Chapter 83 Assassination 4
There was a soft and regular knock on the door: "Your Highness, the medicine is ready, the girl can take it." Hearing this, Sheng Yixuan slowly stood up and walked towards the door. He opened the door and took a bowl of steaming porridge and a bowl of carefully prepared medicine handed to him by the servant. Then he closed the door gently and turned back into the room.
Sheng Yixuan carried two bowls of hot soup and walked steadily to the side of Yin Zijin's bed. He carefully placed the bowl on the small table beside the bed, then sat quietly beside Yin Zijin.
Sheng Yixuan whispered to Yin Zijin: "Drink the porridge first, then the medicine." His voice was low and magnetic, as if it carried a reassuring power. Yin Zijin raised her head slightly and looked at the strange yet familiar man in front of her, with a complex emotion surging in her heart. He nodded slightly to show that he understood what he meant.
Yin Zijin was about to take it, but Sheng Yixuan quickly stopped her: "I'll feed you, you're injured, so lie down to avoid bleeding!"
Yin Zijin asked with a hint of confusion on his pale face: "It's just a one-time encounter, Your Highness doesn't have to be so concerned about Zijin. Your Highness said that the only thing you can give Zijin is your true heart, but in this world, true heart is the most difficult to measure..."
Listening to Yin Zijin's words, Sheng Yixuan turned around, took out a blue monk's robe from the cabinet beside him, and placed it next to Yin Zijin: "Put on the monk's robe first! These are all we have for now. Your wound is inflamed, so it's better to wear something looser."
Sheng Yixuan helped Yin Zijin put on her monk's robes slowly. His cold and unpredictable black eyes showed a hint of tenderness. He suddenly came up to Yin Zijin and said, "Then it depends on your actual actions."
The handsome face and cold eyes that suddenly approached him, as well as the inexplicable entanglement between his breaths, instantly made Yin Zijin's heart slow down for a moment, as if his heart had stopped. Yin Zijin subconsciously nodded and said, "Okay, let's wait and see."
Sheng Yixuan nodded, straightened up and said: "It's getting late, you should rest for a while. I have to leave soon, and there are still many things waiting for me to deal with. The maid should be here tonight."
Yin Zijin nodded and said, "Take care of yourself."
Sheng Yixuan walked out confidently, and Yin Zijin looked at Sheng Yixuan's tall and broad back thoughtfully. After Sheng Yixuan left, the whole house became quiet. The sunlight shone into the house through the window, and the cicadas' screams made people feel upset.
The courtyard of Fu'an Temple was Yin Zijin's boudoir in the Yin Mansion. The whole room was very stuffy and hot. Yin Zijin's fair and tender little hands tightly grasped the quilt.
After a quarter of an hour, Yin Zijin thought to herself: "This body can never go back to the way it was before..."
After Sheng Yixuan left, Chen Lu ignored his injuries and walked towards Yin Zijin's door. Because of the difference between men and women, Chen Lu stayed outside the door.
Not long after, Chen Lu heard a noise in the room. He was afraid that something had happened to Yin Zijin, so he shouted anxiously: "Girl, are you okay?"
Yin Zijin bit her lower lip quickly, and after a moment's pause, she said tremblingly, "It's okay, Chenlu. You don't have to worry. It's just that the wound hurts a little."
Hearing no more noise outside the house, Yin Zijin took the gauze left over from bandaging the wound and put it in his mouth.
After a few minutes, the exhausted Yin Zijin fell into a deep sleep. After sleeping for a while, it was already dusk. The sun had already set, leaving only the vague silhouette of the mountain.
Yin Zijin was awakened by a gentle voice. She slowly opened her eyes.
