After Jiang Qingyue left, Mo Xiao walked to the courtyard and stood opposite Chen Yuan.

"You came."

Mo Xiao looked at Chen Yuan steadily and said something.

Chen Yuan narrowed his eyes and spit out two words: "Explanation."

She gave Mo Xiao a chance, as long as Mo Xiao gave her an acceptable explanation.

Mo Xiao looked at Chen Yuan silently and didn't speak for a long time.

Chen Yuan waited and waited, but still couldn't wait for Mo Xiao to speak. His breath became colder and colder, the anger in his eyes gradually condensed, and the evil energy in his whole body almost overflowed.

Around him, many secret guards couldn't help but show up, surrounding Mo Xiao.

Those of them who have undergone rigorous training are most sensitive to murderous aura, and the aura on Chen Yuan's body made them tense up.

Qiuyue stood in front of Mo Xiao, frowning and looking at Chen Yuan opposite.

"What are you going to do?" Qiuyue's tone was a little heavy, and she tensed up along with these secret guards.

Zhou Chen stood far away. He was a civil servant and did not know how to fight. At this time, he still shouted to Chen Yuan: "Princess, no matter what you want to do, you must stay calm and don't mess around." .”

Chen Yuan tilted her head slightly and looked at Mo Xiao: "Why, do you only hide behind others? When will you stand up like a man?"

Stand up for your woman.

Mo Xiao's eyes moved and he stretched out his hand to push Qiu Yue away.

Qiuyue's face was full of worry: "Your Highness, she..."

"Go down," Mo Xiao looked at Qiu Yue, "I'll talk to the princess alone."

Qiuyue: "..."

Qiuyue was very reluctant, but looking at Mo Xiao's expression, she didn't dare to object.

Mo Xiao looked up at the people around him again and scolded: "Everyone, get back."

These secret guards listened to Mo Xiao's words more than Qiu Yue. As long as Mo Xiao gave the order, they disappeared immediately, taking Zhou Chen away with them.

In the courtyard, only Mo Xiao and Chen Yuan were left.

Chen Yuan sneered: "Your Highness is so brave."

"I just don't know. Does His Highness think that I dare not do anything, or does he think that I am not capable enough to do anything to you?"

Mo Xiao: "None of them."

Chen Yuan blinked, was silent for a while, and then said, "Is the marriage proposal true?"

Mo Xiao: "...Yes."

"Why not refuse?"

"..."

Seeing that he didn't answer, Chen Yuan put her hand on the handle of her knife. She asked again: "Why don't you refuse?"

Mo Xiao closed his eyes: "This matter is too complicated. I will explain it later. But don't worry, this marriage will not happen. It is just a temporary measure."

Chen Yuan: "Expedient measure?"

"Even if this marriage doesn't happen, have you ever thought about what your sister will think when she hears about this marriage?"

"She doesn't know anything. She will think this is true. She will only think that you abandoned her after all. It was right for her to leave you and leave the capital."

These words pierced Mo Xiao's heart like a needle.

Yes, that was why he didn't want to accept the marriage offer in the first place.

Because no matter what, this marriage will cause harm to Lu Jiuqing.

Chen Yuan sneered and said slowly: "Your Highness, the Ninth Prince, what does your sister mean to you?"

"It's my life." Mo Xiao said without hesitation.

He could not say such words before, but now he is very clear that that person is his Mo Xiao's life.

Lu Jiuqing's running away this time cost him half his life.
