Chapter 384.4: Battle, Acting Innocent

For the long expressionless on the outside former shadow guard, and current manor doctor, his hand couldn’t help but shake. As expected, one can’t ‘offend’ the wangfei. Even when wangye makes a mistake, that was also needing to be ‘punished’. Slightly pausing, “Wangfei, there is already medicine applied on wangye’s body, that kind of medicine and this medicine…………..”

“What?” Jing Wan ‘smilingly’ asked back.

Gong Jiu subconsciously shut his mouth. The smiling wangfei whose smile didn’t reach her eyes made one somewhat fearful.

“Just use it.” Li Hong Yuan didn’t say anything much. As long as it can let his wife quell her anger, hurting a bit more wasn’t that big of a deal.

Gong Jiu was still a bit hesitant. Master didn’t know that medicine’s power. One has to know, He Shi Hai, in their eyes, was absolutely considered a man of steel. Moreover, He Shi Hai had grown up at the border town. The times he got beaten around definitely weren’t few. But, their master, prior to last year’s White Dragon Temple incident, afraid, for the most part, never scratched his skin before. Although at the time, when he saw his master’s ability to endure, he was quite surprised, he was still unable to have him compared with someone like He Shi Hai, that kind of genuinely thick-fleshed and rough-skinned person. He Shi Hai’s situation at the time, they completely took in. Although the effect was good, but because it was too painful, if one is unable to withstand, one might die from the pain.

Master didn’t care, but Gong Jiu still wanted to explain to Jing Wan again. However, he got stopped by Li Hong Yuan’s gaze.

For Gong Jiu to have been able to acquire such good skills at a young age, his mind naturally was quite bright. How could he still not know his master’s meaning. If not for having a deadpan face, this while, he perhaps would’ve already cracked. For the sake of obtaining some benefits from wangfei, he can be said to be completely unscrupulous in his methods. And now, for the sake of begging for forgiveness, he naturally was also full of schemes. One has to know, even if wangfei was angry, as time passes, she certainly will forgive, yet he insist on using this kind of method.

Jing Wan saw Gong Jiu’s reaction, and naturally also sensed the abnormality. That medicine perhaps was even more terrifying than she’d imagined. Just as she was hesitating, thinking about letting it go, the proactive Gong Jiu already had the medicine taken out from the medicine box and decisively sprinkled on one of the relatively small cuts.

And in the very brief moment afterwards, an extremely painful cry erupted from Li Hong Yuan’s mouth. However, it got subconsciously swallowed back by him, his teeth clenched deathly tight, while his entire body spasmed. The veins on his forehead, neck, and back of his hand violently bulged out. That appearance really looked quite frightening.

This reaction further frightened Jing Wan. How was this medicine just scarier than her anticipation? It was practically countless times scarier.

Where did Jing Wan still have the mind to be angry? Letting him remember this lesson, so that next time, he won’t dare to mess around, and whatnot, it also got tossed beyond the clouds. Jing Wan hugged onto Li Hong Yuan, “Gong Jiu, quickly have the medicine removed, what are you standing around for?” Jing Wan’s eyes reddened from worry.

Actually, Gong Jiu already had this in mind, so the amount used was very little, and this while, it was just swiftly scraping off the medicine powder. However, it was on the wound after all, so certainly will have remnants, “Wangfei, the remnants of the medicine’s effect most likely can only dissipate gradually after half an hour.”

“Wash it off, immediately wash it off, use the pure alcohol.”

Qi Yuan’s wine brewing technique was still pretty good. There were several kinds of pure cold wine with relatively high alcohol concentration.

Gong Jiu didn’t question Jing Wan’s word, and Eunuch Mu moved even quicker, using the quickest speed to have the best strong alcohol brought over.

Reasonably speaking, using wine on the wound, it will exceptionally sting, but that bit of sting from the wine now was completely nothing.

What was still on the surface of the wound was able to be washed off, but what has penetrated into the blood, they can only wait until the medicine’s effect wears off.

Seeing Li Hong Yuan in pain like this, Jing Wan’s tears directly fell, “Sorry, sorry, it was my fault, all my fault. I shouldn’t have, because of being angry with you for not cherishing yourself, just used this kind of thing. Ah Yuan, Ah Yuan……………..”

