Chapter 340: I Feel Hot

When Wei Zichao mentioned the duty, Shi Qingxue’s face stiffened.

In fact, Shi Qingxue understood Wei Zichao’s hidden meaning and even the reason why he said that.

However, seeing Mo Junyang’s red and swollen arm, she couldn’t stop feeling guilty, so she agreed at once. “Let me do it. I will be more careful.”

Shi Qingxue picked up the ointment again and applied it to Mo Junyang’s wound gently, rubbing it.

Mo Junyang didn’t say that it hurt anymore. He lay on his stomach obediently and enjoyed the moment.

Wei Zichao saw that and couldn’t help but wink at Mo Junyang, indicating, “How is it? Am I a nice helper?”

Mo Junyang tilted his head and glanced at the guard. “Zichao, don’t you have something important to do?”

Shi Qingxue nodded. “If you have something important, just do it. Junyang is safe here, and he will be fine.”

The guard who didn’t have a sleep for one day and night after coming down Tan Mountain with the master was speechless.

Fine! It was not his first time to know that Mo Junyang was best at kicking down the ladder when it came to something about Shi Qingxue.

The “ladder” guard admitted his destiny and nodded before leaving.

Shi Qingxue didn’t know Wei Zichao’s resentment but paid all attention to Mo Junyang’s wound.

Nevertheless, before she rubbed it for long, Mo Junyang stopped her first. “Fine. Leave it at that.”

Noticing that Mo Junyang endured it from his voice, Shi Qingxue thought that she had hurt him, so she withdrew her hand. “How…How are you feeling?”

Mo Junyang answered in a hoarse voice, “I am fine.”

It didn’t sound that he was fine.

“Don’t try to be brave. If I hurt you, you must tell me. I will ask Doctor Shen to come…” Shi Qingxue didn’t believe Mo Junyang’s “lie”. She got up and planned to bring Shen Luo.

Mo Junyang had to stop her and tell the truth. “I am really fine. I am just…”

While speaking, Mo Junyang had a blush on his tan skin unexpectedly.

Shi Qingxue blinked and almost thought that she was dazzled.

“You what?”

Mo Junyang had been thick-skinned for so many years, and it was his first time to feel embarrassed to speak, while Shi Qingxue opened her eyes wide and stared at him, which made him more awkward.

“What’s wrong with you?” Shi Qingxue believed that Mo Junyang was fine, yet she still insisted on asking for an answer.

Mo Junyang couldn’t conceal his shyness. He gritted his teeth and confessed, “I just feel hot.”

“Ah?” Shi Qingxue didn’t understand, so she stared at Mo Junyang blankly. “Why do you feel hot in winter?”

Mo Junyang ignored his dignity and gazed at Shi Qingxue’s fair-skinned and ruddy face, saying meaningfully, “You have seduced me just now. What do you think makes me feel hot?”

Shi Qingxue finally understood what the word “hot” meant.

Redness spread from her neck to her smiling face.

She didn’t dare to meet Mo Junyang’s eyes where there seemed to be something that would absorb her.

“What nonsense are you talking about? I… I won’t talk about this with you.” Shi Qingxue was restless.

As soon as she got up, Mo Junyang grabbed her, still with his wounded arm.

Shi Qingxue didn’t even dare to struggle but remained still obediently.

Mo Junyang finally stopped frowning and said in a gentle tone, “I will be fine after I stay quiet for a while. Don’t go away. Stay and talk about something else with me.”

Shi Qingxue wasn’t an inexperienced girl. She knew that he just needed to be quiet and then distract attention.

However, thinking that she needed to make him distract attention, she still felt shy.

“What do you want to talk about?” Shi Qingxue felt awkward, and her voice was shaky, as if she were playing the woman.

It made the man feel burning hot in his heart after hearing that.

Mo Junyang coughed deeply and forced himself to look away and stop imagining.

“How do you plan to deal with your brother?”

Mo Junyang talked business seriously, and Shi Qingxue wasn’t so shy anymore. She just looked at him in confusion. “I won’t do anything. I just take care of him for my parents now, yet how can I take care of a baby? Moreover, after Mother recovers, she will accept my brother.”

Shi Qingxue thought that Dong Hui couldn’t accept her first son because of postpartum depression but would accept him as long as she recovered and returned normal.

“Hmm.” Mo Junyang didn’t think so.

Obviously, he could see things more clearly than Shi Qingxue and consider things more deeply.

Dong Hui didn’t like her first son and even wanted to kill him because she took him as a monster, which couldn’t be explained with merely postpartum depression.

Even so, who could be sure about when Dong Hui would recover? What if she wouldn’t recover so well as to accept her first son?

All these might happen.

Even though Mo Junyang thought so, he wouldn’t speak it out. He just stated, “Shen Luo has experience in taking care of a baby, and he is a doctor. Just leave the baby to him.”

