Chapter 748: Something Bad Happened!
Translator: Lordbluefire
The maid burst into tears. As soon as she uttered those words, Princess Daisy immediately interrupted her, saying, “Shut up!”
The maid immediately closed her mouth. Her upbringing taught her not to speak out of turn. However, her eyes looked at Ye Xie with a sense of grievance.
Ye Xie stared at the maid. He tightened his jaw and glanced at Daisy, understanding what had happened. He spoke directly, “You speak.”
The maid looked at Daisy. Daisy said directly, “I’m fine, really. It was this servant who spoke out of turn and offended Karl. He punished her. Karl wouldn’t do this under normal circumstances…”
She didn’t want to show her distressed side in front of the person she liked. Princess Daisy had her own pride. Over the years, every time Ye Xie asked her how she was doing, her response had always been ‘Things are very good.’
Ye Xie seemed to believe her and said, “Oh, as long as you’re okay.”
Daisy breathed a sigh of relief.
The maid wanted to speak, but Daisy’s gaze stopped her. Daisy also didn’t want to trouble Ye Xie.
Even if they knew the truth, what could they do to interfere with the affairs of Country Y?
Daisy lowered her eyes, a hint of gloom flickering in her gaze.
But in the next moment, Ye Xie suddenly lifted her skirt! Daisy was startled and instinctively protected her knees, but Ye Xie grabbed her wrist, and his gaze fell directly on her legs, covered in red whip marks!
Daisy had fair skin, being of Caucasian descent, so those whip marks were particularly noticeable, strikingly horrifying.
Daisy’s body stiffened. At that moment, she felt as if she had been stripped naked, without any sense of security. A feeling of humiliation welled up inside her, and tears streamed down her face.
Upon seeing those legs, an inexplicable rage surged within Ye Xie.
He wanted to kill Karl, but at this moment, he also wanted to scold Daisy in anger.
After all, why didn’t she tell him when things had come to this point? But in the next moment, a warm droplet fell onto the back of his hand. He looked up and met Daisy’s teary gaze. At that moment, all the reproachful words got stuck in his throat.
Ye Xie looked at Daisy in this state and sighed. He suddenly lifted Daisy up horizontally and walked straight into the palace.
This was Daisy’s palace, and Ye Xie had often come here before, so he was very familiar with the layout. Even after all these years, there hadn’t been many changes.
He quickly found her bedroom and placed her on the sofa. Then he asked, “The medicine box is still in its original place, right?”
Daisy nodded.
When Ye Xie was studying in Country Y, he often faced bullying from the royal family due to his Chinese heritage.
Ye Xie was not one to be pushed around and always fought back. When he was younger, not knowing how to be tactful, he would directly engage in fights against multiple opponents, often ending up with injuries all over his body.
That was when Daisy would help him with his wounds.
Ye Xie still remembered that Daisy would cry while applying the medicine, telling him not to fight anymore, to be more cautious and not run away. The young Princess Daisy was still innocent back then.
Her crying appearance softened Ye Xie’s heart.
He loved seeing her cry, seeing her worried for him, which made him even more rebellious, always getting into fights with those people.
Later, they became scared of him and stopped picking on him, but he continued to chase after them…
In a daze, those memories had already passed for ten years…
But returning to this familiar room, Ye Xie inexplicably felt as if it was a world away.
He walked towards the left side and indeed saw Daisy’s distinctive medicine box.
He took out the medicine box and opened it, only to find that there weren’t many medications inside.
He was slightly stunned and asked, “Where are the medicines for treating wounds?”
Daisy remained silent, but the maid spoke up, “Since Mr. Ye left, the princess no longer needs to administer medicine to others, so there was no need to prepare them.”
Ye Xie,
He turned his head and saw Daisy’s complexion gradually turning red. Her eyes were still teary, but they couldn’t conceal her rosy cheeks.
She coughed and glared at the maid.
The maid smirked and said, “I’ll make a call to have the hospital send some medicine.”
After the maid left, Ye Xie went to the bathroom, found a clean towel, dampened it, and then came back. He half-squatted in front of Princess Daisy and proceeded to gently wipe away the bloodstains from her wounds with the damp towel.
His movements were very gentle.
As he wiped Daisy’s leg, it made her feel as if he was touching the core of her heart. It felt itchy, and this sensation somehow numbed her, as if the wounds weren’t as painful anymore…
Daisy suddenly spoke up, “I remember watching a TV show in China before.
The male protagonist got injured on the battlefield without anesthesia, and the female protagonist said she was his anesthesia. So she kissed him, and the male protagonist seemed to really feel no pain…”
Daisy had criticized the show to Su Muxi back then, saying it was too fake.
But now, she couldn’t help but feel…
Before she could finish her sentence, she saw Ye Xie looking at her with a smile that seemed like a smile, “So, are you in pain now, my leading lady?”
Daisy,
Her face turned as red as a baboon’s butt in an instant.
Just when she was feeling embarrassed, the maid suddenly rushed in, “Princess, something bad happened!”
