When she was the only one left in the room, Xu Mingxi fell into deep thought again.

When she woke up this morning, she found that she was reborn.

Reborn five years ago!

At the current point in time, he was probably instigated by Xu Baiyu to cooperate with Qi Wang Qin Zhaolie, and used himself as bait to lure Qin Yuechuan into a trap and assassinate him.

It’s just that she didn’t seem to fall into a coma in her previous life, so it’s not clear what her current situation is.

Whether Qin Yuechuan was also like in his previous life, physically and mentally injured and in danger, she didn't dare to think about it, nor did she have the courage to ask. He didn't come, he must be... seriously injured!

Thinking of this, her chest felt sore and swollen, and the area near her heart felt as if it were being pricked by a needle.

The pain was so intense that it seemed that even breathing was becoming difficult. The silk quilt was unconsciously tightly grasped by the hand, and he muttered to himself:

"Why, why not earlier, even one day earlier, Ah She... I'm sorry... I'm sorry"

The more I think about it, the sadder I feel.

Self-blame and guilt surged in my heart, until I felt wetness on my arms, and then I realized that tears had been flowing down my cheeks like a silent river.

"No, now is not the time to cry. We should think about how to make up for our mistakes. Ah She must still be waiting for me. He must need me now. I want to go to Prince Rong's Mansion to accompany him..."

Just as she was about to call Jin'er to dress and change her clothes, there was a sudden "knock knock" sound outside the window:

"Miss Xu, are you there?"

It seems to be the voice of Ah She's personal guard...

After raising the window, Qingyang's figure came into view. Xu Mingxi's pupils shrank and he cried out unconsciously: "Qingyang!? You...are not dead"

People who practice martial arts have excellent hearing, so Qingyang naturally heard her low exclamation. His brows were tightly furrowed, his face full of black lines, and he was extremely displeased.

I secretly complained in my heart: Why is this Miss Xu cursing people?

Taking a deep breath, thinking that if nothing unexpected happened, this would be... Bah! If nothing unexpected happened, this would be the last time I would come to look for this Second Miss Xu. From now on, we should keep our distance from each other.

He took out his purse and handed it to Xu Mingxi, who was still in a daze, and said respectfully: "Second Miss Xu, this is what the master asked me to return to you. The master said that from now on, you and him will have a clean break and live your own lives.

Things will be fine, he will handle the cancellation of the engagement himself, so please don't worry.

I have conveyed the message to you. I will take my leave now."

After hearing this, Xu Mingxi was stunned as if struck by lightning.

The bridge is for the bridge and the road is for the road?

Break off the engagement?

Wait a minute, this has never happened in my previous life!

What happened during my coma that made Ah She want to break off the engagement with me? Was it a test?

Seeing Qingyang was about to leave, Xu Mingxi hurriedly called him: "Qingyang, wait, is he... okay? Is he... injured?"

Qingyang really couldn't stand it anymore. Cursing him was fine, but why did this Second Miss Xu curse her master to get hurt? Could she not bear to see her master being okay?!

Then he said seriously, "The master is fine and not injured."

Xu Mingxi was stunned at first, then he was overjoyed. He was not injured! In this life, he had never been seriously injured! Great!

Without caring about her joy, she asked again: "But why did he suddenly break off the engagement with me?"

Qingyang frowned even more tightly, thinking that this Second Miss Xu was really weird.

You resisted the master's pursuit before, but now that he has decided to let you go, you come asking me why?

However, subordinates never speculate on their masters' thoughts, and only replied with a vague answer: "You should know why the engagement was cancelled, Second Miss Xu."

Xu Mingxi's heart skipped a beat, "I..."

No longer paying attention to Xu Mingxi's guilty look, Qingyang turned and left.

As if all his strength had been drained away, Xu Mingxi sat dejectedly on the low couch, holding the indigo purse in his hand, staring blankly into the void, not knowing what to do:

"How could this happen? He wasn't injured, but instead wanted to break off the engagement with me. Why... Could it be that in this life, he discovered that it was me... and Qin Zhaolie..."

She didn't dare to think about how he knew it, and how disappointed he would be with her after knowing it. She covered her cheeks with her hands in pain and sobbed softly: "It's my fault, it's all my fault..."

"Miss, what's wrong with you? Why are you crying?"

When Jin'er, the personal maid, came in with the medicine, she saw Xu Mingxi crying. She ran over in a hurry and took out an embroidered handkerchief to wipe her tears.

"Miss, please don't cry. You have just recovered from a serious illness. Be careful not to hurt your eyes."

After Jin'er's consolation, Xu Mingxi finally stopped crying. She adjusted herself internally, wiped her slightly red and swollen eyes with an embroidered handkerchief, and then calmly asked Jin'er:

"Have the clothes from Huashang Pavilion and the headgear from Yulan Pavilion been delivered?"

