"Is that so?" Xi Mengyao raised her eyebrows, and looked at him. "I thought that I had only heard it a little."

"Those who wish to avoid the world actually have such thoughts?"

Song Chongjing's voice was as downcast as the flowing water of a mountain stream. He smiled faintly, as if he was just talking about wind and snow.

Xi Mengyao turned his head to look at him, only to see that Song Chongjing also had his head lowered to look at her. The two of them looked at each other, and the corners of their mouths raised in a faint smile.

If someone who didn't know anything saw this, they would think that the two of them were having a pleasant conversation.

They hadn't thought that using such a tone, it would actually be a complete threat and a test.

"Princess has nothing to say?" Seeing that she did not answer, Song Chongjing asked softly.

Hearing that, Xi Mengyao shrugged, and only raised her head to look at him, and sighed: "The prince is suspicious too."

Song Chongjing looked at her coldly, and he knew, that this person understood his meaning.

"However, you don't have to worry. Whether it's you, the Prime Minister or the Emperor, I cannot afford to offend them. Since I can't, I naturally have no intention of becoming enemies with any of you." I only want to settle down and give birth to my own later years, so naturally, I have to be more concerned about myself. "

When Xi Mengyao said these words, the night wind just happened to blow past.

The cold breeze carried the aura of frost and snow. The sharp edges scraped against the skin, causing one to feel a chill all over their body.

She was somewhat enlightened.

She had felt this feeling before as well.

That was the first time she came across a human life case. After a girl was framed and had nowhere to go, on a late autumn night, she jumped down from dozens of tall buildings by herself.

It was broken, by the way, and there was a rather Picasso statue of a lion carved on the side of the road.

The police had investigated suicide, and her parents had thought it a murder. They had thought that a girl could not jump from the roof of a building that was well guarded, despite all the obstacles.

Only when she was entrusted with the investigation by the girl's parents did she ascend the tall building. She heard the girl's parents behind her back as they looked at the place where her daughter had last lived, and then discussed how much compensation they could file in court if the police misjudged her.

The cold wind brushed past her face. Only now did she finally understand how terrifying the human heart was.

The family was crying their hearts out in front of her, but in the end, they were quarreled over an inconsequential compensation.

Even the feelings of someone close to him could sometimes be faked to the point of revolting in front of his own interests.

Maybe the family really wanted to find the truth, but they would occasionally make a turn on the road, but she could no longer believe that there was such a thing in people's hearts.

The only one who would not deceive and be hypocritical would always be himself.

The only person who could protect herself forever was only Xi Mengyao.

However, even if he understood, it didn't mean that he was feeling good. Especially when she was "married" and her husband still suspected her of being a spy.

Accompanied by the gradually setting sun and the increasingly resplendent red clouds, Xi Mengyao felt that she should have shed two drops of tears on the spot to come to Bo Bo's side.

However, in the end, she was still a person whose principles were carved into her bones. It wasn't that easy to change.

"I should have already told your people that I don't want to be anyone's chess piece, and I don't want to involve anyone in the fight. Do you think it's a crime for me to live here now and protect myself?"

Xi Mengyao smiled, she spoke with ridicule, and her eyes were cold.

"…" Song Chongjing was speechless for a moment. It was as if he could see her revealing his sharp claws, like a wild leopard meeting danger, baring his fangs and brandishing his claws to protect his own territory.

She was clearly sitting leisurely on the reclining chair, but he suddenly thought that she was carrying a long sword on her back and was standing on the battlefield.

In the past, he only felt that this person's thoughts were different from ordinary people's.

But now, he didn't know if it was because of this or not, but now he had an extra sense of wanting to be friends with someone.

He could not help but recall the people from the martial arts world that he had only met once in the Lunar Restaurant that day.

Unexpectedly, seeing him like this, Xi Mengyao actually thought of the same thing, but she did not have the heart to say anything. She remembered, the last time she met this prince.

At that time, no matter how he looked at it, it was as if he had gone out to do shameful things.

Although he didn't know what exactly he was talking about, since he didn't want anyone to recognize him, it wouldn't be an honorable matter.

She had clearly not held herself upright, yet she still spoke in such a tone, as if she owed him something.

When Xi Mengyao thought of this, she sneered: "If the Prince is innocent, he wouldn't be afraid of what others are doing in front of your eyes. I'm not some vile person, the Prince probably knows this as well."

Xi Mengyao then turned her hand as though she had proven her innocence. Then, she turned and looked at her own courtyard door and pointed: "Moreover, my door never closes. If you want to come, just send people to monitor me."

"You …" Song Chongjing looked at her and an indescribable emotion rose in his heart.

Anger, or sadness... This caused him to be somewhat surprised. Since when did he already have the fluctuation of his emotions due to the actions and words of this little girl …

"Prince Jing, what are you afraid of?"

Upon hearing this question, Song Chong also returned to his senses and looked at her. He saw that her eyes were cold and she didn't hide anything. However, there was a trace of ridicule in her calmness.

He understood that this person was not a good house cat, but a ferocious beast.

Being obedient was just her lazily fighting, he was helpless. Shaking his head and sighing, he said, "Why are you so? With such a character, what benefits do you get from competing and winning?"

Xi Mengyao opened her eyes wide, she really wanted to ridicule Song Chongjing, saying that she could not understand what she was saying, she had already said it many times already.

But seeing the look in his eyes, Xi Mengyao came to a sudden realization.

She quickly lowered her head and smiled helplessly, "I don't want to be strong, but I don't want to be bullied. Since I was born, I have to be better to myself once I have traveled this world. It really isn't easy. "

When Xi Mengyao said this, she suddenly thought of the past.

Although she had inherited the memories of this young miss, in her mind, she still believed that she was not the big miss of Prime Minister's Mansion.

That car accident, she didn't believe it was just an accident. There must have been someone behind it. However, she had offended too many people that she couldn't explain in a short period of time.

Now, she didn't want to think about it anymore. After dying and being reborn, she had seen through a lot of things, so she wouldn't be too restrained.

However, it was also because there were too few people, that she couldn't help but forget that she was now the eldest miss of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and that her personality had changed too much, so she would probably be suspected, especially this person in front of her.

Sure enough, Song Chongjing was still looking at her.

Xi Mengyao lowered her head, and said with a cold smile: "Prince, there is no need to probe any further. I am different from you, I have never been a person in the muddy swamp."
