Chapter 868: Treat Me As a Tool
Xie Shihao knew what Feng Qing wanted him to do. After all, he studied medicine at Capital University. Hence, he said awkwardly, “If you don’t let me get off the bed, how can I eat, drink, and pee?”
At this moment, Little Wu said seriously, “Young Master, don’t worry. If you want to go to the toilet, feel free to look for me. I’ll carry you there.”
Upon hearing this, Xie Shihao raised his head from the pillow and glanced at Little Wu. Then, he grabbed the pillow and threw it at Little Wu. Little Wu stood on the spot and didn’t dodge, allowing the pillow to hit her.
Feng Qing suggested, “How about this? I’ll get Xie Qi to arrange a male servant for you to be in charge of taking care of your food and daily life. How about that?”
Xie Shihao shook his head and rejected, “No, I’ll feel awkward if a man watches me go to the toilet.”
This didn’t work, that didn’t work either. In the end, Feng Qing could only turn to the man beside her. Xie Jiuhan had not said a word since he came in. He stood at the side and quietly watched Xie Shihao shout. Now that Feng Qing had asked him for help, Xie Jiuhan had a reaction. He instructed coldly, “Xie Qi, send two reliable people to send Xiao Hao back to the Capital tomorrow morning and inform Gu Qingye to serve him in the Xie Manor.”
Xie Qi : “???”
Hearing this order, Xie Shihao’s face lit up. He hurriedly flattered, “Hehe, Little Uncle knows me the best. No one is more suitable than Gu Qingye.”
Seeing that he was so excited, Feng Qing’s large eyes swirled with light, as if she understood something. Hence, she deliberately said, “Xiao Hao is so seriously injured. It’s a long way from here to the Capital. Let’s send him back after the assessment is over.”
Xie Shihao’s expression froze. He pricked up his ears and said, “Little Aunt, I’m already so injured. I definitely can’t participate in the assessment. Why don’t you send me back?”
Hearing him say this, Feng Qing’s eyes darted around. She sat by the bed and lowered her body to whisper in Xie Shihao’s ear, “Xiao Hao, do you want to get first place in the Sacred Island assessment?”
Xie Shihao’s entire body froze. A few seconds later, he pulled his face out of the pillow and looked at Feng Qing with question marks in his eyes. He didn’t understand what she meant, but he didn’t say anything. Instead, he buried his face in the pillow again. Seeing him like this, Feng Qing and Xie Jiuhan looked at each other and left.
A few minutes later, the room was silent. Xie Shihao buried his face in the pillow and planned to sleep. However, his lumbar and ankle joints keep aching. The sizzling pain made him unable to sleep peacefully. Hence, he could only change his position and sleep again.
However, just as he turned around, he saw someone standing in the corner of the bed from the corner of his eye. Xie Shihao was shocked and hurriedly looked at the corner. He saw Little Wu standing there motionless like a statue.
Xie Shihao raised his eyebrows. “Hey, why are you still here?”
He thought that Little Wu had left with Feng Qing just now. After all, Little Wu was Feng Qing’s secret guard. She had only received Feng Qing’s mission at the last minute and stayed behind to protect him. He didn’t expect that she would actually stay here and not leave. The most terrifying thing was that Little Wu didn’t even breathe. If not for the fact that he could see with his eyes, he wouldn’t have felt that there was anyone else in the room.
Faced with Xie Shihao’s doubts, Little Wu remained expressionless. She replied mechanically, “Young Master, I’ve already said just now that I’ll be responsible for you. At least, I’ll follow you like a shadow before we leave the Sacred Island.”
Xie Shihao’s face darkened. “I don’t need you to take care of me!”
Little Wu continued, “Young Master, you don’t have to treat me as a woman, much less a man. Just ignore me usually. When you’re in danger or need care, I’ll naturally appear.”
Hearing her say this, Xie Shihao asked curiously, “You’re not a man or a woman. Then what are you?”
Little Wu replied calmly, “Young Master can treat me as a tool.”
Xie Shihao laid on the bed and glared at Little Wu. “You, get lost. I don’t need your care. Besides, how can I sleep when you’re watching by the side?”
Little Wu replied, “Don’t worry, Young Master. I’ve undergone special concealment training. As long as you close your eyes and don’t think about me, you won’t feel my existence, and I won’t affect your rest.”
Xie Shihao said unhappily, “How can I not think of you? As long as I close my eyes, my brain will involuntarily think of you. How can I sleep like this?”
