This morning, Angier's fingers seemed to be moving, and then she started to open her eyes. Beautiful eyelids, like the petals of peach blossom in bloom, and her eyes sparkled so beautifully.
She then took a sitting position, and she seemed to remember the last incident she had. Namely, she was strangled by the figure she helped. Yes, that figure… that handsome but very scary-looking man.
She gasped, then she heard sparks blazing, and the sweet smell of food smelled very real.
"Are you awake?" the hoarse voice startled Angier. Then she quickly retreated while pulling the blanket that was on her body.
Wait… a blanket? And this new outfit? Angier turned her head, saw a figure sitting in front of the fireplace. His mouth seemed busy blowing fire on the long bamboo to set the fireplace. And his hands seemed busy fanning something that was on fire.
His clothes were now changed, not torn clothes covered in blood. He was already dressed in a light blue dress, with jet black hair that he neatly combed. The dragon-shaped hair ornament looks very cute on his black hair. The man, completely different from the one she had met last night.
Actually, what happened that night? When she fainted after being strangled by that handsome man? Angier really couldn't remember it at all.
"Who changed my clothes?" asked Angier in a harsh tone. The man then put the food into two small bowls, and then he put it on the table. The man approached, making Angier spontaneously step back.
"Last night your body was wet, your clothes were wet, so I changed it," Chen Liao Xuan replied. His tone hung slightly, then the corner of his eyes caught the figure of Angier, who still didn't seem to believe what he was saying.
"I didn't feel like I was in the shower or in the rain last night. Because the memory I remember is, you strangled me very painfully," Angier snapped.
Chen Liao Xuan smiled again, and then he handed the bowl of porridge to Angier. Reluctant to take, Angier only watched as Chen Liao Xuan started to enjoy the porridge while occasionally blowing on it.
"Last night maybe there was a bit of a misunderstanding, you know, I wasn't feeling well. I thought you were one of my enemies, disguised and exploiting my weakness. But I guess I was wrong," Chen Liao Xuan explained.
Angier smiled sheepishly, and even sorry did not come out of the man's mouth, making Angier even more annoyed. She was about to massage her sore neck, but she felt something on her neck. A necklace that made Angier even more confused.
"Oh, that, I found it, looks like it fits perfectly when you wear it. So I put it on for you."
"Wait, sir! There's something odd here!" Angier looked back at Chen Liao Xuan fiercely. Different… different from last night, the look in the man's eyes seemed very gentle, the handsome face of the man looked even more enchanting with a faint smile adorning his lips. Anqier's focus became shaky, and then she coughed to refocus her concentration. "You… you changed my clothes in what way?" investigate later. Her brows knit together, and she already pointed her index finger right at Chen Liao Xuan's face. "What does that mean if you take off all my clothes? Then you with your own dirty hands took off my clothes and put them in new clothes? Is it really like that?" she asked then. The blush on her cheeks was absolute, making Chen Liao Xuan smile again. If… if only the little girl knew if she had done more. What will the little girl do to him?
"Do you think I have magic that can take off and change your clothes without me touching and seeing your body? No, Miss, I'm an ordinary human who doesn't have that kind of magic ability."
Angier immediately hugged her own body, and she looked at Chen Liao Xuan with an annoyed look. For a moment, her hand flew to hit Chen Liao Xuan's cheek, but everything changed when Chen Liao Xuan caught the hand and pulled Anqier's body so that it fell entirely into his arms.
Angier tried to break free, but Chen Liao Xuan didn't let that happen. Chen Liao Xuan's warm breath seemed very real to blow on Anqier's cheeks, which added blush to her face.
"Sir, don't be rude. Just so you know, I-"
Chen Liao Xuan lightly smacked Anqier's lips, and then he let go of the kiss. His lips seemed to smile, seeing the little girl frozen in place with her eyes wide open.
"Why? Haven't you ever been touched like that by a man, Miss?" said Chen Liao Xuan?
Plaque!!
Anqier's anger swelled. Her face was flushed, then she rubbed her lips roughly. The tears were already hanging in the corners of her eyes.
"Don't you be rude!" angered Angier in a trembling voice. "What do you think I am, huh? I am a daughter of an esteemed healer! Which is not even for me to touch any man before we do the first night of the wedding! I'm not a slave, not a prisoner, not a lady-in-waiting, or a cheap woman in the border house that you can abuse like this, sir! Don't you have any shame, huh? After my kindness saved you, you even insulted me!"
Angier immediately got up from her seat. However, she felt excruciating pain in her groin. She almost fell, but she managed to get up straight then looked back at the man with a more fierce expression than before.
"Remember, Master, from today onwards, never appear before me!"
After saying that, Angier immediately left. Her steps slowed, and then she grabbed hold of one of the trees because she was not strong enough to walk. What is this? Why is it running out of power? Her body was frail, and her groin was sore and sore. What happened last night? Had that man been torturing her last night, or was it taking away her energy until she became like this? Since she remembered what her father had said, she had to take good care of her body. Because from within her body, there is divine energy that not everyone has.
"What happened to me?" groaned Angier. Cold sweat started to trickle down her forehead, and then she almost collapsed before Chen Liao Xuan caught her body perfectly.
Chen Liao Xuan's breath seemed to be ragged, and he felt a little regretful for overdoing it to this little girl. After all, he's from among the humans. Indeed what he did last night would hurt her to this extent.
Chen Liao Xuan opened the little girl's mouth, and then he gave half of his inner strength to restore the little girl's power.
