Chapter 22 - Xiao Nong: Send someone to check on Zhong Yansheng

    The gaze that fell on the neck was like that of a fierce leopard staring at him.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    The feeling of being watched by a ferocious beast crept up his spine again. Zhong Yansheng shuddered silently and his Adam''s apple rolled with difficulty.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">He finally realized how unreliable Xiao Wen was.</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">Fifteen minutes ago, Xiao Wen solemnly assured them that no one in the world knew his cousin better than him. Today, Xiao Nong had something to do and there was no way he would appear in Changliu Vi. If he did, he would chop off his head and let him kick it like a ball.</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    The long eyshes under the veil trembled a few times, and Zhong Yansheng did not dare to raise his eyes again. His sight drifted to the silver-gray hem of the nearby dress that was embroidered with twined flower patterns. His breathing became three times lighter, and he rarely cursed softly in his heart.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    He really, really wanted to kick Xiao Wen''s head like a ball.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    The Artemisia leopard had been following Xiao Nong dejectedly, but when it got close to Zhong Yansheng, its big furry tail started wagging again, and its gray-blue eyes were fixed on him, as if it wanted to pounce on him and lick him a few more times.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Nong nced coldly at his disappointing pet.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    After being swept by him, the big cat curled up its ears, growled softly, andy down unconvinced, staring at Zhong Yansheng with its eyes wide open, as if it was looking at a sweet and lovely snack.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Deep blue eyes, gray-blue eyes, both staring at him.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Being stared at by the man and the beast, Zhong Yansheng''s scalp felt even more numb.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    The posture of talking while lying on the ground was too strange. He barely mustered up some strength to sit up, and tried to control his soft and sticky ent that had been mocked by others, and suppressed his voice to be very hoarse: <strong>"Yes, it''s me. Thank you very much, Your Highness Prince Ding, for saving my life. I am very grateful..."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    His voice and body were trembling slightly, as if he was so frightened that he couldn''t even get up - a very normal reaction. Any normal person would be frightened like this if they were pounced on by a wild beast and licked a few times like a snack.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">He didn''t faint, which means he was very brave.</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    What''s more, His Royal Highness Prince Ding has arrived.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    The group of people brought by Xiao Wen were so frightened when they saw Xiao Nong seeing a ghost that their legs went limp. They huddled together, holding their breath and not daring to make a sound. Their eyes were filled with helpless sympathy as they looked at Zhong Yansheng.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">This young master of the Huai''an Marquis'' Mansion is so unlucky.</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Everyone ran away, except him who was pounced on by the beast. Now His Royal Highness Prince Ding appeared, and all attention was focused on him.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    That''s His Royal Highness Prince Ding, who kills without blinking an eye. He''s like a ferocious beast and will eat people!


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    When in Jinghua Garden, Xiao Nong did have some doubts about Zhong Yansheng.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    However, there were many people around at that time, and it would be somewhat humiliating to forcibly take off Zhong Yansheng''s veil, so he did not take off Zhong Yansheng''s veil. Seeing that Xiao Wen seemed to know Zhong Yansheng, he detained him and asked him a few questions.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    That day, after Xiao Wen exined the meaning of the flowers at the Flower-Fighting Banquet, he became interested when he heard Xiao Nong asking him about Zhong Yansheng''s appearance, and said shamelessly, <em ss="chakra-text css-0">"The most beautiful man in the capital is the young master Zhong."</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Nong sneered immediately.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">The most beautiful man in the capital? Who else can be called the most beautiful man in the capital except Yuan Yuan?</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Then Xiao Wen started to praise Zhong Yansheng wildly, using all thepliments he had to praise Zhong Yansheng.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Nong and Zhan Rong were both silent after hearing this.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    There is no other reason, it''s just that Xiao Wen''s taste is hard to describe.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    It is clear that he grew up in a luxurious environment and has seen countless rare treasures since childhood, but Xiao Wen is particrly fond of some gaudy things that are popr and not worthy of being considered elegant.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Thest time Xiao Wen boasted like this in front of Xiao Nong was about arge-bellied vase with gold-painted and enamel round flowers that he had bought at an official auction. He bought it for tens of thousands of taels of silver, and he happily brought it to Xiao Nong as a birthday gift, like presenting a treasure.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Bright red, bright green, bright purple, clusters of flowers, flying bees and butterflies, everything is so fancy.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Nong had never seen such a noisy bottle in his life. His eyes hurt so much that he locked it in the warehouse and never let it see the light of day again.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    So it is hard to imagine what a person as beautiful as a fairy looks like in Xiao Wen''s eyes.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Wen also thought that the man in the portrait who looked like a mango was handsome and elegant.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Besides, Zhong Yansheng''s nickname is "Yan Yan".


