Chapter 150 - 150 Good Baby
150 Good Baby
Su Xiaoxiao cleaned his wound thoroughly, making sure to clean both his skin and flesh. In order to catch her, his arm hit the ground and the sand and dust entered his wound.
Jing Yi broke out in a cold sweat. His knuckles turned white, but he didn’t make a sound.
“You can endure pain quite well.”
The last person who could tolerate pain was Wei Ting.
Why did she always think of Wei Ting when she saw Jing Yi?
Were these two related? They didn’t look alike…
“I’m going to suture you. I’ve run out of the anesthetic, so I can only stitch you raw. It might hurt a little. Fortunately, there are only two stitches. I’ll be as quick as I can.”
Jing Yi nodded.
Su Xiaoxiao didn’t overestimate herself and her actions were quick.
Jing Yi stared fixedly at her. Before he could feel any pain, she had already cut off the thread.
“Okay, I’m done.” When Su Xiaoxiao gave Jing Yi a piece of candy, he was speechless.
The candy was wrapped in paper and there was still the warmth of her fingertips.
Jing Yi hated being treated like a child.
“You don’t want it?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.
“Yes.” Jing Yi held the candy tightly.
“Don’t get wet, don’t use too much force, and reduce the movement of your left arm. Don’t eat spicy food…” Su Xiaoxiao reminded him of some things to take note of.
“How many days will it take before you remove the stitches?” Jing Yi asked. He had been in the military camp before, so he knew about this kind of suture wound. After it healed, he would have to find a physician to remove the stitches in the flesh.
Su Xiaoxiao said, “I used a protein line for you. You don’t have to remove it.”
“Oh.” Jing Yi lowered his eyes.
Su Xiaoxiao wondered, “Why do I feel like you’re a little disappointed?”
Jing Yi pinched the candy she gave him and took out a brocade bag. He hesitated for a while before handing it to Su Xiaoxiao.
Su Xiaoxiao said, “You don’t have to pay.”
Jing Yi was speechless.

Wu Mu was waiting in the alley with a big square face.
Qing Xuan said nothing.
Wu Mu pondered and said, “Qing Xuan, do you think the Young Marquis… is too careless with that girl? I heard from Bai Ze that at first, he advised his cousin to be wary of her, but in the end, he was the first to let down his guard. He went up with her just like that, isn’t he afraid that the girl will do something to him?”
Qing Xuan rolled his eyes at him. “What can she do to the young duke?”
Wu Mu couldn’t put his finger on it. He just felt that when the Young Marquis was with that girl, he got attacked easily.
“She… she’s a physician! What if she poisons the young duke!”
Wu Mu finally found a reasonable guess and instantly felt that he was extremely smart!
Qing Xuan was about to say something when Jing Yi came over.
“Young Marquis!” Qing Xuan stepped forward and looked at his arm, wanting to ask how his injury was.
Jing Yi said, “She sewed the sleeve.”
Qing Xuan asked, “Who cares about your sleeves?
“Is your injury alright?” Qing Xuan asked.
“Yes, I’m fine,” Jing Yi said.
Qing Xuan looked at him suspiciously. He said that he was fine, but his expression… seemed to tell them that he was stabbed somewhere…
Soon, Bai Ze and Hong Luan returned in exasperation.
“He escaped!” Hong Luan said unhappily.
Bai Ze said, “I’m worried that he’ll come back and harm Young Marquis, so we rushed over to warn him. Hong Luan, take care of Young Marquis later, I’ll go after him.”
“No need,” Jing Yi said. “You won’t be able to catch up.”
Bai Ze frowned.
His Light-body Technique was the best among the four of them.
Jing Yi said lightly, “That person is Yuchi Xiu.”
Bai Ze fell silent.
Qing Xuan was puzzled, “Why did Yuchi Xiu come to Qingzhou? Isn’t he in the capital?”
Yuchi Xiu wasn’t from Great Zhou, but a Xianbei. He did not serve his country andwas an assassin of the Shadow Pavilion; he would work for whoever could afford the price.
A few years ago, someone had spent a lot of money to buy Old General Wei’s head, and Yuchi Xiu had accepted this mission.
But in the end, for some reason, he was actually subdued by the youngest son of the Wei family and became a secret guard of the Wei family.
When it came to the martial arts world, everyone said that this was a huge departure.
Wu Mu suddenly said, “Young Marquis, I have something… I haven’t said.”
Jing Yi instructed, “Speak.”
Wu Mu said, “I once saw a person on the official road of Apricot Flower Town. He looked very similar to that person. I thought I was wrong.”
...
Jing Yi’s eyes turned cold. “You mean… the youngest son of the Wei family?”
The four of them were puzzled. The Marquis was younger than that person. Did he have any obsession with calling him the youngest son of the Wei family?
Wu Mu did not deny it. He recalled, “At that time… he was with a village girl. Their actions were very intimate.”
At this point, Wu Mu paused and mustered his courage to look at his young duke.
