Chapter 556 The Hidden Intention of Doctor Qi
“I have hurt my face!” Chu Liuchen said and took it for granted. He reached out to hold her delicate hands fumbling for something and let them touch his face.
“Are you really hurt? Then, then let me light a lamp to have a look and apply some medicine to it!” Shao Wanru fumbled for it subconsciously and wanted to push him away and get up.
However, with her slender waist being held, she could only lift her neck a little, and could not get up at all.
“Your Highness …” Shao Wanru pushed his chest and said.
Chu Liuchen closed his eyes and hugged her tightly in his arms. The body in his arms was soft with a light comfortable fragrance, which made him feel very relaxed. Seeing that she was still struggling, he simply pressed her head into his arms and whispered, “Don’t move, I am very tired!”
Shao Wanru’s head was pressed tightly against his chest and she could feel the heaving of his chest. Now her neck could not move either.
Since he was unwilling to check, it seemed to be not serious. She could not struggle to free herself, because her slender waist and head were suppressed. She could not move at all, with his gentle and even breathing in her ears. Shao Wanru’s fingers moved a little, but she found that she could only move slightly now.
She had no choice but to lie on his chest still, half asleep in a daze.
In a daze, she felt that a hand seemed to be gently touching her hair, as if one was caressing his most precious treasure. The window was opened slightly and the wind was a little cold at night. She could not help but lean toward the warm place and snuggled up to it tightly. Then, her breathing became steady.
Feeling that Shao Wanru had fallen asleep, Chu Liuchen opened his beautiful eyes, sat up, and carefully held Shao Wanru to put her on his legs. His eyesight was excellent, so he could clearly see the beautiful face of the girl in his arms, even under the faint moonlight.
After quietly watching her for a while, he gently gave a kiss on her beautiful face which was as white as jade. A faint smile slowly appeared on his handsome face with some cruelty and malice. A trace of gentleness broke through the cruelty, and he seemed to be again the handsome man in front of people, who was just like from paintings.
He carried Shao Wanru to the couch, and gently put her down. Then, he covered her with the quilt and casually brushed away the strands of hair on her face. Then, he leaned against the couch and looked down at the little girl on the pillow.
When did he begin to have such an idea? He didn’t know!
When he had first met the little girl who had been smashing the bridal sedan chair, she had been so young but so decisive. At that time, he had really been bored and only wanted to have some fun.
To have some fun, either others’ or his, he, who was totally self-abandonment, would not care about his own life, and certainly not other people’s life.
It was such a lively little girl who had run into his life. She broke through his years of silence, and made him seem to become a little livelier with her.
He remembered she was not afraid of his cruelty just now, and the smile on his lips became more elegant and gentler. He lowered his head and gave another gentle kiss on the corner of her lips, which was very light and soft, as if the person in front of him was his most precious thing.
In fact, he had asked for her opinion, and she had agreed at that time. So she could not go back on her word, even if she wanted to do so. Two years ago, she had already been engaged to him, and she could only belong to him. If anyone dared to rob his baby, he would definitely make them die without a burial place.
Maybe it was because of the heat, or the bad way she slept, Shao Wanru’s white and tender hand reached out of the quilt and moved a few times. She put it outside the quilt subconsciously. It was white and tender and looked very beautiful.
Since she was so lovely, Chu Liuchen thought that he didn’t have to be so polite. Just now the comb had hurt his face and he still felt pain, so he had to be compensated.
He held Shao Wanru’s small hand putting outside, put it to his lips, and bit it hard.
“Ah!” Shao Wanru screamed in pain. She suddenly sat up and held the hand that she had grabbed back, awake from half asleep.
“Your Highness!”
“I’m going to leave. Sleep tight!” Chu Liuchen said with a smile. He pushed her with his finger, and Shao Wanru, who had just sat up, was pushed down by him.
Then she silently watched him turn and leave. The night was dark, so she could not see a trace of childlike pride on his handsome face.
She silently moved her body and put her hand to her lips to blow. She didn’t know how seriously her hand had been bitten. Was this man really born in the year of dog?
He bit her awake but said nothing else. It was really strange!
She turned over, felt sleepy, and gradually lost consciousness. Who knew how many strange quirks this master had? This was a temperamental master, so it was really tiring to be the subordinate of this master!
Thinking of this, Shao Wanru didn’t notice that there was a faint smile on her face at the moment. This time, she didn’t dream and slept until dawn…
Xiao Xuanzi had been waiting in the yard, and he finally saw his master coming at night. He stepped forward anxiously and said as he peeped at his face, “Master, your hair is wet. You must dry it. Doctor Qi has already arrived. Please let him take your pulse first!”
“I’m fine!” Chu Liuchen slowly walked towards the stairs.
Doctor Qi was under the tree in the yard. He stood up and said with an unkind look on his face, “How can you be fine? Prince, you will have a splitting headache again. I have put much effort to treat Prince, but this is not for you to harm yourself. If so, I’d better leave early so that I won’t be irritated to death by you!
