Quick Transmigration Sweet Story, The White Moonlight Rescue Plan
Chapter 260 The Dark Moonlight in My Heart (3)
"My lord, the assassin we brought back has confessed. This is his written statement," Rong Qing said respectfully, presenting the statement with both hands. However, he received no response from Shen She for a long time. Rong Qing couldn't help but look up at Shen She, who was sitting at the table. He saw that the man's brows were furrowed, and his gaze was fixed on the table, as if he was deep in thought.
Rong Qing was puzzled; he had never seen Shen She lose focus while handling a case. This case seemed to have something special about it, attracting Shen She's attention. Driven by curiosity, Rong Qing couldn't help but ask, "Sir, is there a problem?"
Shen She was startled awake by Rong Qing's call and came to his senses. His face was gloomy, and a hint of panic flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure. He gently shook his head to indicate that he was alright.
Just then, a commotion arose outside the door. "Your Highness, the Lord is handling official business and is unable to see you," Mo Feng's voice was clearly audible.
Xiao Xiao stood at the courtyard gate, a smile on her face. She explained softly, "I just wanted to come in and deliver some pastries; I won't disturb you from your work."
However, Mo Feng remained unmoved and coldly refused, saying, "I'm sorry, Your Highness, please don't make things difficult for me."
Xiao Xiao had always been a domineering and arrogant person in the palace. Now that someone dared to openly embarrass her, Ru Yan should have been the first to jump out and scold the other party. However, after being terrified by Shen She a few days ago, she no longer dared to be arrogant and domineering. She could only hold Xiao Xiao's sleeve tightly and whisper to persuade her, "Your Highness, it's already very late. Lord Shen has probably already eaten dinner. Let's go back to the palace to rest as soon as possible!"
However, Xiao Xiao was unwilling to give up this rare opportunity to get close to Shen She. She pushed Ru Yan aside, then stared intently at the tightly closed door and shouted, "Shen She! Open the door for me!"
The room was brightly lit, and there was a figure in front of the window who had obviously heard the noise outside, but he showed no intention of opening the door.
Seeing this, Xiao Xiao became even angrier and continued to shout into the room, "Didn't you keep saying that we're in the same boat now? What, are you going to back out now? Are you even a man? You're so cowardly and don't keep your word. What kind of hero are you!"
Xiao Xiao's words became increasingly harsh and offensive, finally pushing Mo Feng to his breaking point. Just as he was about to explode, the person inside suddenly opened the door.
Xiao Xiao finally met Shen She, whom she hadn't seen for many days.
Shen She stared at the woman standing at the courtyard gate. She was dressed in a bright yellow palace gown, radiant and elegant. A smug smile spread across her face, and her eyes revealed a hint of cunning and mischief, as if she were silently showing off her victory, like a cat that had just stolen some cream.
Shen She's lips curled into a faint smile as he addressed the woman at the courtyard gate, "Your Highness, it is getting late. I have some matters to attend to and cannot accompany you. Please forgive me and return."
Mo Feng was filled with remorse, blaming himself for not stopping Xiao Xiao in the front yard, which led to him disturbing Shen She. He felt extremely ashamed.
In the instant he was distracted, Xiaoxiao seized the opportunity to grab the food box and slip past Mofeng, quickly rushing into the courtyard.
Xiao Xiao lifted her skirt and ran ahead, while Mo Feng chased after her with a gloomy expression. Just as they were about to catch up, the cunning woman nimbly slipped behind Shen She and even made a smug face at Mo Feng.
A slender, soft hand gripped the clothes around his waist, causing Shen She's face to stiffen. He heard the woman's triumphant shout in his ear, "You can't catch me!"
The adult dislikes being close to people, and now he has been repeatedly defiled by this wicked woman, making Mo Feng so angry that he wanted to kill Xiao Xiao on the spot. However, since Xiao Xiao was hiding behind Shen She, Mo Feng was afraid of accidentally hurting Shen She, so he could only glare fiercely at her.
Seeing Mo Feng so sullen, like an angry pufferfish, Xiao Xiao couldn't help but laugh. Only when she relaxed did she realize that she had actually pulled Shen She's waist into wrinkles in her tension, and she hurriedly apologized.
Without feigned arrogance or haughtiness, Xiaoxiao, flustered at this moment, resembled a child who had done something wrong, her pretty face filled with panic and confusion.
Perhaps this is what she truly looks like when she takes off her disguise!
Simple, cute, and a little clumsy...
Shen She withdrew his gaze, straightened Xiao Xiao's wrinkled clothes, gently took the food box and smiled, "Since Your Highness has come to deliver pastries and is so deeply moved that it is hard to dissuade you, then this humble official will accept it."
Xiao Xiao glanced at the documents on the desk inside the room, pouted and said coquettishly, "I personally brought the snacks here, aren't you going to invite me inside to sit down?"
As Xiaoxiao spoke, she glanced intentionally or unintentionally at Mofeng, who was sullen, and Ruyan, who was lost in thought, below the steps.
Seeing that Shen She remained silent and still smiling, Xiao Xiao had no choice but to drop a bombshell: "I'm already yours, why would I be afraid of harming you?"
These words made Shen She's lips curl up slightly, but he still didn't say anything, just continued to look at Xiao Xiao, his eyes flashing with an unfathomable light.
Xiao Xiao inwardly groaned, "Why is this man so difficult to deal with?!" But she couldn't give up just like that; she had to find a way to make him believe in her.
So, Xiao Xiao took a deep breath and decided to go all out. "Shen She, I know you have doubts about me, but I really love you. If you don't believe me, I'll swear a solemn oath right now: if I do anything to wrong you, may I be burned by heavenly flames and die a horrible death."
Shen She looked at Xiao Xiao with a half-smile for a while, then slowly said, "Since Your Highness has sworn a solemn oath to treat me sincerely, I will also treat you sincerely. I hereby swear! If I break this oath, may I be pierced through the heart by a thousand swords and die with my eyes wide open in disbelief. What do you say?"
Xiao Xiao's oath was just a casual, bluffing promise, so she naturally agreed quickly. Almost the instant Shen She finished speaking, she replied, "Okay!"
Shen She wasn't annoyed. He lazily waved his hand at the two of them and said, "You may both leave. The princess and I have some private matters to attend to."
His voice was deep and magnetic, captivating all who heard it. But Xiao Xiao had no time to appreciate his voice; she was only concerned with the fact that she had finally taken a step forward.
"But, sir..." Mo Feng was cut off by a look from Shen She before he could finish speaking. He could only grit his teeth helplessly and leave the room with Ru Yan.
Ruyan was overjoyed to hear Shen She's words. She had been wanting to make a quick getaway for a long time, and now this was the perfect opportunity to leave. She quickly bowed to Xiaoxiao and then disappeared into the vast night.
Mo Feng was in a hurry, but he had no choice but to retreat and hide in the shadows for the time being, in case of any unforeseen circumstances.
