Chapter 223: Bathing, the picture is too beautiful to imagine (Part 1)

After the medical system’s punishment was over, Lin Chujiu directly fell on the bed without any effort.

This time, the punishment was more painful and longer than the previous one. When the punishment was over, Lin Chujiu’s body was full of sweat, she looked like a person that was fished out from the water.

Lin Chujiu was not a person who can’t bear the pain. But, the medical system’s punishment was simply inhumane. Lin Chujiu couldn’t help but cry in pain. When the guardsmen outside heard her cries. They didn’t dare to come forward, they went to report to Xiao Tianyao instead.

“Wangye, Wangfei is sick again.” The guard didn’t know Lin Chujiu’s situation, so he could only use the word ‘sick’.

Xiao Tianyao no longer needed his wheelchair now. So, when he heard the guard’s report, he rushed to Lin Chujiu’s courtyard with his foot. The guard just turned around to chase after him, but Xiao Tianyao could no longer be seen… …

The place where Lin Chujiu lived was far from the front yard. So, although Xiao Tianyao went in a hurry, he couldn’t take back the time that the guard has wasted. When he arrived, Lin Chujiu could already get up.

*Bang*

Xiao Tianyao broke open the door, just when Lin Chujiu got up. Lin Chujiu looked up and saw Xiao Tianyao’s cold eyes. Xiao Tianyao saw Lin Chujiu’s face was pale and her bitten lips were bleeding. She hasn’t even had time to wipe them out.

The two of them stared at each other in silence. No one spoke. Their senses only came back, when a guard decisively came forward and took out the broken door.

After a few more seconds, Xiao Tianyao break the silence and asked: “What happened?” Lin Chujiu looked so weak and seemed seriously ill.

Lin Chujiu lowered her head and avoided Xiao Tianyao’s eyes. Then, replied with an indifferent tone: “Didn’t I said it was an old disease.” Lin Chujiu still used the same statement. She didn’t care whether Xiao Tianyao will believe it or not.

“Your illness relapse?” Xiao Tianyao apparently didn’t believe it. Before, he didn’t ask because Cui Sanye and Princess Fu An were there. He didn’t want to expose Lin Chujiu.

“Can’t you see?” Lin Chujiu knew Xiao Tianyao didn’t believe her, but what about it?

Xiao Tianyao doesn’t have any evidence that can prove she was lying.

“Do you need a doctor?” The facts were in front of his eyes, so it must be true. Xiao Tianyao doesn’t believe in Lin Chujiu’s words, but just like what Lin Chujiu was thinking. He has no evidence, so he could only believe it for a while.

“No, it’s fine, I just need to take a rest.” Lin Chujjiu said, but she’s curling up her body like salted pickles: “Wangye, I want to take a bath and changed clothes. I’ll go first.”

Lin Chujiu’s words were meant for Xiao Tianyao to go outside. But the result, Xiao Tianyao only moved to the side, and give way to Lin Chujiu.

Lin Chujiu looked at Xiao Tianyao, but didn’t say anything. She walked silently past by him and took her clothes to the bathroom.

Before, she had already asked for hot water, so she only needs to go straight to the bathtub. As for Xiao Tianyao? Lin Chujiu doesn’t think a busy person like him, would wait for someone like her. 

The bathroom was only separated by a paper wall from the bedroom. Although nothing could be seen, the sound of the running water, flowing down from Lin Chujiu’s body can pass through without any problem.

Xiao Tianyao was a martial artist. His hearing was several times more sensitive than ordinary people. In a quiet room like this, the sound of flowing water was louder several times.

Just by listening to it, Xiao Tianyao could guess that the water was flowing from Lin Chujiu’s shoulders up to the bathtub. And when he closed his eyes, he can imagine the actual picture.

This is simply a torture!

  1. Cant she say – in exchange for medical wisdom, i got this curse wherein if there is someone who need medical help, and i dont help, i will feel like a thousand needles is piercing her-?
    This is more believable in terms of ancient china and ML’s perspective and will make him not doubt her actions in helping d enemy (like when she cured d assasins – first few chapters)
