Chapter 1285 - 1284: I Thought You Wouldn’t Come Back Tonight

Chapter 1285: Chapter 1284: I Thought You Wouldn’t Come Back Tonight

Yuxing was called in by Fen Ling again, just as she had returned to Prince Yexuan’s temporary residence.

It was already past midnight.

"You damned creature, where have you been?" Fen Ling, who had been waiting for more than an hour, could no longer contain her anger.

"And you even dare to wear this thing!"

This time, as she tore off Yuxing’s mask, her sharp nails scratched across Yuxing’s face, leaving behind a bright red trail of blood.

Yuxing felt a burning pain on her face.

Fen Ling was somewhat taken aback; apparently, even she had not expected to hurt someone like this.

An internal injury is nothing serious, but a facial wound—should Prince Yexuan see it upon his return...

No sooner had this thought flashed through her mind than a respectful voice of a guard came from outside: "Prince!"

He’s back!

Fen Ling’s heart tightened, she swiftly glanced at Yuxing’s face, and in a lowered voice said angrily: "Now get out! Want to complain to the Prince? Mind that I reveal your secret!"

Yuxing lowered her head, her face devoid of expression, and withdrew.

Just as she was leaving, she ran straight into the returning Feng Yexuan.

"Prince!" Yuxing immediately bowed her head to greet him.

Feng Yexuan’s gaze darkened slightly: "What happened to your face?"

Although a man’s face is not of much importance, it is rare for his people to sustain such facial injuries.

Moreover, Yuxing was originally the one among the Four Killers with the best skin, fair and clear. Seeing the wound on her face still bleeding, it was somewhat ghastly.

Before Yuxing could reply, Fen Ling stepped out quickly: "Yexuan, you’re finally back?"

She glanced at Yuxing, her voice almost dripping with tenderness: "I’m sorry, I don’t have any medicine for facial wounds here. How about I take you to see the Doctor?"

"There’s no need, I’ll apply the medicine myself," Yuxing said.

Yuxing inclined her body slightly, then said to Feng Yexuan: "It’s just a careless bump, Prince. I will take my leave now!"

Feng Yexuan nodded slightly.

Yuxing promptly lowered her head and left.

Once she had gone far, Fen Ling exhaled in relief and looked at Feng Yexuan: "Yexuan, where have you been so late? Why are you all wet?"

Although his clothes had dried in the wind on the way back, it was obvious that they had been soaked earlier.

"I went to check on the Moat embankment."

Feng Yexuan noticed her scant clothing and spoke with a heavier tone: "The night is cold and damp. You’re still injured, so what are you doing out here?"

Fen Ling’s heart warmed, and she quickly said: "I was worried about you. After waiting for you all night, you don’t know how anxious I was. Hearing your voice, of course I rushed out without care to see you."

"I’m fine. Just went out for a walk," he said.

Feng Yexuan, looking towards the maid at the end of the corridor, commanded: "Someone, take the lady back to rest."

"Yexuan." Fen Ling was unwilling; he had just returned, and now he wanted to send her back again?

After waiting a whole night, how could it end like this?

"Yexuan, I want to serve you in your bath and help you change."

"No need..."

"Yexuan, I waited for you the whole night. Don’t you know how distraught I was?"

Fen Ling looked up at him, her eyes faintly welling up with tears.

"I thought... I thought you went over to her place and wouldn’t come back tonight. I... was upset for a long time, but I was helpless."

By "that place," Feng Yexuan naturally understood she meant Chu Qianli.

"I don’t have that kind of relationship with her. Why would I go there?"

However, looking at Fen Ling’s current state, she did seem rather pitiable.

In the end, he softened: "Come in then."
