Chapter 71 Lost in the east, harvested mulberry
After leaving the government jail, Bai Shier still didn't understand what had happened just now, and why Mu Yixing could see the clues and see through his plans at the last moment.
While thinking about it, he was walking aimlessly. When he came to his senses, he was a little surprised and embarrassed to find that he had unknowingly walked to the room where Zhu Jinxuan lived.
Just when he was still glad that he had not seen Zhu Jinxuan and planned to slip away while he was not discovered, a familiar cough suddenly came from behind him.
"Ahem."
Bai Shier, who heard that this was Zhu Jinxuan's voice, wanted to slap himself twice, but he could only bite the bullet and turn around.
Looking at Bai Shier who looked embarrassed and seemed to suffer so much trouble when he came here, he thought he was here to admit his mistake to him, and his originally pretended to be angry on his face instantly became even more disheartened.
"Who did you show off such a dead face? If you don't want to apologize, why should you come back and demonstrate to me?"
As a real princess, Zhu Jinxuan is naturally more proud than those women who think they are little princesses. Therefore, as soon as she spoke, the dissatisfaction in her tone was exposed and she was brilliant.
"Why do I need to apologize to you? It's you who are making trouble without reason."
When Bai Shier heard this, his face was naturally filled with dissatisfaction, and his tone was even more stiff.
"Since that's the case, why do you have to come back!"
Zhu Jinxuan, who thought he wanted to come back and apologize to him, heard this, and the dissatisfaction on her face immediately turned into a deep grievance. However, her long-term pride still prompted her to blurt out the words she said without any softening.
"This, this,..."
However, this problem that may lead the relationship between the two to deteriorate further had unexpected results at this time.
Because when Bai Shier faced this question, he really didn't know how to answer it.
Although he could use other lies to cover up, when he quarreled with Zhu Jinxuan before, what Zhu Jinxuan said to him still had an effect, although he himself was unwilling to admit it.
But if he had reported it to the truth, he felt that he could not bear the weight and was even more worried that he might be ruthlessly ridiculed by Zhu Jinxuan, so he was stuck for a moment.
Looking at Bai Shier, who had always been erect, was speechless, but could not tell the reasons behind it, Zhu Jinxuan didn't have any thought of mocking him. On the contrary, she thought Bai Shier must have a desire to apologize to her, but when she came to her head, she felt embarrassed.
This "self-guided strategy" made Bai Shier very disappointed and dissatisfied. He even began to doubt whether his previous decision was correct. He thought about whether he should continue to wander around like this. Zhu Jinxuan, who accompanied Bai Shier, felt hope again in her heart, and the attitude on her face couldn't help but soften a lot.
"Okay, I know that as a man, you apologize to me, a weak woman, is a bit indifferent, but now it is enough to let me know that you have this apology heart."
Since Zhu Jinxuan had already decided that Bai Shier had come back this time to apologize to him, the emotions that had been accumulated because of his anger were finally thrown out after being vented.
"I did something wrong in this matter. I also know that you did it for my safety reasons before. The experience of that night scared you."
Since this breath has been released, Zhu Jinxuan will naturally not continue to hold on. She thought that all the mistakes were Bai Shier, and began to understand Bai Shier.
"Ahem, yes, if it weren't for the night being too dangerous, I wouldn't have realized the Ten Step Sword because I was too worried about you."
Although Bai Shier didn't know why Zhu Jinxuan suddenly became reasonable again, and he didn't understand why the knot between the two suddenly untied, he could not have been stupid enough to destroy this rare peaceful dialogue situation.
"If I could comprehend the Ten Step Sword in the past, I would have been extremely happy, but that night, I wished I would never have such a chance. From then on, I had made up my mind that I would never have been in that dangerous situation again in the future."
Bai Shier's eyes at Zhu Jinxuan became gentle again, but when he talked about the danger that night, he still couldn't help but show a strong fear in his eyes.
