Chapter 430: Snow on the Desk of the Infatuated Alliance Leader (32)
After everyone in Biyun Courtyard had left, Jing Hengzhou's body moved slightly.
He was about to leave now because he needed to go down the mountain to see if his aunt had arrived at the inn safely.
After a few breaths, the shadow in the dark disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"..."
Shisuiyuan.
Bai Chao returned to the yard, walked into the house and sat on the chair with an expressionless face.
The servant who followed in saw Bai Chao's face and said, "Young Master, I'll get the medicine right away..."
"Bring me the wine."
The servant was stunned: "But Young Master..."
"I said, get the wine!"
"Yes……"
After the jar of wine was brought, Bai Chao did not let the servants serve him, but drank cup after cup of dry wine himself, not paying any attention to the wound on his face.
The servant closed the door gently, sighed slightly and shook his head.
The wound on the young master's face was probably caused by the master... If I don't apply medicine in time, I'm afraid it will swell up badly...
But he was just a servant, so how could he easily say anything?
The servant looked at the closed door, lowered his head and left.
"..."
It's quiet at night.
Jing Hengzhou jumped onto the roof as he did in the past and lifted up the familiar tile.
When he saw the scene inside the house, Jing Hengzhou frowned.
It was late at night, and he thought Bai Chao had already gone to bed, but he didn't expect that this man was lying among a pile of wine jars.
Jing Hengzhou jumped off the roof, quietly leaped into the house through the open window, and walked up to Bai Chao.
Why did you drink so much again...
He carefully helped the drunk man up, put his hands over his knees, and with a little force, he lifted Bai Chao up.
Jing Hengzhou held Bai Chao in his arms and sat on the bamboo couch where this man often sat, then he lowered his head to look at him.
Bai Chao was leaning in his arms with his eyes closed, his head slightly tilted, revealing a pale neck.
"..."
Jing Hengzhou looked at him quietly.
The man looked very well behaved while sleeping at this moment, and there was no trace of the arrogance and domineering look he had when he forced others to take the medicine.
He saw it clearly from the beam at that time. Bai Chao was indeed ruthless and almost poured the poison...
Jing Hengzhou raised his hand, and a gust of wind closed the wide-open window.
When he went down the mountain, his aunt and Mu Yan'er just arrived at the inn.
Because of Bai Chao's treatment of Mu Yan'er, my aunt had a very bad impression of Bai Chao.
Mu Yan'er had been frightened before and was still lying in bed unable to get up.
However, fortunately, Mu Yaner's aphasia suddenly recovered.
Jing Hengzhou also checked and found that her inability to speak was not due to poison or aphasia.
Instead, Jiang Yide used a special energy to seal her mute point.
When Mu Yan'er was pinched by Bai Chao, her mute point was accidentally broken. However, there was chaos at the time and Mu Yan'er was too frightened to realize that her throat had healed.
The aunt sighed that it was a blessing in disguise and greeted Jiang Yide's ancestors for eighteen generations.
"..."
Jing Hengzhou took out the hibiscus cream he had asked from his aunt, took a little, and gently applied it on Bai Chao's still red and swollen right cheek.
Bai Chao hummed unconsciously, and Jing Hengzhou's hand became lighter.
Jing Hengzhou applied the medicine, but his hand did not leave Bai Chao's cheek.
A hint of complexity emerged in his eyes.
The reason why he came to Jinghong Villa was because his aunt Jing Hanyue asked him to do so.
Because my aunt lived in Muchun Villa when she was young, she has known Mu Yan'er since childhood and they have a close relationship, just like real sisters.
But something unexpected happened to Muchun Villa later. My aunt was still in seclusion in Baicao Valley at the time. It was too late when she heard the news. She was still a step too late when she rushed over. By then, Muchun Villa had already been reduced to ashes.
She originally thought that Mu Yan'er had died in the fire.
However, when my aunt was building a clan temple for the Mu family at the former site of Muchun Villa, she suddenly found a piece of unburned paper.
That's half a letter.
The aunt could tell from the handwriting that it was written by Mu Yan'er. After carefully identifying what was written on it, she learned that Mu Yan'er suspected that there was something strange about her parents' sudden insanity, and wanted to ask her aunt to identify a medicinal herb, so she wrote this letter. However, before the letter was sent, Muchun Villa was burned down.
There wasn't much information to be found in half a letter, but my aunt still became suspicious.
After much investigation, she finally found out that a banquet was held at Muchun Villa the night before the accident of the Mu couple.
The last person to leave Muchun Villa at that time was Jiang Yide.
The more the aunt thought about it, the more suspicious she became, so she entrusted the matter to Jing Hengzhou, which triggered a series of subsequent events.
Jing Hengzhou gently stroked Bai Chao's cheek.
