Chapter 003: You're My Man
According to the system, the special blood recovery tool is a character that can make Cheng Xi feel happy, and it must be Ji Chengjing.
"It's not Shen Rang? It's not scientific! ”
Faced with Cheng Xi's questioning, the system replied: "Ding! Lord Host, when you faced Shen Rang, you got more sadness and pain, but when you bullied Ji Chengjin, you sincerely felt happy and happy. ”
This...... Is there something wrong? How did she not know that she still had this particular fetish?
Cheng Xi grinded his teeth, his eyes fell on Ji Chengjin lying on the bed through the half-open window and the dim candlelight in the room.
Shui Yue returned to her during the day, Ji Chengjin suffered a flesh wound and was infected with wind and cold, and after going back, he was unconscious, and he had already taken the decoction according to the prescription of the imperial doctor.
Just as she was about to start her next move, Cheng Xi heard footsteps walking towards her, she hurriedly hid in the dark, and saw the only attendant next to Ji Chengjin Streamer entering the room, she couldn't help but look curiously.
Ji Chengjin has woken up, the streamer is changing his injury medicine, Cheng Xi has seen the skinny body for the first time, and the new injuries and old marks are criss-crossed, looking extremely scary, it can be imagined that the bullying he has suffered, as well as the living environment in the Yue Dynasty, is even more severe than imagined.
"Childe, Princess Mingruo is really hateful, this old injury has not healed and new injuries have been added, can you still survive until the day you return to Xinyang Kingdom?" Streamer complained distressedly.
Cheng Xi felt that Ji Chengjin looked over as if he had unintentionally, and just collided with her line of sight, and couldn't help but be stunned, and the weakness of her heart when she was caught made her hurriedly hide under the window.
"Be careful." Ji Chengjin came into her ears with a hoarse voice, "There is a dog in the yard that can only bite, you go and close the window." ”
Streamer wondered: "On weekdays, there are not even a single bird in this deserted yard, so how can there be a dog visiting tonight?" ”
Hearing the window "snap" shut overhead, Cheng Xi scolded angrily in his heart, saying that I am not a human, you are a real dog!
After changing the medicine and leaving, Cheng Xi thought of the unfinished task, listened attentively to the lack of movement in the room, and waited for a moment before walking into the room lightly.
It's all here, and you have to recover your health first.
Slowly approaching the bed, the shadow shrouded Ji Chengjin's body, he showed no signs of waking up, Cheng Xi was a little relieved, and stood in place and looked at him carefully.
didn't care about it during the day, but at this moment she found that Ji Chengjin was quite good-looking, with a straight nose like a peak, and sword eyebrows like paint, the only shortcoming was that he was too thin.
Seeing that his face was a little red, he thought that the fever had not subsided, although bullying a sick and weak beautiful man was suspected of taking advantage of others, but remembering that the system said that the trigger condition for blood replenishment must have physical contact, Cheng Xi could only smear and rub oil in the middle of the night.
According to the setting, the contact hand restores 10% health, and the maximum is 20% based on the duration.
Thinking of this makes me angry, can hell mode do whatever you want? Her life was taken care of by Ji Chengjin.
Cheng Ximao bent down, intending to hold Ji Chengjin's hand unconsciously, but she didn't think that she hadn't touched it yet, but she was slapped away by the other party.
Cheng Xi was startled, but she didn't expect Ji Chengjin to wake up, her body instantly lost her balance and fell on the bed.
"Do you want to ...... Do...... Do what?! ”
The sound of anger exploded above Cheng Xi's head, accompanied by Ji Chengjin's cough, and when she looked up after her anemia symptoms were relieved, she found that she was holding Ji Chengjin's right hand with both hands.
Ji Chengjin was obviously defenseless, he didn't shake it off for a while, his face was pale for a while, his eyebrows were full of anger, and a cold chill was bursting out of his eyes.
Cheng Xi's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and she felt that her old face was red, and she immediately stood up, but reality did not allow her to admit it, so she bluffed: "What are you doing, haven't you seen a girl who has a black light and a blind fire touching your room?" ”
Ji Chengjin just struggled to sit up, hearing this, he coughed even more, beads of sweat had appeared on his forehead, he covered his chest with one hand, pointed in the direction of the door with the other, and his lips trembled and said: "You...... You give me ...... Get out. ”
"Don't get too excited, I'm just here to visit."
Cheng Xi hurriedly shook her head and waved her hand to explain, just now she grabbed Ji Chengjin's wrist, her head immediately stopped dizzy, she stopped panting, her spirit was better, and her blood return was immediate, since the effect was so good, she didn't want Ji Chengjin to have an accident.
Ji Chengjin sneered when he heard this, this smile diluted the gloom and vigilance around him a lot, Cheng Xi's sharp eyes found that there was a red tear mole under the corner of his right eye, and he couldn't help but think of a sentence he had read in a photo book, a person with a tear mole has a long life of flowing water, half a lifetime of fluttering.
Thinking of what happened to him, and seeing that he was seriously ill at the moment, Cheng Xi was full of guilt and anxiety, and blurted out the words of assurance: "I'm sorry tonight, but don't worry, the people who live in my territory are my people, from today on, whoever dares to bully you, I will be the first to not allow it." ”
But these words were useless, Ji Chengjin's eyes were full of disgust when he looked at her, Cheng Xi had to leave embarrassedly, but after Ji Chengjin fell asleep again, she quietly returned to the room, wiped his sweat and cold compress for him.
