After the failed attempt to pretend to be dead, the sickly child was favored by the treacherous mini

Xia Xin neither agreed nor refused. Her eyes looked forward calmly, without a trace of special emotion.

She has made her attitude clear, she has made her decision, and she no longer wants the person.

Xia Hong is the king, so from now on, whatever Xia Hong says will naturally be the truth.

Xia Hong liked Xia Xin's tactfulness. He always liked to deceive the eyes of the world with superficial harmony: "That's good. When you return to the mansion, you can still be a close family."

After putting an end to the matter of Shen Jinmo, Xia Hongcai began to look at Xia Ling, who was crawling on the ground in confusion because Zhong Luoyue was taken away.

"Today's matter can be properly resolved, thanks to the Crown Prince for informing me of the matter in time, otherwise your quarrel may have lasted for a long time."

Xia Ling was surprised at the unexpected turn of events, but he did not forget to agree with Xia Hong: "A harmonious family is the foundation of everything. It is my duty to make the royal sister and Wang Heng live in harmony."

Xia Hong raised his hand, and Eunuch Lin helped Shen Jinmo up.

"Now that we have finished talking about family affairs, let me talk about state affairs."

"Since Xiao Mo joined the Imperial Guards, he has not only been diligent and conscientious, but he has also taken the lead in punishing those who have damaged the reputation of the previous emperor. I will make the decision to promote Xiao Mo to the rank of fifth-rank sword-bearing imperial guard."

"I thank the emperor for his grace." Shen Jinmo bowed to express his gratitude.

This kind of promotion is actually of no significance, Shen Jinmo still has to do the same things.

It is this insignificance that reveals Xia Hong's attitude towards the matter.

Xia Hong was quite satisfied with Shen Jinmo's methods, but he was not satisfied with the results Shen Jinmo delivered after this incident.

But if Shen Jinmo, who had endured hiding in the mountains for more than ten years, completely severed the mother-son relationship because of the suffering in the ancestral hall for half a month, it would be untenable.

With Xia Hong's temporary praise, Shen Jinmo completely eliminated Xia Hong's chance of suspicion, so he had to choose the latter.

The more critical the moment, the more Shen Jinmo could not be impatient for success.

The family of three walked out of the Golden Palace. Shen Jun held an umbrella for Xia Xin with one hand and held Xia Xin's waist with the other hand, holding Xia Xin firmly in his arms with the attitude of an absolute guardian.

Both husband and wife practiced martial arts and always walked fast. Shen Jinmo's steps became heavy after kneeling for several days, and he walked farther and farther away. The distance between the three of them was so wide that it seemed like a chasm. No matter how hard Shen Jinmo tried, he could not fill the gap.

Not long after turning a corner, Shen Jinmo completely lost sight of the two people's backs.

The father who would carry the poisoned Shen Jinmo around the palace to look for the imperial physician, and the mother who would retreat again and again to protect Shen Jinmo, were pushed away by Shen Jinmo himself.

From then on, the only people standing in front of Shen Jinmo were Princess Pingnan and Marquis Wu'an.

The midday sun was so scorching that it was hotter than all the pain he had suffered over the years. It seemed to take away all his energy and spirit as it shone on Shen Jinmo. Shen Jinmo wanted to hide, but he couldn't.

His breathing became increasingly rapid, and sweat poured down from Shen Jinmo like rain. Shen Jinmo felt that he would soon be burned into a soulless mummy.

Shen Jinmo is not qualified to die. Shen Jinmo wants to save himself. Shen Jinmo wants to live.

The steps in search of the disappearing figure changed direction, and the bloated steps suddenly became light.

Entering from the main gate of the palace school and walking straight into the classroom, the huge classroom was empty.

Xie Nanxing has left.

Shen Jinmo didn't tell Xie Nanxing that he would come today, so Xie Nanxing didn't wait for him.

