After Yan Muning heard the big beauty’s words, his mind went blank for a moment.
He didn’t-didn’t want to chase him away ah.
Now this is embarrassing.
The little prince suddenly felt that all the fighting today was in vain. The image he had just erected seemed to be shaking and about to fall.
What can he do? Didn’t he just want to perform well and bring his princess home smoothly?
Why is it so difficult…
The more the little prince thought about it, the sadder he became. He felt a sense of grievance for no reason. Originally, he just wanted to pretend to be naughty, but at this moment, he actually felt pain all over his body.
.
Yun Jiangli looked at the youth, who was still squatting there motionless after listening to what he said. The pair of round eyes that was looking at him brightened for a moment, then gradually dimmed, and then became aggrieved.
The hem of his clothes was still held in the youth’s hand, and his own hand was still holding that slender arm.
A rare feeling of helplessness flashed through his mind, and he even felt guilty that he had wronged someone.
“What’s wrong?”
Yun Jiangli followed his instinct, raised his other hand, and touched Yan Muning’s head a little awkwardly.
The touch was surprisingly good. He rubbed it gently twice and said softly, “I really don’t want to chase you away. Get up first and let me take a look at the injury.”
Then he held his shoulders with both hands, exerted a little force, and helped the youth stand up from the ground.
Yan Muning stood up obediently, with his head hung pitifully, unwilling to say a word, his eyes fixed on the ground.
“Change your clothes first.”
Yun Jiangli pointed at his clothes that were dirty from the fight.
The two seemed to have swapped their usual roles. The taciturn one was finding topics to talk about, while the one who was always chattering became silent.
“Oh.”
Although the little prince responded, his mouth pouted even higher.
Humph, didn’t you say you’d check the wound first? Why are you complaining about my dirty clothes…
Looking at the youth who agreed but stood there without moving, Yun Jiangli continued to ask tentatively, “Or… should I change it for you?”
After saying that, seeing that the youth had no objection, he went straight to work and began to untie the belt around his waist.
His clothes were indeed too ill-fitting for the youth. The robe, which was only ankle-length, dragged on the ground, and the belt around his waist had to be turned half a circle further.
Yun Jiangli held the slender waist with his hands, his eyes darkening.
The little prince was still muttering to himself, and before he knew it, most of his clothes had already been taken off.
By the time he reacted, the collar of his shirt was already open.
“I, I…”
Yan Muning blushed and hurriedly grabbed his clothes, trying to take a step back. However, he accidentally stepped on the long hem of his clothes and fell backwards with an unstable center of balance.
Yun Jiangli quickly reached out and grabbed him, thus avoiding the embarrassing situation of the little prince again.
Yan Muning followed his instinct and threw himself into the big beauty’s arms. His face turned even redder. “It’s all-all because of this clothes…”
While stammering for excuses, he struggled back from the big beauty’s arms with red ears, trying to put a small distance between them.
“Yes, it’s because your clothes are too long. I almost tripped over this torn robe during the fight just now; otherwise, I would have knocked those two little thieves down long ago…”
The flustered little prince has already started talking nonsense.
The impact of indirectly hugging his beloved was really too great. His heart was beating wildly, as if it was going to jump out of his mouth.
Yun Jiangli: “……”
He doesn’t know how to put it, but he always feels that this youth is not quite normal tonight.
Yan Muning is the type who chatters more the more nervous he is. He has already forgotten the embarrassment of pretending to be so shameless just now, and now he doesn’t have the momentum of the hug just now.
At this moment, his nostrils seemed to still be lingering with the scent of herbs warmed by the body temperature that he had just smelled when he was in the big beauty’s arms.
His cheek touched that firm chest through the thin clothes, and he accidentally rubbed his collarbone…
A certain little prince felt that his current state was as if he had drunk two jars of fine wine in one breath, and his mind was completely confused.
At some point just now, he actually wanted to hug him a little longer, and even better, a kiss…
Ah! He is His Royal Highness Prince An!
How can he be so frivolous?
The person Yan Muning had chosen was naturally his future princess consort. But for things like kissing and hugging, he has to kidnap him—no, he has to marry him into the palace properly!
The prince, who was fighting a fierce battle in his heart, did not notice that the big beauty had changed him into a clean undergarment and led him to sit on the bed at all.
When he came to his senses, he found himself with his clothes open, leaning against the soft pillow at the head of the bed, letting the big beauty wipe the sweat from his neck and chest with a warm handkerchief.
Yan Muning: “……”
“Next time you try to show off, you will have to bear the pain yourself.” Yun Jiangli frowned.
The little prince was just cursing himself in his heart and was a little confused when he heard the last half of the big beauty’s words.
Then he felt a pain in the wound and couldn’t help shivering.
Only then did he realize that the fight had really opened the wound again, and blood was already seeping out of the bandage.
That’s fine, this way he doesn’t seem too shameless just now.
Feeling that his precarious image seemed to have been saved, Yan Muning secretly smiled in his heart.
