was good at controlling poison, and insects were often more sensitive to natural disasters like this.

She believed that the tribe would not suffer heavy losses from such a disaster.

Xie Yao said: "No one from your tribe was hurt."

Shanshan's smile was filled with satisfaction and pride; this was the strength of her tribe.

Xie Yao continued, "This time the Earth Dragon's resurgence was predicted in advance, and before the disaster struck, Si Bei sent a message to your tribe to take shelter."

Shanshan frowned.

Then he sneered disdainfully, "You don't think you can move me by saying this, do you? How can a dignified Crown Princess be so naive?"

Shanshan raised her chin slightly and said proudly, "Even without you, my tribe will be fine!"

Xie Yao didn't show any drastic emotional fluctuations at this remark. She simply said, "Whether your tribe has such ability or not, as long as His Highness knows the existence of this village, he will not let anything happen to it."

"Because the people in the village are all citizens of Daxia."

Shanshan was unhappy. "What exactly do you want to say? If that's all you want to say..."

"I have only one purpose." Xie Yao looked at her, "You know."

Shanshan smiled.

She picked up the teacup on the table and started playing with it, her bright smile full of confidence.

She knew that Xie Yao would beg her.

This was known from the moment she was discovered by Si Bei, but he deliberately spared her life.

"I know." Her voice was nonchalant. "Why? Do you agree to let me marry Xiao Ji now?"

Xie Yao shook her head.

Shanshan's smile faded, and her eyes were unfriendly. "Are you kidding me?"

"Except for this request." Xie Yao was not afraid at all.

Shanshan frowned, "That's the only request."

"Even if Your Highness and I are in tune with each other, I will never look at you again in this life?" Xie Yao asked.

Shanshan sneered, "This is my business, you don't need to worry about it."

"In the future, you will find that he and I are a perfect match. Only I can save him, and falling in love with me is his destiny."

"As for you, you are just a despicable thief who briefly enjoyed the happiness that should have belonged to me."

very confident.

Xie Yao looked at Shanshan and said, "It must be a poisonous insect."

Shanshan pursed her lips, her expression slightly stiff, and looked at Xie Yao with vigilance and suspicion in her eyes, as if questioning how she knew.

Even though Shanshan was only stiff for a moment, Xie Yao got a positive answer in her heart.

"Since you mentioned fate, does that mean there is a kind of poisonous insect that can save His Highness, but once the insect enters his body, he will... fall in love with you?" Xie Yao guessed.

"Yes." Shanshan raised the corner of her lips, "So, do you still want to save Xiao Ji?"

Xie Yao laughed, "You are lying to me."

Shan Shan: “???”

"If it were really that simple, why would you go to all that trouble? You could just trick him into giving the poisonous insect to His Highness as an antidote."

"So, there must be other restrictions." Xie Yao said firmly.

Xie Yao's eyes were clear and bright, as if she had seen through everything.

Shanshan's expression changed in an instant, but Xie Yao caught it accurately. The corners of her lips curled up, "I was right."

Shanshan laughed angrily.

She was quite desperate and said, "Well, even if you are right about everything, so what?"

"That's my condition. If you have the guts, kill me." She said confidently, "No one else in this world can save Xiao Ji except me."

"If you kill me, I will think that he died for me."

Shanshan grinned, looking at Xie Yao with eyes full of provocation, "Do you dare?"

"Xie Yao." Shan Shan said confidently, "Si Bei can kill me, but he repeatedly lets me go... Don't you understand what Xiao Ji means?"

He said he wanted to kill her, but in the end he let her go?

No matter how important a woman is, can she be more important than life?

Who wants to die if he can live?

Xie Yao was silent for a moment, then said, "You may not believe me, but letting you go is my intention."

Shanshan wanted to laugh, but when she saw Xie Yao's expression, she couldn't.

Her sixth sense told her... Xie Yao might be telling the truth, but...

Shan Shan stared at Xie Yao with sinister eyes. Looking at her stunning face, she could no longer suppress the jealousy in her heart. "Are you here to show off to me?"

"Xie Yao, does Xiao Ji know that you are so scheming and deep-minded?"

Xie Yao: “…” His defense was broken.

She pursed her lips and said nothing, but answered in her heart, "I'm afraid His Highness really knows about this matter..."

Even if she had disguised herself in front of His Highness at first, His Highness should have seen through her disguise long ago.

The corners of her lips curled up high, as if she had thought of something very interesting. She looked at Xie Yao and said, "If you want me to save Xiao Ji, then go and die."

"As long as you die, I will be willing to save Xiao Ji and I don't have to marry him."

"Only one of you and him can survive. The choice is yours. Xie Yao, what will you choose?"

Shanshan was in a very good mood and took a sip of tea, waiting for Xie Yao's answer leisurely.

No matter what choice Xie Yao makes, she is doomed to lose!

Xie Yao chose to live on her own, which just happened to allow Xiao Ji to see clearly how selfish a woman she was.

Xie Yao chose Xiao Ji to live, which was exactly what she wanted.

"Xie Yao, Xiao Ji is willing to sacrifice his life for you, what about you?"

"You die? Or...Xiao Ji dies?"
