The Marriage of an Esteemed Supreme Healer, a Noble Ruler

2502 Side Story 6: I Was Wrong

Xiao Ba bit her lip and Gazed at Yan Qing with tears in her beautiful eyes. “It hurts.”

This glance nailed Yan Qing to the ground. It was as if all the blood in his body had stopped flowing at this moment, but Xiao Ba didn’t seem to notice.

There were only three girls in the Thirteen Yue Guard, and all of them were very doted on. However, she was still wilful and couldn’t take any hardship. Now that she was pressed down by Yan Qing, it was so painful that tears came out.

Yan Qing’s hand was on her waist.

For a moment, he didn’t know whether to continue or stop. More importantly, his heart was in a mess.

He lowered his eyes and frowned. He forced himself to put away those chaotic thoughts. “This medicine has to be massaged to have the best effect.”

Xiao Ba felt wronged. “Be gentle then.”

Yan Qing took a deep breath and felt his palm slide down her soft skin as if it was on fire.

The scorching temperature spread from his palm to his entire body.

“It’s useless if I’m gentle.”

Since I’ve already helped apply the medicine, I naturally have to try my best. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be a waste of time? At times, Yan Qing was still very stubborn.

“Just bear with it,” he said seriously.

“But I don’t want to—ah!” Xiao Ba was about to protest when Yan Qing turned around and continued.

This sudden action hurt Xiao Ba terribly. She rolled over and was about to get up. “I don’t want you to help me apply it anymore!”

Initially, I just wanted to tease him. Who knew that this person would be so ruthless? Could it be that he is taking the opportunity to take revenge?

But as soon as Xiao Ba stood up, Yan Qing pressed her back down. “It’ll be done in a while.”

Xiao Ba was no match for Yan Qing at all. Now that she was injured and lying on the bed, she was simply at his mercy.

She grabbed the pillow and threw it at Yan Qing. “I already said I don’t want it!”

Yan Qing tilted his head slightly and dodged.

Her injuries really aren’t light. Shu Jing was extremely ruthless. Fortunately, she hit Xiao Ba’s waist this time. If it were anywhere else, her internal organs might have suffered a considerable impact. At that time, the situation would be even more troublesome.

At the thought of this, Yan Qing’s expression turned even colder, and he pursed his thin lips tightly.

Xiao Ba was angry and anxious as she raised her hand to hit him. Unfortunately, Yan Qing was sitting beside her—she really couldn’t hit him.

In addition, her shoulder was injured to begin with. With this sudden force, her face turned pale from the pain.

However, she still didn’t retract her hand. No matter what, she had to teach him a lesson.

Yan Qing raised his eyes slightly, leaned over slightly, and held her hand. A warning tone in his voice, he whispered, “If you move again, I won’t be able to finish applying this medicine.”

The injury on her waist is already serious enough, but she still raised her hand without care. Does she think that the injury on her shoulder isn’t enough?

When Xiao Ba heard this, disbelief flashed across her eyes. Is Yan Qing… scolding me? Apart from Big Brother, when has anyone else ever spoken to me in such a tone? In fact, even Big Brother wouldn’t do this!

The resentment and grievances she had accumulated for a long time instantly exploded. “You did it on purpose!”

Yan Qing didn’t speak. With his strength, it was really easy for him to suppress Xiao Ba.

Xiao Ba could only lie on the bed obediently with his hand on her waist.

“Yan Qing, you’re doing this on purpose! You’ve lied to me time and time again. I asked you why the Left Divine General had the same name as you, but you still pretended not to know anything! I’ve asked you so many questions. Even if you can’t say it, just don’t say it. Why did you have to talk to me so much!?”

Yan Qing’s eyes narrowed.

When Xiao Ba thought of what had happened previously, she became even angrier. How could she not mind?

“You’re deliberately teasing me, right?! You listened to me tell you how the Left Divine General was. You don’t show it on the surface, but you must be laughing at me behind my back!”

Yan Qing frowned even more. What is going on?

“I didn’t—”

But the more Xiao Ba spoke, the more aggrieved she became. She buried her face in the blanket and said in a muffled voice, “You were the one who lied to me and hid the truth from me. You were the one who said you wanted to apologize, but I’m the one in pain now!”

She mainly felt that it was too embarrassing—the rest didn’t matter.

Most importantly, she had asked Yan Qing two questions back at the reeds.

Firstly, who was prettier, her or Shu Jing?

Secondly, when the Left Divine General saw her, would he dote on her a little and not bear to touch her?

Was there anything more embarrassing than this?

Xiao Ba knew that she was beautiful and was never stingy with showing off her beauty. However, if she had known that Yan Qing was the Left Divine General, she would never have asked such a question at that time!

“You liar—Hiss!”

At this moment, Yan Qing’s hand had already moved to the place where her bruises were the most serious. He exerted more strength in his palm.

Xiao Ba gasped in pain and couldn’t say anything else.

She finally gave up. After all, she didn’t have much strength left.

And this man… really couldn’t be persuaded!

Fortunately, after this, Yan Qing’s voice finally came. “I’m done.”

Xiao Ba didn’t move.

Yan Qing was a little worried. “Xiao Ba? You can get up now. I have to apply it on your shoulders too.”

Hearing this, Xiao Ba immediately felt uncomfortable.

She turned her face away. Her lips were pale, and her forehead was covered in fine sweat. “I… I don’t have any strength…”

Seeing that she was indeed a little weak, Yan Qing’s brows furrowed slightly.

Xiao Ba prayed silently in her heart. Go away, go away! I have really miscalculated and actually provoked him. This man doesn’t understand what it means to have tender, protective feelings for the fairer sex! After all this, I’m really crippled.

Yan Qing, who was behind her, didn’t speak for a while.

Just as Xiao Ba was secretly happy and thought he was about to leave, she suddenly felt a warm body approaching.

She was stunned. Before she could react, she was wrapped in a pair of strong arms.

She turned around in shock and realized that she was actually… carried by Yan Qing just like that?

He sat her down in front of him and held her wrist with one hand, as if he planned to continue helping her apply the medicine.

She was nervous and quickly pounced over to hug his arm. She almost leaned into his arms and said pitifully, “Brother Yan Qing, I was wrong!”
