Chapter 208 Misunderstanding deepens
Qi Minxiu's anger suddenly flared up at his words.
He approached him with a cold look on his face: "You should know better than me who killed General Nie, right?
Qi Yue, I didn't expect you to do anything to get someone who doesn't love you at all.
You say you love her, but you want to kill even her most beloved relatives. Tell me, what do you love about her?
Qi Yue was confused, and the confusion in his eyes didn't seem to be fake: "What are you talking about?"
"Why are you pretending? You pretended to be me and burned down the house and killed General Nie, wasn't it just to drive a wedge between me and A-Mo?
Now you have succeeded, but Amo does not love you, and would not choose you even if she were not with me."
The more Qi Minxiu spoke, the angrier he became.
I thought that according to Qi Yue's personality, he would admit it readily, but I didn't expect him to deny what he said outright.
"I don't know what you are talking about. I only heard about Qin Shan's affairs later.
Although I never met General Nie, his death still makes me feel very sad."
Qi Yue spoke in a grand manner, and suddenly, he caught a glimpse of Xiao Mo who was slowly waking up behind Qi Minxiu.
"I see, you said that on purpose so that A-Mo would overhear it when she woke up and then put the blame on me.
Qi Minxiu, so your love is so embarrassing?"
He raised the corner of his mouth provocatively and raised his eyebrows slightly.
Qi Minxiu tilted his head and stared at him in disbelief: "Qi Yue, when it comes to the ability to confuse right and wrong, I'm afraid there's no one else in the entire Nanyao Kingdom except you."
Qi Yue's originally arrogant expression suddenly softened, as if he had suffered some injustice.
"Royal brother, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say anything you want. Everything requires evidence.
You are making irresponsible remarks without any evidence, which will terrify my brother. "
Qi Minxiu couldn't stand his fake and pretentious behavior, and was about to scold him when he tilted half of his head and looked at the bed with surprise.
"Amo, you're awake!"
Qi Minxiu turned around happily, but before he could offer any comfort, he met a pair of eyes filled with hatred.
At some point, Xiao Mo had already sat up on the bed.
She coldly withdrew her gaze from him and asked, "Why are you here?"
The corners of Qi Minxiu's mouth slowly dropped, and he lowered his eyes like a child who had done something wrong.
"I heard you were sick, so I came to see you. How are you feeling?"
Xiao Mo raised her chin and leaned lightly against the head of the bed. Her frown made it clear that she was still feeling uncomfortable.
"Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. I'm fine now. Please go back."
Such a distant address, such a tone as if treating a stranger, sounded like beautiful music to Qi Yue's ears.
But when Qi Minxiu heard it, every word was like a sharp knife piercing his heart.
He pursed his lips tightly, knowing that she had overheard his conversation with Qi Yue.
But if he explained now, it would only deepen Xiao Mo's misunderstanding of him.
Again, the only thing he could do was put the evidence in front of her.
Qi Yue suppressed a smile and winked at the palace attendant beside him: "Royal brother, can't you see that General Xiao is going to rest?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the palace maid walked up to him, bowed, and made a "please" gesture to him.
Qi Minxiu narrowed his eyes and looked at him, feeling extremely dissatisfied.
No wonder his expression suddenly changed just now, and even his tone of voice became a little weaker.
It turned out that he found out that Xiao Mo had woken up, so he deliberately said those words to deepen their misunderstanding.
Qi Yue's action deepened his suspicion of him.
Xiao Mo would be at a disadvantage if she stayed with someone who was such a good actor.
Qi Minxiu rolled his eyes and glanced at the two palace maids who came to chase him away, then took a step forward to approach the bed.
"Amo, do you want to go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion? I'll take you there."
Xiao Mo opened her eyes and glanced at him briefly: "No, it's fine here."
Seeing that she thought it was unnecessary to even look at him, he felt as if his heart was being tortured and he couldn't breathe.
"Don't you want to see me?"
"Yes, I'm annoyed when I see you now. Seeing you reminds me of the scene I saw at Qinshan, so I beg you to leave, get out of my sight, and leave my life."
Xiao Mo turned her face to the inside of the bed, pretending that she didn't want to look at him, but in fact she didn't dare to look at him.
Because her eyes were already filled with tears, she was afraid that she would not be able to control herself and reveal her flaws.
Qi Minxiu laughed self-deprecatingly: "Okay, I'll go."
He turned around angrily, took two steps and turned back again: "Amo, you..."
"Go!" Xiao Mo shouted angrily and threw the bedside decoration at him.
Qi Yue felt both distressed and happy when looking at Xiao Mo.
He walked forward and paused when passing by Qi Minxiu.
Qi Minxiu raised his head, as if he had regained his lost pride, and strode away with his chest puffed out.
Xiao Mo was holding a lot of anger in her heart, and she finally let it out after he left.
She was breathing heavily, her cheeks were wet.
Qi Yue was shocked by her appearance, and quickly walked to the bed, sat down, and held her in his arms.
"Don't cry, Mo. I'll be here for you from now on."
Xiao Mo threw herself into his arms, and her eyes gradually focused where he couldn't see them. They were so sharp that she didn't look like someone heartbroken at all.
But this look only lasted for a moment, and she quickly retracted it.
She frowned, clutched the clothes around his waist tightly with both hands, and just kept sobbing.
Qi Yue just held her quietly, occasionally patting her back gently and comforting her with his body language.
He had never hugged her like this before, and his long-frozen heart seemed to be slowly melting.
After a while, a palace maid came in carrying a bowl of steaming medicine.
When she saw the two people cuddling each other through the screen, she quickly retreated behind the screen.
"Your Highness, General Xiao's medicine has been prepared."
Qi Yue didn't move, turned his head to look at her, and cleared his throat: "Bring it in."
The palace maid received the order and walked in with her head lowered and small steps.
She was very well-behaved, so she put down the medicine bowl and walked out.
Qi Yue held Xiao Mo in one hand and took the medicine with the other: "Come, Amo, drink the medicine first."
Xiao Mo reached out and wiped the tears from her face, then sat up and said, "Give it to me."
She was about to take the bowl when Qi Yue took it away: "Sit down, I'll feed you."
Xiao Mo paused her hand in mid-air before retracting it.
She leaned back against the head of the bed, and Qi Yue quickly tucked in the quilt for her.
