Chapter 12 Is He Seducing?
"Ji Yi, Ji Er, what are you still standing there for? Hurry up and drag him away." Xiao Chifeng became more excited after hearing him chattering, and immediately ordered people to drag him away.
Chu Yunlan was frightened by Xiao Chifeng. Seeing that he really wanted the guards to drag him away, he immediately took out a visiting card from his pocket and threw it in front of Shen Shuwei, saying bitterly, "This is the invitation for Xinrou's family recognition banquet. Xinrou has a gentle and kind heart. She has always felt guilty towards you, so she invited you to attend her family recognition banquet."
"This is Xinrou's kindness. Chen Shuwei, please don't be ungrateful. If you hurt Xinrou's heart, I will not forgive you."
After saying this harsh words, Chu Yunlan walked away in disgrace.
"What a junky thing, who wants it?" Xiao Chifeng cursed and was about to kick the visiting card away.
Shen Shuwei bent down before him to pick it up and handed it to Shen Zhang, "Second brother, do you want to go?"
She always knew that Shen Zhang was not at ease with Chu Xinrou, and was even worried that she would not live well in the Chu family.
Shen Zhang looked at the post with complicated eyes, raised his eyes to look at Shen Shuwei, and said with difficulty, "The Chu family treats you badly, I won't go."
Chen Shu smiled and handed him the post, "Don't worry about me, second brother. Go if you want to."
She must be given a chance to let Shen Zhang see Xinrou's true face and give up completely.
After the incident with Chu Yunlan, Xiao Chifeng's good mood was disturbed, and he led his people back home soon.
"It's very hot in summer, so I specially made a bowl of ice yogurt. Would you like to try it, young lady?" Zhao Yun stood beside Shen Shuwei, holding a bowl of milky white yogurt with white steam coming out of it.
Chen Shuwei was sitting on the swing thinking about the family reunion banquet. Suddenly she looked up and saw two red marks on his white jade wrist.
Shen Shuwei felt an inexplicable pity in her heart, as if a precious white porcelain bottle had cracked in her hand.
She held his wrist loosely with a handkerchief, took out a small jar of ointment from her sleeve, and gently applied it on his wrist with some movements.
Zhao Yun narrowed his eyes and looked at the pile of hair, the corners of his lips curled up quietly.
Someone actually dared to apply medicine to him and was so gentle. He almost didn't want to kill her.
The ointment was pungent. It was originally used by Shen Shuwei on Shen Zhang, and she didn't want to use it on Zhao Yun. She looked up at him and said, "Why don't you use some medicine when you're injured? Don't you feel any pain?"
Zhao Yun blinked, her eyelashes as long as crow's wings trembling slightly, and her voice was soft, "Perhaps I put so much effort into making this bowl of yogurt that I didn't even notice I was injured."
"After saying so much, I'm afraid the ice cream is about to melt."
As he spoke, he scooped a spoonful of cheese and fed it to Shen Shuwei's lips, smiling gently and harmlessly, "I'll feed the girl."
Shen Shuwei was startled by his initiative and stood up to take the bowl. "No need, I can do it myself."
I didn't want to get up too quickly and knocked over the bowl of yogurt. The milky white yogurt fell to the ground and the porcelain bowl was broken into pieces.
Looking at the bowl of spilled cheese, Zhao Yun's eyes flashed darkly, but his face showed a look of self-blame. He squatted down and picked up the broken pieces with his hands. "It's my fault. I didn't hold it steady. Is the girl frightened?"
He looked at Shen Shuwei worriedly.
Chen Shuwei looked at the cut on his right index finger caused by the debris, and hurriedly pulled him up and wrapped the wound tightly with a handkerchief.
"The porcelain pieces are sharp, how can you pick them up with your hands?"
Zhao Yun readily admitted his mistake, "It's my fault. I'm sorry for making you worry."
Shen Shuwei looked at him helplessly and asked the maid to get medicine for his injuries. "I don't mean to blame you. You don't have to apologize."
Zhao Yun sat obediently on the swing, watching Chen Shuwei bandage his wound carefully. The powder sprinkled on the wound caused a stinging pain.
