“The one who harmed me is Mu Hua,” Xiao Fei said, lowering her head to look at Jia. “He also said he would only accompany me to wait for the person who takes me away. Your words are all the same.”
Mu Anxiao followed Xiao Fei’s gaze and looked at Jia as well. “This is the rule,” she said.
“Rules,” Xiao Fei said, scoffing. “You don’t have the right to say that.”
“How do I not have the right?” Mu Anxiao had not yet understood the meaning behind Xiao Fei’s words.
Xiao Fei: “From the moment he saved you and resurrected you, there have been no rules for him. And I did not ask you to save me. I only wanted the person who killed me to taste the retribution they deserve. Tell me, isn’t that right?”
Mu Anxiao lowered her eyes and smiled. “I never noticed before how eloquent you are,” she said, smiling again. “It seems you’ve truly learned Mu Hua’s way with words.”
“Don’t mention her to me,” Xiao Fei gritted out.
Mu Anxiao’s lips curved. “It seems you really dislike her.”
“Rather than dislike, it’s hatred,” Xiao Fei’s eyes revealed unwavering resolve. “That’s right.”
“Hatred…” Mu Anxiao deliberately repeated the word in her mouth and laughed. “It seems she hurt you greatly. However, I recall she didn’t punish you.”
Although Mu Hua was detestable, from Mu Anxiao’s understanding of Mu Hua, she was the type to only rely on words, not actions. As for the methods used to kill Mu Anxiao, they were mostly thought up by the Madam.
Therefore, based on this alone, Mu Anxiao did not believe… it was Mu Hua who had poisoned her.
Hearing Mu Anxiao’s roundabout attempts to defend Mu Hua, Xiao Fei said indignantly, “What are you trying to say? Or do you think I’m lying?”
“I never said you were lying. I just don’t want…” Mu Anxiao lowered her head and glanced at Jia, who had fallen silent. “…for him to make mistakes because of you.”
“I am the one who was killed, and I am the ghost who witnessed everything. Therefore,” Xiao Fei said seriously, “what I say is definitely the truth, without falsehood.”
“He captured a soul before and it spoke lies,” Mu Anxiao pointed out Xiao Fei’s earnestness.
Hearing Mu Anxiao’s words, Xiao Fei forced herself not to avoid her gaze. “That has nothing to do with me.”
“It has nothing to do with you, but,” Mu Anxiao met Xiao Fei’s eyes, “don’t you want to know… the fate of that soul?” she smiled.
Xiao Fei feared Mu Anxiao’s smile at this moment the most. Looking at her, Xiao Fei couldn’t help but shift her gaze away and say, “I don’t want to know.”
“If you don’t want to know, then you’re guilty,” Mu Anxiao said deliberately.
Xiao Fei frowned upon hearing this. “If I don’t want to know, I don’t want to know. Must you be so aggressive?” She was angry.
Conversely, seeing Xiao Fei like this, Mu Anxiao burst into laughter. “I’m not pressuring you. See, you’re guilty, aren’t you?” She poked Xiao Fei’s face twice.
At this moment, Jia couldn’t understand what Mu Anxiao was trying to do.
Xiao Fei’s face grew stern.
A few minutes later.
Mu Anxiao stopped her unrestrained laughter and became serious. “Do you want to know or not?”
Xiao Fei turned her face away.
Jia asked, unable to bear it any longer, “Mu Xiao, what exactly do you want?”
“…” Mu Anxiao hadn’t expected Jia to keep up with her pace. Therefore, seeing his confused expression, she wasn’t angry. Instead, she smiled lightly and asked, “Aren’t you curious why you met me here?”
Jia hadn’t paid attention to this question before. But now, hearing Mu Anxiao’s question, he suddenly realized. Didn’t Mu Anxiao leave with Feng Qishi and the others? How… was she alone now?
Thinking this, he peeked behind Mu Anxiao, then looked around the quiet street and asked, “Right, weren’t you supposed to leave with Feng Qishi?”
“There was nothing for me in there, so I’m free now,” Mu Anxiao said indifferently.
“I knew Shen Moyun wouldn’t arrest you,” Xiao Fei suddenly said.
Mu Anxiao frowned and shifted her gaze back to Xiao Fei’s face. “So sure?”
“No matter what, you were going to enter the palace. If you were to face imprisonment at this time, the unlucky one would be either you or Shen Moyun. Therefore,” Xiao Fei’s mind worked quickly, “I knew he wouldn’t arrest you.”
“You figured all of this out. Then can you tell me who killed you now?” Mu Anxiao asked with a smile.
Xiao Fei’s expression froze.
Mu Anxiao: “It seems you’re still unwilling to tell the truth. Fine, I’m too lazy to chat with you aimlessly. I’m leaving.” After speaking, she walked around Xiao Fei towards the inn.
Following that, Xiao Fei’s eyes darted, and she quickly turned around, saying, “Are you messing with me?”
Hearing this, Mu Anxiao stopped in her tracks, turned sideways to look at Xiao Fei, and smiled. “Think whatever you want. However, using you to pass the time is a good choice.”
“You…”
“I’m waiting for your truth,” Mu Anxiao interrupted, looking at Jia, who was about to speak, and deliberately said, “I’ll give you two choices: follow me, or follow her.”
Jia: “You’re toying with me, and you want me to follow you.” He had only just realized this.
Mu Anxiao: “If you don’t want to follow, then follow her. However, you must come and report her situation to me at any time.” She pointed at Xiao Fei and turned to leave.
Jia snorted.
After Mu Anxiao left, Xiao Fei fell silent.
A quarter of an hour later.
Mu Anxiao sat at a table, looking at two black-clothed men sitting at a table opposite her, constantly staring at her. She frowned and asked directly, “What are you looking at?”
The first black-clothed man heard Mu Anxiao speak and smiled faintly. “Miss, you’re alone.” Saying this, he stood up and walked towards her.
Mu Anxiao looked at the first black-clothed man’s ill-intentioned smile, casually picked up the teacup on the table, and said, “I am two people.”
“…” The first black-clothed man thought Mu Anxiao was joking and laughed. “Miss, you are indeed humorous.” Saying this, he stopped in front of the table.
Mu Anxiao held the teacup, tilted her head to look at the still smiling first black-clothed man, snorted, and turned to look at the little boy who had naturally sat beside her, saying, “Did he send you?”
The little boy pointed to the teacup in Mu Anxiao’s hand.
Mu Anxiao’s lips curled. Just as she was about to hand the cup to the little boy, he pointed to Mu Anxiao’s hand again.
Seeing this, Mu Anxiao frowned. “You want me to dip my hand in water and give it to you to drink.”
The little boy nodded.
Mu Anxiao’s expression stiffened. She then thought of Feng Qishi feeding blood to the little boy and said, “I won’t give you my blood.”
“I only want to eat blood when I’m hungry. I’m just thirsty now.”
“…” Mu Anxiao completely ignored the first black-clothed man who was staring at her and said, “If you get hungry, don’t come looking for me.” She hesitated, then handed the cup to the little boy. “I think… you’d better drink it yourself.”