The frowning young man, stripped of the cold and hard protective shell, and held her hand tightly, like a fledgling that had not yet spread its wings, it was completely impossible to imagine becoming a paranoid "war machine" in the future, but now, Cheng Xi felt that this fledgling could still be saved, and she would never allow Ji Chengjin to be so easily led.
Tossed until midnight, Ji Chengjin subsided his fever, and Cheng Xi's health recovery reached the upper limit, so he went back to sleep with peace of mind.
But she is a person with a martial arts background, the biological clock is used to getting up early to dance and play with swords, and now her legs and feet are not good and she can only cultivate, she yawned, and continued to take a nap while having breakfast, and Shui Yue's voice came from the door.
"Princess, Xiao Marquis Shen and Second Miss Jiang have come to visit you."
Cheng Xi hummed expressionlessly: "Then let them wait." ”
I thought that these two people would come, but I didn't expect them to come so early, they came this time, just to worry about yesterday's events, since she already has a plan, other people's emotional stories should not have her name, even if there is an intersection, it is just a relationship to maintain.
"Is Ji Gongzi feeling better?" Looking at the dessert sent by the red leaves, Cheng Xi changed the topic.
"Listening to the streamer, it's already much better, but it still needs a few more days of cultivation." Momiji replied truthfully.
Cheng Xi nodded, pointed to the food on the table, and ordered: "You send Ji Gongzi some nutritious and light breakfast, and then send these snacks over." ”
Hongye was quite surprised, on weekdays, when the princess heard that Shen Xiaohou was coming, she had already gone out, but now she snubbed him, and took the initiative to care about Ji Gongzi, thinking that yesterday she asked Shui Yue to ask the imperial doctor to treat Ji Gongzi's injuries, and today she sent a special snack made in the imperial dining room, she felt strange, what is wrong with the princess?
Cheng Xi saw through Hongye's thoughts at a glance, and she explained seriously: "Shen Xiaohou's heart belongs to Miss Jiang Er, no matter how I cover it, I can't cover it, in this case, why bother to find yourself unhappy and let others see jokes?" It's all about living your own life. ”
Hearing her say this, Momiji's hanging heart fell, it turned out that the princess finally figured it out, and of course she, as a personal maid, unconditionally supported the princess's decision, so she immediately went to prepare Ji Gongzi's breakfast happily.
Cheng Xi sat for a while before going to the front hall to see Shen Rang and Jiang Jingxian.
Jiang Jingxian, the second daughter of the prime minister, has been influenced by the Jiangnan Wanyue school since she was a child, and she is completely different from her who likes martial arts, she was born gentle and virtuous, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and is the white moonlight in the minds of many powerful sons in the capital, and she and Shen Ranglang are talented and beautiful, and they are really envious of others.
When Cheng Xi walked in, she happened to see Shen Rang and Jiang Jingxian clasping hands, this kind of childish and obvious demonstration, she couldn't help but sneer, she couldn't help but laugh out loud, it was really spicy enough.
Jiang Jingxian heard that there was a crimson color behind her, and immediately gave her a grand thank you gift, she also betrayed her personal favor, ignoring the twisted attitude of the two, and as soon as she was greeted and seated, Shen Rang pulled Jiang Jingxian up and opened her mouth.
"I just made us wait for a long time, thinking that the princess has a lot of affairs, and we have nothing to say to you, so we won't bother."
With Shen Rang's narrow bearing, I really don't know what to like, Cheng Xi smiled quietly: "Shen Xiaohou wants to leave, this princess won't stop you, this is originally the matter of my daughter's family, do you say?" ”
Shen Rang glared at Cheng Xi and said unceremoniously: "With someone as insidious and jealous as you, if I don't protect Jingxian, she will become a wisp of grievance in this palace sooner or later." ”
If there is a picture at this moment, Cheng Xi can definitely see that her blood bar is falling down little by little, although she doesn't take these slanderous words to heart, it doesn't mean that she hasn't been hurt.
Now she can't wait to block Shen Rang's mouth, and she doesn't want to have anything to do with these two people anymore, whether it is showing affection or acting in bitter love scenes, it has nothing to do with her.
Not in the mood to deal with them anymore, Cheng Xi said perfunctorily: "Miss Jiang Er is a well-known talented woman in the capital, and there are many admirers, so Xiao Marquis Shen must take good care of her." ”
"Cheng Xi, what kind of trick do you want to play?!" Shen Rang felt that she had something to say, and immediately said angrily, "Don't think that framing Jingxian and grounding her, you will be able to win the Huachao chess game in ten days, dream!" ”
Cheng Xi didn't understand his anger, but only said that he would personally apologize to the prime minister after he recovered from his injury, since he moved out of the Jiang family, Jiang Jingxian could only bear it even if she was embarrassed.
After that, she waved her hand, exhausted and let Shui Yue send off the guest, and just out of the hall door, she happened to meet Red Leaves coming back from Ji Chengjin's side courtyard.
Before leaving, Shen Rang overheard that Cheng Xi asked Hongye to send breakfast, snacks and tonic soup to Xinyang Guo's proton, and he was surprised, is this the flamboyant Princess Mingruo? But her temperament is still so elusive, and her expression and tone are still as proud as the flower of Kaolin, which is displeased.
