Chapter 869 I kind of like you
Xie Jingchi frowned: "No, that's on the territory of the Li clan, it's too dangerous."
Shen Shuyi said nothing, just looked at her calmly.
Xie Jingchi said again: "Not only are poisonous insects prevalent in the Li clan, but they also have the art of poisoning insects. If you are not careful, you will be poisoned by the insects."
"Even if I was infected with a poisonous insect, you would save me, right?" Shen Shuyi interrupted him.
Xie Jingchi was speechless, but still objected: "No, it's still too risky. Besides, you don't know martial arts, so it won't help if you go."
Shen Shuyi shook his head: "But there are some things that I need to see with my own eyes. Moreover, if I can't rescue Li Ye this time, he might not live long after alerting the enemy."
Xie Jingchi narrowed his eyes, and there was a hint of darkness in his narrow and sharp eyes: "Do you care so much about his life or death?"
Shen Shuyi nodded: "Li Ye is a crucial part of conquering the Li clan."
It was rare that Xiao Tingshan was courting death by killing the Sixth Elder and Li Tian. Since she had uncovered the conspiracy, she naturally had to seize the opportunity.
Seeing Xie Jingchi remained silent, Shen Shuyi looked at him and said calmly: "Whether you agree or not, I will go. If you are unwilling to pass on the message to the prince for me, I will go to see the prince in person tomorrow."
Xie Jingchi's eyes were deep: "What if the prince doesn't agree?"
Shen Shuyi said calmly: "The prince is brave and good at fighting, and he is good at making decisions. I think he will agree."
Xie Jingchi laughed angrily: "According to you, he is so good, so I can't compare to him?"
After hearing this, Shen Shuyi realized that he seemed a little unhappy. Xie Jingchi pursed his lips tightly and stared at her without saying a word, which inexplicably made Shen Shuyi feel a little guilty.
But, what is she weak about?
But she seemed to never know how to coax people, otherwise, she wouldn't have been in such a tense relationship with Xiao Tingshan in her previous life.
She is a person who will definitely do what she decides to do.
She thought that as long as she told Xie Jingchi the truth, there would be no other problems, but she didn't expect that he would still get angry...
Shen Shuyi tried to speak: "That's not what I meant. Do you know that you are worried about my safety?"
Xie Jingchi snorted coldly and turned his head away, obviously ignoring Shen Shuyi's meaning.
Shen Shuyi was in a dilemma. So, how to comfort her?
She put her face close to Xie Jingchi and softened her voice: "Do you want to go to bed? It's quite late."
Xie Jingchi sneered, "You've made me so upset, but you can still sleep?"
Shen Shuyi: "..."
This was not the first time Shen Shuyi knew about his pettiness and vindictiveness, but it was only now that she felt a headache when he applied it to herself.
"I promise you, I will come back alive? No, I promise you, I will come back alive and safe?" Shen Shuyi asked tentatively, thinking that if she couldn't coax him anymore, she would have to give up.
Well, she is really a person who gives up easily.
The next moment, Xie Jingchi pulled her over, pressed her on the table, and leaned over to kiss her.
"You'll feel uncomfortable if you don't make me angry, huh?" He stared at her with some irritation in his eyes.
The poisonous insect was no different from anything else. Once she was poisoned, he would be really powerless against those things, and the last thing he wanted was to put her in danger.
But he also understood that she had always been different from other women, and she would definitely accomplish what she wanted to do.
If he blocked her everywhere, he would only push her away from him.
But no one knows what it feels like to see the person you care about most in danger.
Shen Shuyi hugged his neck and kissed his lips. His lips were slightly cool and the color was beautiful, with a beauty of fullness of blood and energy, yet also a bit of indifference.
"Xie Jingchi, I think... I like you a little bit."
Shen Shuyi didn't want to admit it, but couldn't help but admit it.
She thought that she would never love anyone again in her life.
If such sincere feelings can be ruthlessly trampled upon, how reliable can the so-called love be?
But she was inexplicably attracted to him. She couldn't tell when it started, but she seemed to care about him more than she thought.
She would uncontrollably want to be close to him and enjoy having skin contact with him.
She was afraid that he would get hurt and die in battle.
Even though she had been with Xiao Tingshan for nearly ten years in her previous life, she seemed to have never had these feelings.
No, maybe she had from the very beginning. Xiao Tingshan was in poor health and she worried every day, always afraid that he would suffer from illness and have a hard time every day. She also felt sorry for him for exhausting himself and trying so hard just to survive.
But Xiao Tingshan and Xie Jingchi are different to her.
Xiao Tingshan was like the most ferocious leech in the world, with the most harmless appearance, but he was madly sucking every drop of her blood until she was completely exhausted.
And Xie Jingchi... he was like the brightest light in the world, and he made her life more vivid and happier.
This one sentence seemed to have stimulated a nerve in Xie Jingchi, giving him an outlet to vent his most crazily and passionately suppressed emotions.
He tore open Shen Shuyi's dress and carried her around the waist to the couch.
The night was silent. The tall figure enveloped her in shadow, and the two of them merged into one with the night.
Shen Shuyi closed his eyes and whispered, "You agreed, didn't you?"
Xie Jingchi just felt that Shen Shuyi was really bad, so bad that he would do anything to achieve his goal, even using the beauty trap.
But he couldn't say no.

The next day, Shen Shuyi slept until noon.
Shen Shuyi has now been able to ignore the teasing looks from the maids.
There's no way. When I go out, I have to give myself face. As long as I don't feel embarrassed, no one will feel embarrassed for me.
Near lunchtime, Shen Shuyi saw Xie Jingchi coming back wearing a crimson purple suit.
He was already tall and straight, with fair skin, and now he looked even more handsome and extraordinary.
Shen Shuyi couldn't help but take a few more glances: "It's so sexy and beautiful."
Xie Jingchi chuckled: "You have good taste."
"How is it? What did the prince say?" Shen Shuyi's eyes were full of anticipation.
Xie Jingchi raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "Okay, but I'll go with you."
Shen Shuyi was stunned for a moment: "What are you going to do? You don't know martial arts..."
Xie Jingchi's eyes gradually became dangerous: "Madam, do you dislike your husband and will it hinder you?"
"No, I... I'm just worried about your safety." Shen Shuyi's voice became a little softer. After all, when this role came to her, she truly understood Xie Jingchi's worries.
But this way, she seemed to have even less reason to refuse.
Forget it, just go.
They had all managed to hide from Xiao Heyu's overwhelming pursuit. Shen Shuyi didn't believe that he would die in a small Li tribe this time.
"Then when do we leave?" Shen Shuyi cleverly changed the subject.
"Three days later." Xie Jingchi's eyes were sharp.
Shen Shuyi quickly asked Jinzhu to take out the box she carried with her, which contained the sleeve arrows and rings made for her by Mo Yu. Shen Shuyi generously shared them with Xie Jingchi, and then began to arrange for people to prepare some portable pills and powders.
Shen Shuyi would not fight an unprepared battle. If she went deep into the enemy's territory, she would naturally have to make full preparations.
