Wishful Things

Chapter 46 The Cruelty of Human Nature

The wicked little girl took two steps closer to him.

Wu Chao resisted the urge to retreat.

"His Royal Highness was murdered tonight, there are clues to the truth, I would like to ask Mr. Wu to ask the Empress to pay attention to it." Xu Mingyi's voice was extremely low, and his brows were serious.

Wu Chao frowned slightly.

"Miss Xu thinks...the truth will be covered up?"

"The other party has the ability to attack the prince in the palace, and his identity must be unusual."

It is unknown whether to investigate or not, and whether the palace will choose to disclose or cover up after the investigation.

She didn't want to just wait for the palace to give an unknown result.

The two of them were only one step away, Wu Chao looked at the pretty girl in front of him, and said in an unclear tone: "But this matter doesn't seem to have anything to do with the Duke of Zhen's mansion—"

The implication is that there should be a limit to nosy business.

If he could understand that she had come forward to save the prince before, then now that she took the initiative to investigate the truth of the prince's murder, he really couldn't see through it.

Xu Mingyi didn't mind the disapproval in his words.

Looking at it right now, the other party may have other schemes to murder the crown prince, either for the crown prince's dispute, or to blame King Jing's son, but no matter what the scheme is, it seems that it has nothing to do with the government of the town .

It is really not wise to intervene in a matter that has nothing to do with oneself on the cusp of the storm.

In her last life, she also never imagined that this matter would involve the Duke of Zhen's Mansion in the future.

Although there have been changes this time and Prince Jing escaped unharmed, the lessons of her previous life made her understand that she should not let go of any noteworthy incident.

"It's a big deal after all. There is no connection at this time, but it will be difficult to say in the future."

She didn't hide her true thoughts: "Knowing more now is useless for a while, and it's better that I don't have the slightest preparation to deal with the sunrise."

Wu Chao was silent for a moment.

A little girl is so prepared for a rainy day, she seems to be much more vigilant than many elders in high positions.

"Of course, the empress is in the deep palace. Although she is the master of the harem, she must be more careful in everything. My original intention was to ask the empress to pay attention to it, not to investigate anything deliberately, or to find nothing. It’s okay to come.”

Xu Mingyi looked at him, his tone relaxed a little, and his eyes were also frank: "If you really find any clues, Mr. Wu can tell me, or you don't have to tell me."

It was she who took the liberty to ask for help first, and there was no reason to force people to agree.

Besides, she also knew that the person in front of her seemed a bit scattered, but she was actually defensive by nature, and she was not a very talkative person.

Wu Chao was very puzzled when he heard this.

——If you find a clue, can you tell her or not?

Then she said this big circle, what is the picture?

"Is Miss Xu asking Wu to help, or is she trying to remind Wu?"

A little girl like her is so caring, he will naturally pay more attention after hearing this, even more than this matter, he will think more about it in the future--

She met him twice, and she reminded him twice.

What he said just now, after thinking about it, seemed to have the meaning of telling his aunt to be careful in the palace?

What is this girl Xu's plan?

He looked at her strangely, Xu Mingyi smiled and said: "Since Mr. Wu has said so, then let's have it. If Mr. Wu is willing to tell me at that time, I will be very grateful. If you don't want to tell me, then the Wu family At least for the insiders, the Xu and Wu families are not all ignorant."

Anything is better than the truth being kept hidden.

Of course, beautiful words are beautiful words, if she really wants to learn something from the Wu family in the future, it will always be easier than looking it up herself.

No matter how the account is calculated, it is not a loss.

Wu Chao has a keen mind, and besides, she didn't deliberately hide her intentions, so naturally these little schemes couldn't escape his eyes——

"Miss Xu has never even tried to find out what kind of person I am, so she shared this with me, don't you think it's too impulsive?"

Just based on her performance in front of everyone after saving the prince in Jiaotai Palace and just now, it can be seen that this is a very good performer.

But right now, in front of him, there is nothing to hide——

Kindly reminded, the words faintly revealed a meaning that the Xu and Wu families do not distinguish between each other...

The girl said frankly: "There is no need to test, I can trust Mr. Wu."

Wu Chao suppressed the horror in his heart.

"I only met Miss Xu twice, why does Miss Xu trust me so much?"

Is there any reason for a girl who is smart and good at acting to let go of her disguise in front of him and trust him without reason?

How dare you say that you are not happy with him?

The girl who frightened him seemed to think about it for a while, and then said: "Probably because I think Mr. Wu looks good-looking, he is a good person."

This is the truth.

In her eyes, Wu Chao is indeed a good person. Sometimes, although the mouth is cold and hard, the heart is kind.

It is precisely because of this that she feels extremely guilty about the matter of killing the other party, whether it is her responsibility or not.

"..." Wu Chao didn't quite understand what kind of complicated expression he had at this time.

I have heard many praises for his handsomeness, but this is the first time for Mian Shan.

It seems that Miss Xu has no intention of admitting her feelings.

That's fine, we can give each other some leeway to save face.

But he is not the kind of person who knows the other party's intentions, but still drags the other party's fantasy.

What's more, to be honest, he admired the intelligence of this girl Xu.

But the bad thing is that Miss Xu is obviously too obsessed with the relationship between men and women. Once she likes one, she will forget about her guard - this is not a good thing.

It's time for her to experience the cruelty of human nature.

"People's hearts are unpredictable. Ms. Xu judges whether a person is good or bad and whether he is trustworthy or not based on his good looks. It is too rash. It is very easy to suffer and be deceived."

The young man clasped his hands behind his back and said with a cold expression: "Wu can agree to help Miss Xu, but Wu also has one condition—"

"Master Wu, please tell me."

Xu Mingyi was happy to ask him to ask for conditions, so he accepted the other party's help with a good heart and peace of mind.

Taking advantage of his height, the young man looked down at her, frowned his heroic brows slightly, and said indifferently: "These days, the rumors about Wu's greed for Miss Xu's beauty are all based on nothing. Miss Xu, don't take it seriously. Wu Mou didn't treat Miss Xu differently, not in the past, and never will in the future."

He knew that his blunt words would even embarrass the other party, but only by saying this can the other party cut off all thoughts. He has very experience in this point.

Xu Mingyi was stunned.

This is... his 'condition'?

Wait, what does this person mean?

Could it be that she is suspecting that she is interested in him?

No, when the other party said such words, it seemed that she was no longer simply suspicious, but concluded that she had something wrong with him...

It came earlier than the previous life.

While Xu Mingyi was helpless, an old incident suddenly appeared in front of his eyes——

Following "What should Miss Xu do if she likes me", Wu Chongxi has another worry - "What should Miss Xu do if she is in love and easily deceived by others"...
