Chapter 73: Falling into His Eyes
After much hesitation, she finally accepted the handkerchief that Yu Shiyan offered.
We can't possibly go against Little White Flower's wishes.
"Let's investigate further, know ourselves and our enemy, and have a clear understanding of the situation..."
Yu Shiyan blinked, then his fingertips suddenly touched her face: "You're injured."
Yuan Siyin was startled. She didn't know whether to dodge or not, so she could only let him touch her.
"Let's apply the medicine first."
"good."
She opened her mouth, but forgot everything she wanted to say and obediently followed him into the house.
If Changbai Palace is extremely desolate, then the Mu Prince's Mansion is far too lively and bustling.
As dusk fell, the entire Mu Prince's Mansion was brightly lit, making the lush flowers outside the windows appear even brighter than during the day.
A small bridge spans a flowing stream, pavilions and towers stand tall, and green parrots chatter under the eaves, creating a scene of tranquility yet also a touch of life.
Bai Tu brought servants from somewhere, and after giving them a few instructions, they moved around the courtyard and cleaned up the mess outside, making it impossible to tell that anyone had been there.
It was obvious that all of this had been carefully arranged, and someone of his status would certainly not be entitled to such a privilege.
Yu Shiyan stared blankly at the red bean branches swaying in the wind, then withdrew his hand and closed the carved wooden window.
The room was quite warm. Ziyuan lit a calming incense stick, and the smoke rose up, emitting a faint fragrance, just like the incense in the carriage.
Yuan Siyin held the smoothly polished bronze mirror and examined it for a long time, but couldn't find the wound.
What, has the innocent girl learned to trick her?
That doesn't make sense.
Thinking this, Yu Shiyan sat down in front of her, holding a damp towel in his hands: "Look up."
Yuan Siyin raised her chin as instructed, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw Ziyuan smiling as she closed the door and left.
Yuan Siyin: ?
Why would someone laugh at such a delicate moment?
It's creepy.
Seeing that she was distracted, Yu Shiyan intentionally or unintentionally brushed his thumb against the scar on her jaw.
"Ah! Yu Shiyan!"
The green parrot under the eaves trembled its wings in fright and obediently shut its mouth.
"Hmm, it seems this is where the injury occurred."
He calmly responded, his movements becoming much gentler, but no matter how gentle he was, it was no longer effective against Yuan Siyin.
There's a saying that goes, "You won't feel pain until you know you're hurt."
Yuan Siyin covered her chin, tears welling up in her eyes.
At first, I didn't feel anything, but the price was that the aftereffects were too great.
"The pain stopped after applying the medicine."
"I won't go; it will get better on its own."
Yuan Siyin took a deep breath and waved her hand, "I'm afraid you'll kill me and it will hurt me to death."
If he had really gone all out, she would already be one of those people lying on the ground.
As Yu Shiyan thought this, he gently pinched her chin with his jade-like hand and chuckled softly.
Despite the clear and bright appearance, Yuan Siyin inexplicably detected a hint of mockery in her voice.
"It won't hurt."
He leaned forward slightly, casting a large shadow over her, which made Yuan Siyin appear somewhat weaker.
"It's a lie, it will hurt." She was particularly serious about this issue.
Yu Shiyan didn't speak, his face getting closer and closer until he could see every single one of her long eyelashes, and even see her reflection in his eyes.
A warm breath followed, extremely light, yet so hot it seemed to scald her skin.
Yuan Siyin wanted to avoid his approach, but her body wouldn't obey her commands, and she could only sit still in place.
Yu Shiyan gently stroked her soft, dark hair, as if he were playing with a beloved treasure, or as if he were stirring up the most secret desire in his heart.
