Chapter 539: Chapter 538: I’m Afraid Many Girls Will Try to Snatch You Away

Ye Qingying was groggy as he began to drift off to sleep, feeling as though his entire body was engulfed in flames.

His body was burning up.

In fact, with so many injuries all over his body, still bleeding from wounds both big and small, even someone as tough as iron would not feel at ease.

But over the years, he had grown accustomed to it.

Yet, as he slept, slowly he began to feel waves of coolness.

Occasionally, when he opened his eyes, there was always a young girl by his side, her gentle little hands softly caressing his body.

The places she touched felt comfortable.

Later, the heat in his body subsided, and those wounds seemed to not hurt as much.

Finally, his abdomen, tense for half a month, seemed to relax considerably.

He slept, a very peaceful sleep.

It felt like he had slept for a long time.

And it also felt like it was just a moment.

When he awoke again, it was light out, and sitting not far from the table was a young girl.

The same girl who appeared in his dreams over and over.

She was not pretty, her face long since having lost its luster.

But her figure was exceptionally beautiful.

Especially her presence, dignified yet with a touch of gentleness, and within that gentleness was a hint of aloof coolness.

A seemingly cold-hearted little thing, but in front of him, she became as mischievous as a child.

She was wise and intelligent, and could guess some things, even knowing that her amnesia was somewhat related to him.

But she neither inquired nor listened, choosing simply to trust him.

Looking at Xiaoyao’s back, Ye Qingying began to doubt for the first time whether what he had done was truly wrong.

She should have had a perfect life...

"Master, are you awake?" Hearing the noise of him getting up, Xiaoyao rubbed her somewhat sore eyes and immediately went over to help him sit up.

The guilt in Ye Qingying’s eyes disappeared in an instant.

He was still accustomed to keeping his cool, but in front of her, indifference was useless; she would pester him relentlessly, leaving him no choice but to give in.

"How long have I slept?" Ye Qingying asked.

He then realized that his mask had already been removed by her.

Touching his face with his hand, still not used to it, he intentionally kept a stern face, "Don’t play with your master’s mask, bring it back."

"Master, I applied some medicine to your face, don’t touch it."

Xiaoyao glanced at a corner not far away, where the mask lay quietly.

"No need," Ye Qingying’s eyes darkened.

He was accustomed to his ugly appearance; these scars on his face didn’t bother him in the least and did not need healing.

"If I say it’s needed, it’s needed. Master, if you don’t want me to apply medicine, then I’ll just have to play around by administering some to you."

"You!" Ye Qingying was almost driven to fury, constantly threatened with the prospect of being drugged. Did she truly think he wouldn’t dare to deal with her?

"Your martial arts are no match for mine..."

"What a pity you can’t bear to hurt me, so you’ll definitely end up being drugged by me," Xiaoyao said with a giggly smile, even winking at him.

It was enough to drive one mad.

Ye Qingying decided not to get angry.

Getting angry all the time would make one age quickly.

That’s what the girl had said.

"Bring back the mask, I’m not comfortable like this," he said, softening his voice.

"Alright." Xiaoxiao picked up the mask.

With the mask on, Ye Qingying felt more at ease.

But Xiaoxiao kept staring at his mask for a long time.

"What? Still frightened by my ugliness?" He didn’t mind.

The girl wasn’t that faint-hearted.

Xiaoyao shook her head, then stared at his mask again, stating seriously, "I was thinking, even after the wounds on your face heal, you should still wear the mask."

"Why?" Ye Qingying raised an eyebrow, unable to follow her train of thought.

Wasn’t she the one who found it inconvenient that he always wore the mask?

Xiaoyao shrugged her shoulders, giving him a look, "With such good looks, if the wounds on your face heal, a lot of girls will surely like you. When that time comes, many, many girls will come to snatch my master away."
