Military Young Master’s Sweetheart - Chapter 70

Heh! Xia Xingyu sneered, not knowing what else to say.

She gave Shen Peian a meaningful look. The coldness and estrangement in her eyes made Shen Peian feel uncomfortable.

“Listen to me …”

Shen Pei An wanted to explain more, but Xia Xingyu wouldn’t give him the chance.

He stretched out his hand, wanting to touch Xia Xingyu’s head, but at this moment, the woman had already laid down and was dozing off, obviously not wanting to pay attention to him.

Shen Pei An picked up his phone and looked at the time. It was indeed getting late, so he told her to go to bed first.

With that thought in mind, Shen Peian laid down beside Xia Xingyu and placed one hand on her body.

But Xia Xingyu was angry, how could he let Shen Pei An touch his own body?

She wriggled her body and then threw Shen Peian’s hand aside.

Shen Pei An was amused by her actions. He smiled and seized the woman by force, locking her in his arms.

Xia Xingyu resentfully struggled for a while, but to no avail. After a moment, he unexpectedly fell into a deep sleep under this kind of warmth.

When he woke up the next day, Shen Peian had already left for work.

Xia Xingyu fumbled to get off the bed, and her eyes fell on the phone that received Xia Ying’s message.

After thinking for a moment, she decided to go see Xia Ying.

A Qiao had already prepared breakfast, Chen Qian had already finished eating and sat here waiting for Xia Xing Yu.

When she finally saw her get down, Chen Qian hurriedly stood up. She walked up and held Xia Xingyu’s hand before slowly opening her mouth.

“Wait a minute, are you going out? “Pei An said that he wanted me to go with you. Your body is not fully recovered yet. If you have anything you want me to help you with, that’s fine.”

Chen Qian said with a smile on her face. Of course, she knew Xia Xingyu’s intention for waking up so early in the morning.

Before Shen Peian left, he had already explained everything.

“Aunty …”

Xia Xingyu didn’t dare to let Chen Qian accompany her when she went to see Xia Ying. That woman Xia Ying had a foul and venomous mouth, he definitely couldn’t let her sully Chen Qian’s ears.

“It’s enough for me to go by myself. I feel that my body is almost fully recovered, so I’ll be fine.”

Xia Xingyu said with a smile, her face was full of joy and relief, but Chen Qian was a smart woman, how could she not see the tiredness under Xia Xingyu’s smiling face.

She shook her head, then tapped Xia Xingyu’s forehead with her finger.

“It’s impossible for you to go out alone. Let’s not talk about this for now, you should just eat first.”

Because of Chen Qian’s insistence, Xia Xingyu was finally unable to leave the villa.

She was bored out of her mind after her meal. She took her cell phone and wandered around the second floor for a while before finally locking her eyes on Shen Peian’s study.

She had never been inside this place before, so she didn’t know if there were any secrets.

Xia Xingyu pushed the door open and entered. What entered his sight were rows upon rows of wooden bookshelves, which were filled with famous books from ancient and modern times, as well as some current financial and political highlights.

She had never known that Shen Peian had so many books.

Sitting in Shen Peian’s office chair, a expensive computer was placed in front of him. Xia Xingyu had somehow turned on the computer and found that it needed a password to power it.

“Was it his birthday?”

Xia Xingyu thought like this and immediately lost the number that represented Shen Peian’s birthday.

Bad password!

This made Xia Xingyu slightly frown, could it be his?

She tried it again on her birthday, but she didn’t expect to open it.

The computer had a photo of Xia Xingyu on its desktop. The woman couldn’t help but twitch her lips, and then without saying a word, she switched the desktop to a picture of the scenery.

The names of the folders in the computer were all very strange. They were all characters that Xia Xingyu could not understand, but there was one that Xia Xingyu was very interested in.

This was because the folder had the words’ Forbidden City ‘written on it.

Inside the folder was some information about Zhang Qingge. Other than her, there was no one else. This made Xia Xingyu feel a bit uncomfortable.

Opening the file recording Zhang Qingge’s information, Xia Xingyu read it bit by bit.

Suddenly, she saw a page about Zhang Qingge’s punishments. The words’ Xiahou Yong ‘and’ Ning Xi ‘were written inside.

This caused Xia Xingyu’s head to explode.

The reason Xiahou Yong had come to the seaport that time was because of Zhang Qingge’s information, and she had only done so to make Shen Peian and Jane Lan suspicious.

Zhang Qingge had falsified the evidence of Jian Lan and Xiahou Yong’s negotiation. She thought that she had done it flawlessly, but she didn’t think that it would be discovered so quickly. Furthermore, she was expelled from the army and could not interfere in politics for the rest of her life.

Xia Xingyu felt a chill in his heart. If Zhang Qingge hadn’t been in cahoots with Xiahou Yong, Ning Xi wouldn’t have died either.

But Shen Peian, Shen Peian, are you trying to hide something so important from me?

Xia Xingyu thought like this as she gripped the mouse even harder. She could not understand why Shen Pei An would keep deceiving her over and over again about these matters.

The more he thought about it, the more his heart sank. Xia Xingyu collapsed powerlessly onto Shen Peian’s chair, unable to recover for a long time.

“Xingyu, come down quickly for lunch!”

Chen Qian didn’t know about Zhang Qingge’s affairs. She affectionately called for Xia Xingyu to eat, so she didn’t notice the abnormality in her expression.

For the whole day, Xia Xingyu didn’t say anything. Chen Qian thought she was too tired, so she didn’t disturb her.

Chen Qian reminded him when he came back.

“Xingyu’s complexion doesn’t look too good. Should we invite the doctor over to take a look?”

Hearing this, Shen Peian wrinkled his brow and strode upstairs.

“What’s wrong with you? Is there something wrong? ”

There was a trace of anxiety in Shen Pei An’s clear voice. He would only remove his cold and arrogant outer shell when facing Xia Xingyue.

Xia Xingyu, hearing Shen Peian’s voice, was infuriated. She clenched her fists and turned her head to the side.

“What’s wrong?”

Seeing Xia Xingyu like this, Shen Pei An purposely lowered his tone. Then he slowly walked to her side, sat down, and put a hand on her shoulder.

This subtle contact was unbearable for Xia Xingyu.

“Why?”

Xia Xingyu abruptly turned around and stared coldly at Shen Peian, as if he could see through this man.

“Why what? What’s the matter with you? ”

Shen Peian really had no idea what was going on. He stretched out a hand, wanting to probe Xia Xingyu’s forehead.

She was so abnormal, yet she was actually so unfathomable.

“Why did you cover for Zhang Qingge!”

After Xia Xingyu asked this question, she felt a little dizzy. She was afraid of listening to Shen Pei An’s answer, but more than that, she still wanted to know the truth.
