Xia Chu's breath was stagnant. This cold and handsome face in the past suddenly appeared in front of her, which always made her blush involuntarily.
But right now, she was too embarrassed to stand up, and her heart was trembling.
She put two fingers on Xiao Mubai's furrowed eyebrows in an attempt to smooth it out, and tugged at the corner of his clothes with her other hand. The expression on her face softened, and her feigned anger could no longer break out. He motioned for him to sit down first.
Although Xiao Mubai's face was still ugly, he finally sat down.
"Princess's whip can't hurt me. I'm a doctor and I know it. If her side really falls, it will really benefit a lot." Xia Chu carefully analyzed and comforted him.
Xiao Mubai's expression did not improve but he raised his eyebrows and looked at her: "Is it because someone from my faction spoiled your wishful thinking?"
Xia Chu clicked her tongue, she couldn't say that. Even though it was true, she would definitely not admit it: "Jiang Yan doesn't want to see me get hurt. I know you can't let me go."
Xiao Mubai's three-dimensional facial features, carved like sharp knives, still exude a cold aura, his thin lips are pursed beautifully, and his unique phoenix eyes are so deep that the bottom cannot be seen.
Xia Chu saw that the momentum around him had not subsided, and she still felt unhappy after thinking about it. She stretched out her hand to cover his clenched fist and called out softly: "Mubai..."
Xiao Mubai lowered his eyelids and finally spoke: "At any time, I don't want you to have the idea of harming yourself."
Xia Chu patted the back of his hand comfortingly: "I understand."
Xiao Mubai raised his eyes to look at her, with a hint of panic in his eyes: "I don't want you to know, I want you to agree."
Xia Chu's face was startled by his sudden sharp voice, and Xiao Mubai also realized that his tone was too extreme. He collected his thoughts for a moment before continuing: "If it were me today, and Bian Ding would go Reporting back to you, how do you feel?"
What do you think
When this whip fell on Xia Chu, she really felt that it was nothing. She even felt that the advantages far outweighed the disadvantages, and there were too many things that could be provoked.
However, if this whip falls on Xiao Mubai.
When Xia Chu thought of this, his eyes suddenly became cold and stern. No benefit could be gained by hurting him at all.
At first she thought Xiao Mubai was making too much fuss, but now she thought about it from his perspective and realized that she had indeed not cared about his feelings.
"I promise you." Xia Chu looked apologetic and sounded sincere.
Xiao Mubai's expression softened slightly when he saw that she didn't seem to be perfunctory. The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while. Xiao Mubai felt that his tone had been too harsh, and Xia Chu felt that he was too selfish. Neither of them knew how to say anything. What detente.
After a long while, Xiao Mubai found something to say and asked, "Didn't you go see that girl Rongrong this morning?"
When Xia Chu heard this, he was instantly ashamed and annoyed. He tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep last night. When he opened his eyes and closed them, the picture of the person in front of him emerged clearly.
Xiao Mubai saw her pursed lips tightly and her face turned red. He put his hand to her forehead and asked, "Why, you didn't go there because you felt uncomfortable?"
Xia Chu pressed his hand and closed her eyes. How could she possibly say this truth? After thinking about it, she followed his words with a vague hum: "I felt a little uncomfortable. I got up late and didn't go."
Xiao Mubai immediately stood up after hearing this, picked her up and walked towards the bed: "Then you still want to be whipped this afternoon? Go to bed and lie down!"
"Eh? No, I..." Xia Chu swung her legs in mid-air. Xiao Mubai glared at her and immediately silenced her.
Xia Chu was gently placed on the bed by Xiao Mubai, who couldn't help but feel pain in her forehead. She just got up in the corner. It was only around midnight, so why should she sleep so early
Xiao Mubai even covered her with a blanket: "Since you are feeling unwell today, I will let you rest early."
"No, I'm feeling well..." When Xia Chu saw him turn around and leave, she reached out and took his hand.
Xiao Mubai paused in his steps and froze. After a moment, he turned to look at her, with a meaningful smile on his lips.
Xia Chu just let go and covered her mouth. Oh my god, what did she just say...
It was a quiet night, and a man and a woman were alone in the same room. What she just said couldn't be savored in detail.
Shameful, so shameful...
Xiao Mubai turned around and walked towards the bed. The sound of footsteps in Xia Chu's ears made her heart beat wildly and she felt embarrassed and ashamed.
"I, I didn't mean that..." Xia Chu saw him leaning over and getting closer, reaching out to put his hand on his chest, speaking a little stumblingly.
The smile at the corner of Xiao Mubai's mouth became deeper and deeper. He raised his hand and pressed the hand on her chest to her ear. He continued to lean forward and pressed against her cheek and asked, "What do you mean?"
Xia Chu cursed in her heart, but her body slowly slid down. However, the blanket she covered in early July was so thin that it slid down along with her, unable to cover her head and face, let alone her blushing cheeks.
It seems that Xiao Mubai still has a unique charm at this time, eh? Xia Chu heard a sound, which made Xia Chu feel ashamed, annoyed and embarrassed. She narrowed her eyes to a small slit and glanced at him furtively. She then started pretending to be sick and said in a nasal voice: "I seemed to have some fever this morning. signs, and now I’m starting to feel dizzy again.”
After hearing this, Xiao Mubai lost all intention of joking, and put the back of his hand on her forehead again, and found that it was indeed a little hot: "I asked Han Sa to call the doctor."
When Xia Chu saw him getting up and walking towards the door, he quickly called out to him. The call was so confident that Xiao Mubai frowned suspiciously and turned back. Only then did Xia Chu react and coughed twice weakly: "You are I'm not stupid, can the doctor in this mansion be better than me? I know it myself, I just need to sleep and cover my body to sweat."
Xiao Mubai's face was startled. He was so anxious just now that he forgot that she was the one who had the magic power to rejuvenate. He immediately walked back, and this time he covered her with a blanket: "Then just be good. Get some sleep."
Xia Chu looked at the blanket that fit perfectly with the one she covered herself with. There really was no gap at all. She thought to herself that it would be a disaster for herself.
"You wait until I fall asleep before leaving." Xia Chu tried to stretch out his arm, but Xiao Mubai caught it and stuffed it back. He scolded with a serious look on his face: "You said it yourself to cover your body with sweat and be obedient."
Xia Chu twitched the corner of his mouth and sighed in his heart.
"I didn't make it in the morning, but I went to look for Xianli in the afternoon." Xia Chu couldn't sleep at the moment, so she chatted with him with her eyes closed.
Xiao Mubai pressed her quilt, sat on her bedside, and replied softly: "I know, Jiang Yan has already reported it."
Xia Chu sneered: "He's really nimble with his hands and feet."
Xiao Mubai reached out and stroked her cheek: "Can someone who is not quick at work be placed next to you?"