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    It has nothing to do with "Yuan Yuan".


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    But when he saw Taxue tearing open Zhong Yansheng''s veil, revealing the blurry white shoulder and neck lines, a very subtle and strange feeling suddenly shed through Xiao Nong''s heart.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    A veteran of many battles would naturally not ignore this intuition.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    There was no expression on Xiao Nong''s face, and he did not answer Zhong Yansheng''s words. He leaned down and got a little closer to Zhong Yansheng. A horrible, vulgar and choking smell of perfumed powder came over him, exactly the same asst time.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Taxue, who was standing next to him, smelled the scent and shook his head in annoyance. Xiao Nong, who had a keen sense of smell, was also choked by the strong fragrance and frowned.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Seeing this, Zhong Yansheng was delighted.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">A jar of incense powder that costs only a few dors actually has such miraculous effects that it can drive away the evil spirit, that is His Royal Highness Prince Ding!</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Nong frowned at him for a while, but did not withdraw as Zhong Yansheng had expected. Instead, he moved closer.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhong Yansheng''s whole body tensed up, his heart began to pound wildly, and he couldn''t help but hug his knees and quietly shrank back.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">Too, too close.</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    The cold breath like snow seemed to linger at the tip of his nose, enveloping his entire body in an extremely aggressive manner.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Nong''s sight prated the hazy veil and locked onto the direction of Zhong Yansheng''s eyes. His voice was indifferent, and one could not tell whether he was happy or angry: <strong>"It seems that the doctor in the Marquis'' Mansion is not very skilled. The disease on the young master''s face has not healed yet?"</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    As the familiar handsome face came fully into view, the lighter bite mark on the side of his neck was faintly visible among the scattered ck hair.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhong Yansheng''s gaze involuntarily lingered on the bite mark for a moment. The tip of his ear quickly became hot and red. He guiltily moved his gaze away a little, and then met Xiao Nong''s eyes.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Those deep blue eyes were like the darkest night, staring at him without blinking. Their deep and sharp edges were exactly the same as the leopard beside him, which made people shudder with fear.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhong Yansheng had the illusion that he was face to face with Xiao Nong without any cover. For a moment, he was like a bird whose wings were caught. He dared not move. His voice became even lower, and he didn''t know what he was saying: <strong>"Yes, yes."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Wen wiped the sweat off his face for a while, his heartbeat gradually calmed down. Seeing his cousin leaning closer and closer to Zhong Yansheng, the poor young master looked like he was almost scared silly, and his heart of sympathy for him was suddenly moved again.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">He also didn''t know who his cousin had been looking for these days, which had caused a sensation in the entire capital. From the rumors leaked from the Anping Marquis''s Mansion, he only knew that they were looking for someone named "Yuan Yuan".</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">During these days, no less than thirty people were taken to Prince Ding''s Pce for inspection.</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Based on Xiao Wen''s understanding of his cousin''s usual style of doing things, the person who would make such a big fuss must be someone who has offended him deeply.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">It will take at least a year and a half to torture the person before they can be finally killed.</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">But how could the beautiful, well-behaved and gentle Young Master Zhong have that kind of ability?</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">Moreover, from the look on his cousin''s face that day in Jinghua Garden, it was clear that he had no intention of killing the young master.</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">Why is it that once he bumps into him, his eyes are glued to him and can''t be taken off?</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Wen swallowed his saliva, mustered up his courage, trembled and called out, <strong>"Cousin."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Nong still stared at Zhong Yansheng calmly, without even lifting his eyelids, and didn''t bother to pay attention to him. His posture was exactly the same as that of the Artemisia leopard.