Ch. 263 The Horrible He Sanlang

Astonished, Chu Lian froze for a moment. She hadn't expected those to be He Sanlang's first words after seeing her again.

The way he was currently acting was exactly like a dog that had been ignored by his owner. She didn't know how to react.

The corners of her lips twitched. Chu Lian headed over to the bedside with Wenqing trailing after her.

She sat down on the stool next to the bed and said, "Since Laiyue has gone out, I'll be the one to help change your bandages later. It's already the twenty-seventh, so you should take a bath at the same time. I'll put on your ointments after you're done."

He Changdi turned back around and looked at Chu Lian silently.

Chu Lian remained her usual calm and easygoing self. "He Changdi, if you don't answer me, then I'll take it that you've agreed."

After she was done, Chu Lian turned to Wenqing and told her to get the maidservants to prepare the items required for a bath.

Just as Chu Lian stood up to look for bandages and gauze, He Changdi directed his frosty gaze at the servants in the room. The maidservants trembled and retreated quietly.

A trace of satisfaction showed on He Changdi's face.

As Chu Lian set the bandages and gauze to one side, together with the ointments that she had ordered to be brought to her, she felt that the room was strangely quiet. It was only when she turned and looked around that she realised she and He Changdi had been left alone.

She put the medicine box down and shot a confused look at He Sanlang. "Where's everyone?"

He Changdi was calm as he replied, "I've sent them away."

Ah? Chu Lian didn't understand. What had he sent them all away for?

"Is there something important you have to tell me?" Chu Lian sat down next to He Sanlang and drew close to him, expecting some secret.

Although there was still some distance between them, He Changdi could already smell the fragrance on Chu Lian's body. He couldn't tell what perfume she used, but he just thought that it was very nice.

There was a faint smile in He Changdi's eyes, though he wasn't aware of it.

He shifted his body even closer to Chu Lian. He Changdi's breath glided across Chu Lian's soft cheeks.

"It's not anything major, but I want you to help check my wounds. They were hurting a little when I woke up this morning." He Sanlang's tone was very cool and impersonal. Aside from his heated breathing, he had managed to hide his 'evil' intentions very well.

If this had been a normal situation, Chu Lian would have definitely been able to detect the white lie. However, when it came to matters concerning He Changdi's body, Chu Lian instantly tensed up and forgot her usual calm.

With an astonished and reproachful look, Chu Lian began to admonish him. "Did it only start hurting this morning? How about during the past two days? He Changdi, are you stupid? Why didn't you mention your wounds hurting before? Why would you just bear with the pain without saying anything!"

Once she had finished her scolding, Chu Lian quickly reached out for the blankets covering He Changdi.

Since He Changdi's injuries had been healing well, Chu Lian had not asked the old physician to come every day, and in fact, the old physician had gone home for New Year's the day before yesterday. Fortunately, the old physician had left behind some instructions. He Changdi's life was no longer in any sort of danger with the few days' worth of recuperation, and it was only a matter of time before he was fully healed.As long as his bandages were changed daily and he continued drinking his medicine, he would be able to walk in another month.
