Xie Xingyun’s gaze was fixed on her lips.
Bai Xianyu felt his eyes gradually burn and she stepped back warily.
Xie Xingyun’s gaze slowly moved away from her lips and met her eyes. His smile was insincere. “I’m very ashamed and embarrassed.”
Bai Xianyu,”…”
“I don’t think you’re ashamed at all. You’re not embarrassed at all.” She silently pulled the blanket up a little, covering up to her neck tightly.
In fact, from his gaze just now, he seemed to be unsatisfied.
It was as if he regretted not kissing her a few more times just now.
Xie Xingyun seemed to be in a good mood today. His usual rare smile seemed to be very normal now. He answered, “Yes.”
Bai Xianyu, “After applying the medicine, can you leave?”
If it was not for the fact that he was applying medicine for her and had treated her arrow wound earlier, she would have said this long ago.
Xie Xingyun shook the medicine bottle between his fingers. “I’m not done applying the medicine.”
Bai Xianyu snorted. “Don’t think I don’t know that you had already applied the medicine just now.”
Xie Xingyun’s expression was serious. “It has been cleaned off by the kiss.”
Bai Xianyu blushed. “Shut up.”
Xie Xingyun smiled lightly and stood up. He lowered his head in front of her and leisurely took out some white cream from between his fingers. Then, he leaned over. “Be good. This is the scar removal medicine. You have to apply it twice a day.”
Bai Xianyu actually loved to look pretty. When those people outside praised her for being a great beauty, she would also be overjoyed. She was meticulous with the daily care and cleaning. Not to mention a scar, there was not even a slight scratch on her body. There was not even a dark spot on her elbows and joints.
“Give me the medicine. I’ll do it myself.”
Xie Xingyun looked at her steadily. “Won’t it hurt?”
Bai Xianyu tried to move a little, but she quickly frowned. She endured it. “No.”
“Lie down.” Xie Xingyun saw through her stubbornness at a glance. He smoothed her brows, pulled down her clothes like earlier, and applied medicine for her.
Bai Xianyu was not strong to begin with and could not be compared to him at all. Now that she was sick and weak, he could suppress her with a little strength.
This time, he did not do anything else and applied the medicine for her in a proper manner.
Bai Xianyu lay on the bed like a dead fish with her eyes closed. However, her body would occasionally tremble lightly because of his movements.
Xie Xingyun put away the jade bottle and took a handkerchief to wipe her sweat. “This medicine was given to me by Gu Yu. He likes to play with poison, so after applying this medicine, don’t use other scar removal medicine, in case it counters each other.”
Bai Xianyu nodded and looked much more refreshed. She narrowed her eyes comfortably. “Okay.”
Xie Xingyun glanced at her bedclothes. “Do you want to take a bath?”
Bai Xianyu nodded.
As soon as Xie Xingyun finished speaking, he thought of her wound. It was in that critical spot and the bathtub could not be used. He asked, “How did you bathe the past few days?”
A few days ago, because of her fever, her maidservant had been watching over her in the room all day long. Although he was worried, he could only go in occasionally to take a look, feed her medicine, and check her injuries.
Publicly, she was still unmarried. If he wanted to see her, he could only make use of the time in between.
Like now when her maidservant was not in the room.
Bai Xianyu thought for a moment. There were still remnants of memories in her mind. “Green Pearl and the others sponged me.”
“Them?”
Bai Xianyu felt that this conversation was especially familiar. It was exactly the same as what the two of them had said in her previous life. However, they were no longer husband and wife. This was the first time she had replied so firmly, “That’s right. Otherwise, I was not able to bathe and change my clothes when I was unconscious, it would have been uncomfortable lying down.”
In the past, she always promised that she would not do that again. IShe would either do it herself or let him do it. Most of the time, Xie Xingyun would do it personally unless he had work to deal with and was not in the residence.
She felt that since they were all women, it did not matter for them to look at her.
Xie Xingyun’s thoughts were completely different from hers. At the thought of the few of them bathing and changing her clothes for her, wiping every inch of her delicate skin with a cloth, he felt depressed.
However, he was in no position to care about these things, and he could not help her clean her body himself.
The corners of Xie Xingyun’s mouth flattened slightly as he lowered his eyelashes. “Hmm.”
He could not control his possessiveness towards her and could only hide the emotions in his eyes.
He did not want to cause her to dislike him even more, nor did he want to scare her.
“I’ll get someone to…” Before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly paused.
Footsteps and conversation sounded at the door.
“Young Masters, don’t worry. 1’11 go take a look now.”
“Emm.”
“Thank you.”
It was her Second Brother and Fourth Brother’s voices. There seemed to also be a physician.
The footsteps of the three of them were getting closer.
Bai Xianyu propped herself up and looked around. It was late at night, so it was a little difficult to explain Xie Xingyun’s appearance at her place. However, this place was sparse and there was no place to hide.
The next second, the door creaked open..
