World-shaking First Daughter: Powerful Medical Princess

Chapter 143 - Sleeping Together

Chapter 143 Sleeping Together

The night was as cold as ice.

In Yuncheng county of Hanzhou prefecture, a dark shadow flashed through the empty streets. He was extremely eager, seeming to be eager to leave here immediately.

However, just as he was about to leave the town, a slender figure slowly came out of the darkness and appeared in front of him, blocking his way.

The dark shadow stopped abruptly. With a flicker of terror in his eyes, he clenched the golden arrows in his hand unconsciously.

“You can live for so many days. It seems that my men are not competent enough.” Xia Houmo, in a black suit, with a pair of deep and dark eyes, looked like Hell Shura.

Fengtian gritted his teeth and took a step back unconsciously. “I’m just taking money and doing things for others. It’s useless even if you find me.”

“Tell me the person’s identity, and I can leave you dead with a whole body.”

Fengtian narrowed his eyes. “The King of Jin should know that betraying the master is the most taboo for us. Although I’m afraid of death, I’m not a coward!”

While speaking, he put the golden arrow onto the bow and slowly pulled the bow to its full.

“I let you escape in Jin Mansion, but you won’t be so lucky now!”

As soon as his words came out, the golden arrow flew towards Xia Houmo’s eyebrows aggressively.

Xia Houmo condensed his internal force at his fingertips. When the golden arrow was only an inch away from him, he waved his big sleeves. With a loud noise, the whole golden arrow cracked.

Fengtian shrank his pupils and wanted to take the opportunity to escape, but Xia Houmo caught his feet.

The reason why Fengtian could be ranked among the top three killers was not because of his skilled martial arts but because of his shoot of golden arrows with unfailing accuracy and his light skills that could help him get rid of the chasers easily.

But these two skills were both useless in front of Xia Houmo!

After dozens of moves, Fengtian couldn’t resist, spit out blood, and fell to the ground.

Xia Houmo looked at him from above with his cold and bloodthirsty eyes.

“I give you another chance. Tell me, who is it?”

Fengtian snorted coldly but didn’t reply.

Xia Houmo raised the corner of his lips and slowly raised the sword in his hand. “Well.”

When the sword fell, Fengtian’s hands had flown away from his body.

“Ah!”

“Donglin, I want him to live in hell.”

“I see.” Donglin flew out, dragged Fengtian up, and turned away.

...

In Jin Mansion.

Su Muge tried to get up and walk by herself. It had been nearly half a month since she was injured. When she just woke up, Xia Houmo would stay in the room every day, making her greatly embarrassed. Fortunately, he seemed to be busy these days and hadn’t appeared for three days. She could finally exhale a sigh of relief.

“Your Grace, your wound hasn’t healed yet. How can you get up?” Yueru entered the room and was anxious to see Su Muge get out of bed.

“The wound is crusted. It’s okay.” The external wound was easy to recover, but it would take a while for the internal injury to recover.

“His Royal Highness would punish us if he comes back and sees you like this.”

Su Muge glanced at her with some displeasure. “Who on earth is your master?”

Yueru glanced at Su Muge and said with a faithful look: “Of course, you are our master. You don’t know that His Royal Highness cares so much about you. He orders us to guard you for 24 hours. If you have any discomfort, we have to send someone to tell him immediately.”

Su Muge didn’t think so. When she asked Xia Houmo the question that day, he didn’t answer at all.

In fact, there was no need to answer; his silence showed everything.

There was no affection between them; they were just living together and trying to lead a peaceful and tranquil life.

In the evening, Su Muge sat down on the couch after washing up. Her long and black hair was wrapped in a towel. She hadn’t been able to wash her hair since she was injured. Today, Yueru finally agreed to wash her hair. Now, she felt so refreshed.

It was still very cold now, and the room was warm with two braziers.

“Yueru, help me dry my hair. I’m a little sleepy. I’m still so weak with the injury. After the wound has fully recovered, I have to supplement my body.”