He had intended to find out the truth in Jinghong Villa and then leave in secret, but he did not expect to meet someone here, a...
The person who made him feel sad...
He knew clearly that this person had a ruthless character and cruel methods, but he couldn't feel any disgust towards him...
"Langyu...can you please not do this again in the future?"
"Well……"
Bai Chao seemed to be awake a little. He half opened his eyes and rubbed Jing Hengzhou's hand in a daze.
"..." Jing Hengzhou stroked the soft skin in his hand and said softly, "I'll take you to bed."
"Do not……"
Bai Chao said incoherently: "No...I want to...bathe..."
"Bath?"
Jing Hengzhou thought of the hot spring in the ear room.
"Okay, I'll take you there."
Jing Hengzhou picked up the person and walked towards the ear room.
The hot spring in the second room was still steaming with white mist.
It turned out that the servants had already changed the hot water in the pool and were just waiting for the master to come and bathe.
"..."
Jing Hengzhou placed the person in his arms on the chair and reached out to undress him.
The clothes fell to the ground one by one.
Jing Hengzhou's hand finally stopped on Bai Chao's blindfold.
He hesitated for a moment, but still did not take off the man's blindfold.
Jing Hengzhou took off his coat, picked up Bai Chao again, and walked into the hot spring.
The hot water flowed over the exposed back, causing the person in his arms to groan softly.
Jing Hengzhou held the man and sat by the pool, letting Bai Chao lean more comfortably in his arms. Then he picked up the soft towel beside him and slowly wiped the man's neck downwards.
Bai Chao moved, tilted his head a little, and his hot breath sprayed on Jing Hengzhou's neck.
Jing Hengzhou's Adam's apple rolled slightly.
"Lang Yu..."
Bai Chao's hand pushed his chest softly: "Hot..."
"..."
Jing Hengzhou then realized that his body temperature was incredibly hot.
He held the woman's waist tightly with one hand and stroked her cheek with the other hand again.
The hibiscus ointment made by my aunt was very effective. In a short time, the swelling on the man’s face disappeared.
Bai Chao closed his eyes, frowned slightly, and muttered about being hot, trying to push him away.
Jing Hengzhou suddenly lowered his head and kissed her.
"Well……"
A vague whimper escaped from Bai Chao's throat.
After a long time, Jing Hengzhou let go of the man's lips and kissed all the way down, from the neck to the collarbone, before stopping.
Jing Hengzhou's lips left Bai Chao's collarbone, and he was very restrained so as not to leave any marks.
He stood up and hugged the person who was collapsing in his arms.
"Lang Yu..."
Bai Chao lay in Jing Hengzhou's arms, breathing slightly, looking at him confusedly, not knowing what was going on.
Jing Hengzhou's heart softened and he kissed Bai Chao again before picking up the soft towel floating on the water and wiping the man's body.
After Jing Hengzhou cleaned Bai Chao from head to toe, he kissed the man's shoulder which had turned slightly red from being soaked in water.
"I'll go get your underwear."
The man's spare clothes were not seen in the ear room, so they should be in the closet in the inner room.
Jing Hengzhou carefully leaned the person against the edge of the pool and was about to get up and leave the hot spring.
"what!"
Bai Chao, who was leaning quietly by the pool, suddenly covered his eyes with a painful look on his face.
"my eyes……"
Jing Hengzhou was stunned and quickly stepped forward to hold Bai Chao's face.
"Langyu, what's wrong with your eyes?"
"itch……"
Bai Chao's face was filled with unbearable pain, and he couldn't help but raise his hands to dig out his eyeballs through the blindfold.
"Lang Yu!"
Jing Hengzhou grabbed Bai Chao's hand and said, "Don't move. I'll help you."
Bai Chao seemed to understand what he said, but he kept turning his head away and refused to let him take off the blindfold.
"Can't……"
“You can’t look at it…”
Jing Hengzhou put a little force on his hand and held Bai Chao's chin: "Langyu, be obedient."
"don't want……"
But how can a drunk man be better than a sober man?
Jing Hengzhou didn't let the man move and reached out to lift Bai Chao's blindfold.
But as soon as he lifted a corner of the blindfold, the person in his arms suddenly resisted violently.
"do not look!"
Bai Chao suddenly regained consciousness from the itching pain in his eyes. He looked at the man in front of him in astonishment, "Who... who are you?! Someone come here! There is..."
"..."
Jing Hengzhou didn't hesitate and directly blocked Bai Chao's lips.
"Well!"
Bai Chao's lower back hit the pool wall and was pressed tightly against the man's body.
"Don't! Don't touch me...ah..."
Jing Hengzhou didn't give him another chance to speak. Their lips and tongues were tightly intertwined, drowning out all sounds. Bai Chao could only be forced to tilt his head back to endure this passionate kiss.