He narrowed his eyes and his gaze fell on Shen Shuwei's slender white neck.
What expression would she make when he pinched her thin neck? Would she cry? Or would she curse him like his biological mother, calling him a beast worse than pigs and dogs?
Zhao Yun was fascinated by the scene until Shen Shuwei called his name, "Jing Yin, stretch out your hand."
She called out a name that Zhao Yun had made up casually.
Jing was given the title of prince, and Yin was given from his courtesy name.
Hearing Shen Shuwei calling his name, Zhao Yun laughed softly a few times, feeling an inexplicable sense of pleasure.
He obediently spread out his hands, allowing Shen Shuwei to hold his hands and carefully wrap them with a bandage.
"Okay, remember not to let the wound come into contact with water. Here's the medicine for you, remember to apply it twice a day." Chen Shuwei looked at his bandaged wound with satisfaction.
Zhao Yun moved his fingers uncomfortably, and the pain in the wound on his index finger was relieved a lot because of the effect of the powder.
He obediently took the medicine back to his room, squinted his eyes and untied the bandage, watching the wound on his fingertip burst again because of his violent movement, and the gurgling blood flowed down the cold jade-like knuckles and dripped onto the ground.
Zhao Yun raised the corner of his lips and looked at his subordinate kneeling on the floor with a sickly look of greed. "Have you found out who attacked me?"
"Guards Chengfeng are still following him. I think we'll find out his whereabouts in the next few days." The subordinate replied tremblingly.
Zhao Yun raised his eyelids and spoke softly yet chillingly, "Oh? How many more days?"
The subordinate banged his head hard on the floor, drawing blood. "I am incompetent. Please forgive me, Your Highness."
Zhao Yun glanced at him and said, "Leave the Liuhexiang on you."
The subordinates did not dare to ask him what he wanted the incense for, so they took out a small jar from their bosom and placed it on the table beside them.
Zhao Yun picked up the jar through the handkerchief, looking quite satisfied. "Tell Chengfeng that I want to see the head of the real culprit within three days. If he can't bring it, let him come to see me with his own head."
The subordinate left in fear and trepidation, and disappeared from the room after a moment.
If it weren't for the dark bloodstains on the floor, it would look like no one had ever been here.
Zhao Yun looked at the blood dripping from his fingertips, sighed, and turned to walk towards Shen Shuwei's room.
It's bleeding, so I need the lady to help me apply medicine.
Chen Shuwei looked at Zhao Yun suspiciously. Zhao Yun had returned with his wounds much more serious. "Where have you been? Why are your injuries so serious?"
Zhao Yun sat obediently in front of Shen Shuwei, with an embarrassed smile on her fair face, "The cheese I just gave you broke, so I wanted to go to the kitchen to make a new bowl."
It turned out that the wound was caused by making cheese for herself. Chen Shuwei pursed her lips helplessly, lowered her head to wipe the blood off his hand, and gently applied medicine.
"There's a cook in the house, so you don't have to worry about it. Besides, you're weak, so you should take good care of yourself."
Zhao Yun looked at the bandaged hand, and suddenly raised her face and moved closer. Seeing the queen in Shen Shuwei's eyes, she raised the corners of her lips, and her voice was soft, as if soaked in honey, "Miss, can you treat everyone like this?"
Chen Shuwei tilted her head back. In addition to the bitter smell of medicine, the air was also tinged with an indescribable sweetness, which came from Jing Yin, and it drifted into her nose.
Shen Shuwei's thoughts were a little scattered. For a moment, she wondered if Jing Yin had eaten candy and why he looked so sweet. Then, she wondered if he was too close to her, which was weird. Was he trying to seduce her?
There was a loud bang, and Chen Zhang stood at the door with his face as black as the bottom of a pot. He gritted his teeth and said, "Get out."
Zhao Yun was not surprised by his appearance, but her face showed a bit of panic and uneasiness. She reached out and grasped the hem of Shen Shuwei's clothes, raised her head and looked at her, hesitant to speak, "Miss, I..."
