Chapter 231 Anger
Hu Wei and others consciously followed the men in black towards the residential area.
Xiao Jin brought Su Ying and the others to the palace.
"How do you arrange those people?" Su Ying walked along and found that those people in black were neatly arranged in the city.
"Let them serve as guards in the city for now."
Su Ying nodded. These people all had martial arts skills, so letting them serve as guards was the best arrangement.
"Welcome the Queen back to the palace."
As soon as Su Ying walked into the palace, everyone knelt down before her.
Su Yingmei's heart skipped a beat. She felt uncomfortable with the word "empress". "Don't call me empress. I don't like it."
Xiao Jin didn't expect her to refuse, "Don't want to?"
"It's acceptable to ask the city lord."
Xiao Jin turned his eyes to the person kneeling on the ground, "Did you hear that?"
"Yes, City Lord."
Xiao Jin brought Su Ying to the bedroom, which was where Wei Ji slept before. There were two side halls on both sides of the bedroom where Mother Zhao and others could live.
The kitchen is behind the palace, and there are a few rooms next to it, where He Shouyi and his friends are temporarily arranged to stay.
Bai Shuang and the others could live in the empty house on the lower floor, but Tian Mu and his wife and Cheng Ming and his mother and son were unwilling to live in the palace. They felt that this place should be where Su Ying and the others lived, and it would be more appropriate for them to go to the residential area with Hu Wei.
"What do you think?" Su Ying looked at Xiao Jin.
Xiao Jin nodded, "Okay."
Su Yingen nodded and did not force them to stay. She asked them to choose a house in the residential area and complete the registration.
The things in the palace were extremely luxurious. Su Ying lay on the big bed and felt it was extremely soft. However, she still had the bedding removed and replaced with her own things.
"We've been traveling all day, and we're all tired. We can talk about it tomorrow."
Su Yingen nodded. If she wasn’t hungry, she would have wanted to sleep.
"Uncle He and the others have already gone to prepare the meal. Let's eat first and then go to sleep."
Su Ying responded vaguely. The previous battle had taken a great toll on her. She had actually been holding on these past few days. Now that she was a little relaxed, the breath she had been holding would be let go.
Su Ying fell asleep in a daze.
Xiao Jin looked at her sleeping appearance and did not wake her up. Instead, he carefully carried her to the bed. Unexpectedly, when he touched her skin, his brows furrowed deeply.
He reached out and touched her forehead, which was burning hot.
This woman, doesn’t she even know she’s sick?
Su Ying is in good health and would not get sick for no reason. Her sudden fever may be due to the fact that the wounds on her body were not treated in time.
Thinking of this, Xiao Jin untied her dress and found a long scar on her lower back. She untied the cloth and saw that the wound was red and swollen, and some thick fluid was flowing out.
It turned out that the wound was not treated properly.
Xiao Jin felt helpless and distressed. She always didn't care about her own body.
After he carefully covered her with a quilt, he got up and rummaged through the medicine box. Su Ying would have kept some commonly used medicines in the medicine box.
After Xiao Jin found her, he went back to treat her wounds and fed her medicine.
Su Ying felt a burning pain in her lower back, which made her whole body feel hot. She was so uncomfortable that she kicked off the quilt again and again.
When her body was burning, she felt someone wiping her limbs and neck with a warm towel, which greatly relieved the heat in her body.
She didn't know how long it had been before she started shivering again. She felt cold, and the coldness surrounded her from the inside out. She shivered and curled up, trying to find a source of warmth, but everything around her was cold.
Suddenly a heat wave came from behind her, and she subconsciously moved closer to the other person.
The other person's temperature quickly spread throughout her body, and Su Ying's trembling gradually disappeared.
Su Ying slowly opened her eyes and found herself being held in someone's arms.
She moved, and Xiao Jin reached out to touch her forehead without even opening his eyes. When he found that the temperature on her forehead had subsided, he opened his eyes.
Su Ying pushed him away and tried to sit up, but the wound on her lower back was pulled, causing her to hiss in pain.
"Don't move, the wound has just healed."
Su Ying frowned, "Am I sick?"
There was a hint of fatigue in Xiao Jin's eyes, but more of it was anger. "Su Ying, can't you take your body seriously? Do you not care about your own life or death? Or do you feel that you have nothing to worry about and nothing to fear?"
Xiao Jin's series of questions made Su Ying stunned. When she left Tiankui City and returned to Tiger Camp, she clearly entered the space to clean the wound, but there were many things to do afterwards, so she forgot about changing the bandages and taking medicine. She also didn't expect that the cut on her lower back would become inflamed.
Seeing Xiao Jin suppressing his anger, Su Ying suddenly took back the words that were about to come out of her mouth, "I'll be more careful next time."
"You said the same thing last time!"
Su Ying licked her lips. Maybe because she had been unconscious for some time, her lips were a little chapped. She raised her eyes and looked at him with a rare look of weakness. "I feel a little hungry. Does that mean I have recovered well? Can I eat meat? I want to eat meat."
Seeing her like this, the anger in Xiao Jin's heart dissipated inexplicably, like a punch on cotton, making him lose his temper.
But he still said with a straight face: "You still want to eat meat? Dream on."
Su Ying's eyebrows jumped, "I'm already injured like this, and you're still reluctant to give me a piece of meat?"
Xiao Jin glanced at her, then got out of bed and walked out.
"Men are indeed ruthless creatures."
Just when Su Ying was about to go find something to eat, the palace door was pushed open and Xiao Jin walked in with a food box. Seeing that Su Ying had already stood up, he frowned and asked, "Why did you get up?"
As soon as Su Ying saw the food box, she had no thoughts at all.
"Waiting for you."
Xiao Jin put the food box on the table and watched her impatiently take out all the food inside.
Su Ying looked at the three dishes and one soup in front of her, and indeed there was no meat.
She took a bun and put it in her mouth. Well, although the bun had vegetarian filling, it was stuffed with butter. It turned out that Uncle He and the others were indeed humane.
Su Ying devoured more than a dozen buns, a big bowl of soup and two dishes in a blink of an eye. After finishing, she patted her stomach with a look of satisfaction.
"What time is it now? Is it time for dinner?"
Xiao Jin: “…”
This time, Xiao Jin did not let Su Ying leave the palace until her wound had scabbed over and no longer needed medicine.
Breathing the cold air outside, Su Ying felt it was fresh.
"City Lord, are you okay?" Green Protector saw Su Ying coming out and walked up to her and asked with concern. Although his words were caring, his expressionless face really distracted people from the show.