Jing Hengzhou kissed the person while touching Bai Chao's blindfold.
Bai Chao seemed to be aware of something and struggled hard in his arms again: "No...you are not allowed to touch me!"
Jing Hengzhou could only hold Bai Chao's face and kiss him hard.
"..." Bai Chao was confused by the kiss again. The alcohol started to rise and he slowly stopped struggling, becoming intoxicated in this kiss.
After a while, Jing Hengzhou finally let go of Bai Chao's lips, and everything calmed down again.
"Langyu, are your eyes still itchy?"
But the person in his arms seemed extremely tired and said nothing.
Jing Hengzhou lowered his head.
Bai Chao was leaning quietly on his chest, his eyes closed, dozing off unconsciously.
"..."
Jing Hengzhou's fingertips lightly rubbed the eye mask on Bai Chao's face.
Did he just see it wrong?
A faint shadow leaked out from under this person's wet eyelashes.
Why is it...blue?
He reached his fingers under the blindfold and gently touched the man's eyelids.
But this person's eyes were still closed, so he could only touch the soft eyelashes.
"..."
Jing Hengzhou gently pressed the eyeball with his fingertips and touched around the eye, but could not feel anything unusual.
His eyes looked normal to the touch, but this person didn't want others to see them.
Jing Hengzhou withdrew his fingers and looked at the person in his arms in silence.
Why did this person's eyes suddenly itch just now?
Could it be that this blocked eye is sick again?
Jing Hengzhou said softly: "Langyu, your eyes...how did you become ill?"
But the person in his arms was already fast asleep and could not answer his questions.
Jing Hengzhou touched Bai Chao's blindfold again, and finally let go of his hand and picked him up from the pool.
He has another trip down the mountain.
As the owner of Baicao Valley, my aunt has seen countless difficult and complicated diseases.
Maybe my aunt can cure Bai Chao's symptoms.
Jing Hengzhou wiped the man's body dry, found a long towel to cover him from the wind, and then carried him into the inner room.
He found some underwear for Bai Chao to put on, and then laid him down safely on the bed.
"..."
Jing Hengzhou sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Bai Chao who was sleeping soundly.
This person was sleeping very soundly and he didn't wake up no matter how I fiddled with him.
Jing Hengzhou covered Bai Chao with the quilt, held his hand and kissed it, put his hand back into the quilt, and stood up.
He blew out the candle on the bedside, and the room became pitch black, with only a few rays of moonlight leaking in through the window.
Jing Hengzhou looked at the person sleeping in the night for a while before turning around and leaving.
……
Qingyun City Inn.
Jing Hanyue was about to open the door holding a bowl of medicine.
"Yan'er, this medicine is warm in nature and not bitter at all. Drink it while it's hot."
Mu Yan'er leaned weakly against the bed: "Hanyue, it's late at night and the dew is heavy, don't go out to boil medicine again."
Jing Hanyue smiled and said, "Don't worry, this is the last dose of medicine, and I'm boiling the medicine in that small yard. There's a shed there to block the wind, so it won't be a problem."
As soon as Jing Hanyue came in with the medicine, Mu Nan stepped forward and said, "Let me do it, Valley Master."
"..."
Jing Hanyue glanced at Mu Nan.
She had noticed before that this boy had been trying to please Yan'er.
How could a disciple who had just entered the valley stand out so well?
Jing Hanyue handed the bowl of medicine to Mu Nan, but her brows were furrowed.
"Mu Nan, you kid... could it be that you have some improper thoughts about Yan'er?"
Mu Nan's hand shook suddenly and the medicine almost spilled out.
Jing Hanyue: "Hey, take it easy, is it okay? If not, I'll do it."
At this time, Mu Yan'er suddenly called Jing Hanyue: "Hanyue."
"Yan'er?"
"Hanyue, don't you remember him?"
"……what?"
Hearing Mu Yan'er say this, Jing Hanyue looked at Mu Nan's face carefully, and suddenly felt that he looked familiar.
Why do some parts of Mu Nan's face look so much like Yan'er...
Jing Hanyue turned her head in disbelief: "Wait, could he be..."
Mu Yan'er smiled and nodded slightly.
Jing Hanyue's tears immediately burst out.
Jing Hanyue knew that Mu Yan'er had a younger brother who was ten years younger than her. He was frail and sickly and was often kept in the house.
She would occasionally see the little boy when she was staying at Muchun Villa, but the boy would hide when he saw outsiders.
The young Jing Hanyue thought her brother was cowardly, and she was not willing to play with a sickly child, so she had a very shallow impression of Mu Yaner's brother.
But I didn't expect that Yan'er's brother was still alive...
It was a great blessing that two people survived the Mu family that was destroyed overnight!
"Hanyue, don't cry..." Mu Yan'er's eyes turned red and tears fell down.
