Liqiu looked up as Xiaolian returned, she glanced from the bowl to Xiaolian's face. "What_"
Xiaolian interrupted her, "I heard about the beatings, you must be in pain. Take off your blouse, applying a cold compress will help with the pain".
"Umm.... okay", Liqiu replied, her back hurt as she lifted her hands to untie the knots of her blouse but she still endured.
She carefully removed her blouse, skirts and undergarments, until she only hand her inner wear on
When she was done, Xiaolian gestured for her to lie on her stomach, on the stiff bed.
Wetting her lips, Liqiu glanced around and sure enough, a few of the maids had stopped talking and quietly watched them.
She covered her chest with her hand self-consciously with a pained expression.
Xiaolian glanced at the maids with a frown, she kept the bowl beside her bed and picked up her blanket.
