Mu Mingtang heard the noise, she ignored Xie Xuanji and went past him to run inside.
Xie Xuanji was startled, as he was in a daze, he let Mu Mingtang run past him. When Xie Xuanji had come back to his senses, he hurriedly catched up to her and grabbed Mu Mingtang: “Do you wish to die?”
Mu Mingtang was already at the door to the room, she was suddenly pulled away by Xie Xuanji, she couldn’t help but stagger a few steps back. She was exhausted, and turned around to break free from Xie Xuanji’s grasp: “The prince seems to have awakened, let me go!”
Xie Xuanji’s expression looked cold as he refused to let go. The noise from just now sounded too abrupt, and Xie Xuanji doubted that it was just his hallucination, but Mu Mingtang heard it too, it couldn’t have been his hallucinations.
But why did Xie Xuanchen wake up so suddenly? Did he overhear their conversation?
Xie Xuanji became more vigilant, whether Xie Xuanchen was conscious or not, it didn’t make a difference. As soon as Xie Xuanchen woke up, he would slaughter everyone. Even if he still hadn’t regained his consciousness, he would still attack indiscriminately. Fortunately, he was subdued. Attacking with a plan in mind would make things even worse.
Xie Xuanji was already very upset, along with Mu Mingtang who was still struggling to get away from him, Xie Xuanji felt even more annoyed, and said: “When he wakes up, he’ll attack the people around him. Do you want to die, trying to get closer to him. Hiss——“
Xie Xuanji could feel a sharp pain come from his hand, and he loosened his finger subconsciously. He raised his hand to take a proper look. His pair of slender, white, pampered hands was now printed with a neat row of teeth marks, which suddenly destroyed the beauty of his whole hand.
Xie Xuanji had never seen such a person. He felt very angry and shouted: “It’s for your own good, but you chose to bite me in return. Is this what the Jiang family has taught you, this is how you’re going to represent your family?”
“I’m sorry for disappointing Prince Jin. I’m a very ill-mannered and rude person. Besides, I have already married into the Jiang family according to their intentions. I have already repaid the Jiang family’s kindness for raising me. I have nothing to do with the Jiang family now. My upright surname is Mu, I don’t want to be a Jiang.” Mu Mingtang gave Xie Xuanji an angry look, and said, “My parents taught me since I was a child that I should bite the person if they were playing dirty tricks.”
Mu Mingtang gritted her teeth at this, she glared at Xie Xuanji again, turned and walked forward quickly. However, she only took two steps before slowly coming to a stop.
On the bed, Xie Xuanchen sat slightly upright. His face was frighteningly pale, and he looked extremely weak. At this moment, he ignored Mu Mingtang and Xie Xuanji. Instead, he lowered his head and stretched the chain straight with a twist of his write, which made a clattering sound.
The wound that was about to heal on his wrist ripped open again, Mu Mingtang was terrified. She had to exhaust all her strength to hold up one of the iron cuffs. Xie Xuanchen could raise it with just one hand, and even make it clatter from stretching it straight.
The sound of the iron chain clattering was loud in the room. Mu Mingtang was frightened when she heard it, and she didn’t dare to step forward. Xie Xuanji also stood at the door, as if he was facing an enemy.
With the sound of the iron chain, Xie Xuanchen’s face became paler and paler, it was as if he was slowly running out of energy. This familiar voice was undoubtedly a nightmare for many people. The chief guard noticed something was wrong outside and knocked on the door: “My Royal Highness, is the Prince of Qiyang awake?”
