LOVE OR DESTINY

53

But of course Lian Cheng casually put away Xiao Tan's hand and lay by her side while looking at her intensely until Xiao Tan was embarrassed. Xiao Tan tried to turn around, but the effort instead made him frown in pain.

Lian Cheng immediately helped him rise up anxiously. Xiao Tan's wound had been bandaged, but he still had to recover. He should be examined by the palace healer. Lian Cheng immediately told Yu Hao to prepare the horse.

As soon as he arrived home, Lian Cheng hurried to carry Xiao Tan into his room. But the two concubines get in his way while noisily worrying about the attempted murder. Lian Cheng was upset and yelled at them to step aside.

But the clasping made Xiao Tan wake up and protest, "Your shouting is so loud, who can sleep then? Put me down."

Lian Cheng refused, "I will never let you go again. Don't you ever think of leaving my side."

Lian Cheng hurried to bring Xiao Tan in and lay him on the bed. He then gave his robe to envelop Xiao Tan and had Jing Xin help Xiao Tan take a bath.

He has business and will come back later. Lian Cheng came out and Xiao Tan stared at his departure with a shy blush.

Jing Xin noticed, it seemed like something had changed in Xiao Tan and Lian Cheng's relationship. What really happened to those two last night?

"Nothing has changed" Xiao Tan denied.

She told him that Yi Huai sent assassins, so she could not sleep well yesterday. And that fool Mo Lian Cheng tricked him just to bring him to the hot spring. That Lian Cheng had obviously planned it and deliberately scared him.

"What's? Home hot springs? So you two... Xiao Tan.. you...! You and the Prince didn't... didn't do that, did you?"

"Aiya! What the hell is your brain thinking? I'm scared all day, where do I have time to think about that kind of thing?"

"He was so sad. My fault. Next time you see your non again, you'll have to let me apologize to him. Tell him that from now on we should stop fighting."

"Xiao Tan, do you really mean it?"

Xiao Tan nodded solemnly. Thankfully, Jing Xin was really happy to hear that. Lately when the two of them were fighting, he was really very tired because of the two of them.

"Alright, alright! Next time I'll give you all the good food. Think of it as compensation for you." Xiao Tan's Promise. Delighted, Jing Xin went to prepare a bathtub for Xiao Tan.

Outside, Lian Cheng ordered Yu Hao to go to the royal medicine hall and tell the healer that Tan Er was seriously injured and that his life was in danger. He instructed Yu Hao to make a huge commotion.

Xiao Tan was about to take off the last layer of his clothes when suddenly Lian Cheng came in again. Xiao Tan immediately protested, why is he coming back again? Where's Jing Xin going?

"Are you ashamed?"

"All women will be ashamed."

"I'm familiar with every inch of your skin."

"You...!"

Lian Cheng suddenly approached then asked if he could act pretending to be sick? Sure oes. Even though Xiao Tan was not smart about anything else, acting sick and taking time off was his specialty.
