Wishful Things

Chapter 144: A New Beginning

"What are you doing here?"

Wearing a white prison uniform, Xia Han's eyes were filled with a gloomy chill, with her hair hanging down her head.

"Of course I want to see how embarrassed the second young master of the Xia family is now."

With a sneer on the corner of Xu Ying's mouth, she said, "Now that I see you, I'm really relieved."

Although this state of mind seems superficial, it really made her feel very comfortable.

Xu Ying moved her eyes around the dimly lit area, and said slowly, "I have to say, this place is really suitable for you."

Xia Han's eyes became more and more sinister.

"Who is helping you behind the scenes?"

He stood up from the corner of the wall, dragging heavy chains on his hands and feet, walked slowly towards Xu Ying, and asked word by word: "... Or, who instigated you?" !"

The situation in front of him is absolutely impossible for a mere Xu Ying to do it!

He thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't figure out who could have such ability, so that his father even chose to give up on him...

Even if it is the order from the palace, there must be someone behind it who is manipulating all of this!

There was an iron fence between them, Xu Ying could clearly see the ferocious and uncontrollable expression on his face, but instead of being afraid, she felt refreshed.

"It's fair." She said calmly.

It was Justice who avenged her.

It is justice that punishes the wicked.

It's just that this justice is hard-won, and Miss Xu helped her get it back step by step.

But the evil ghost in front of him will never have the chance to know the truth.

He also didn't deserve to hear her mention Miss Xu's name.

Xia Han sneered again and again.

"It's okay not to say..."

He looked closely at the woman who was close at hand but couldn't be controlled, as if there was a fire burning in his heart.

"After I leave here, it will be very easy to find out the ins and outs of this matter...Xu Ying, don't be too complacent, do you really think you have won? You are just luckier!"

He lost this time because he was too careless, and he decided that no one could be his opponent——

He will never make the same mistake again next time!

Listening to his self-deception, Xu Ying only found it very funny.

"Second Master Xia, do you know how the people outside are talking about you, the former Hanlin Lang?"

Xia Han's face changed after hearing this.

"A murderer who is not as good as a beast, with a human face and a beast's heart, a hypocrite, and an evil spirit alive—"

"shut up!"

Xia Han suddenly yelled and interrupted Xu Ying, and stretched out the chained hand from the gap between the chains, trying to grab her.

Xu Ying took two steps back unhurriedly, looked at the man who was so crazy that his face was beyond recognition, and said with a smile: "Second Young Master Xia cares so much about other people's opinions, if he really goes out, he will only dare to hide behind others Right? If you are a maggot who can't show your true colors, this is the place you should stay."

Xia Han's eyes turned red when he heard it, and he looked like a ghost in hell.

"Do you really think I can't get out! My father is the chief minister of the court!"

There was mockery in Xu Ying's eyes.

He was so anxious that he even said such blunt words?

However, in the face of the emperor and the national destiny of Daqing, what can you do if you are the chief assistant?

And Xia Han still doesn't know that the evil deeds he has done have been closely linked to the lightning strike in Fengtian Temple——

So there is still a trace of delusion in my heart.

She came here today just to vent her anger. She originally planned to tell him about this matter, so that he could also taste the feeling of waiting for death in despair.

But now, she suddenly changed her mind.

Let's not talk about it.

And give him some hope, lest he have the idea of ​​committing suicide in despair, and waste the death sentence prepared for him in vain.

Xu Ying took one last look at the mad man, turned around and walked away slowly.

Enough is out of breath, and it will be disgusting to watch it any longer.

"Xu Ying...you wait for me! Wait for me!"

"I will definitely send you sisters to reunite as soon as possible!"

Xia Han's almost crazy voice came from behind, and Xu Ying never looked back.

She walked out of the dungeon step by step, out of the darkness.

Just at dusk, half of the sky was covered with the crimson sunset glow, as if to dye the whole world into a huge warm orange light.

Looking at this invisible "lamp", Xu Ying slowly exhaled.

Although it was dusk at this time, for her, it was a brand new beginning.

After thanking Jidong and saying goodbye, she went back to Shangyu Pavilion and had a long talk with the female shopkeeper.

However, when he returned to the backyard and the room he lived in, he just pushed the door open when he heard a voice coming from the dark room.

"Miss Xu."

The voice seemed somewhat ethereal in the dark night.

Unprepared, Xu Ying was startled and almost screamed out.

The reason why he was able to calm down in time was because the voice was familiar enough——

"Miss Xu?" She asked tentatively in a low voice.

Even though she has adapted to the light in front of her eyes, no matter how she looks in this room, she doesn't look like someone.

And I can't even hear the sound of breathing--

Could it be that she had hallucinations because she was always looking forward to meeting Miss Xu?

The next moment, the voice sounded again dispelled her imagination.

"it's me."

As the voice fell, the room suddenly became brighter.

Ah Zhu covered the lampshade of the gauze lamp, and put the fire pocket back into her bosom.

Seeing the masters and servants dressed in black sitting and standing at the table, Xu Yinglue reacted for a moment, and hurriedly closed the door.

"You came here uninvited, please forgive me." Xu Mingyi said.

"Ms. Xu came to see me. I'm too happy." Xu Ying walked over and said sincerely: "It's me who has never thanked Ms. Xu face to face. It's really rude."

She knew that Miss Xu came to see her in this way of hiding from others because she had no choice.

Xu Mingyi naturally understood her concerns.

The reason why Xu Ying didn't go to see her was because she didn't want the Xia family to notice that she was involved in Xia Han's case.

Of course, there is another reason—Ms. Xu can't climb over the wall.

In the final analysis, both of them are out of consideration, and they are not stupid, so there is no need to explain some words.

"Miss Xu, sit down and talk." Seeing that Xu Ying was just standing, Xu Mingyi said with a smile.

It seems that she is the master of this room.

Xu Ying hesitated for a moment before sitting down.

"I don't know when Miss Xu came here?"

"It's not long since we arrived."

"Then Miss Xu can have dinner before she comes?" Xu Ying asked again, with a hint of concern in addition to being respectful and polite.

Xu Mingyi nodded.

"The Shrimp Dumplings I ate at Qingfeng Building." She smiled and said, "It's delicious. Miss Xu can try it when she is free in the future."

Delicious food is one of the best things in the world. Although he can't speak, it can bring comfort to people's body and mind.

Sensing the kindness in the girl's words, Xu Ying responded with a smile: "Then I'll try it tomorrow."

The two looked at each other and smiled, then Xu Mingyi asked: "I don't know what plans Ms. Xu has in the future?"

I ran in the hospital all day today, and I finally finished it. I will slowly resume regular updates in a few days~