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Wen finally understood why he felt familiar with the Artemisia leopard just now.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    He has always been afraid of Xiao Nong, so his voice suddenly weakened by eight octaves, and he spoke in a low and rapid voice: <strong>"Cousin, Young Master Zhong and I are very familiar with each other, and he is really not the person you are looking for. Today, today I was wrong. I shouldn''t have brought people into the vi casually, and brought them to watch Taxue. Young Master Zhong was just innocently implicated..."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    He was talking so fast, like he was chanting a sutra. Xiao Nong''s headache was already on the verge of exploding, and now hearing this, it was even more painful. He turned his head and nced at him coldly, with murderous intent: <strong>"Shut up."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Taxue also turned his head, opened his mouth, made a threatening gesture towards Xiao Wen, and roared.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Wen and the group behind him shuddered collectively.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Wen was instantly frightened like a quail. He quickly opened his fan to cover his face and shut up timidly.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">He really tried hard.</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">Young Master Zhong, just wish you good luck.</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    The noisy voice disappeared, and Xiao Nong turned his gaze back to the person in front of him.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    He was wearing a veil, so his face couldn''t be seen clearly. His figure was not as slender as his little bird, and he didn''t smell good either.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    But Xiao Nong trusts his intuition more.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    He stared at Zhong Yansheng and ordered, <strong>"Take off your veil."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    The person in front of him trembled slightly again, as if he was very afraid of him, and lowered his voice even more: <strong>"Your Highness, my facial illness has not yet healed, I am afraid that I will scare you..."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <strong>"Scared?"</strong> Xiao Nong raised his eyebrows slightly, with a bit of unbelievable amusement in his eyes, and said in a casual tone, <strong>"Even if the evil ghosts and evil gods appeared in broad daylight, I would not be scared."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhong Yansheng: <strong>“…”</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">You are quite brave then...?</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <strong>"What kind of appearance does the young master have, and how powerful he is? This makes me even more curious."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Nong''s voice was light, and his tone was unyielding: <strong>"Take off your veil. I don''t want to say this for the fourth time."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Nong had said this twice before in Jinghua Garden.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhong Yansheng choked for a moment, knowing that this former adopted brother of his had a bad temper and could get angry at any time. His patience was probably running out, and if he made another excuse, he would probably take action directly.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Thinking about the temporary disguise he had made before going out, his heart was beating ufortably. He took a deep breath, raised his face, and raised his hand to lift the corner of the veil that had a hole.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    From Xiao Nong''s angle, he could just see half of his face through the hole.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    The small half of the face that was exposed was pale and dull, and the already poorplexion was covered with dense red rashes.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    It ispletely different from the snow-white, bright and eye-catching face in my memory.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    The curve at the corners of Xiao Nong''s lips suddenly disappeared, and he frowned and looked at Zhong Yansheng.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhong Yansheng had no idea how good this skill, he had learned when he was bored, was. Just showing half of his face made his heart jump out of his throat with nervousness. Seeing that Xiao Nong didn''t say anything, he gritted his teeth and lifted the white gauze up again, exposing half of his face and revealing his short, copsed nose.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">The most beautiful man in the capital?</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">Xiao Wen really should go get his eyes checked.</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Nong''s face turned cold and hepletely lost interest. He patted the Artemisia leopard that was still sniffing in the direction of Zhong Yansheng, and turned away without saying a word.