Anyone who was about to sleep would be in a bad mood after being waked up, not to mention hearing that this master was torturing himself.
“I’m really fine!” Chu Liuchen turned around and walked towards the tree. He sat on the stone bench and stretched out his hand, “If you don’t believe me, you can feel my pulse!”
Qi Jue reached out his hand in a bad mood and put it on the hand that Chu Liuchen had stretched out.
Xiao Xuanzi fetched a clean towel and wanted to dry his master’s hair. But when he reached out to touch it, he found that it had almost been dry. If it hadn’t been dried up before, it should still be wet now. Xiao Xuanzi couldn’t help but have an idea and his face betrayed a smile. He took the towel away, and was as happy as a cat having secretly tasted fish.
Qi Jue put his hand on Chu Liuchen’s pulse. After careful consideration, he put on it again in quite disbelief.
Xiao Xuanzi had come back again. Seeing Qi Jue put down his hand, he hurriedly asked, “Doctor Qi, how is our master?”
“Nothing serious. Just take his time to recuperate like before!” Qi Jue glanced at Chu Liuchen several times in surprise. He had worked for Chu Liuchen for a period of time, so he obviously knew that every time Chu Liuchen couldn’t control himself, he would abuse himself and almost immediately become bedridden the next day.
This was also the reason why he had been ill for a long time and not recovered before.
Although it was difficult to get rid of the congenital disease, the relapse of his illness was also an important reason. If he went on like this for a long time, he would definitely die young.
But since two years ago, this master had not abused himself again and begun to receive treatment peacefully. Unexpectedly, he lost his control again today, which also shocked Doctor Qi. He hurried over, but now he found that Chu Liuchen was fine, so he looked at Xiao Xuanzi with doubts in his mind.
He wondered whether Xiao Xuanzi had made a mistake.
Xiao Xuanzi smiled happily and turned a blind eye to Doctor Qi’s doubts. He knew that his master must have been to visit Fifth Miss. Fifth Miss was really capable to calm his master down, and this was a good thing. Did it mean that his master would not have uncontrollable self-abuse and violent behaviors in the future?
Ignoring the eager look in Qi Jue’s eyes, Xiao Xuanzi said, “Master, it’s getting late. Please take a rest first.”
Chu Liuchen nodded and turned to walk inside.
“Since Your Highness is fine, I can have something else to do. I will live here these days too,” Qi Jue said it for granted. He had long wanted to come to Yuhui Nunnery, but Prince had kept refusing him. Now there was such a good opportunity, so he did not want to give up. The way he smiled was just like Xiao Xuanzi.
He showed the same pride and the same smile as if he was like a fox which had just stolen a chicken.
“You want to stay here for a few days?” Chu Liuchen turned to look at him. His eyes looked extremely beautiful under the lamplight. Even Qi Jue had to admit that this Prince’s appearance really made all the men in the world feel ashamed.
“Yes, yes, just stay for a few days, and then I will leave. Prince, if you go down the mountain first, I will stay for another while, since I rarely come to Yuhui Nunnery. I have heard that although Yuhui Nunnery also receives male pilgrims, there are many rules. This is the best place, the best one!” Qi Jue reached out to touch the stone table.
Now that Chu Liuchen was fine, he had to think of that matter related to his family. On the way here, he also saw clearly that this was already the inner area of Yuhui Nunnery, where men were basically not allowed to come. Only the noble sons of the royal family like Chu Liuchen were allowed to move in at midnight.
If he didn’t take advantage of this situation to move in, he wouldn’t bear the name Qi Jue.
Not far away, he also saw clearly that there seemed to be the place where those nuns lived, but he didn’t know which yard Mingqiu lived in.
But no matter which yard she lived in, it must be in the Yuhui Nunnery. Thinking of this, Qi Jue felt happy and need to thank Xiao Xuanzi for having an excuse to send for him here.
In terms of this point, Xiao Xuanzi became more agreeable to his eyes. He remembered that Xiao Xuanzi had asked him for a pill before. When he was free, he would make one for him.
“You can live here. If you need to do something, just wait till I leave, and don’t live here too long.” Chu Liuchen squinted at him and walked to the main room, followed closely by Xiao Xuanzi.
“Okay, okay. I will follow Your Highness’s order.” Qi Jue nodded happily.
Chu Liuchen did not pay attention to this man who was smiling in a silly way. After entering the inner room, Xiao Xuanzi could see more clearly under the lamplight. His master’s hair was indeed dry, and he seemingly would not get sick any more. Xiao Xuanzi almost beamed with smiles, and then he turned to look at the expression on Chu Liuchen’s face. But when he saw the scars on Chu Liuchen’s face, his heart missed a beat and his face suddenly became pale!
He threw himself to the front of Chu Liuchen and grabbed his robe, then he knelt down and cried in horror, “Master, you… what’s wrong with your face? This… what is this…? Who cut your face with something?”
There were several scars on his jade-like handsome face. It seemed that he had been scratched by something. One of the scars was particularly deep and had some broken skin, but fortunately, there was no bleeding. If Empress Dowager saw this, he would lose his life!
