Chapter 28
Little Putao took a deep breath, her silver hair turned red, she regained her composure, and then slowly cast a spell and floated into the air, her two paws folded together, and a silver imprint was slowly reflected on her forehead.The imprint was like a lotus petal, and a golden and silver light burst out suddenly, rushing towards Xia Muheng's chest.

The golden light gradually dissipated into a soft air current, covering the place where Xia Muheng was burned by the fire.The flesh of the wound was glowing with a faint pink glow, and it was healing little by little.

Xia Ningxi widened her eyes in surprise, rubbed her chin, and exclaimed, "I never thought you would be so useful. It seems that I really can't underestimate you."

Little Putao remained silent, realizing that the burns on Xia Muheng's body were almost healed, so she withdrew her claws and lay down on the bed weakly.

Xia Ningxi frowned, and quickly stepped forward to hug her into her arms, and asked with concern, "What's wrong with you?"

Little Putao blinked, nestled in her arms, squinted and fell into a deep sleep.

At this time, Xia Muheng struggled to open his eyes, and saw Xia Ningxi standing at the head of his bed with Xiaoputao in his arms, his heart warmed, he smiled palely, and said, "Third Sister, are you okay!"

Seeing him wake up, Xia Ningxi frowned, she was relieved, took a breath, and said calmly: "It's good that you wake up, I just came to see you. Since you are fine, I should go too .” After the words fell, he turned around and was about to leave.

Xia Muheng sat up slowly, looked at her back, sighed lightly, and asked worriedly, "Is your face okay?"

Xia Ningxi sneered, and curled the corners of her lips: "Thank you for your concern, second brother, but unfortunately, my face will definitely leave scars. But there is a good saying, if you lose your horse, you know it's not a blessing. Maybe, my face It is a good thing to burn it down.”

"What do you mean by that? The most important thing in a girl's family is her face. You never thought about it, your face is really ruined, how will you marry in the future?" Xia Muheng frowned, with a look of disbelief untie.

Xia Ningxi turned her head back, looked at him calmly, and said with a light smile, "Even if my face gets better, so what? Will Father and Auntie still let me marry a good man? You should have known that they brought me back The purpose is just to let me marry that short-lived prince instead of eldest sister. Since I am also a widow, I would rather ruin my tolerance and not marry!"

"What did you say? Parents asked you to marry the prince instead of elder sister?" Xia Muheng obviously didn't believe it, and sat up in a hurry regardless of his health.

"Actually, when I think about it carefully, I understand them very well. After all, I am an evil star, and I will only bring disasters to the Hou family. The eldest sister is both talented and beautiful, so they naturally can't bear to let the eldest sister marry someone who will not live for a few years and is rumored to be ineffective. Prince, if it wasn't for my ruined face, for the sake of the Hou family, I would rather marry instead." Xia Ningxi raised her eyebrows, then turned and left.

Xia Muheng hurriedly pulled up his shoes and stood up, and asked anxiously, "Sister, is what you said true?"

"Whether it's true or not, it has nothing to do with you. I will tell you the truth because you gave your life to save me yesterday. As long as you know this in your own mind, you must never tell anyone about it. Going out is a crime of deceiving the king."

With a look of coldness in her eyes, Xia Ningxi quickly walked out of the room, and when she arrived, she said, "Remember to take the medicine."

Xia Muheng was stunned on the spot, his hands drooping down, and it was the first time he realized what it means to be powerless.

Xia Muyao is his older sister, while Xia Ningxi is his half-sister. No matter how selfless he is, he doesn't know how to choose between the two.

Carrying Little Putao, whose mana was wasted all the way back to the room, Xia Ningxi carefully placed her on the bed, pulled the brocade quilt to cover her, frowned in distress, and said, "I didn't expect that after you used mana, I'm so sorry for being so weak!"

"Because my mana grows with your mana, and only when your mana becomes stronger will my mana become stronger." Little Putao said this sentence smoothly, and her spirit was already very weak.

Xia Ningxi stared at her suspiciously, but knew that she couldn't say a few words, so she had to give up, stroking her fur to lull her to sleep, propping her cheeks thoughtfully to think about the problem.

According to her master, she is a genius who cultivates spells. In other words, her spells still have infinite room for improvement.

Thinking of this, she pursed her lips, stood up and left the room, ready to go out and find a quiet place to practice her mind.

After leaving the door, she dexterously climbed over the high wall to leave the mansion, and then climbed up to the roof.

Just as she was about to walk along the roof to a deserted place in the outskirts of the city, a man in green robe held a sword in front of her, looked at her with light toes, smiled kindly, raised his sword and said, "Miss Xia, My son is here to invite you."

Xia Ningxi chuckled, tilted her head and said, "Your son is quite airy, and being with me, the third lady of the Hou's Mansion, is not worth mentioning in his eyes?"

The person in the green robe is naturally Yin Chen's bodyguard, Luo Qing. Luo Qing has a calm expression, and still smiles lightly: "Miss Xia, please!"

Xia Ningxi didn't bother to talk too much, and raised her eyebrows in a breathless voice: "Since your son is so sincere, I will let you go with me."

Luo Qing nodded, turned around, and quickly leaped towards a teahouse not far away.

Xia Ningxi followed closely behind, and after a while, she jumped from the railing and landed in the teahouse.

The teahouse was very quiet, and there were private rooms upstairs, Luo Qing pushed open a door at the end of the corridor, and raised his hand politely: "Miss Xia, please."

Xia Ningxi nodded casually, and entered the private room calmly.The smell of tea in the room was lingering, Luo Qing closed the door without any hassle, and only she and Yin Chen, who was sitting on the other side of the table with a pale face, was drinking tea leisurely.

Frowning and looking at Yin Chen's face, Xia Ningxi suddenly felt a sore pain in her heart.For some reason, as long as she saw Yin Chen's weak appearance, she felt uncomfortable.Could it be because you moved your heart?Or, have you been attracted to him from the first moment you saw him?
Holding the teacup indifferently, Yin Chen didn't raise his eyes to look at her, but calmly said, "Sit down!"

Xia Ningxi frowned slightly and sat down opposite him, took a deep breath, suppressed the inexplicable pain in her heart, and asked softly: "Why haven't you seen each other for a few days, and your body is so weak?"

Yin Chen chuckled, raised his head to look at her, and jokingly said, "Are you caring about me?"

Xia Ningxi's eyes dodged, and she quickly suppressed the panic in her heart, and covered her emotions: "It's just a casual question, you don't have to say it if you don't want to."

"I invited you here today because I want to tell you that your face can continue to pretend to be injured. However, don't rush to mention the matter of surrogate marriage. Just check what you want, and don't worry about the rest .in addition."

Yin Chen paused, then added a cup of tea and handed it to her, "Your eldest sister who is both talented and beautiful, likes the son of the late emperor, the thirteenth prince Yu Shengchi, whose current power in the court has long been Overwhelm the prince and several other lords. His Royal Highness actually has nothing but the position of a prince. Your father asked you to marry on his behalf, but because he doesn't care about you. At that time, your eldest sister will have the honor to marry the thirteen princes, Hou The power of the government will naturally be used by the Thirteenth Prince."

Xia Ningxi lowered her eyes slightly and took a sip of her tea. She said absent-mindedly, "You've said so much, but I didn't understand what you wanted to say."
