"Okay~ But I don't like him." Nan Zhiyun added, afraid that Yu Jingchen would misunderstand her.
"I know, don't worry, I won't overthink it." Yu Jingchen knew, of course, that Nan Zhiyun had no feelings for Luo Yuncheng.
Actually, he used to genuinely believe that Luo Yuncheng's feelings for Nan Zhiyun were completely sincere, and that she was the only one for him. However, with the return of those memories yesterday, he realized that the Luo Yuncheng in his second life was just a power-hungry individual. Compared to his interests, Nan Zhiyun ultimately meant nothing to him. If he didn't have the memories of his second life, he probably would have truly been deceived by Luo Yuncheng.
In his first life, Luo Yuncheng feigned deep affection for Nan Zhiyun because Nan Zhiyun's existence posed no threat to him.
In his second life, Luo Yuncheng was only targeted by himself and then completely gave up on him, so what was he anyway?
Yu Jingchen narrowed his eyes slightly. Luo Yuncheng, if he remembered correctly...
He still has designs on Nan Zhiyun, doesn't he... and that Jiang Ji too... Ha, there really are hidden talents around me.
"Your Majesty, what are you thinking about?" Nan Zhiyun noticed that Yu Jingchen hadn't made any move, so she spoke up to disturb him.
Yu Jingchen snapped out of his reverie and gently patted Nan Zhiyun's head. "It's nothing. Are you still in a lot of pain? I'll help you apply the medicine in a bit." The reason he didn't have the palace maid apply the medicine for her today was because he knew this young girl was easily embarrassed.
"It hurts so much! Your Majesty, you must never do that again!" Nan Zhiyun got excited as soon as she started talking about it.
"Okay, let's not do it like this anymore, but yesterday it was clearly Xiaoyun'er who refused to beg for mercy. If you had just said one word, none of those things would have happened." Yu Jingchen was really furious yesterday.
"I was wrong..." Nan Zhiyun knew she was in the wrong.
"It's all my fault. I didn't talk to you properly. I won't do it again next time." Yu Jingchen also reflected on his actions. Nan Zhiyun's current temperament was mostly due to him, so he had been a bit too irrational yesterday.
The little girl felt extremely guilty when she made a mistake and didn't dare to beg for forgiveness. I should have talked to her nicely instead of hitting her.
"Mmm," Nan Zhiyun nestled against Yu Jingchen's neck.
Yu Jingchen held him in one arm and gently wrapped his other arm around Nan Zhiyun's waist, carrying her back to the palace.
The palace maid brought over the ointment and other medicines. Yu Jingchen put Nan Zhiyun down and let her sit directly in his lap. Then he pulled her hand out; the mark hadn't faded much and was still a bit red and swollen.
Although she only used three strokes, she did use some force, and it's normal that Nan Zhiyun's delicate skin couldn't withstand it.
"It should be fine after applying it today. If it still hurts a lot later, just let me know," Yu Jingchen said.
"Mmm," Nan Zhiyun obediently agreed. The ointment was applied to her hands, feeling cool and refreshing, which was quite comfortable.
"Your Majesty, Consort Shu fell today and seems to have hurt herself. She wouldn't allow the imperial physician to be called. Would Your Majesty like to take a look at her?" This was the same palace maid from before.
Upon hearing that Nan Zhiyun had just fallen, Yu Jingchen immediately frowned.
"Fell? How did you fall? Where did you fall? How did you serve you?" Yu Jingchen was about to explode when the palace maid immediately knelt down.
