However, now.
He felt no sense of amazent at her, but rather found her to be excessively plain.
He had lost interest in Bai Mowan.
But that did not an, he had no interest in the Bai Family’s military.
So he went straight up and approached Bai Mowan.
Bai Mowan truly detested Xiao Jinsen.
Her hatred for him was bone-deep.
How cruel this man must be, she seed to still feel the heart-piercing pain of his sword thrusting through her chest.
Thus, every ti she saw Xiao Jinsen, she wished to tear him into a thousand pieces.
"Wan’er," Xiao Jinsen still used the intimate term to address her.
Bai Mowan gave a light laugh.
The smile contained cruelty, yet she struggled to restrain it.
"Your Highness, Prince of Chu," Bai Mowan bowed formally.
"I heard that you rendered great service in saving the emperor yesterday, and you were promoted. Congratulations."
"This official thanks Your Highness, Prince of Chu."
"When have you beco so restrained in my presence?" Xiao Jinsen could clearly feel Bai Mowan’s estrangent.
He knew in his heart that ever since she caught him with Xie Zhizhen, Bai Mowan had given up on him and had set her heart on Xiao Jinxing instead.
It was because Bai Mowan had started to harbor feelings for Xiao Jinxing that he sched by all ans to prevent them from being together.
Although his plot succeeded.
But when he just saw Ye Qichi, his heart still felt a bit discontent.
It was as if, he lost a waterlon to pick up a sesa seed.
But upon reflection, in front of the Bai Family’s military, Ye Qichi didn’t amount to a waterlon, not even a sesa seed.
He didn’t need to feel any sense of loss.
"There is a distinction between monarch and subject, between n and won. Your Highness, Prince of Chu, you are about to marry Miss Xie Family, so it’s natural that I should avoid any suspicion."
"But I heard, Wan’er, that you spent a night with Crown Prince, and I wonder if that should also be avoided for propriety’s sake?" Xiao Jinsen’s cold mockery.
"Last night, the Crown Prince’s life was hanging by a thread, and everyone, including Young Master, the Princess, they all stayed with the Crown Prince. I don’t see anything improper with that."
"Wan’er, you are still so insincere," Xiao Jinsen laughed, a very sarcastic laugh, "You think Xiao Jinxing fancies you and will promise you the position of Crown Princess. Now, with the emperor’s decree, even if the Crown Prince likes you, it’s impossible for you to beco the Crown Princess. If you want to marry Xiao Jinxing, you can only be a concubine..."
"I am devoted to serving my country, and I have no room for romantic entanglents."
"I just want you to understand, it’s impossible between you and Xiao Jinxing, you should be more cautious, and not truly be fooled by Xiao Jinxing," Xiao Jinsen said coldly.
"Who is kind to , and who isn’t, my heart is clear as a mirror. Thank you for the reminder, Prince of Chu. From yesterday till now, I haven’t rested properly, so I will take my leave first." Having said that, Bai Mowan left indifferently.
Xiao Jinsen watched Bai Mowan’s retreating figure.
At the corner of his mouth, a cold smile ford.
This woman, she will never marry into their imperial family in this lifeti.
Indeed, it is quite pitiful.
Xiao Jinsen also turned and left.
Naturally, Wu Xufan followed behind Xiao Jinsen, escorting him all the way to the Consort’s Palace.
He didn’t know if it was his misconception.
Just now, Xiao Jinsen had consecutive encounters with Ye Qichi and Bai Mowan.
How co he felt that Xiao Jinsen was more interested in Ye Qichi?
A long ti after Ye Qichi left, Xiao Jinsen was still watching Ye Qichi’s retreating figure, and when Bai Mowan left, Xiao Jinsen didn’t even spare her a second glance before turning away.
Even the most cautious person sotis involuntarily reveals their true emotions, and they cannot be deceived.
So Xiao Jinsen truly feels differently about Ye Qichi.
And it’s not just Wu Xufan who has noticed this.
Bai Mowan seems to have noticed as well.
Xiao Jinsen, a man of extre caution, when facing Ye Qichi, didn’t even notice her presence at all.
She even saw Xiao Jinsen’s eyes full only of Ye Qichi.
This was sothing she had not seen in her last life, no matter how hypocritically Xiao Jinsen pretended in front of her.
And she originally didn’t want to have any interactions with Xiao Jinsen. When Xiao Jinsen hadn’t noticed her, she could have just left, but she stayed precisely to confirm her own thoughts, even deliberately letting Xiao Jinsen see her and get close to her to determine whether she was being paranoid.
She was not paranoid.
To Xiao Jinsen, she was rely a tool for his benefit.
So his gaze was cold and icy.
But towards Ye Qichi, his eyes were clearly different.
It’s not necessarily romantic interest.
But definitely, there were emotional ripples.
So Xiao Jinsen has taken an interest in Ye Qichi...