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">Got away with it?</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhong Yansheng''s tense shoulders suddenly rxed, and the strength he had just umted was exhausted. He copsed back onto the ground powerlessly. He didn''t dare to raise his sleeve to wipe the sweat off his face, for fear of wiping off what he had worked so hard to draw on his face.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Fortunately, Xiao Nong didn''t let him lift it uppletely. He could draw the face in a messy way, but he couldn''t change the eyes.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    If the veil was pulled up a little more, Xiao Nong would see that familiar pair of eyes, clear and bright, as bright as stars.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Taxue held its tail in its mouth and looked back every few steps, looking back at Zhong Yansheng. He was reluctant to leave. After looking back twice, he saw that Zhong Yansheng did not try to keep him, and his master had no intention of looking back either, so he hung his head dejectedly and followed Xiao Nong out of the yard.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Seeing that Xiao Nong had already reached the gate of the courtyard, Zhong Yansheng breathed a sigh of relief and staggered, trying to stand up from the ground.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Wen hurried over to help him up: <strong>"Young Master Zhong, how are you? Are you hurt?"</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhong Yansheng didn''t like being touched by others. These days, he even got up and dressed himself without letting Yun Cheng help him. When he saw Xiao Wen reaching out his hand, he subconsciously dodged. When he moved his leg, he felt a burning pain in his knee.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    He shrank in pain, then fell back limply. He couldn''t help but hiss in pain, his eyes suddenly turned red. He didn''t dare to look at his legs, and asked with a sob, <strong>"Second Young Master Xiao, my leg hurts so much, is it broken?"</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Nong, who had reached the gate of the courtyard, suddenly paused, turned back, and looked at Zhong Yansheng on the other side with a frown.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    At that moment just now, he felt as if he heard a distant voice.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    The boy sitting under the scorching sun didn''t notice that he turned around at all. He turned his head away, not daring to look at his injured knee. He looked just like a delicate child who was afraid to breathe because of a bruise on his belly.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Nong narrowed his eyes.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Wen was shocked when he heard Zhong Yansheng''s serious words. He thought that the snow had bitten Zhong Yansheng''s leg, but he didn''t see any blood oozing out. He squatted down and observed carefully for a while, and suddenly realized: <strong>"Young Master Zhong, the cloth on your knee is a little torn. Did you get a scratch inside when you fell to the ground just now?"</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhong Yansheng''s nose turned red, and he choked up when he heard the voice: <strong>"Oh..."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">As long as it''s not broken.</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">He felt that he was really unlucky today and should have broken his promise and stayed in.</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">I don''t know how serious the skin breakage is.</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhong Yansheng stretched out his hand and was about to lift the hem to check the extent of the injury on his knee when he noticed a familiar pair of eyes with a captivating light falling on him.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    The sense of presence and oppression are equally strong.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Some fragmented images suddenly shed through Zhong Yansheng''s mind. He paused and quickly retracted his fingers.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    He remembered that night... When Xiao Nong was angry and ‘punished’ him, he seemed to be particrly fond of his calves and ankles.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Most of the time, those strong hands with thin calluses were either pinching his waist or holding his ankles and calves.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    After he came back, the marks gradually faded after five or six days. During those days, he was very careful at home and didn''t even dare to lift his sleeves. When the doctor came, he only allowed the doctor to diagnose his pulse.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">What if, just in case, His Royal Highness recognizes his calf.</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Although he felt that His Royal Highness Prince Ding might not be that perverted...


