Chapter 413
Mu Mingtang nodded slightly, her eyes still very alert. Xie Xuanchen didn’t explain anything before he got up again and carried her back to the room.
Someone would clear the dining table later anyways.
Mu Mingtang was a little wary when she saw the bed, especially when Xie Xuanchen said nothing and zoomed straight towards it. Mu Mingtang’s scalp itched with nervousness at the implication and she was about to say something, but he merely placed her on the bed and left without further delay.
Mu Mingtang was about to speak, but she was caught off guard by this turn of events.
Could it be that she was thinking too much?
Mu Mingtang was swinging between suspicion and relaxation when she suddenly saw Xie Xuanchen came back, still holding a bunch of ointment in hand. He saw her round eyes staring at him, shook the porcelain bottles in his hand and said, “These are all kinds of wound medicines. Some of their effects of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis are not bad.”
After Xie Xuanchen finished speaking, he pursed his lips and said, “I was drunk yesterday and I didn’t take my strength into account, so I’m very sorry. I applied the medicine when you were sleeping twice a day yesterday. Now, it’s time to apply another layer of it.”
Mu Mingtang tried her best to keep her face sullen. Indeed, what she felt when she was sleeping was not a dream, then. The person who helped her apply the medicine was indeed Xie Xuanchen.
According to this, if she had taken a bath as well, was he the one that…
Mu Mingtang blushed and sat on the bed, not knowing how to react. And Xie Xuanchen didn’t seem shy at all, even asking in a negotiating tone, “Which bottle do you want me to apply first?”
Mu Mingtang felt that if she didn’t speak again, she would be embarrassed. She bit her lip and accumulated her energy for a long time before she finally said in a weak and erratic voice, “You…were you really drunk yesterday?”
When Xie Xuanchen heard her question, he nodded seriously, “I was truly very drunk, but what I did was merely something that I wanted to do as it was brimming in my subconsciousness all this time before it just ended up happening.”
Mu Mingtang originally spoke to ease the shyness, but Xie Xuanchen admitting it outright made her even more embarrassed.
Xie Xuanchen saw that her neck was reddening to no end before his face broke into an eye smile and said, “Alright, we are husband and wife already. Sooner or later, such a day would come to pass. To be precise, this day should have happened long ago. If you are embarrassed, you can just close your eyes, I will apply the medication first. I wasn’t paying attention to my strength yesterday, which ended up with you sustaining a good number of bruises. If I don’t try to disperse them now, you’re going to be in pain tomorrow.”
Suddenly, a slender and powerful palm was placed in front of her eyes and her sight fell into a semi state of darkness. Admittedly, this man was really an animal who was good at deceiving himself and others. It seemed that removing her sight out of the equation relaxed her a lot more.
Mu Mingtang slowly relaxed. She was about to lie down with Xie Xuanchen’s softly exerting strength when she suddenly realised that something was amiss, “Why am I the one blinded? Shouldn’t it be you who should close your eyes?”
