Lin Xiaofei somewhat felt like laughing.

One did not know why but Qu Xing Xu\'s change of personality was as fast as the weather. When Lin Xiaofei first saw him sitting beside the royal family, he wasn\'t even sparing anyone a glance and gave others a cold shoulder even towards the high-ranking officials that wanted to talk to him.

He didn\'t even engage a long conversation with the royal family and treated them as no more than just acquaintances. One even could observe that it was the princes and princesses who started to talk to him.

And yet, when she called him Manager Liu, his personality turned upside down and his tone became ambiguous.

With Qu Xing Xu\'s title and having the same blood coursing inside his veins as the royal family, any girl would fall prey to his charms. Unfortunately, he wasn\'t interested in entertaining women nor men thus, these words that left his mouth were extremely rare to hear.

Normally, when a man says something inappropriate like what Qu Xing Xu said just now, the young lady who was at the receiving end would endlessly blush and couldn\'t focus.

And yet, this woman who was standing before him didn\'t even blush nor was she flustered at his suggestive remarks, and that only made his self-esteem slightly sink.

He gave her a side-glance, looking at her like she was some kind of a monster.

Lin Xiaofei rolled her eye in her heart. She could guess what Qu Xing Xu was thinking. As a woman who was married once and done the activities between husband and wife, his misleading remark was nothing to her.

And even if she was moved by it, Lin Xiaofei masterfully hid it and didn\'t change her expression.

"How did you find out anyway?" Qu Xing Xu was the first one to speak after their prolonged silence. He changed the topic instantly and naturally.

"Just guessed it and luckily, I was right."

In truth, Lin Xiaofei has been doubting herself for a while since she met Manager Liu. She couldn\'t shake off the feeling that she was being tricked by the deceitful man and because of that she was frustrated and couldn\'t sleep well for a few nights.

And when she saw him sitting beside the royal family members, Lin Xiaofei could feel a sense of familiarity from him thus, she ended up watching his movements from afar. She then later realized something as if the missing piece in her puzzle appeared right in front of her.

"I see..." Qu Xing Xu stroke his chin as if he was thinking deeply, but inside, he was slightly annoyed that he didn\'t get an elaborate explanation on how she guessed that he was using two identities inside the Capital.

Lin Xiaofei raised her eyes to look at him and said, "I was left in wonder why you suddenly wanted to meet me. Since there is nothing left to say, I will head back first."

Lin Xiaofei turned around and was about to walk away when Qu Xing Xu opened his mouth, "Why are you so anxious to go back? Is it because of that young man earlier?"

When he mentioned Lin Shen Yu, Qu Xing Xu felt something boiling inside him as he didn\'t like anyone being so close to the woman who kept on entertaining him.

When he first saw her walking with Lin Shen Yu, he was in a sour mood. He planned to meet her in the Heavenly Pagoda but he changed his mind as soon as he saw them and followed them. He watched them from behind, remaining undetected and silent like a beast that stalked its prey before pouncing on it.

She halted from her step and turned around with a frown on her face.

"Whether it\'s because of him or not, what does it have anything to do with you, Your Grace?" She felt annoyed at his harsh tone. She wasted enough time and was behind her schedule thus, her frustrations toward this man intensified.

Besides, what does Lin Shen Yu have anything to do with her?

She saw his eyes narrowing and walking closer to her. He only stopped when they were a foot away from each other. He had a tall stature and when he stood in front of her, his shadow covered her entirely even though she was quite tall for her age.

When Qu Xing Xu heard her addressing him with his title instead of his name after they agreed to get rid of the formalities, his eyes became cold.

"Of course, it does not have anything to do with me. However, I don\'t think the matters that disturbed that old fool\'s sleep didn\'t have anything to do with me." With a murderous look in his eyes, he condescendingly looked down at her, "Using the bomb I gave to you to destroy that cave… Lin Xiaofei, what are you really planning to do?"

"Are you planning to go against the royal family?"

"What is Duke Qu Xing Xu saying? Please don\'t utter such words that could ruin someone\'s life. The palace has many ears and if those words were to be heard by someone, who knew if my Lin family could secure our necks." Lin Xiaofei denied. She wanted to gauge his reactions and know what side he was leaning on.

It didn\'t matter where the other side was but for her, it would be quite advantageous if he didn\'t lean to the emperor\'s side.

"You sure lie so well…" he suddenly raised the corner of his lips, looking frivolously, "But that glint in your eyes and smile on your lips tells me differently."

When thinking of the fact that she was against her enemies, the excitement and anticipation to eradicate all of them made her smile subconsciously. And the man who was standing so close to her naturally didn\'t let that reaction from her escape his eyes.

Just as Lin Xiaofei was about to speak, she heard him say: "Just right, I just happened to have the same goal as you."

Lin Xiaofei looked stunned at him. Even though she half expected him to have the same goal as her, but still, his answer surprised her. He just went and openly declared it in front of her. Was he not afraid that she would tell anyone about this?

Yet again, who would believe her words anyway?

Besides, whether he was telling the truth or not, it didn\'t matter for as long as he will not destroy or interrupt her plans. She never planned to trust anyone but herself. However, it would make her plans easier if Qu Xing Xu were by her side.

Having a new player in her chessboard, she wondered what kind of chesspiece will he be.

And if he happened to betray her… Cutting the rotten meat and replace it with a new one will not be too difficult for her.

Just as she was deep in thought, Qu Xing Xu was trying to guess what was going in her mind. However, as if the young woman before him was stagnant water, he couldn\'t tell whatever she was thinking.

The royal family was too ambitious and greedy that they even stole from their subjects, with this kind of rulers, who would serve honestly and sincerely? They made a quite number of enemies in their trail wherever they go. Yet, because they were good at hiding things, many didn\'t have any chance of going against them.

Staring at the young lady that was as beautiful as the moon. The way her black dress stuck close to her figure and her hair cascading behind her like fine silk, she looks breathlessly fascinating.

Her long eyes overly long eyelashes would flutter when she tried to close her eyes. He suddenly had the urge to touch it under his fingers and feel it.

Snapping out of his thoughts, he pulled out a piece of paper from his sleeve. When Lin Xiaofei laid her eyes upon it, she couldn\'t help but ruthlessly glare at him

"Why is it \'that\' in your hand?" Lin Xiaofei felt her heart diving inside her stomach once she saw the paper that she wrote earlier before going outside the hall and hissed at him.

"You don\'t have to be so guarded with me. We\'re now in the same boat now that we\'ve come to a mutual understanding." He laughingly said at her brutal tone and put the piece of paper in her hand.

"I was only curious at what you were planning with the lady from the Song family thus, I let my men copy the content of that. Don\'t worry, the original is now in the hands of the person who should receive it." He smiled at her mischievously while his eyes contained a cold glint.

He saw her let out a deep sigh of relief and that caught his interest.

"What exactly did the Song family do to you that you would even dare do this to them, Lin Xiaofei?" He was extremely amused at her and her plans.