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    But he seemed like a little pervert because those images kept shing through his mind.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhong Yansheng was conflicted for a while, and then he heard familiar footsteps approaching again.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Gentle and slow, just like the leopard beside him, a predator with a leisurely gait.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhong Yansheng''s heart tightened, and all the messy thoughts disappeared. He was afraid that Xiao Nong woulde back to pull his hat, so he quickly lowered his eyes.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Then he felt something falling.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhong Yansheng was stunned, and before he could react, he was hit by something. He was a beatte to react, and he let out an "ah" btedly, feeling aggrieved.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">His Royal Highness Prince Ding is no longer his adopted brother, so why is he still throwing things at him?</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Wen reacted quickly and caught the thing with both hands in time. He looked down and muttered in shock: <strong>"Brother, is this the medicine that Doctor Lou prescribed? You never gave it to me even when I begged you... Young Master Zhong, thank my brother!"</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">Only after being beaten could he get this medicine.</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhong Yansheng turned his head and saw clearly what had hit him. He was stunned when he saw a familiar round medicine bottle.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    It was the same one that Xiao Nong had given him before.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    At that moment, the first thought in his mind was, His Royal Highness Prince Ding actually has this kind of medicine...


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">Since you have medicine, why don''t you rub the bite mark on the side of your neck?</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">Your Highness Prince Ding, don''t you think it''s very undignified to walk around with a bite mark on your face all day long?</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhong Yansheng''s slow reaction seemed somewhat familiar.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    The little bird that suddenlynded in his yard one day, and suddenly pped its wings and flew away another day, was also a little slow and clumsy. It failed to catch the thing and was hit. It also looked at him with a puzzled and innocent look, ming him, and looked aggrieved and dared not say a word, which made people feel disgusted.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Nong rolled his fingers in his wide sleeves, narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhong Yansheng carefully again.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Seeing him hesitate for a long time, he carefully picked up the medicine bottle, lowered his head, and respectfully thanked him in a low and hoarse voice: <strong>"Thank you, Your Highness Prince Ding, for the medicine."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Nong looked at Zhong Yansheng for a while, then suddenly said, <strong>"Xiao Wen."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Wen was startled, and only then did he realize that his brother might want to settle ounts with him. He gritted his teeth and replied, <strong>"Brother?"</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Nong raised his eyes and nced at the young men who were huddled together and dared not breathe by the courtyard wall. His eyes fell on Zhong Yansheng again, with an unpredictable look: <strong>"Since you brought your friends here to y, why don''t you even have a cup of tea? This is not a good way to entertain guests."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Wen was stunned for a few seconds: <strong>"Ah?"</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    The group of quails behind him all said in unison: <strong>"Huh?"</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">What is His Royal Highness Prince Ding saying?</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">They entered Changliu Vi without permission and even came secretly to visit His Highness''s pet, causing a hugemotion. However, His Highness Prince Ding not only did not lose his temper, but instead said... This was ack of hospitality?</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    The group of people behind turned pale.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">His Royal Highness Prince Ding''s way of entertaining guests is not to cut off their fingers one by one, right?</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Everyone waved their hands frantically: <strong>"Thank you very much, Your Highness Prince Ding. We will leave now. We dare not trouble you to make tea..."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhong Yansheng also looked at the man nearby in confusion. The sun was too strong, and he was wearing thick clothes, so he felt hot. He loved the shade and liked the coolness, so he didn''t even realize that he was unconsciously moving into Xiao Nong''s shadow.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Noticing this small movement, Xiao Nong slowly rubbed the red forehead band tightly wrapped around his wrist through his wide sleeves, and simply ignored what the group of people said, with a calm expression: <strong>"Come here, take the guests to the study to taste tea."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    The group of secret guards following behind looked at each other in confusion, but one of them still walked out and extended his hand with a grim expression to point the way: <strong>"Please."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Everyone''s faces turned even paler, and they didn''t dare to move for a moment, and they all looked at Xiao Wen.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    After being stunned for a while, Xiao Wen carefully observed for a while and realized that his brother really didn''t seem to have the intention of killing anyone. He gritted his teeth and nodded: <strong>"What are you standing there for? It''s rare for my cousin to entertain guests."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">No</em>. He secretly added in his mind that <em ss="chakra-text css-0">he had never been there.</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Seeing Xiao Wen nodded, everyone felt that their heads and fingers were somewhat guaranteed, and hesitantly followed the secret guards out.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Seeing that everyone was leaving and there were fewer and fewer people left, Zhong Yansheng''s heart skipped a beat, and he hurried to get up, but his knee was still hurting. He struggled for a while, and before he could get up, a hand reached out to him.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    It was a hand he was very familiar with, slender, broad, and strong. Although it was a prince''s hand, it was not pampered. There were calluses on the base of the thumb and all ten fingers, which caused both pain and numbness when they rubbed on the delicate skin.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhong Yansheng stared at the hand stupidly for a few seconds, the tips of his ears inexplicably reddened: <strong>"Thank you, Your Highness, it''s not necessary."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    The hand stilly in front of his eyes, not moving away.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    The breath as cold as snow followed the hand and brushed across the tip of the nose vaguely, with full of aggressiveness.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhong Yansheng didn''t dare to reach out his hand, and the situation remained tense for a few seconds. Xiao Wen turned his head and didn''t notice the strange atmosphere at all. He casually reached out and picked up Zhong Yansheng: <strong>"Brother, you scared him. It''s too sunny here. Young Master Zhong, do you want me to carry you to the side to apply medicine?"</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhong Yansheng had so many thoughts shing through his mind just now, but he didn''t expect Xiao Wen to block them all. He looked at him gratefully and said, <strong>"No need, I can go by myself. Thank you, Second Young Master Xiao."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    When Xiao Wen interrupted him, Xiao Nong withdrew his hand expressionlessly and red at him coldly.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Taxue also roared at him in dissatisfaction.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Wen felt a chill on his back, and he shrank his neck with a sad face, wondering how he had offended his brother again.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    And that Leopard, why was he baring his teeth at him for no reason?


