"You want me to seduce the Crown Prince? Why are you crying now that I've entered the pala

Chapter 83 Don't compare him to a tyrant

"I just feel like I don't recognize you anymore," Xie Cisheng said with a smile, his tone still gentle.

The shy, timid girl who used to be at a loss and unsure how to reciprocate even the slightest kindness from others seems to have disappeared.

The person in front of me had the same face, but was more confident, with warm yet resolute eyes, as if he always knew what he wanted and what he had to do.

The man spoke in a joking tone; Qin Su did not ask him ambiguous questions such as "Which version of yourself do you like?"

She waited for the man to finish speaking before lowering her head, revealing her long eyelashes and beautiful profile: "Actually, he came to see me when he returned to Beijing that day."

Xie Cisheng looked at the girl upon hearing this, knowing that she was referring to the person following behind.

“He said he would make up for the last banquet for me, so he took me to Chunfeng Tower. But when we got there, my sister said one thing and he left me there alone again.”

The girl spoke calmly and easily. The same situation had happened too many times over the years. Because "Qin Sangsang" was considerate and sensible and never complained, people had become accustomed to not considering her thoughts.

For example, the so-called male protagonist of the original work, Murong Jing, was completely ignored.

But Xie Cisheng didn't; his face darkened almost instantly: "He just abandoned you all by himself?"

Qin Su's eyelids trembled slightly: "Yes. I don't have any money on me, so I can't rent a car. I'll have to walk back slowly by myself."

"Why didn't you come to me? Didn't I tell you that you could come to me with any problems you had?"

Xie Cisheng's eyes were filled with heartache; he wished he could go back to that day and properly comfort the little girl who had been wronged again.

Qin Su shook her head, her smile appearing pitiful in the man's eyes: "I forgot."

Xie Cisheng felt a slight pang of sadness. He didn't believe Sangsang would forget; she just didn't want to trouble him.

"That day I walked for a long time before I got home. I thought about a lot of things on the way. I thought, as people grow up, they always have to learn to let go."

"asshole!"

When he heard the girl say such heartbreaking words with a smile, even though he pretended to be grateful, he couldn't help but curse out loud. He glared at the culprit behind him and then said to Qin Su, "Sang Sang is right, it's better to throw away the trash. You did nothing wrong."

Murong Jing kept gritting his teeth and staring at the backs of the two men in front of him, ready to stop them if anything seemed amiss.

To her surprise, she was first met with a cold glare from the man, as if he were some kind of ultimate scoundrel.

Murong Jing: ? ? ?

What are you guys even talking about?!

In that brief moment of distraction, Qin Su boarded the carriage following Xie Ci's words.

Murong Jing tried to chase after it but was blocked by the crowd. By the time the crowd dispersed and he tried again, the carriage was gone.

He panicked instantly: "Sang Sang!"
-
Qin Su followed the male supporting character, going through the same process as that day:

After buying the groceries, they went to Aunt Linghu's house to cook a meal for the children, and then left after waiting for them to return.

The only difference this time is that one person is missing.

Perhaps someone's performance that day was too "outstanding," because even a child asked him, "Sister Sangsang, where did that masked brother from that day go?"

He was brushed off by Qin Su's few words.

After leaving Aunt Linghu's house, the two walked into the alley and saw a disheveled man standing there.

Both of them were stunned.

The system quietly logged in again: [The male lead has been looking for you all afternoon and is almost frantic.]

As if to confirm the system's words, the man—Murong Jing—hurriedly walked over and grabbed Qin Su's hand: "Qin Sangsang, where did you go? Do you know how worried I was when I couldn't find you anywhere? I thought you were lost again! Can't you just give me a break..."

"Let her go!"

Xie Cisheng stepped forward with a dark face and pulled the man's hand away. Murong Jing roared angrily, "Get out of here! This is between her and me, and it's none of your business!" But before he could finish speaking, the girl retorted, "But the young master is also an outsider to me."

The girl's hand touched something, and Murong Jing subconsciously let go of her hand.

"Are you OK."

Xie Cisheng hurriedly stepped forward to separate her from the man, his eyes filled with gloom and wariness as he looked at Murong Jing.

Qin Su: "I'm fine, I'm sorry to have worried you."

Xie Cisheng shook his head, then couldn't help but say, "I didn't expect the young master to be such a reckless person. He's not even as good as Ling Xiao."

Murong Jing, who had been eavesdropping, heard another unfamiliar name and couldn't help but ask, "Who is Ling Xiao?"

But neither of them paid any attention to him.

Qin Su paused for a moment before speaking, her eyes smiling: "Don't compare him to him, he'll get angry if he finds out."

Thinking of Ling Xiao's arrogant and slow-paced manner that day, Xie Cisheng smiled.

Seeing the two of them saying that only they knew the secret, he felt as if he had become the one who was excluded.

This feeling of helplessness, unable to penetrate, made Murong Jing very uncomfortable.

Qin Su and Xie Cisheng continued walking forward. She had errands to run today and wasn't in a hurry to go home, so she asked the man to accompany her.

When the man who had been following behind her, looking dejected, heard her mention "choosing a birthday gift for Father," Murong Jing subconsciously spoke up:
Why didn't you ask me about this?

Shouldn't he be better at it?
To everyone's surprise, the young girl spoke gently: "I have Brother Xie's help, he understands my situation better, and you, young master, can't help much."

Murong Jing felt that these words were somewhat familiar.

"Sangsang, don't ask anymore. Your sister can help me with this. You can't really help much."

Murong Jing paused, then suddenly asked, "Are you taking revenge on me?"

Almost as soon as he spoke, Qin Su felt a pang in her heart, and a familiar bittersweet feeling spread through her.

The more unhappy she became, the gentler her smile grew: "How could you think that way? You haven't done anything to wrong me, why would I want to take revenge on you?"

Murong Jing opened his mouth, wondering if he had truly done nothing wrong to her.
"By the way, you must take the medicine I just gave you, it's very effective..."

Qin Su was quietly explaining to Xie Cisheng that it was a system-produced ointment that was very effective in relieving eye fatigue.

It may look ordinary as a birthday gift for a man, but it's definitely worth the price.

I'm afraid he'll be reluctant to part with the gift "Sang Sang" gave him and it will go to waste.

Xie Cisheng smiled upon hearing this: "Don't worry... be careful!"

The man's expression changed, and he abruptly pushed her aside.

System: [Host, be careful, there's an assassin!]

Qin Su: Huh?

As soon as she turned around, she saw several dark figures appear like ghosts, their long swords flashing with cold light as they thrust towards her.

The man pulled out his folding fan to block the attack, but with a "crack," the fan snapped in two, showing that the other party had intended to kill him.

Without pausing, the assassin swung his sword at Qin Su again.

[Host beware! 】

At that critical moment, a long sword suddenly appeared from the side, blocking the fatal blow for Qin Su—