"But have you ever thought that there are many guards around me, such as Hutongzhi, who can entrust me to them to ensure my safety. What if you can? There is no way that there will always be someone around me, right?"
"There must be a road before the car arrives at the mountain. After the future..."
Although Bai Shier thought her words made sense, he still couldn't agree with it after frowning and thinking for a moment.
"But if I don't take advantage of the opportunity of a large number of guards around me and accumulate experience, wouldn't it be even more dangerous if I suddenly put me in that huge danger?"
But before Bai Shier finished speaking, Zhu Jinxuan interrupted him.
"this..."
Bai Shier wanted to refute it, but after opening his mouth, he found that he could not think of any powerful reason to refute it.
Indeed, if they follow the two of them’s previous ideas, sooner or later they will really want them to join hands together. Instead of facing huge dangers to get in touch, it is indeed the best way to try continuously when there are a large number of guards now.
"I know that my martial arts skills are not high and my light skills are not good, but because of this, you need to guide my martial arts skills and light skills."
Zhu Jinxuan obviously would not miss this rare opportunity to express her thoughts. She continued while Bai Shier was refuted by her words and didn't know how to refute her.
"Okay, okay, what you said is right. I did something wrong before. I shouldn't be angry with you in this matter, and I shouldn't ignore your explanation. I just want to consider everything from my own perspective, but..."
Bai Shier is not the kind of person who refuses to admit his mistakes, nor is he a machismo. Although machismo is the mainstream in this era. Therefore, he decisively admitted his mistakes to Zhu Jinxuan, but in the end, he seemed a little unwilling to accept it. When the tone changed, his face showed a smile that made Zhu Jinxuan feel nervous immediately.
"Xuan'er, are you really sure you want me to teach you martial arts and light skills?"
Although the familiar title returned to Bai Shier's mouth again, Zhu Jinxuan didn't know why, but after hearing this sentence, she was always a little restless.
"certainly."
However, just now, he used such a reason to suppress Bai Shier and made him apologize to him. Zhu Jinxuan naturally could not change her words, so even though she was a little nervous, she nodded with certainty.
"very good."
Bai Shier, who had been staring at her, said to him with satisfaction as if he had finally waited for a spider whose prey had fallen into the net.
"That's not going to be late, and since I don't have anything to do recently, we'll start tomorrow."
"tomorrow?"
Zhu Jinxuan became more and more alert and nervous, but she still couldn't find any clues about why she was nervous and what she needed to be alert to.
"Okay, then start tomorrow."
So after thinking for a while, she still couldn't figure out what was wrong, and nodded and agreed to Bai Shier's request to start tomorrow.
"But Mu Yixing has been arrested for so long. Has there still no news yet?"
But immediately, Zhu Jinxuan seemed to unconsciously mention Mu Yixing, and asked Shieri with confusion on her face.
Before meeting Zhu Jinxuan, she was thinking about how Mu Yixing saw through Bai Shier, whom she planned. After she reminded her, she finally remembered "main business".
And he immediately guessed the meaning behind this.
Zhu Jinxuan obviously knew that he was back a long time ago, and also knew the purpose of his return.
But thinking about it, as Princess Xianyou, I asked the Jinyiwei about the whereabouts of her "son-in-law" and how could the Jinyiwei dare to hide at all when she was doing what she was doing.
But Bai Shier obviously wronged Zhu Jinxuan. In fact, except for asking Zeng Yiming to send a message to Bai Shier before, but later repent, Zhu Jinxuan really did not mention Bai Shier to anyone, let alone ask Bai Shier about whereabouts and what he is doing now.
The reason why she suddenly mentioned Mu Yixing was perhaps the result of the sudden burst of the strong "desire for survival" in her bones.
Although Bai Shier guessed wrongly, he finally resolved the conflict with Zhu Jinxuan. After ending the "Cold War", he would naturally not be stupid enough to speak again and make the situation suffer again.
"Well, when it comes to this Mu Yixing, Xuan'er, I want to discuss some things with you."
