Chapter 494 Thick-skinned



“Isn’t pity also a manifestation of love? Otherwise, why would he only pity me and not you?” Xie Chang’an said this with a bit more confidence.

Chenxi wasn't angry at Xie Chang'an's words. He just glanced at the bed and commented objectively, "This bed would be too crowded for three people."

Xie Chang'an's face turned ashen.

"Don't even think about it!"

Chenxi found Xie Chang'an's behavior baffling. Why was he thinking this? Was it really that interesting for three people to squeeze into one bed?

“I didn’t mean to,” he said.

Xie Chang'an: ......

Xie Chang'an said nothing more. After washing up, he practiced shooting in the yard.

He had a lot of anger to vent.

After practicing for about half an hour, more and more people were moving around in the inn. He put away his gun and went back to his room to wake Ye Jingchen up.

He now knows that Ye Jingchen has a severe temper when he wakes up, and he has long been used to Ye Jingchen's temper when he wakes up and can deal with it skillfully.

After shaking him awake and exchanging blows a few times, Ye Jingchen was fully sober.

While washing up, Ye Jingchen kept looking at Xie Chang'an, or more accurately, staring at the position of Xie Chang'an's lips, as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.

"What's wrong?" Xie Chang'an touched his lips, asking somewhat guiltily.

Could it be that he was caught stealing a kiss from Ye Jingchen?

However, once Ye Jingchen falls asleep, he sleeps very soundly and is completely still. He is very difficult to wake up on his own unless someone calls him.

"Your lips are very red, an unnatural red," Ye Jingchen said to Xie Chang'an, suppressing a laugh.

It looks like you've applied lip rouge.

However, Xie Chang'an is a grown man, so it's impossible for him to wear lip rouge.

However, on the other hand, Xie Chang'an, with his red lips and white teeth, looked exceptionally handsome!

There was a bronze mirror on the dressing table in the room. Xie Chang'an picked up the bronze mirror and looked at himself. He was startled by his reflection.

His lips were indeed very red, a very bright red, and looked quite abnormal.

"I'm going to find Mr. Li," Xie Chang'an said, and left the room.

"Wait for me, I'll go with you!" Ye Jingchen had just finished washing up and chased after him.

However, Xie Chang'an walked ahead in a hurry, showing no intention of waiting for him.

When Ye Jingchen arrived at Mr. Li's room, he overheard Mr. Li asking Xie Chang'an, "Why did you put the ointment for His Highness the Crown Prince's frostbite on your lips?"

Ye Jingchen stopped at the door, glanced at Xie Chang'an's lips with a strange expression, and then touched his own face.

Although Xie Chang'an applied the medicine to his face, hands, and feet, Xie Chang'an shouldn't have made such a mistake.

Did Xie Chang'an kiss his cheek while he was asleep?

Thinking this, Ye Jingchen looked at Xie Chang'an.

"I didn't!" Xie Chang'an retorted instinctively.

However, after realizing the question Mr. Li asked, he quickly changed his answer, saying, "It's possible that I accidentally got some on my lips when I was applying the medicine."

Seeing Xie Chang'an's guilty look, Ye Jingchen became even more certain that Xie Chang'an had definitely stolen a kiss on his cheek while he was asleep!

He swore to himself before going to sleep that he wouldn't do anything excessive—

Men really aren't very trustworthy in this regard!

"Sir, will it cause any problems if this medicine comes into contact with your lips?" Ye Jingchen asked with a smile as he entered Mr. Li's room.

Mr. Li looked them over a few times and said, "The effects of the ointment you applied are almost gone. It's not serious; it will disappear naturally in a day or two."

What does it mean when the effect of the ointment has almost worn off?

The two people who knew how Xie Chang'an came into contact with the ointment immediately understood Mr. Li's hidden meaning.

Xie Chang'an: ......

Ye Jingchen: ......

The miracle doctor is terrifyingly powerful!

"Since there's nothing else, let's go have breakfast together!" Ye Jingchen broke the awkward atmosphere, speaking casually.

After finishing breakfast, while packing his luggage in his room, Chenxi suddenly appeared and said to Ye Jingchen right in front of Xie Chang'an, "He stole a kiss from you this morning."

Xie Chang'an had no way to refute it and could only pretend that he hadn't heard anything.

He once again sincerely felt that the bodyguard next to Ye Jingchen was too much of a hindrance!

That night, Ye Jingchen's room also lacked a soft couch for resting. Ye Jingchen did not invite Xie Chang'an, but after Ye Jingchen lay down, Xie Chang'an naturally lay down next to him.

"Young Master Xie, don't do anything sneaky tonight, or you won't be able to explain it to Mr. Li tomorrow!" Ye Jingchen said meaningfully to Xie Chang'an.

"To borrow a famous saying from His Highness the Crown Prince, as long as I'm not embarrassed, then it's others who are embarrassed!" Xie Chang'an retorted expressionlessly.

"When did Young Master Xie become so shameless?" Ye Jingchen asked in surprise.

"I learned it all from His Highness the Crown Prince."

"Not even a fraction as good as His Highness the Crown Prince!"

That being said, Xie Chang'an didn't steal another kiss, not because he was afraid of embarrassment, but because he knew Chenxi was watching him closely.

If he doesn't get rid of Chenxi, it will be difficult for him to accomplish anything secretly!

The closer you get to the northern frontier, the lower the temperature becomes. After leaving the territory of Yongzhou, it even started snowing.

As is customary in previous years, once it snows, war breaks out in the northern frontier, and military supplies must arrive before the northern barbarian cavalry.

In the following days, the supply train began its journey. They set off before dawn and continued their journey after dark to reach the next post station.

With the schedule getting tighter, Ye Jingchen naturally spent more time on horseback each day.
