Ye Jinsu had seen Ning Yunke's face a few times, but had also seen his expression. Laughter, annoyance, frown, or pursed lips...
The more he saw, the more he couldn't figure out which one was the real Ning Yunyin.
She recalled the first time she saw him at Ning Prince Mansion, standing at the entrance. The corners of her lips curled up into a faint smile, and her smile was as warm as jade. It was as if no matter what time, it would always be like this in the spring.
After that, he saw him making progress in his own yard. His hair was black and his clothes were green. After a few days, this person had changed. His eyes were bright and teasing, tainted with a cunning aura.
At the time, she had thought that the fox had finally revealed a bit of its tail.
Unexpectedly, this person was not a fox, he was clearly a wolf.
The sheepskin was draped, so was the fox skin.
Ye Jinxiu rubbed between her eyebrows and felt that she was asking for trouble. She opened her mouth and explained to the stunned Meng Lan, "It's nothing, I'm just asking."
How could a person like Ning Yunyin be easily seen through?
Meng Lan's eyes fell on Ye Jinsu. In the end, she didn't say anything and just nodded, preparing to leave.
However, when they reached the door, Meng Lan suddenly said, "Miss, you may not know, but about a month ago, Your Highness was in a very bad mood."
"This servant doesn't know why, but I have a bold guess that it might be related to Miss." Meng Lan said softly.
More than a month ago?
Time continued to flow forward. A month ago, he had been quarreling with Ning Yunyin. The time he hurt his hand.
Ye Jinsu's face was slightly black. He still had the face to be in a bad mood?
He was the one who rushed to the door to denounce him, and the one who hurt him in anger was him, did he feel wronged?
"What are you trying to say?" Ye Jinxiu asked snappily.
Meng Lan looked at Ye Jinsu's face and realized that it was probably something unpleasant. Sighing, Meng Lan opened her mouth, "This servant has no other intentions, it's just that this servant has served the Prince for so many years, I've never seen him like this."
"I presume that in the prince's heart, Miss is a very important person."
Meng Lan's voice was very soft and floated in the quiet room, lingering for a long time.
Ye Jinxiu frowned. Her thoughts were scattered by this light sentence. Something was pushed gently in her heart and it began to crack, teetering on the verge of collapse.
This feeling was too baffling, like a lump of cotton stuck in his heart, suffocating and unsettling.
But she couldn't help herself.
Another sleepless night.
Perhaps he had slept enough before, but Ye Jinsu did not have the slightest bit of sleepiness. After he had moved his body and realized that the wound was unaffected, Ye Jinsu got up from the bed without hesitation and left the room, walking into the yard.
She felt that the house might have been tangled up by the words she had just spoken. It made her feel that her mood was unsettled, and her entire mind was filled with the thoughts of a reclusive Ning Yun.
She had to go out and cool down.
However, it was still summer, and the weather was still hot. It had been a few days since it had rained. Some of the leaves had already been rolled up by the sun. The weather was a bit hot and stuffy.
On the contrary, it was getting hotter outside.
Ye Jinsu walked under a big locust tree and sat down with a random fan. The sky was filled with stars, the air was filled with the scent of locust flowers, and the cicadas were chirping incessantly.
Ye Jinsu wanted to raise her head to look at the stars in the sky, but the wound on her neck made it almost impossible for her to raise her head. She could only sit on the stone bench and stare at the locust flowers that had fallen from the dark sky.
It was just like the smell on Ning Yunyin's body, the smell on his body when they first met each other. It was a scent that could make people feel at ease. It was faint, and sometimes even faintly discernible. However, Ye Jinsu could always smell a trace of this scent from his body.
Ye Jinsu's face raised two suspicious red clouds, which were barely visible in the dim moonlight. There was no one around. Ye Jinsu suddenly reached out her hand to touch her soft lips.
He immediately withdrew it as if it was scalding his hand.
Ning Yunyin's words from that day were still fresh in his mind. "Make a mark."
Ye Jinxiu's face turned red again. She couldn't bear the scorching heat anymore, so she covered her face with her hands. Her cold fingers were able to ease the heat on her face. Ye Jinsu couldn't help but think, only after marriage can I do this?
He had already kissed her, was he prepared to take responsibility?
Ye Jinxiu was very angry. He was obviously the one who acted on his own accord and ruined her reputation. Although no one had seen it, he might have thought of this plan and decided to marry himself first.
However, when she thought of this, she was not as angry as she was now.
Ye Jinsu slapped her face, trying to get rid of those charming thoughts in her head.
The more he thought about it, the more askew he became.
It must have been too hot tonight.
In the morning, when Xiao Hong entered the room with a bottle of water for washing her face, she saw Ye Jinsu sitting by the window with two dark circles under her eyes, looking haggard. Xiao Hong was so frightened that it wanted to call a doctor, but was stopped by Ye Jinsu.
The analgesic effect of the medicine on his neck had lost its effect. At this moment, his neck was in pain. Ye Jinxiu was speechless and could only gesticulate with her hands and feet. After a long time of gesticulating, Little Red finally understood that Ye Jinsu meant that there was no need to go to a doctor.
After changing the pill again, Xiao Hong took advantage of the medicinal properties of the pill and hurriedly served breakfast. Only then did Ye Jinsu open her mouth to speak, "Did you say when my injury will recover?"
If she kept holding it in like this, she was going to suffocate to death.
Xiao Hong looked at the bitter and resentful expression on Ye Jinsu's face and chuckled. "It won't take too long. These are all good medicines. Miss Meng Lan said that in at most three days, we won't have to stop talking and eating."
"That's what Dr. Liu said, don't worry Miss."
Ye Jinxiu could only nod her head and poke listlessly at the food in her mouth. From the previous night until now, Ning Yunxiao had been appearing in her mind from time to time. Ye Jinsu suspected that he had cast some sort of curse on her.
Xiao Hong, on the other hand, went out and came back to report, "Miss, Miss Si Xiang came over. She even brought a doctor with her, saying that she came to check on Miss's injuries."
Ye Jinsu was now in a very bad mood. She snappily said, "Let her go. The doctors won't keep her. They won't accept even a single gift."
She was well aware of what Si Xiang was here for.
She had been injured for so many days, and the whole House of Ye seemed to have isolated itself. There was no one left to see or invite a doctor. Everyone was waiting for him to die, but they didn't expect that he would survive.
Seeing that this was a good opportunity, Si Xiang decided to rope him in.
Xiao Hong understood Ye Jinsu's meaning and turned around, preparing to ask Si Xiang to leave.
However, after a while, there was another commotion outside, and the door was forcefully pushed open. Si Xiang stood at the door and saw Ye Jinsu drinking her porridge safe and sound, a smile blossoming on her face.
"It's great that young miss is fine. I've been worried about you for the past few days, so I specially brought a doctor over for you."