“Right? I almost have forgotten that he has a sister. Her name is…”

Shi Qingxue remembered the lovely and nimble little girl she had met when she went to Mang Mountain to look for the doctor. She asked hesitantly, “Shen Xiao, right?”

Mo Junyang nodded. “Right. That’s his sister, and he brought her up.”

“Xiao is only thirteen or fourteen years old. Why doesn’t she live with Doctor Shen now?”

After Shen Luo left Mang Mountain, he stayed in Duke Shi’s mansion for a period. Later, after his relationship with Mo Junyang was revealed, he didn’t hide it anymore, so he lived in King Rui’s mansion openly.

However, Shi Qingxue had never seen the little girl again after so long.

“Shen Luo sent her to Rui City. It’s…” Mo Junyang paused for a moment and seemed to hesitate.

In the end, he still disclosed the whole secret. “It’s safe there.”

When Shi Qingxue heard the words “Rui City”, her eyelids trembled involuntarily.

She suddenly looked at Mo Junyang. “That Rui City?”

In the previous life, Shi Qingxue only knew one place named Rui City, King Rui’s fiefdom, the place where Mo Junyang rested, recovered and started to send troops to rebel.

That was Mo Junyang’s base.

However, in this life, Mo Xiangrui seldom went to Rui City since he was titled and the fiefdom was given to him, while Mo Junyang had been raised in the capital city as King Rui’s heir since childhood.

Was Rui City that city in the past?

If outsiders heard Shi Qingxue’s question, they must think that the words “that city” they talked about meant its location, but only Mo Junyang knew that she asked about the control power of Rui City.

So Mo Junyang nodded and answered without concealment, “Yes.”

Rui City was always Mo Junyang’s domain.

Shi Qingxue got nervous after hearing Mo Junyang admit it. She looked around subconsciously and then heaved a sigh of relief after confirming that there was nobody else in the room. “Why did you say that without delay? What if walls have ears?”

Although Shi Qingxue knew that Mo Junyang didn’t fear this, the cards in his hand should certainly be kept secret if he could.

“It doesn’t matter,” Mo Junyang replied casually as expected.

When Shi Qingxue frowned worriedly, he continued with a smile, “Don’t worry. Zichao is outside.”

In another word, nobody could be so capable as to escape from Wei Zichao without being noticed.

Shi Qingxue instantly got relieved and laughed at herself in secret as it was a waste of time to feel worried.

On second thought, with Mo Junyang’s abilities and carefulness, how would he be not alert?

“That’s great. Great,” Shi Qingxue responded repeatedly and suddenly realized that Mo Junyang must have said that to her not just to show her his actual strength.

Mo Junyang expressed, “Rui City is safe. If you have no place to arrange for your brother, you can send him to that city, and I will tell some people to take care of him.”

It turned out that he just considered everything for her.

Hearing Mo Junyang’s words, Shi Qingxue felt warm.

She couldn’t help but grab Mo Junyang’s hand, while her eyes twinkled. “I know. If I need to do that, I won’t hesitate to ask you for help, yet…”

Thinking of the current situation in Duke Shi’s mansion, Shi Qingxue thought that it was not the worst time, so she didn’t need to consider sending her brother away. “He looks tiny. Although Rui City is nice, I still want to keep him not far away in the capital city and watch him. I believe that my parents must also think so.

“Moreover, Doctor Shen is still in the capital city. How would I rest assured if he doesn’t keep an eye on the baby?”

Mo Junyang just gave Shi Qingxue a backup plan and didn’t care if she would use it.

In fact, Mo Junyang didn’t know that Shi Qingxue hid another reason from him.

No matter how safe Rui City was, she wouldn’t send this brother or anybody to take sanctuary.

Mo Junyang had done too much for her, and she didn’t want his secret base to be exposed because of her.

The two stayed in Duke Shi’s mansion temporarily.

Shen Luo’s ointment was magical. Mo Junyang’s shoulder blade had been red and swollen, looking horrible, but after the ointment was applied, it was not red or swollen in less than two days.

As long as Mo Junyang didn’t practice martial arts forcefully, it was fine in daily life.

However, Shi Qingxue insisted on telling Mo Junyang to lie in the bed and have a good rest.

Mo Junyang who had been roughly raised was unable to be still for longer, but his protest was in vain, so he was laid up for several days, till Dong Hui’s personal maid Mammy Zheng came.

This day, Shi Qingxue sat under the sun in early spring and enjoyed the sunshine while shaking the cradle to comfort her brother. At the same time, she chatted with Mo Junyang casually.

Mammy Zheng coughed in a feigned manner to attract the couple’s attention. Then she said in a loud voice, “My Lady, nice to see you.”

It didn’t look like a servant came to greet the master, but a eunuch came to declare an imperial edict. She almost raised her tail to show her loftiness.

This old maid was skilled in assuming someone else’s authority as her own.

Shi Qingxue frowned slightly. “Mammy Zheng, what’s up?”