Shen Jinmo did not tell his parents whether he would return home, so his parents would choose to give up on him after accumulating enough disappointment.

No one will wait for someone unconditionally forever.

"Shen Jinmo."

The clear voice, with a familiar soothing power, entered Shen Jinmo's ears.

He raised his head slowly from Xie Nanxing's seat. There was a person standing at the classroom door against the light, and Shen Jinmo could not see the person's outline clearly.

But Shen Jinmo felt that the person should be smiling at him. That smile might be attentive, might be cute, but most likely it was full of expectation.

The man should also be white and small, with his head almost reaching his shoulders.

The food that man cooked was delicious, and he would wait for him to come home every day.

That person turned around today and picked up the unwanted Shen Jinmo.

The man turned the scorching sun into warm sunshine, and walked towards Shen Jinmo with a light that belonged only to Shen Jinmo and would never hurt Shen Jinmo.

"Why are you sitting at my desk?" Xie Nanxing stretched out the last syllable and his voice became softer as he slowly walked in front of Shen Jinmo.

Shen Jinmo sat in Xie Nanxing's seat.

That person was Xie Nanxing.

He anxiously reached out and held the hand that Xie Nanxing handed over, wrapped Xie Nanxing's entire hand tightly, and then held it tightly.

This hand is just like Xie Nanxing's person, soft and small, but has nothing to do with weakness.

These hands can pull the bloated Shen Jinmo back to the world from the abyss.

There was desire in her eyes and a weak voice: "Xie Nanxing, can you take me home?"

Shen Jinmo now only has Xie Nanxing.

"Shen Jinmo, I'm here to take you home."

No need to be thirsty, no need to show weakness, Xie Nanxing came here just for Shen Jinmo.

The dry torso was replenished by these words. In an instant, Shen Jinmo absorbed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and grew into a person who could exist between heaven and earth.

After leaving the academy, the two walked along the palace road. Their steps were quite slow, slower than Xie Nanxing's usual pace.

"Xie Nanxing, why did you leave without waiting for me?"

For the first time, Shen Jinmo spoke to Xie Nanxing with complaints and grievances.

One hand was grasped, and the other hand also covered the back of Shen Jinmo's hand.

He was usually a fiery person, but at this moment the back of his hands were strangely cold.

Xie Nanxing felt that Shen Jinmo must have suffered a great injustice again.

"I'm afraid you're hungry, so I want to go home and make you lunch."

Shen Jinmo heard what Xie Nanxing said, believed what Xie Nanxing said, and became obsessed with what Xie Nanxing said.

Wherever he is, Xie Nanxing will run there.

"Xie Nanxing, I might be getting sick."

"It's okay. Everyone gets sick. Let's ask a doctor to take a look. We'll be fine soon."

I felt at ease, but the next moment I began to feel confused again.

After wrapping both of Xie Nanxing's hands tightly in his palms, Shen Jinmo dared to ask tentatively: "Xie Nanxing, what should I do if I get sick and never get better?"

Xie Nanxing frowned and immediately prepared to pull his hand out.

I tried to pull it out several times, but couldn't.

"Why did you take your hand back?"

The palace gate was right in front of him. Shen Jinmo paused under the guards' gaze and insisted on a promise: "I have always been bad. I am a bad person. Are you going to leave me?"

Not caring about the strange looks from the palace guards, Xie Nanxing softly promised: "I want both the good and the bad."

Seeing that Shen Jinmo still didn't move, Xie Nanxing continued to explain: "I pulled my hand away because I wanted to feel if you had a fever."

"Oh." Shen Jinmo replied sullenly, and took Xie Nanxing's hand to touch his forehead: "Are you sick?"

The temperature from her palms was scorching, but Xie Nanxing's words were so gentle that they could drip water: "I'm sick, but it's okay, you'll be fine after taking medicine at home."

"Just tell me what you want, but don't think about leaving me." He emphasized seriously: "I won't be sick forever. I said I will protect you."
