C55 (1/2)

At that time, the emperor's face had already turned green, and Zhao Fan's order was not carried away.

Wen Jiu couldn't even remember how he was forced to leave after the palace banquet.

On the way out of the palace, Wen Jiu walked over by himself.

Everyone thought that she was a pestilence, as if being near her would lead to her losing her innocence.

While she was dreaming, she felt that cold feeling in her heart again.

Until then she had been no more than a little older, not much different from the other girls.

However, after that, she became the prostitute that everyone spoke of. She became an old lady that could not be married off to.

Wen Jiu then saw Xie Xuan walk to her in front of everyone, and enunciate each word clearly, ”Wen Jiu, even if you die, you can only be my fifth brother's man.”

She had fallen into a nightmare, and her forehead continuously broke out in cold sweat.

”Jiu?”

”Jiu.”

Someone whispered something in her ear.

Wen Jiu suddenly opened his eyes and saw the young man's handsome face enlarged beyond compare in front of her.

”Elder brother!”

She quickly sat up, her thoughts still wandering between the nightmare and reality. Her ink-colored eyes were somewhat frantic.

”Looks like I've had a nightmare.”

Xie Heng bent down, extended his hand and touched her forehead, saying in a low voice, ”Jiu is good, elder brother is here.”

He always seemed to regard her as a little sister, and when he said those words, he didn't feel the least bit awkward.

Wen Jiu took a deep breath, and calmed himself down with great effort, ”Big Brother, you're back so soon?”

”Yes.”

The youth retracted his hand, walked to the side and helped her push open the window, and casually said: ”Did you dream of Xie Xuan?”

The expression in Wen Jiu's eyes changed slightly, but she did not say anything.

”What's there to not say?”

Xie Heng laughed, his voice carried a hint of youthful elegance, ”In the past, whenever Xiaoliu met him, he would have nightmares at night.”

Wen Jiu was a little confused, ”There's actually such a thing?”

Xie Heng casually lied, ”Of course.”

She couldn't believe it, so she raised her eyes to look at the youth for a long time.

However, he had a serious expression on his face, so it was impossible to tell that he was faking it.

”Get up.”

Xie Heng reached out and pulled her up from the soft couch, ”Go out for a walk, it's no big deal. With me there, he wouldn't dare to do anything to you.”

Wen Jiu thought: If you weren't here, I would have already packed my things and escaped.

”Elder brother.”

She suddenly pulled on Xie Heng's sleeve and promised, ”Big Brother, I'll be staying at the Xie Family my entire life, I won't be going anywhere.”

”Mm …”

Xie Heng was startled for a moment, then nodded: ”Alright.”

Become a Xie Family for life.

Good.

Xie Xuan still made a trip to Eldest Princess Palace.

No one knew what exactly they were doing, but when the Third Young Master returned, he turned a blind eye to Wen Jiu.

Wen Jiu actually wanted to take care of the future Chief Minister, but he had a big temper. Even if he was sitting at a table and eating, he would not say a word, and the atmosphere in the residence had turned colder as well.

The maids in Wen Jiu's courtyard could not bear to watch any longer and suggested, ”Miss, do you think that Third Young Master and I … Reconciliation? ”

”Reconciliation what?”

Wen Jiu had been trying to figure out how to earn money these past few days. He had also looked at a few rooms.

With the extra money in her hands, she was completely focused on becoming the richest person in the sect. She really didn't have time to think about Xie Xuan.

As long as he wasn't thinking about what would happen to her.

A cold aura emanated from her body. At most, she would only need to wear two more sets of clothes.

”Have you forgotten?”

The maidservant timidly reminded, ”Ever since Sir and Third Young Master had an argument, he hasn't spoken a word …”
