Although Xiao Qi Feng had always believed in Ning Meng Yao, she knew that he was very afraid of her deep inside his heart, especially seeing with his own eyes what had become of the former Ling Residence and Xiao Residence. It was obvious that Xiao Qi Feng wanted to eliminate that fear.
At that time, Xiao Qi Feng had always believed in Qiao Tian Chang and Ning Meng Yao. Perhaps Xiao Qi Feng had wanted to suppress Tong Bao Zhai after gradually understanding Ning Meng Yao’s power, it was just that he did not have any good reason or excuse to do so.
After he had such an idea, his brotherly affection for Qiao Tian Chang had gradually been replaced by suspicion. He could not help but wonder whether Qiao Tian Chang would directly use force to take over the palace, just like those people.
Doubt and suspicion would expand indefinitely as long as there was just a little bit of it. By the time they returned from Miaojiang, there were several powerful people at the White Mountain Village, which made the suspicion that Xiao Qi Feng felt explode. As a result, he did those things.
It was just a pity that she understood this too late. She always felt that as long as Qiao Tian Chang was around, Xiao Qi Feng and the rest would not go too far no matter what, but she did not expect the outcome to become like this.
“What are you thinking?” Qiao Tian Chang noticed Ning Meng Yao had not spoken, and she looked like she was in a little trance, so he asked.
Ning Meng Yao shook her head gently: “I’m fine, I just thought of something.”
“Hmm?”
“It’s nothing, Tian Chang, if… I’m saying if Xiao Qi Feng doesn’t believe you anymore, and even more if he suspects you, what are you going to do?” Ning Meng Yao asked Qiao Tian Chang seriously.
Qiao Tian Chang smiled and shook his head: “I don’t plan to do anything, our friendship has been broken now, so why should I care about what he does? If he wants to suspect me, then go ahead. Having suspicion in me because I showed greater achievements wouldn’t change no matter what we do.”
Before meeting Ning Meng Yao, Qiao Tian Chang and Xiao Qi Feng were indeed good brothers. The trust between the two of them was very strong, but Ning Meng Yao’s forces gave Xiao Qi Feng a sense of crisis, so he began to doubt Qiao Tian Chang and worry that he would seize the throne with Ning Meng Yao’s help one day.
Qiao Tian Chang was not sure whether he found this idea funny or disappointing. The brotherly love between them for several years was nothing compared to his unreal greed.
Ning Meng Yao stunned, then smiled: “You are right.”
Qiao Tian Chang knew more about the things in the Imperial Court than she did. What else did she have to worry about?
“Okay, let’s not talk about this. I’m afraid that everything that belonged to Qi Tian are now in the hands of Xiao Qi Feng.” Qiao Tian Chang frowned and said.
He knew very well that if those things were really taken by Xiao Qi Feng, then Xiao Qi Tian’s rights would have been completely overridden. Perhaps the Xiao Qi Tian in the Xiao Empire now was nothing but an idle prince. He was nothing but a decoration in the empire.
“Are you worried about him?” Ning Meng Yao looked at Qiao Tian Chang.
“Yes, I’m a bit worried, but it’s okay, they’re no longer related to us anymore, maybe this is the best for him.” Only without any power could he be safe.
Xiao Qi Feng would not really do anything to him.
Ning Meng Yao looked helplessly at Qiao Tian Chang. Things had already reached this point, and he still thought about those people. What could she say?
“I will ask people to watch over Xiao Qi Tian and help him in due course.”
Qiao Tian Chang stared blankly at Ning Meng Yao, then he smiled: “Okay, thank you, Yao Yao.”
He did not have to worry too much, now that he had Tong Bao Zhai’s help, at least Xiao Qi Tian would not be in danger this way.
Ning Meng Yao squinted at Qiao Tian Chang: “Do you still have to say thank you to me?”
“No, no I don’t. I won’t say it next time.” Qiao Tian Chang shook his head and smiled.
Ning Meng Yao snorted arrogantly, but kept quiet.
“Tian Chang, have you ever thought about leaving this place?” Ning Meng Yao was silent for a long time, then she suddenly looked at Qiao Tian Chang and asked.
“Why?”
“After this, I’m afraid it will take a long time to recuperate, and Tong Bao Zhai made a lot of movements this time. It may not be suitable for us to stay anymore.” Ning Meng Yao blinked slightly and she felt a little sad.
Qiao Tian Chang looked at Ning Meng Yao unexpectedly: “What are you saying?”
