Chapter 541: A man's heart is as deep as the sea
"Put me down. I can walk by myself."
Fu Zhaoning said to Xiao Lanyuan, "I carried her all the way back here, and you didn't put her down when I got home?"
Xiao Lanyuan could only say to Xiaoqin, "Lead the way."
Xiaoqin hurriedly led the way.
"Xiao Lanyuan, don't blame me if your hand cramps later." Fu Zhaoning said in a low voice.
"Let go. I don't blame you. You're not that weak."
"Prince Jun, our young lady will stay here. I will go make tea."
After saying this, Xiaoqin quickly retreated.
She was still afraid of Xiao Lanyuan, but she felt that she could not show her fear in front of him, lest she would be thrown out by him again.
Even if this is Shen Xuan's territory.
Seeing that Xiao Qin seemed to be running away, Fu Zhaoning glared at Xiao Lanyuan.
Xiao Lanyuan put her on the chair.
"Did you sprain your ankle? Let me take a look."
"No need, I already told you that I was a little weak because I ran too fast before, but I'm fine now - Xiao Lanyuan!"
Fu Zhaoning looked at Xiao Lanyuan in shock.
He actually squatted down in front of her, grabbed her feet, asked her to put her legs on his knees, and used his other hand to help her take off her shoes.
"Don't move. Let me see."
Xiao Lanyuan took off her shoes, grabbed her feet and gently turned her ankles. "Does it hurt?"
Fu Zhaoning looked at him blankly.
What the hell is this man doing?
"Does it hurt?" Seeing that she didn't answer, Xiao Lanyuan asked again.
The voice was still very gentle, and for a moment it didn't feel like him anymore.
"It doesn't hurt."
"What about this side?" Xiao Lanyuan pressed her calf.
"It doesn't hurt, just a little sore."
Fu Zhaoning quickly put her foot down, but Xiao Lanyuan grabbed her other foot.
"Look this way."
"I--"
"Don't move."
Xiao Qin came in with some tea and was a little horrified when she saw this scene.
"My Lord, my Lady, the tea is ready. I will go get some hot water."
"Go ahead."
Before Fu Zhaoning answered, Xiao Lanyuan responded with a gentle tone.
"Yes!" Xiao Qin felt terrified again and ran out quickly.
"It's really okay. I'm not sprained. I just feel sore." Fu Zhaoning quickly withdrew his foot and put on his shoes himself.
Xiao Lanyuan stood up and said, "Have a cup of tea."
"Go wash your hands."
"good."
After he walked out, Fu Zhaoning quickly took a big sip of the cup to calm himself.
What does Xiao Lanyuan want to do?
Sometimes he gets angry and hides in the house and refuses to meet her, and sometimes he squats down to take off her shoes and massage her feet without any disgust?
A man's heart is as unfathomable as a needle in the sea!
If he keeps changing like this, she won't be able to serve him!
Xiao Lanyuan went out to wash his hands, and Qingyi came over and said, "My Lord, Lan Rong has brought someone to bring the luggage over. You have to wash up later."
"knew."
"Your Highness—" Qing Yi called him again, seeming to be hesitant to speak.
"If you have something to say, just say it."
"Then let me ask directly. Are you sleeping in the princess's room tonight? Will the princess let you come out?" Qing Yi asked expectantly.
Xiao Lanyuan paused.
He asked this as if he was now a dependent and was asking Fu Zhaoning to take him in.
Don't think he didn't hear it, Qing Yi was asking him if he would be kicked out by Fu Zhaoning. If he was really kicked out, then his face in the Shen family would be completely gone.
After all, this is Shen Xuan's place.
If this prince's son-in-law is not recognized by the time, where will he put his face?
The problem was that Xiao Lanyuan himself was not sure at this moment whether Fu Zhaoning would kick him out at night.
"Your Highness, Baihu and the others have arranged a room for me. Otherwise, I and Lan Rong will leave a bed empty. If the princess really doesn't want to keep you at night, you can quietly come to my guest room." Qing Yi said cautiously.
The weather is cold. If the prince is really kicked out by the princess at night, it would be difficult to ask the Shen family to arrange another room for him. There would be no quilts or charcoal stove there, so the prince would not be able to live there.
And if we bother them again, the news will spread.
"Why are you talking so much? Go and help prepare hot water for me." Xiao Lanyuan gritted his teeth secretly.
"yes."
Seeing that he didn't want to say anything, Qing had no choice but to retreat.
The prince himself said no. He didn't want to share a bed with Lan Rong, two grown men.
Xiao Lanyuan stood in the yard for a while. Xiao Qin and the servants came over with hot water. When they saw Xiao Lanyuan, they all paused.
"Carry it in, to prevent the water from getting cold." Xiao Lanyuan glanced at them and spoke.
"Yes, yes."
Xiaoqin quickly took the servants to fetch water.
Fu Zhaoning had been squeezed all day and had just saved a lot of people, so he didn't think much and went straight in to take a shower.
When she came out of the bath, she found Xiao Lanyuan sitting at the eight-immortal table, holding a teacup in his hand, looking down at the cup without drinking.
She took a look and said, "Your mask is covering you tightly. If you don't take it off or put it up again, how can you drink tea?"
"I just had a cup." Xiao Lanyuan immediately put down the teacup.
"Oh, so you drank it while I was away and couldn't see you? Xiao Lanyuan, I haven't seen your face before?"
"No, I'm not wearing this mask to protect you."
"Is there anyone else here now?"
Xiao Lanyuan didn't know how to answer for a moment.
Xiaoqin will be here soon.
He had already scared Xiao Qin last time, and because of that shock, he felt that he could not face himself in the bronze mirror.
If Xiao Qin was scared by him again the second time, he didn't know what he would think.
"Okay, wear it if you want."
Seeing him like this, Fu Zhaoning was too lazy to say anything more. "I see that your mask is specially made. It doesn't fit the face and won't touch the face, right?"
"Yes, I won't."
"Don't you feel uncomfortable wearing it like this?"
Since it cannot touch the skin on the face, the mask would be more difficult to make. It looks rather complicated and cumbersome, and it must be quite heavy.
How could he be comfortable wearing this mask all day?
You have to open it before eating and drinking.
She felt uncomfortable wearing that half-thin mask today.
"It's okay, I'm used to it."
Xiao Lanyuan was a little worried that she would force him to take off the mask immediately.
Now he really didn't dare to face Fu Zhaoning like this. After letting her see the looks of Situ Bai and Qing Yunxiao, she would have to see his devil-like face.
Fu Zhaoning was a little angry when he heard this.
Are you used to it? Is this why you want to wear it all the time in front of her?
"Xiao Lanyuan, don't you think this is ridiculous? I'm your doctor. It's not like I haven't seen your face. I've even removed the rotten flesh on your face and seen your scar. What's the point of you hiding from me?"
Xiao Lanyuan remained silent.
"Okay, wear it if you want." Fu Zhaoning didn't want to pay attention to him, so he sat in front of the bronze mirror and started wiping his hair.
