Release My Acupoints First

Although Bai Xianyu was already prepared and had vaguely guessed it, she still could not help but tremble when Xie Xingyun said it.

The young man’s voice was obscure and difficult to understand. She chose to remain silent.

However, even though it was pitch-black in front of her, Bai Xianyu could feel Xie Xingyun’s gaze lingering on her body with a hint of scrutiny and danger.

“Tell me, if I turn you into her…”

Bai Xianyu felt goosebumps all over her body.

What did he mean by turning her into “her”?

Fortunately, that seemed to be a whim of the young man. After a moment of silence, he moved his hand away from the girl’s eyes.

Bai Xianyu regained her sight and tried her best to remain calm. “What… nonsense are you talking about?”

Xie Xingyun did not answer and kept a distance from her. However, there was only space for one person between the two of them. The strong pressure from the man seemed to be real, making the space seem to be cramped.

He looked up and suddenly asked, “Are you willing to marry Lin Xingjian?”

Bai Xianyu’s body was still frozen and she felt a little uncomfortable. “Release my acupoints first.”

His slender fingers quickly swept across the acupuncture points with a familiar force.

Bai Xianyu flexed her wrists and snapped at him, “What does it have to do with you?”

At some point, the carriage had already left the bustling city. One could vaguely hear the sound of the wind whistling past.

Xie Xingyun played with the jade pendant at his waist. “How is he better than me?”

He thought about it for three whole days, but he could not think of the reason for Bai Xianyu to reject him and choose Lin Xingjian.

Bai Xianyu bit her lips.

“Young Marquis, at the end of the day, the two of us can’t be said to be close, right? Even if we went to the same academy when we were young, we didn’t even speak much. Don’t you think it’s abrupt of you to suddenly ask me for marriage?”

Xie Xingyun said, “So you think my actions are abrupt, so you rejected me?”

“No.” Bai Xianyu turned her head and could feel the man’s deep gaze on the lateral side of her face. “To put it bluntly, the reason I rejected you was because I don’t like you.”

The man’s body stiffened for a moment.

Even though he knew that she was not the Bai Xianyu from his previous life, when she used such a familiar expression, tone, and straightforward words, his heart still felt as if it had been stung.

It was terrifyingly quiet in the carriage.

After Bai Xianyu finished speaking, she lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked outside. It was the way back to the General’s Manor.

She felt slightly more at ease.

Then she looked at the tall man.

Xie Xingyun closed his eyes slightly. His eyelashes were as thick as crow feathers, his eyebrows were deep, his nose bridge was high, and his cold face made him look distant and noble.

However, his eyelashes were closed, and the emotions in his eyes were completely concealed. No one could understand him, and he actually felt a little fragile.

Bai Xianyu was stunned.

Why did she feel that Xie Xingyun was very sad now?

Would a proud son of heaven like him be sad because she rejected the marriage?

She looked away silently. “Young Marquis, you’re very good.”

Xie Xingyun glanced at her.

“It’s just that I don’t have the fortune.”

He did not reply. The heavy atmosphere in the car was suffocating.

The carriage finally stopped in front of the Kingdom-Stabilizing General’s Manor.

Bai Xianyu did not move. Instead, she looked at Xie Xingyun carefully.

“Young Marquis, I’ve arrived. Then…”

“Aren’t you curious who this ‘she’ I’m talking about is?” he interrupted.

Bai Xianyu curled her fingers slightly. “…Who?”

She was also a little curious about how Xie Xingyun would introduce her now.
