"Miss Bai, don't just care about others and ignore the wound on the back of your hand." Xiaoqing hadn't noticed it yet, but Ao Qingmei caught a glimpse of a scratch on the back of Bai Suzhen's left hand caused by a sharp claw. It was probably caused by the fight with the black dragon.
"Sister, are you injured?" Xiaoqing heard this and looked at Bai Suzhen anxiously, "Where are you injured?"
Bai Suzhen lowered her eyes and looked at the scar on the back of her left hand. She smiled faintly and said calmly, "It's just some superficial injuries, nothing serious..."
"It's not serious after such an injury?!" Xiao Qing grabbed Bai Suzhen's left hand and looked at the scratch marks on the back of Bai Suzhen's hand. Her brows suddenly frowned, her eyes full of heartache, and she gritted her teeth and said fiercely: "The damn black dragon spirit actually hurt you, sister. His body should have been chopped into pieces just now."
Ao Qingmei glanced at Xiaoqing, who was gritting her teeth and was extremely angry, and thought to herself that this girl really had a violent tendency, so she should avoid her in the future.
"It's okay, Qing'er, it's just a minor injury. It will be healed in a few days." Bai Suzhen comforted her softly. Looking at Xiaoqing frowning because she felt sorry for her, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she was moved.
"No need to wait that long--" Xiaoqing suddenly spoke, she turned her head to look at Ao Qingmei and asked, "Second sister, you have Jade Fat with you, right?" Ao Qingmei had already taken out a mutton-fat jade bottle and handed it over. The Jade Fat from the Dragon Palace can regenerate muscles and stop bleeding, and is a good medicine for treating external injuries.
Xiaoqing carefully applied the jade cream on Bai Suzhen's wound. Where the jade cream was applied, the wound healed quickly at a speed visible to the naked eye. In just a moment, the scar on the back of Bai Suzhen's hand disappeared completely, and her delicate hand was as good as new. Bai Suzhen's eyes moved slightly, and she was somewhat amazed at the magical effect of the jade cream. The black dragon spirit practiced bloodthirsty magic, and its claws were poisonous. When she treated the scar on the back of her hand just now, she could only force out the poison, but could not heal the wound. She didn't expect that the jade cream could make her wound heal so quickly.
When Xiaoqing saw that the wound on the back of Bai Suzhen's hand was no longer serious, her frown relaxed and she handed the mutton-fat jade bottle back to Ao Qingmei.
"Miss Bai, this Jade Condensation Fat is the best medicine for treating external injuries in our East China Sea. You should keep it with you. Perhaps it can come in handy in the future." Ao Qingmei gave the Jade Condensation Fat to Bai Suzhen.
Bai Suzhen was startled and quickly declined, "How can Suzhen accept such a valuable item..."
"Miss Bai, why are you being so polite? It's just a bottle of medicine." Ao Qingmei interrupted Bai Suzhen and raised her eyebrows and said, "My third sister is so worried about Miss Bai, how can I, as the second sister, be stingy with a bottle of medicine?" Ao Qingmei smiled and looked at Bai Suzhen deeply. Ao Qingmei had seen clearly that Bai Suzhen's concern for her third sister was not just out of simple sisterly love. Her bright eyes were clearly filled with tenderness. She was sure that Bai Suzhen liked her third sister, just as her third sister liked Bai Suzhen.
Bai Suzhen was startled, and met Ao Qingmei's understanding gaze. She was stunned for a moment, then smiled with relief, took the jade cream, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Miss Qingmei."
"Sister Bai, just call me Qingmei from now on." Ao Qingmei raised the corners of her lips and smiled sweetly. She turned her eyes and looked at Xiaoqing. Suddenly, she said, "Third sister, I originally wanted to be a lobbyist for you and speak well of you in front of Miss Bai, but now it seems that there is no need to do so." She flicked her collar and turned around. "I'll go see my eldest sister. She should have finished healing Mei Niang's injuries." After that, she walked towards Ao Ningshuang's room.
"Qing'er, have you told your second sister about our affairs?" Bai Suzhen withdrew her gaze from Ao Qingmei's back and looked at Xiaoqing.
"Is sister angry?" Xiaoqing looked at Bai Suzhen anxiously. Seeing that Bai Suzhen just looked at her quietly with no emotion on her face, Xiaoqing thought that she didn't like to tell others about their relationship. Although she could understand, she felt a little disappointed. She lowered her eyes and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, sister. I won't tell others that I like you anymore."
"Qing'er, what are you talking about?" Bai Suzhen was amused and angry. She knew that Xiaoqing had misunderstood her meaning. Looking at Xiaoqing's aggrieved and depressed look, she smiled helplessly and said, "I just felt that your second sister seemed to know about the relationship between you and me, so I asked casually." She took Xiaoqing's hand, held it tightly, and said seriously, "Qing'er, although you and I are both women, and falling in love is against moral ethics, it is not something shameful. Even if someone knows about our relationship and spreads rumors, I will not care. I like you and I will like you wholeheartedly, not afraid of making it public. If I really care about what they say, won't I be exhausted to death?"
After hearing what Bai Suzhen said, Xiaoqing's eyes lit up and she was delighted. She kept saying, "Sister, you are right." After a pause, she answered Bai Suzhen's question, "Sister, my second sister does know that I like you."
"Then... does she want me to be with you?" Although Bai Suzhen said that she was with Xiaoqing and didn't care about other people's opinions, she had to care about the attitude of Xiaoqing's relatives. After hesitating for a while, she finally asked.
Xiao Qing smiled proudly and said, "Of course. If she doesn't stand on my side, where else can she stand?"
Bai Suzhen smiled, and suddenly felt a sense of relief in her heart.
"Sister, let's go and see how our eldest sister and the others are doing." Xiaoqing pulled Bai Suzhen and was about to go to Ao Ningshuang's room.
"Qing'er, wait a minute—" Bai Suzhen still had something to say, but Xiaoqing turned around. Bai Suzhen looked at her steadily, and said word by word, "Qing'er, promise me that if you encounter a strong enemy in the future, don't be impulsive and put yourself in danger like today, okay?" Thinking of the scene where Xiaoqing was in danger on Phoenix Mountain just now, Bai Suzhen still felt a lingering fear. Although Xiaoqing was the third princess of the Dragon Palace in the East China Sea in her previous life, she is now just a little demon with hundreds of years of practice. Her magic power is not what it used to be. Once she encounters a demon as powerful as Kong Qianli again, she will definitely not be its opponent. However, with Xiaoqing's impulsive and fearless personality, I am afraid that even if she knows she can't win, she will never be fearless. This is exactly what Bai Suzhen is worried about, so she has to remind Xiaoqing.
"Sister, I know the seriousness of the matter. I won't joke with my life without permission, and I won't make you worry." Xiaoqing promised as if she knew Bai Suzhen's worries. At the end, she smiled slyly and added, "I want to grow old with you and accompany you for the rest of my life."
Bai Suzhen's face turned slightly red, she coughed dryly and said, "Let's go and see what happened to Miss Mei Niang." After that, she started walking.
Xiaoqing raised her eyebrows slightly, curled the corners of her lips, and muttered with a smile: "It turns out that my sister will blush when she hears sweet words." She smiled happily and quickly followed.
The author has something to say: I'm sorry for keeping you waiting for so long. I was really in a difficult situation.
