Chapter 33: Bear with it (Additional update for Watch the Great Wall)
The morning sun was soft and warm, half shining on the ground. The breeze brought this warmth in through the half-open window, but unexpectedly woke up the sleeping people.
When Yan Lingji slowly opened her eyes, she first looked aside and saw that the bedding she had been sleeping on beside the bed had been removed. She immediately turned her head and saw that familiar figure sitting next to the table.
Know how long you have been sitting.
"Are you awake?" he said softly.
She was still a little dazed after just waking up, so she just nodded. She felt a little unnatural. This was the first time that she got up later than Zheng Ze. She didn't know how long he had been watching from the side...
"Then come over and take care of your injuries." Zheng Ze put down his hand on the table and picked up the things placed on it.
Hearing his words, Yan Lingji felt that her consciousness was completely clear in an instant. Only then did she notice that there were numerous wooden basins filled with water and gauze on the table...
For a moment, she was confused and asked, "How do you know?"
Seeing the lingering tiredness on her bright face, Zheng Ze sighed.
With his current keen perception, how could he not notice that the other party quietly ran out in the middle of the night and then came back quietly. He was also injured, but it shouldn't be serious.
He knew everything, but he just didn't say it. With Yan Lingji's interpersonal relationship, who else could she go to besides those few Baiyue remnants?
"Treat your injury first, don't leave any scars."
If it leaves scars, he will be very heartbroken.
Yan Lingji, who was still surprised when he heard what he said, instantly understood that the other party really knew everything. Feeling the faint pain coming from her right shoulder, she walked up to Zheng Ze gracefully without much hesitation.
"I will do it myself."
Although she felt that the secret she had managed to hide was easily discovered by the other party, she still did not want to show any unnaturalness as she took the dominant position in the relationship between the two.
But Zheng Ze went against the norm and took her arm and sat next to her, "The wound is on the back, can you do it by yourself?"
As he spoke, he took the scissors prepared on the table and prepared to cut her clothes.
Yan Lingji didn't expect him to be so direct, cutting off her clothes without saying a word.
She leaned slightly and looked at him with eyes as clear as cold pools, "What are you doing?"
Zheng Ze, who was about to take action, paused for a moment. He looked at her with indifferent eyes, but his body movements and expression were slightly stiff.
Sighing, "If I wanted to do something to you, I would have done it when you were unconscious last time."
Yan Lingji didn't say anything, just looked at that face that was as calm as water, always calm and easy-going. Their eyes collided silently between the two of them, and they looked at each other like this for a few seconds. In the end, she withdrew her gaze first and turned her head back silently.
, continue to turn your back.
"Come on!" He tried his best to appear calm and unconsciously hugged the clothes in front of him with his hands.
She didn't know why, but she actually felt a little unreasonable. He had reminded her before that she also went out when he wasn't paying attention.
Pulling, there was a sound of the cloth being cut open.
Zheng Ze didn't pause at all and cut the clothes off her back. What came into view was her flawless back. However, two punches below her right shoulder, there was a torn wound that was very dazzling.
Fortunately, it was just a minor injury, so the smell of blood he smelled last night was not that strong.
He gently lifted her hair away from her back, slowly calmed down her mind, picked up the cloth soaked in water from the table, and carefully wiped it around the wound.
He could intuitively feel the delicate and smooth skin of the other person's body. He was so close that he could smell the comfortable aroma. However, the beautiful scenery was ruined by this wound, and he was trying his best to keep his heart from being restless.
Yan Lingji, who had her back turned to him, was covering her chest with all her strength to prevent it from falling. She didn't even notice it, and her tight body revealed her mood at the moment.
If Zheng Ze was still the unknown soldier from the beginning, then he could just treat him as a lecherous piece of trash and burn him on fire.
But now that I am getting to know him better, it still feels unnatural to show my skin in front of him.
She always felt that the atmosphere at this time was weird. She thought for a while and found a topic, "Did you know that I went out last night?"
Zheng Ze was concentrating on fighting against his inner demons and replied, "Yeah."
"Aren't you going to ask me what I'm going to do?" she asked.
"No question, I'm just curious about who caused the injury on your body. Look at this shape..." After all, his attention was diverted a little. Looking at the wound, based on the current situation, who has the motive and ability?
?
"I probably know who it is." He said, his tone was not good, his tone was gentle, "If you have a chance in the future, catch him and let you take revenge."
Feathers can be used as weapons, and there are only two in Xinzheng. Bai Feng does not have this strength at this time, so everything is self-evident.
Yan Lingji smiled softly, and the originally tense and weird atmosphere instantly disintegrated. He only thought that Zheng Ze was comforting him, "Don't talk nonsense, you should protect yourself first. He is not an eight-year-old child."
"But, do you really know who that person is?" Yan Lingji was really curious, and she could hardly suppress her curiosity.
"Mo Crow, Ji Wuye's right-hand subordinate, one of the killers of the Night Hundred Birds Group. If there is a young man in white next to him, it is normal for you to lose." He did not hide it and told Mo Crow's story.
identity.
A trace of thought flashed across his pupils, is he Ji Wuye's person?
He reacted immediately, but unfortunately his back was to Zheng Ze and he couldn't see his expression, "You know so many secrets!"
Zheng Ze's tone contained a hint of helplessness for her disobedience, "But I still can't stop you from running out in the middle of the night and coming back injured."
Hearing these somewhat complaining words, Yan Lingji felt a little weird. Why did her tone sound so like she had sneaked out at night, only to be caught by her husband when she came back?
But before she could continue to think wildly, Zheng Ze stopped wiping the wound and picked up the topical medicine he had obtained from Qijuetang early in the morning.
"It may hurt a little, please bear with it."
"Um."
"Then I'm here?"
"good."
With a muffled groan, Yan Lingji's delicate body trembled slightly, she gritted her teeth and endured the pain caused by Zheng Ze's movements. After a while, her originally chaotic breath slowly returned to calm.
Gently smearing the medicinal mud evenly on the wound, his fingertips inevitably pressed on the skin on her back. He could feel that even though she had always been charming, her body at this moment was extremely unnatural.
Use gauze to wrap around the wound, but if you want to fix it, you have to go in front of her. After a moment of hesitation, he stretched his hand from her armpit to the front, and caught it with the other hand, going back and forth several times.
It was inevitable that his fingers would touch soft and delicate skin, which made Zheng Ze feel a little unstable.
In front of me, there is something even worse than half-dressed, but Yan Lingji!
He felt that as a normal man, it would be difficult to refuse such a temptation.
