Ghostly Masked Prince Xiao: Pampering and Spoiling the Little Adorable Consort

(3) People Coming From Chu Family With Unclear Intentions

When Daddy Chu placed the 'inserted in backwards scallion' on the bed, he immediately ran out. Saying he was going to find a fishing net for the 'inserted in backwards scallion', in a while, he would be able to help him catch fish.

Chu Qing-Yan found it funny and let him go. It would be best as long as Daddy didn't go out to provoke other people.

Soon after, she went to light a fire to prepare some hot water to wash that man's face. Only, it was just after the spring rain, so the firewood that they picked up was somewhat damp. She tried starting it for quite a while before it caught fire. Chu Qing-Yan did not have time to attend to her face full of black ash. She carried the hot water and entered the room.

She put down the hot water and turned around to look at the male on the straw bed. This person had long arms and legs, although he wasn't the tall and sturdy type, he was healthy and lean. He would definitely be considered Mr. Perfect in build among her female friends. However, Chu Qing-Yan had just crossed over to this world, she had many things to worry about. Therefore, she hadn't had time to discover how attractive this guy's figure was, to the point of making a person's nose bleed.

She only felt that such a large person, being stuffed on her family's little bed, seemed to really wronged him.

Chu Qing-Yan didn't have time to attend to other matters, she twisted the cloth to get rid of excess water and wiped the man's dark reddish purple face, as if trying to clean off the color on his face. However, no matter how she wiped at it, there was no indication that the color on his face was fading. Chu Qing-Yan couldn't help but frown, could it be that he was born this way?

It's a pity she didn't have a person to consult with right now, Chu Qing-Yan vexedly slapped her own forehead "Seems like I picked up a troublesome thing." Then she said to herself, "The person is alive but just can't move, seems like a person in the vegetative state."

Although her tone was vexed, she still carefully wiped clean his face and hands. And, just at this moment, a sound came from outside the door. Chu Qing-Yan's eyes lit up, Mother had returned! As a result, she carried the water basin and went out.

Once Chu Qing-Yan left, that pair of tightly closed eyes slowly opened. In an instant, a faint light flashed through his eyes, exposing a glimmer of light like those at dawn.

He wanted to lift a hand but discovered that his entire body lacked the strength. In his mind, thinking that the effect of the drug still hadn't worn off, he couldn't help but frown. Soon after, his eyes moved to seize up his current situation. In front of him was only a yellow mud wall that was falling apart, as well as a roof stacked with sogon grass that weren't tightly sealed. Occasionally, the naughty spring wind would drill in to circle around the room before leaving.

This was really a humble room.

Just now, on the mountain, he had heard everything very clearly from this pair of father and daughter's endless dialog. If his body wasn't poisoned with Fiery Underworld Incense and he couldn't move within twenty-four hours, how could he allow people to get near his body.

Fortunately. he was picked up by this pair of father and daughter, and not his enemies. Otherwise, based on his current condition, very likely, it would have been bleak.

And, at this moment, the conversation between mother and daughter also drifted into the room.

"Mom, why is it that you came home so early today?" Chu Qing-Yan accepted the rice Mother had bought, pulled Mother Chu to a chair and helped her sit down. Then, she extended her hands to help massage her mom's shoulder.

Mother Chu softly smiled, "Today a guest came to Li Manor, therefore, the supervisor allowed us to return earlier. That's right, just now, I heard your dad at the doorway, say he picked up a bunch of scallions (1). What's this all about?"
