…

In the elegant room, brother and sister Jiang Fengmian and Shen Qiaochen were chatting animatedly.

It seemed that Xiao Jue, who was sitting alone by the window on the other side, was a little more deserted.

After an unknown amount of time, Nan Xing hurried in from outside.

Seeing the two "distinct" groups of people in Nuo Da's room, Nan Xing, who was dressed in black, hesitated for a moment, then walked lightly towards Xiao Jue by the window.

When passing by Shen Qiaochen and the others sitting in the center of the room, Nan Xing subconsciously looked up and met a pair of glass-like eyes.

Nan Xing was stunned for a long time, and just about to step forward to salute, she saw Shen Qiaochen nodded to her with a smile, and then looked away.

There was a flash of confusion in his eyes, and Nan Xing continued to walk in the direction of Xiao Jue.

Little did he know that after she turned around, Shen Qiaochen raised her head again.

Looking at Nan Xing's tall back and Nan Zhu's appearance that was so similar to hers, Shen Qiaochen was thoughtful.

…

Nan Xing came to Xiao Jue and bowed respectfully before standing up again.

"master."

Nan Xing's voice was extremely low, and she received no response for a long while. She was not in a hurry and still stood with her head bowed.

Xiao Jue was dressed in black clothes, sitting in the darkness. The candle on the table had been extinguished at some point, and only the watery moonlight outside the window was faintly flowing on her body.

As if he didn't hear Nan Xing's words, he was still looking in the direction outside the window. The light downstairs reflected in his narrow phoenix eyes, making it look even more strange.

After a while, he seemed to have finally come to his senses, and slowly brushed away the non-existent dust on his body.

He turned to look at Nan Xing, his handsome eyebrows raised slightly.

Upon seeing this, Nan Xing immediately continued:

"My subordinates have followed the master's wishes and found a woman similar to the fourth girl from the secret guards. Now... everything is ready. Master, please rest assured."

It turned out that Xiao Jue had made arrangements early in the morning. No one in Zui Jiangyue had seen the true appearance of the woman in black tonight. He just wanted to have someone dress up in Shen Qiaochen's attire at that time. After they left, he would be alone again. Just leave openly and openly in front of everyone.

As for the candidate, Xiao Jue has countless secret guards, so it is not difficult to find someone with a similar body shape and height to Shen Qiaochen.

The most important thing about this operation was just to let everyone present clearly see that the woman in black left alone.

As for the secret guard, after leaving Zui Jiangyue, it is naturally not difficult to shake off the tail behind him without anyone noticing.

After hearing Nan Xing's reply, Xiao Jue nodded slightly.

"She doesn't need to know about this."

After a while, Nan Xing didn't reply. Xiao Jue raised his eyes and saw a slight hesitation on her face.

"What?" Xiao Jue asked confused.

Hearing this, Nan Xing became more entangled in her heart, but she saw a trace of impatience flashing in her master's eyes, so she could only hesitate to speak:

"Master, this matter... the fourth girl should have expected it a long time ago."

As he spoke, Nan Xing recalled the situation upstairs...

At that time, Shen Qiaochen and Ling Lan were changing clothes in the inner room, while Nan Xing was alone in the outer room.

She is a martial arts practitioner and has always had outstanding ears. Although she was mostly focused on the snacks made by Linglan at that time, there was only a thin screen between them. If Shen Qiaochen and Linglan were inside, they would naturally She heard everything clearly.

Nan Xing originally thought that Shen Qiaochen, as a legendary timid girl, would have reacted, even if she wasn't shocked to death, when she suddenly found strange men's clothes in her baggage.

Even if she is smarter than the legend says, and can recognize that the men's clothes in the bag were not prepared by the Shen family, she may not be able to figure out the origin of the men's clothes.

After all, it was sent up in the Shen family's baggage.

But the result was really beyond Nan Xing's expectation. Shen Qiaochen not only thought that the clothes were sent by his master, but also guessed his master's plan...

The most important thing is that after knowing all this, Shen Qiaochen still followed her downstairs wearing men's clothes as if nothing had happened...

It was precisely because of this that Nan Xing was even more impressed by the pale and slender-looking girl Shen Si.

…

Now, since his master asked about it, Nan Xing told everything about what happened just now.

Listening to the frosty Nan Xing, he repeated the sentence expressionlessly in Shen Qiaochen's tone:

"As for the woman in black, I think someone will take care of it for us." Xiao Jue couldn't help but chuckle.

"Did she really say that?"

"Exactly. "

Nan Xing paused when he heard the words, and quietly raised his eyes to look at Xiao Jue, only to see his master, who always looked above his head, with a bright smile in his narrow phoenix eyes.

When Nan Xing saw this, he immediately lowered his head, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, but a trace of shock flashed through his heart.

As we all know, Prince Xiao has always been unruly and careless in public.

But only people like Nan Xing, who have been with their master all year round, know that in private, their master has always been a little indifferent.

All in all, Xiao Jue rarely reveals his true emotions in front of others.

But since I met Miss Shen Si, everything has been different.

I don’t know if this is a good thing or a bad thing...

Nan Xing was still entangled in his thoughts, but Xiao Jue had already stood up and walked towards the three people in the room.

At this time, the three people at the table were chatting happily, and Shen Qiaoran and Jiang Fengmian even called themselves brothers as if they had known each other at first sight.

Only Shen Qiaochen spoke very little, but she sat quietly aside and looked at them with a faint smile.

When Xiao Jue came over, he saw such a picture.

Jiang Fengmian and Shen Qiaoran were chatting happily, and it was as if Xiao Jue, a big man like him, was standing there without even noticing.

After glancing at the two people sitting together, Xiao Jue could only sit down at the only chair next to the table.

There was someone sitting next to him, and Shen Qiaochen naturally noticed it.

I just felt a dark shadow shrouding my side, and then a familiar smell of agarwood came from the tip of my nose.

For some reason, Xiao Jue's and Shen Qiaochen's chairs were not very close to each other, but Shen Qiaochen could still clearly feel the cold fragrance of Shen Shui on his body.

It was exactly the same smell he smelled when he took himself off the float tonight.

Shen Qiaochen suddenly remembered that the black cloak she had wrapped around her body before seemed to have something of the same smell.

Her eyes unconsciously swept over the black clothes of the people around her. The long robe corners fell down with Xiao Jue's movements, and the silver patterns on them flowed faintly, low-key and luxurious.

Shen Qiaochen suddenly realized that it seemed to be the same brocade satin as what he was wearing at the moment, and even the color and pattern were the same.

And the clothes Shen Qiaochen wore were sent by Xiao Jue.

Thinking of this, Shen Qiaochen couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
