Quick Wear: The male protagonists all fell in love with her at first sight
Chapter 163: The Cold and Noble Prince (17)
Every time Jiang Rou touched him, Ji Huaian would feel a tingling sensation rushing straight to his tailbone. Whenever this feeling came, Ji Huaian would subconsciously clench his fists, relying on his strong self-control to not lose his composure in front of Jiang Rou.
Because the muscles were tense, the wound would bleed when pulled. Jiang Rou, who was applying medicine to Ji Huaian, couldn't stop crying when she saw the wound that couldn't stop bleeding, and wanted to go outside to find a doctor.
Ji Huaian looked at the sky outside. He was not at ease letting her run around alone, so he grabbed Jiang Rou's hand to stop her from running outside.
Seeing Jiang Rou crying, Ji Huaian shook his head helplessly. He said, "It's getting late, and the clinic should have closed long ago. You won't be able to find a doctor if you go out now." Then he pulled Jiang Rou in front of him and comforted her softly, "Please apply the medicine for me first, and I'll call a doctor tomorrow, okay?"
After hearing what he said, Jiang Rou sat down following the force of his hand and continued to apply medicine on him with tears in her eyes. Afraid that the wound would bleed again, Jiang Rou moved more gently.
Jiang Rou looked up and suddenly saw Ji Huaian's forbearing expression and his forehead was covered with sweat. She thought Ji Huaian was like this because of the pain in the wound, so she took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat off his face and said gently to him, "Prince, just bear with it, it will be fine soon."
Ji Huaian lowered his eyes and looked at Jiang Rou. Her eyes were red because she had just cried. Her brows were slightly furrowed. Her long eyelashes cast a shadow on her face. She had a small nose and a rosy little mouth. She looked perfect in every way.
The beating sound in his chest was so deafening that he could only see Jiang Rou's small mouth opening and closing, and could not hear any sound at all.
Suddenly, a tingling sensation made him feel numb again. He looked down and saw Jiang Rou breathing gently towards his wound. Because Jiang Rou lowered her head, the tears in her eyes dripped as she moved.
The tears fell on Ji Huaian's arm, burning his chest and making it itchy. The numbing feeling hit his heart directly, making his heart ache. The calm and self-controlled gentleman almost lost his composure.
He came back to his senses only when Jiang Rou bandaged his wound and called him softly. Jiang Rou thought he was injured and needed rest, so she urged him, "If you are tired, rest early, Prince."
Under his force, Ji Huaian lay on the bed. Jiang Rou tucked the quilt for him, extinguished the candle and left the room. Ji Huaian slowly opened his eyes after hearing the door close.
His uninjured hand was gently placed on his chest, feeling his surging heartbeat. He had been without the company of his parents since childhood, so his emotions were already weak. He also grew up in the harem where people’s hearts were complicated, which also made Ji Huaian’s heart cold and hard.
But tonight his heart, which was frozen in ice, was unusually active, and he only knew what this meant.
He stared at the top of the bed curtain and analyzed his heart carefully. Maybe it was her fragility and helplessness that moved him first, and then her optimistic attitude and a few words resolved his discomfort, or maybe it was her hot tears just now that melted the ice in his heart.
Here, the man in black covered his wound and walked back to the main courtyard. He pulled off his mask and Qi Yan vomited blood. The wound on his abdomen oozed blood and dripped onto the floor.
After walking a few steps, Qi Yan fell to the ground. Due to excessive blood loss, her face was pale and she kept spitting blood from her mouth. The pain in her abdomen made her curl up.
Suddenly Qi Yan heard a hurried voice. He looked in the direction of the voice and saw Fang Xuchuan walking towards him.
Seeing Qi Yan like this, Fang Xuchuan shouted "Yan'er" in pain, then quickly ran to Qi Yan and hugged her in his arms.
Fang Xuchuan was crying and his voice was full of pain, "Yan'er, hold on, I'll go find a doctor for you." As he said that, he wanted to run out of the house. Qi Yan grabbed his hand and shook her head slightly. She suppressed the pain and said with difficulty, "Don't go, it's no use, just stay by my side for the last while."