On the contrary, he felt that he could discuss with Zhu Jinxuan about the thing that he couldn't understand.
After all, Zhu Jinxuan has always been smart, and perhaps he can discover the mystery from the perspective he did not notice.
So he repeated everything that had just happened in the jail of the government office to Zhu Jinxuan in detail, and even detailed the expressions and actions of him and Mu Yixing at that time, worried that the mystery would be hidden in these subtle expressions and actions.
Of course, he was not stupid enough to interrogate Mu Yixing, which was the real purpose of his return this time. He told Zhu Jinxuan, but said that this was the follow-up purpose of apologizing to her when he came back.
Even though he guessed that Zhu Jinxuan had already learned about this from the group of Jinyiwei.
Although it seems similar to exposing it to the face, Bai Shier still knows how huge the consequences it causes.
Besides, maybe the Jinyiwei had not reported the truth because he was worried about being implicated?
Bai Shier thinks that this kind of thing that he is seeking death by himself should not be done.
I don’t know that Zhu Jinxuan, who was wandering around in his heart, fell into deep thought after listening to his seemingly lengthy narrative very carefully.
She didn't find out what went wrong, so she still needed to go through the whole thing again in her mind.
Obviously, because it was described by Bai Shi Er, she heard this series of things completely from Bai Shi Er's perspective, and when she was thinking, she was inevitably influenced by Bai Shi Er's thoughts.
However, after spending a considerable time and excluding the interference caused by Bai Shier's subjective angle as much as possible in her mind, she still found the point that Mu Yixing was most likely to make Bai Shier deceiving him.
"Can it be because of Brother Bai, your last sentence?"
"That last sentence?"
Bai Shier, who was originally looking expectant, suddenly showed confusion and confusion on his face after hearing Zhu Jinxuan's inquiry. It was obvious that Zhu Jinxuan thought that it might be harmful to his failure was too far from his original expectations, so that he was not prepared at all.
However, after closing his eyes and thinking for a long time, Bai Shier, who opened his eyes again, had a strong helplessness and bitter smile in his eyes.
He recognized the point Zhu Jinxuan found.
"From the beginning to the end, it seems that only this last paragraph is the most likely part of what makes me lose."
Looking at Zhu Jinxuan and speaking again, his tone was full of regret and regret.
"The ancients said that too much words will lead to mistakes. Sincerity will not deceive me."
Bai Shier finally figured it out, but his mood showed no sign of improvement. On the contrary, his mood became worse.
Because he thought that a small detail had a flaw before, Mu Yixing saw it, but now he knew that things were not like that.
What really hurt him was not a small detail, but the last sentence he said when Mu Yixing was caught in a fierce battle between heaven and man.
It was this passage that exposed his eagerness to Mu Yixing turn against him, which made Mu Yixing realize that he was deliberately deceiving himself, and then strengthened his heart and no longer paid attention to him.
He had clearly seen the dawn of victory, but he ended it with his own hands.
How could his mood not get worse?
"Okay, you don't have to blame yourself too much. Brother Bai just wants to pry open Mu Yixing's mouth."
Looking at Bai Shier who looked disappointed and blameless and shook his head and smiled bitterly, Zhu Jinxuan quickly spoke and comforted him.
"And you are not getting nothing. Even if Mu Yixing can really say nothing, Brother Bai, you have already confirmed through his performance in the first sentence. Is he really from Tianyan Sect?"
"Okay, Xuan'er, you don't have to comfort me. Compared to the big watermelon that pried open his mouth, this little bit of information is just a sesame seed."
"No matter how small the sesame seeds are, they are better than empty-handed?"
Zhu Jinxuan quickly comforted him again.
"And, this time, in addition to Mu Yixing, didn't we also arrest a lot of his subordinates?"
Seeing that Bai Shier still looked like he was not able to lift himself up, Zhu Jinxuan's beautiful eyes turned and thought of another group of people who could lift him up.
"Yeah~"