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhong Yansheng didn''t understand why Xiao Nong''s attitude suddenly became so strange, and he didn''t know if he had noticed something. He didn''t dare to look at Xiao Nong''s expression, and said stiffly, <strong>"I will go to the side to get the medicine first. Your Highness, please go ahead."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Wen realized itter and felt something strange: <strong>"Young Master Zhong, your voice..."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">Why did you suddenly be so dumb?</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhong Yansheng was already terrified by what he said. He coughed heavily a few times and interrupted weakly: <strong>"Please give me a hand, Second Young Master Xiao."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Wen stopped talking: <strong>"Oh, oh."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    As he said this, he wanted to reach out to help Zhong Yansheng, but before his hand touched his arm, Xiao Nong suddenly said, <strong>"Taxue."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    The big cat had been ready to go. Upon receiving the order, he immediately flicked its tail and rushed over, lightly bumping into Zhong Yansheng.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhong Yansheng was caught off guard and fell on it. He was so nervous that he subconsciously grabbed its fur. The big cat took a step forward, and his eyes were blurred when it was sent to the stone bench under the shade of the tree.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhong Yansheng moved to a stone bench and sat down in a daze. Before he could react, he looked at Taxue with his eyes widened in surprise. In shock, he even forgot a lot of his previous fears and couldn''t help but praise: <strong>"You are awesome."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    The big cat gracefully shook its fluffy tail and seemed to be in a good mood.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhong Yansheng looked at its furry ears and big tail and wanted to reach out and touch them.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    But the cat''s owner was not far away, so he forced himself to resist the temptation of the big cat. He held the medicine bottle tightly, feeling nervous and not daring to apply the medicine in front of Xiao Nong.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    After hesitating for a while, Zhong Yansheng secretly looked up and found that Xiao Nong had turned around and left.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    <em ss="chakra-text css-0">It seems that he was overthinking it. His Royal Highness Prince Ding didn''t suspect anything.</em>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhong Yansheng''s heart was relieved again, and he bent down to fix the hem of his hair.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Taxuey beside him, wagging its tail, and looked at Xiao Wen coldly with its gray-blue eyes, refusing to let him get close.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Xiao Wen didn''t dare to offend this Leopard''s Master, let alone him, so he had to sit under the scorching sun and wait for Zhong Yansheng.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhong Yansheng slowly lifted his skirt, and as soon as his calves were exposed, Taxue''s long tail rubbed over, wrapped around his calves, and circled him. The big furry tail rubbed against his skin, which felt warm and itchy.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    He finally couldn''t resist the temptation, held the big fluffy tail and touched it in ecstasy.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    When Xiao Nong walked out of the courtyard, he nced at it with the corner of his eye and saw a piece of exposed, long and thin calf, which swayed happily in the air twice. It was white and looked like ice and snow.


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    He stood outside the courtyard: <strong>"Zhan Rong."</strong>


    <hr aria-orientation="horizontal" ss="chakra-divider css-mb99j7">


    Zhan Rong emerged from behind the tree: <strong>"Master?"</strong>


    <strong>"Send someone to check on Zhong Yansheng."</strong> Xiao Nong''s eyes were filled with deep suspicion. He paused and uttered two words, <strong>"Immediately."</strong>