Jing Wan was being very careful, afraid that she would touch another wound.

Li Hong Yuan’s consciousness was actually quite clear, just he had no way of opening his mouth. He worried that once he opens his mouth, he will just scream out. As for his other wounds, this while, he was actually already completely numb to them. Jing Wan wanted to let go, but he instead tightly held her. Just, extreme pain usually would cause a person’s strength to increase by several times. Hearing Jing Wan’s stuffy groan, he subconsciously had her pushed away.

Regardless of it was pain or strange itches, all can use other ways to divert one’s attention, just don’t know how effective that was now.

Jing Wan had Gong Jiu and them waved out, and afterwards, went forward, avoiding his wounds, as she did her best to arouse his lust. Truthfully speaking, since marrying, it’s not like Jing Wan has never taken the initiative before, but being this ‘passionate’ like now was definitely a first.

Li Hong Yuan slightly blanked. In that moment, his pain perhaps really did lighten, but in reality, he was still unable to respond to her. In fact, when she kissed him on the lips, he didn’t dare to open his mouth. He was afraid that he would bite her.

Perhaps because it really was too painful, his desire really wasn’t that easily aroused. However, Jing Wan didn’t have any signs of stopping.

Unknown as to how much time passed, but by the time Li Hong Yuan started kissing Jing Wan in his arms, she finally realized in hindsight that the medicine’s effect probably already worn off. However, she didn’t push him away. That expression practically was just like a porcelain doll that would break at a touch.

Li Hong Yuan helplessly laughed, “It’s fine now.” His voice was a bit a low. In this short amount of time, it nevertheless drained him of his strength.

“Laugh? You’re still able to laugh?” Jing Wan can be said to be both worried and angry.

“Since Wan Wan isn’t angry anymore, this husband naturally is able to laugh.”

“Who told you I’m not angry anymore?” Seeing that he was practically just like using the ‘pity-inducing scheme’, Jing Wan very much wanted to whip him.

“Still angry? Then, how about use a bit more?”

“Again? You want to die from the pain, or want me to die from heartache?” How come this bastard was just this infuriating?

“Alright, alright, alright, let’s not use anymore. Don’t have the word death hung by the mouth, I don’t like it.”

“Then, you injuring yourself all over, I will just like? Ah Yuan, the injuries are on your body, but the pain is in my heart. In the future, don’t play like this, alright? Regardless of whether you want to train someone, or momentarily want to test your skills, I can all disregard, but you at least need to take care of yourself. Else, even if it’s certain big plans, I perhaps will all stop you from doing.”

“Alright, there won’t be a next time, I promise.” Seeing Jing Wan like this, how could Li Hong Yuan not heartache, so that feeling of wanting to fight with He Shi Hai previously all weakened.

Jing Wan was still worried about Li Hong Yuan’s injuries, so ignoring her current appearance, she had Gong Jiu called in.

Gong Jiu’s eyes didn’t glance around, just concentrating on treating Li Hong Yuan’s wounds. As for certain unspeakable marks, he chose to ignore.

After it was all treated, Jing Wan finally opened her mouth again, “Wangye, just now, were you being deliberate? Don’t tell me you don’t know that medicine’s effect?”

“Wan Wan is wronging me, I really didn’t know that the medicine’s effect would be this strong.”

Jing Wan had her gaze swept towards Gong Jiu, “Gong Jiu, you’re also a lump of elm wood. Your master doesn’t know, but you certainly must know. He let you use, you just use? Don’t you know to consider carefully?”

Gong Jiu originally just wanted to be a background plank, just waiting for his master’s order to let him go out, yet in the end, got blamed by wangfei, getting shot while lying down. He faintly swept his master a glance. Don’t think that he didn’t know his master just now was throwing him the pot, but as a shadow guard, even if already becoming a past tense, they still needed to shoulder the pot for their master with honor, in every kind of sense. “This subordinate knows wrong.”

Jing Wan also knew she was just taking out her anger on the innocent. With Gong Jiu just acknowledging this easily, it made one increasingly stifled inside.
