Chapter 271: Buy Medicine

Chapter 271

She slept on the outer side, her little feet kicking the brocade quilt, pouting her lips in dissatisfaction, and turned over with her eyes half-open and half-closed. Indistinctly, she saw a handsome and unparalleled face leaning in front of her eyes.

The man had an upright figure like a peak, with high eyebrows, deep eyes, thin and sexy moist lips, and a face so beautiful it was breathtaking, as if an immortal had descended to earth.

What made her heart tremble the most was that he actually lowered his head to kiss the tip of her nose.

She let out a soft cry, closed her eyes again, and fell into a dizzy sleep. She felt the kiss go from the tip of her nose all the way to her lips.

It was an extremely gentle and lingering kiss that left her mind blank.

She took a few deep breaths, thinking she was having a spring dream, otherwise how could the Eldest Prince appear in Ah Si's bedroom?

But the sensation before her eyes was too real. She reached out and touched the distinct side of his face.

"Eldest Prince..."

The man's thin lips left her lips.

Gu Ying suddenly calmed down, knowing that she was dreaming. She turned over again, hugged Ning Si in the quilt, and then fell fast asleep.

Zhao Changdu's face showed helplessness, and the corners of his mouth hooked up indulgently. He reached out and pinched the little girl's tender cheek, feeling a little unhappy in his heart.

"Do you know that I can't sleep without you?"

He came so late to pick her up, but she was sleeping with Ning Si.

It was only one day since they last met, yet she had already thrown her husband out of her mind. She really was a fickle little villain.

However, with Ning Si here, he couldn't do anything to her. He just watched the little girl's sleeping face for a while by the bed before silently getting up and leaving the room.

Let it go. Let her stay at the Ning family house for a few days to take care of Ning Si, then he’d come to pick her up and take her back to Qingjiang Manor, it won't be too late.

Nowadays, the two talked less.

He could see that she had a lot on her mind that weighed heavily on her.

If he didn't push her a little, he was afraid the little girl would never get over it in her lifetime.

As for Jiang Yin...

Zhao Changdu leaped onto the top of the Ning house wall, his deep eyes narrowed, he would kill him sooner or later.

Huai An happily drank the bone soup cooked by Yin Lan’s own hands. While pretending to be in pain, he called out.

Seeing that he was still agonized, Yin Lan suddenly came back to her senses and compassionately placed her hand on Huai An’s right leg that was almost broken. “General Huai, how do you feel? It’s been so long, is your injury still painful?”

Huai An had extremely thick skin. He bared his teeth and said, “Painful. The bone hurts badly. Yin Lan, help me.”

Yin Lan felt a little helpless as she looked at his injured leg, not knowing what to do. “How can I help?”

The soup had been simmered and medicine had been applied. With such a severe injury of a broken bone, she shouldn’t casually massage it.

She really didn't know what she could do to alleviate Huai An's pain a little.

Huai An glanced at her imperceptibly. Pretending to be uncomfortable, he knitted his brows and sighed, “I know you can’t do much. Just stay and chat with me to relieve my boredom. I feel very lonely recuperating alone in this yard.”

Hearing this, Yin Lan felt even more guilty.

Huai An was originally one of the Eldest Prince's generals with great prospects. Following the Eldest Prince, he could also earn prestige. But now, just because of her, he had injured his leg and could only lie idle in this small yard, unable to do anything...

She knew Huai An liked her. To be honest with herself, Huai An had nearly died for her sake. How could she not also have feelings for Huai An?

She was just afraid to readily accept him.

But if Huai An were to become disabled for life because of her and could no longer follow the Eldest Prince to build his merits, the only way she could compensate would be to marry him and take care of him for life.

She had seriously considered these matters for a long time.

"Alright, you speak."

Huai An looked up at her. "Why do you look unhappy?"

Yin Lan took a small bench and sat by the side of the reclining Huai An with her eyes falling indistinctly on his injured leg. "It's not that I'm unhappy. I just feel that something strange is going on recently between the Eldest Prince and Madam."

As a man, Huai An didn't notice anything. "Huh? What's wrong with the Eldest Prince and Madam?"

Yin Lan pursed her lips and raised her eyes to meet Huai An's. "I don't know why either. The Eldest Prince has suddenly become much colder towards Madam. I can also see that Madam feels bad inside, but Madam can be very stubborn sometimes, so she just bears it. The Eldest Prince doesn't come looking for Madam, and Madam won't take the initiative to find the Eldest Prince either. On the surface, they still look like a loving couple, but in reality, their hearts are not in one place."

"Why are their hearts not in one place?" Huai An didn't notice anything. Recently, under Yin Lan’s caring attention, he had been concentrating on recuperating from his injury and couldn’t spare any thoughts for anything else.

Yin Lan said, "I feel that Madam is hiding something from the Eldest Prince. The Eldest Prince also has an introverted personality. There will definitely be problems when neither person asks nor says anything to each other."

Huai An asked doubtfully, "You’re Madam’s personal maid, but don't even know what’s going on?"