Since it has already happened, regret can't change anything.

Now, all we can do is make amends. Fortunately, it’s not too late.

Ah She must have been acting on impulse. As long as he admits his mistake and takes actual actions to make amends, there should be a great chance for him to repair the relationship.

After all, even at the last moment of his previous life, he was still willing to sacrifice for himself...

As long as they sincerely repent to him, make amends to him, and love him well, they should be able to return to the way they were before...

The Mid-Autumn Festival banquet is coming soon, but I have to meet Ah She before that and explain everything to him in person... and there are some things I must remind him of.

"Miss, the clothes and headgear will be ready tomorrow. Also, this was just delivered by the people from Prince Qi's side."

As Jin'er spoke, she handed an envelope to Xu Mingxi.

Xu Mingxi frowned slightly, took the envelope, took out the letter paper, unfolded it and read it roughly, her face became even colder.

How could she forget about this? She had arranged this at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet in her previous life. However, this time, she couldn't do as he wished.

Qin Zhaolie, you must accept my return gift.

"Jin'er, hand my reply to the servant in Prince Qi's mansion later."

Rong Wangfu

After Qingyang returned the purse, he reported the personal information of Xu Xinyue that he had found out to Qin Yuechuan in detail.

"Xu Xinyue is the only daughter of the third branch of the Xu family. She is the third child in the Xu family. It is said that her mother was brought back by the third branch master from outside. Although her origins are unknown, she is extremely loved by the third master.

Although he only had one daughter, he still loved her very much. When Xu Xinyue was eleven years old, her mother died, and the third master had no intention of remarrying.

He was away on business and only came back for the New Year, Xu Xinyue's birthday, his wife's death anniversary, and a few days during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

It is said that he was worried that his daughter would be wronged, so all food, expenses, gold and silver jewelry were paid from the private account of Mr. Xu San, and not from the public account of the Xu family. The third room had almost no connection with other rooms, and Xu Xinyue was a girl, so she posed no threat and lived a simple life.

However, when the third master of the Xu family brought his wife back, it seemed that the old lady of the Xu family did not agree because her mother's family was not prominent and unknown.

It was the third master of the Xu family who insisted on marrying her, and they gave birth to a daughter. Later, Lian Xian had no intention of marrying her and went far away to do business.

The old lady was even more angry, so she didn't pay much attention to her granddaughter."

Then he added some other trivial gossip, such as what he likes to eat, what kind of jewelry and clothes he likes, and where he likes to go...

In fact, these are all Xu Xinyue’s personal preferences and he collected them on his own.

Although the master did not say anything, Xu Xinyue was the second girl besides Xu Mingxi that he was asked to inquire about, so there was no guarantee that the master would not have some thoughts.

The more Qingyang thought about it, the more he felt that he was really wise.

Qin Yuechuan thought it was normal at first, but the more he listened, the more confused he became. When he heard Qingyang even say "Xu Xianyue likes cinnabar-colored lip balm and hibiscus-scented powder", he couldn't listen any more and stopped him in a stern voice:

"Stop! What are you asking about? Lip balm, perfume, or anything else. When did I ever let you ask about such information? This is... How disgraceful!"

"Ah... Master, please forgive me. I know I was wrong." Oh, forget it. I'll tell you when you want to ask me next time.

"Go down!"

"Yes, I am resigning."

When Qin Yuechuan was alone in the study, he frowned and fell into deep thought as he looked at the detailed life story of Xu Xinyue on the desk.

"A chirp!"

Xu Xinyue, who was leaning over a red sandalwood carved Ganoderma lucidum painting table, sneezed a few times as if she had sensed something. Xiao Chan hurriedly handed her a cup of hot tea and asked anxiously, "Miss, you have caught a cold. Do you need me to call a doctor?"

"It's okay, no need to call a doctor. Dad must be missing me."

Xiao Chan was delighted when she heard this:

"Yes, it's almost Mid-Autumn Festival, and the master will be back soon. Then the young lady and the master can be together again."

"I received a letter from my father last time, saying that he would bring me a special gift this time."

"Master, every time you bring something, it's something rare. Even I, a servant, have learned a lot from following you, young lady."

"You're just being talkative. Come on, get down to business first and take the herbs I listed on paper out of my little storehouse. I have a use for them."

Xu Xinyue handed the plain white paper with dried ink on it to Xiaochan, who took it and left.

"Although there are still a few herbs that I haven't found, I can still make some painkillers with the ones I have, which can help relieve his pain when he gets sick. I hope there will be good news from Daddy!

Daddy, oh daddy, please come back soon." Xu Xinyue prayed silently in her heart, looking forward to it.