The big beauty seemed a little unhappy, his eyebrows were furrowed and his expression was dull, and there was no gentleness in his hands as he treated the wound.
The little prince, who was already extremely afraid of pain, bit his lower lip tightly to maintain his brave image and refused to make a sound. His eyes were red, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Yun Jiangli inadvertently raised his eyes and saw tears in the youth’s round eyes and teeth marks on his lower lip…
Finally, he sighed softly and slowed down his movements.
“Xiao Qi, bear with it. A healing wound is difficult to heal and will be more painful if it splits again.” He spoke to comfort him.
This is true. It is naturally very painful to tear the tender flesh that has just been injured again, not to mention the need to clean it, apply medicine and then bandage it.
The youth said nothing, his eyes flashing with a stubbornness that he couldn’t understand.
“Don’t try to be so stubborn anymore.”
Yun Jiangli couldn’t bear it, so he repeated it once more, complaining with a pain in his heart that he himself didn’t even notice.
Yan Muning lowered his eyes, his long eyelashes trembling slightly, and puffed his face and muttered softly, “I’m not trying to show off, I just want to protect you…”
His heart seemed to be hit by the youth’s words hard, feeling both sour and soft.
Yun Jiangli has always been rational and cold, but this little youth always breaks his bottom line again and again, forcing him to face emotions that he himself cannot understand.
Suddenly he felt a little irritated. Yun Jiangli hated this vague feeling. For the first time, he impatiently wanted to clear the fog and see what was hidden in his heart.
.
The room suddenly became quiet.
Yun Jiangli treated the youth’s wounds without saying a word and carefully rubbed medicated oil on the new bruises from today’s fight.
Yan Muning was quick to notice that the big beauty’s aura had changed.
He rolled his eyes around, unable to guess what had offended the person, but he felt it must be because of him, so he tried to appease the person.
Prince An, who had always been coaxed by others since he was a child, had no experience in coaxing others.
He tried to dig through his memory. How did his Emperor Father comfort his Empress Mother? How did his brothers comfort his sister-in-law when she got angry?
“That…”
The little prince spoke awkwardly, his fingertips trembling, but he still bravely grasped the big beauty’s collar and pulled him towards him. “Don’t be angry, it’s all my fault, I…”
What’s wrong with me? The little prince was stunned for a moment.
“I, I won’t be stubborn. I will obey you from now on. I will listen to whatever you say…”
After he stammered out his words to comfort the other party, the little prince’s face first turned red, and the blush spread all the way to his chest.
Yun Jiangli was still worried about his emotions when he was inexplicably pulled closer by the youth by his clothes. He was so frightened that he only had time to support the bed slightly with his hands to avoid falling directly on the youth.
Then, the youth’s soft voice continued, and the words he spoke became more and more… It makes him confused.
After he finished speaking, he felt so embarrassed that he was almost ripe.
The slight annoyance in Yun Jiangli’s heart disappeared because of the youth’s teasing.
The posture and atmosphere of the two people now, coupled with the youth’s words that made people think too much, is really…
Yun Jiangli suddenly couldn’t help but want to see the shy little cat in front of him, being bullied to the point of his fur standing up1I mean, a cat’s fur stands up when they’re nervous, scared, or become aggressive, it’s like that..
“En… you’ll listen to me in everything?” Yun Jiangli heard a strange smile in his own voice.
Yan Muning buried his head in his chest in shame: “I’ll do whatever you say.”
Yun Jiangli smiled: “Then… what if I chase you away?”
The little prince was shocked: “Didn’t you say… you weren’t going to chase me away?”
The voice became quieter and quieter, and the nasal ending trembled.
Yun Jiangli pretended to be serious. “Didn’t you say you would listen to me?”
The little prince was aggrieved and tried to defend himself: “Well, well, well, my injury hasn’t healed yet…”
You’re kidding. He hasn’t kidnapped the person back yet, how could he leave?
Yun Jiangli continued to tease him: “Then when your injury heals, you will leave?”
The little prince was on the verge of getting angry: “We’ll talk about it later, but right now, the wound hasn’t healed. Look, I’m penniless, I don’t even have a piece of clothing! Didn’t you say you were here to save the dying and the injured…”
“Then I, I was picked up by you! Anyway, I was injured and had no place to live, so you picked me up, and you have to be responsible for me!”
Yan Muning became anxious as he spoke. He threw all thoughts of coaxing him out of his mind and started to act like a spoiled brat.
Yun Jiangli finally got to see the angry little cat. He felt somewhat satisfied, but at the same time he secretly cursed himself for having developed such a bad taste.
He moved closer and lowered his voice to seduce.
“Then I picked you up, cured your injury, and didn’t charge you for the consultation. Are you going to work as my medicine boy to pay off the debt?”
The author has something to say:
All of the little prince’s brothers: When have we ever coaxed your sister-in-law so enthusiastically? (We can’t let you see it anyway.)
A certain sober person: Coax, shouldn’t it be the big beauty who coaxes you? (Shaking legs)
