Chapter 237: Unanimous External Stance

d the iron cage. Inside, a young boy had heavy shackles on his feet.Under the auctioneer's instruction, a young servant carried an iron box onto the stage and carefully stood three steps away from it,...Just as Xu Shirui and Tang Muqin were kneading the noodles, Qingxuan, who didn't need to pretend to be a maidservant serving beside Xu Shirui, was already sitting in the private room on the third floor again. 。NanGong Ye pulled her into his arms, then reached out with a long arm to take the human skin mask off Qingxuan's face. 。A breathtakingly beautiful face appeared before Nangong Ye. 。Because of this embrace, Qing Xuan's cheeks flushed slightly, her eyes brimming with tears, like peach blossoms in early spring, swaying with the wind, alluring and captivating. Everything around them seemed to dim in comparison. 。Although Nangong Ye still wore a human skin mask, his deep black eyes were as cold and brilliant as a piece of black jade. 。

A wave of heat sprayed onto Qingxuan's cheeks, making them tingle and feel numb.

Nangong Ye's gentle voice, with a hint of laughter, echoed in the room: "Even dressed as a maid, Xuan'er is alluring." 。"If Nangong Ye didn't say anything, Qingxuan's face wouldn't be so red. But the moment he spoke, her cheeks flushed even deeper." 。

Qingxuan wanted to struggle out of Nangong Ye's arms.

Unexpectedly, Nangong Ye held her even tighter.

At this time, Nangong Ye was like a plaster, sticking to her, no matter how hard she tried to shake him off. 。

Qingxuan was just about to speak her mind, but Nangong Ye buried his head in her shoulder.

Nangong Ye's voice became very light

Nangong Ye: "Xuan'er, just now I almost couldn't help but twist Xu Shirui's neck." 。Wouldn't you find me... scary Even repulsive like this 。Qingxuan was taken aback. 。Feeling Qing Xuan's body stiffen, Nangong Ye thought it was because of his words, Qing Xuan had begun to be afraid. 。

Nan Gong Ye seemed to be afraid that Qing Xuan would run away the next moment, holding her even tighter.

Before Qingxuan could speak, Nangong Ye continued, "Qingxuan, if you dislike my behavior, I can change..."

Nangong Ye's words had not yet fallen when Qingxuan interrupted, "I won't dislike..."

"How could I possibly hate him" Nan Gong Ye only then raised his head to meet Qing Xuan's gaze. 。

Nan Gong Ye: "Xuan'er, is what you said true"

A mixture of delight and hesitation filled Nan Gong Ye's deep eyes. He couldn't help but worry that Qing Xuan was merely comforting him.

Only Qingxuan nodded.

Qingxuan: "For such a small matter, why would I lie to you"

Qingxuan reached out and took back Nangong Ye's human skin mask, and like coaxing a child, gently patted Nangong Ye's handsome face

Qingxuan: “My husband, this world is all about the strong preying on the weak.” 。When facing wicked people, one should absolutely not have compassion. 。Your compassion for her will one day turn into a blade and stab you in the back. 。Before this, Xu Shirui wished I was dead. Today, she doesn't know that the person she wants to burn is me. 。but if she knew the maid was me, don't even talk about a cup of tea 。Xu Shirui probably wants to pour a pot of boiling water directly on my head. 。

"She dares!" Nan Gong Ye's face darkened instantly.

If Xu Shi Rui dared, he would torture her to death and then turn her bones to ashes.

Seeing that Nan Gong Ye wasn't as worried as before that she would dislike him, Qing Xuan secretly let out a breath of relief. 。

Qingxuan: “Of course she wouldn’t dare”

I just want to say that with someone as vicious as her, she harbored murderous intentions towards me. It's perfectly natural for my husband to want to twist her neck. 。If my husband were the one who was set up, with the other party trying to kill him and even almost burning him. 。Although I won't snap your neck, I will drain you of every drop of blood, leaving you a withered husk. 。From Qingxuan's eyes, one could see that she wasn't saying this to comfort him, but it was what she truly thought. 。

Qingxuan then gently stroked Nangong Ye's face.

Qingxuan: “After spending so much time with my husband, Qingxuan naturally understands his character and disposition.”

So, my husband, don't worry, I will never hate you. 。

Qingxuan said playfully, winking at Nangong Ye: "After all, you are the husband I have chosen. Of course, as a couple, we should be united and present a unified front!"p, the sky outside was bright.Qingxuan just opened her eyes, and the first thing she saw was a pair of deep eyes.Nangong Ye's voice was like jade steeped in an ice spring, cold and long, yet it felt a...