When Fang Xuchuan heard her say that, he burst into tears. Qi Yan reached out to wipe his tears, but her hands could not be raised. She smiled and comforted him, "Don't cry, don't cry. It is God's gift for me to meet you in the second half of my life. I'm just afraid that I won't be able to accompany you in the days to come."
Fang Xuchuan kept shaking his head and cried, "No, what nonsense are you talking about."
Qi Yan did not interrupt him, but just looked at him with a hint of attachment in her eyes, as if she was immersed in memories. She slowly said, "Husband, do you still remember the first time we met?"
Fang Xuchuan kept nodding his head. Qi Yan chuckled upon seeing this, her voice full of nostalgia, "At that time, I was chosen by the master to be Cui's substitute and come to you, but you didn't know that I had seen you before that."
Qi Yan was completely lost in her memories, and she spoke in a halting voice, "I was only sixteen years old at that time. I was excluded because I held back others in a mission. I remember that day I was sitting behind the rockery crying, and you suddenly rushed in."
Thinking of the good memories, Qi Yan had a happy smile on her face. "When you saw that I couldn't stop crying, you said a lot of nonsense. You didn't stop until I was tired of crying, but your voice was so gentle and so beautiful."
"Later, I was assigned this mission. As a shadow guard, I had no right to refuse. But when I saw you, I just felt that God still favored me."
After hearing her words, Fang Xuchuan was crying so hard that he couldn't speak. Qi Yan wanted to say something but suddenly vomited blood. Fang Xuchuan hurriedly wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth.
After a pause, Qi Yan continued, "Husband, the master asks for too much, you must get out of here as soon as possible." Suddenly, she felt a pain under her body.
Qi Yan looked at the dagger on her heart and the indifferent man in disbelief. She wanted to ask why, but her vision became more and more blurry, and she didn't ask until she was completely plunged into darkness.
Fang Xuchuan pulled out the dagger and stood up. The painful expression on his face was gone. He was also involved in Qi Yan's death. He deliberately expressed his willingness to take the risk alone. He didn't expect that Qi Yan would really knock him out and take the risk alone.
Only if she died would the theft of the letters not be known to the higher-ups. Fang Xuchuan was certain that what he had done would not be discovered so quickly, which also gave him time to escape.
Fang Xuchuan sneered, thinking about what Qi Yan had just said, it was ridiculous. In his heart, his only wife was Cui Wan. How dare a chess piece like him have so many thoughts? He deserved to die.
Fang Xuchuan stepped over Qi Yan's body, took out the oil barrels that he had prepared long ago and scattered them around her, took out a fire starter to light a fire, and then walked out of the room without hesitation.
Qi Yan was engulfed by the flames, and then the whole house was set on fire. The flames in the sky woke up the sleeping servants.
The fire gradually died down, and when it was completely extinguished, Qi Yan's charred body was carried out. Fang Xuchuan fainted upon seeing this, and everyone was in chaos again.
When Fang Xu woke up, he burst into tears. His reputation of loving his wife was known throughout the entire Lin'an City.
Seeing him like this, everyone only felt that natural disasters were cruel and would not connect Qi Yan's death with Fang Xuchuan at all.
When Ji Huaian learned about Qi Yan's death, he just laughed coldly. He also saw the flames all over the sky last night. Why was there no maid or old woman guarding the huge main courtyard? It was not discovered until the fire became too big.
Why was it that Madam Fang died in a sea of fire just after he was assassinated last night? The reason can be known with a little thought.
Thinking of what people said about Fang Xuchuan's beloved wife, Ji Huaian just felt it was ridiculous. He didn't believe that Fang Xuchuan didn't find out that the letter was lost, and if the content of the letter was leaked, Fang Xuchuan should know his fate, and Mrs. Fang was Fang Xuchuan's pawn.
Ji Huaian was sitting at the desk in his pajamas, writing something. A knock on the door interrupted his thoughts. He put down the pen in his hand and shouted "Come in" towards the door.
Jiang Rou entered the room carrying a copper basin. Seeing Ji Huaian holding a pen, she looked disapproving and said, "The prince's injury hasn't healed yet, how can you use so much force?" Then she put down the copper basin and snatched the pen from Ji Huaian's hand.
