Chapter 87: Chapter 69 Xiao Jinxing’s Vulnerable Side_3

Ye Qichi frowned.

Clearly in a somewhat painful grip of Xiao Jinxing.

Xiao Wu didn’t dare to use too much force and couldn’t help saying, "Perhaps the Prince wants the Princess by his side. Would the Princess consider..."

Ye Qichi glared fiercely at Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu, pretending not to see, quickly knelt down, "I will immediately apply cold and hot compresses to the Prince."

Having said that, he hastily took a cold towel and applied it to Xiao Jinxing’s forehead.

Ye Qichi’s eyes tightened as she turned to look at Lu You.

"This servant will apply heat to the Prince’s hands and feet."

"Isn’t there a rule against men and women touching?" Ye Qichi said sarcastically.

"It’s different, this is taking care of the Prince’s body, it’s this servant’s duty," Lu You hastily said.

But driving a wedge between the Prince and the Princess is an act of great disrespect.

Ye Qichi was thoroughly speechless with Xiao Wu and Lu You.

She struggled again.

The more she resisted, the tighter Xiao Jinxing held on.

In the end, Ye Qichi gave up.

As she gave up, she leaned against Xiao Jinxing’s bed, feeling a sense of forlorn despair.

The darkness of night deepened.

"Princess, the Prince is sweating," Xiao Wu suddenly said.

"Mhm," Ye Qichi replied.

Indicating that Xiao Jinxing’s fever was about to break.

"Do we need to continue with the compresses?" Xiao Wu asked.

"No need for now, wait until his fever breaks, then just clean his body simply," she instructed.

"Understood," Xiao Wu quickly replied respectfully.

Lu You also stopped her actions.

The two stood respectfully by the bed, waiting for Xiao Jinxing’s fever to subside.

Xiao Jinxing was now all sweaty.

Ye Qichi pondered whether she would have to clean his wound again after his sweat had dried.

Just as she thought this,

"...Mother," Xiao Jinxing seemed to start speaking again.

Ye Qichi pretended not to hear.

"Don’t leave me, don’t leave me," Xiao Jinxing murmured.

But this time,

Ye Qichi actually heard clearly what he was saying.

Xiao Wu and Lu You heard it too.

Both looked at the Prince’s condition with surprise.

"...Mother, mother..." Xiao Jinxing kept calling out.

His voice was a bit rushed and tinged with fear.

At that moment, Ye Qichi felt Xiao Jinxing’s hold on her hand grow tighter.

She pursed her lips.

Xiao Wu and Lu You, realizing the situation, consciously turned and stepped back.

The vulnerability of their master was not to be seen by the servants.

So they left properly.

Ye Qichi wanted to leave as well.

She always felt that she would be awkward here.

After all, she had never thought to comfort him.

"Mother," Xiao Jinxing called out again.

This time, more clearly articulated than before.

After speaking, he suddenly opened his eyes.

Ye Qichi, watching Xiao Jinxing’s look, coolly asked, "You’re awake?"

"Mother," Xiao Jinxing called out to Ye Qichi.

"..." He couldn’t really have become addled from the fever, right?!

She hurriedly checked his forehead with her other hand.

The fever should be subsiding by now.

Worrying her range of touch might be inaccurate, she quickly touched her forehead to Xiao Jinxing’s.

Their distance was close.

Ye Qichi’s forehead lingered on Xiao Jinxing’s for a while, feeling his temperature.

Completely unaware of the direct gaze Xiao Jinxing had on her at that moment.

When she finished testing the temperature and was sure it was decreasing, preparing to leave, she met Xiao Jinxing’s eyes.

Soft, warm, even desiring eyes gazing at her.

Damn.

Did he really mistake her for his mother?!

Was she that old?!

It seemed Xiao Jinxing’s own mother was only in her twenties when she died.

But anyway, she didn’t have that aura of maternal love, right?!

"Won’t you leave Xing’er, okay?" Xiao Jinxing asked her, his tone even sounded a bit coquettish.

Ye Qichi felt goosebumps all over.

How disgusting.

Xiao Jinxing was better suited with a poker face.

"Mother," getting no response from Ye Qichi, Xiao Jinxing called out to her again.

Ye Qichi really had to hold back again and again before finally saying, "Fine, mother won’t leave, you go to sleep now."

"Mother, don’t lie to Xing’er."

Who else would I lie to if not you.

You better hurry up and sleep!

"Won’t lie," Ye Qichi smiled.

It was just suppressing the urge to smash Xiao Jinxing’s face, which was so unlike its usual self, forcing herself to smile.

Xiao Jinxing, hearing a clear response,

Finally settled down and closed his eyes again.

The moment he closed his eyes, his lips curled into a smile.

Ye Qichi shifted her gaze, thinking how creepy he was!

She too gave up struggling then.