Behind her, someone untied the towel on her head, took another clean towel, and began to wipe her hair.

Before Yueru could make a response, Su Muge said. “Do you think I cannot leave Jin Mansion casually in the future? No, I have to talk to His Royal Highness about it.”

“What do you want to talk to me?”

Su Muge was so scared that she almost jumped up from the couch. She looked back and found Yueru had already disappeared. The person who was wiping her hair behind her turned out to be Xia Houmo who had disappeared for the past few days!

Xia Houmo was wearing a homely dark robe; he should have just bathed.

When did he come in? She didn’t even notice it!

Su Muge calmed down and put on a light smile. “Your Royal Highness, why don’t you let me know before coming over?”

Seeing that Su Muge was to move, Xia Houmo pressed her gently.

“Don’t move. Your hair is still wet.”

How could Su Muge let him wipe her hair? It was too intimate.

“Just let Yueru come in and wipe it.”

Xia Houmo didn’t release his hand. Su Muge was a little speechless. He was so overbearing. He didn’t ask her if she was willing. He just did as he liked.

Well, Su Muge would not struggle anymore. She just let him wipe it.

“Thank you, Your Royal Highness.”

Xia Houmo didn’t relax because of her compromise.

Time seemed to have stopped lapsing, and both of them kept quiet.

Su Muge only hoped that her hair would be dry soon. Being so close to Xia Houmo and overwhelmed with his breath really drove her mad.

“Done.”

“Thank you, Your Royal Highness.” Su Muge suddenly stood up from the couch, but she forgot that her injury hadn’t been recovered completely and her movement affected the wound. It was so painful that she couldn’t help mumbling.

“Why? The wound is affected?”

Xia Houmo tightened his black eyes and stepped forward to hold her.

Su Muge was very afraid of pain. When she was a child, she would cry for a long time for a pierced finger.

She nodded with a pale face, and Xia Houmo gently held her up.

Su Muge mumbled but didn’t struggle.

“Lie in bed obediently since you are injured.” He carefully placed her on the bed and covered her with the quilt.

Su Muge only felt the bed shaking, and Xia Houmo had already lain down beside her.

Xia Houmo had slept with her for a few days, but he hadn’t done anything. He just lay quietly beside her. His breathing was so quiet that he could be neglected easily as if he were a dead body!

But even so, Su Muge couldn’t help being nervous when faced with this situation again.

After Xia Houmo waved his sleeves, the room became dark instantly, and the frivolous gauze on bedstead fell, blocking the moonlight outside.

Su Muge opened her eyes and looked into the darkness. Then she reached out to pull the quilt on her body gently, telling herself to go to sleep. Only by sleeping well and eating well could she recover.

But as Xia Houmo’s temperature in the quilt attacked her, the rest of her sleepiness was driven away.

Just as she forced herself to fall asleep, Xia Houmo moved suddenly.

He turned sideways and put his slender arms gently on her waist, with his whole body leaning towards her. Su Muge could almost feel his light breath!

“What are you thinking about? Why are you still awake?” His low voice was like the paws of a kitten, tickling Su Muge’s heart and accelerating her heartbeat.

“Your Royal Highness, I have injuries.”

“Of course I know.”

Then why were you so close to me?!

“I’m a little hot ...” Could you please stay away from me?!

“I ask them to take away the braziers.”

“No, no, I’m fine.”

“Not hot?” As Xia Houmo spoke, his lips touched Su Muge’s ear lightly, making her tremble subconsciously.

“Not hot anymore!” Su Muge gritted her teeth.

“Go to sleep.”

“Okay, okay.”

Su Muge closed her eyes and felt that she couldn’t sleep tonight. However, Xia Houmo’s temperature gradually relaxed her. Within a quarter, her breathing gradually became even and she fell asleep.

Just as she fell asleep, Xia Houmo opened his dark eyes, touched her face gently with his fingertips, leaned sideways, kissed her soft lips, and slowly tasted it...

“Hmm ...” Su Muge felt a wet caterpillar creeping on her lips. When she opened her eyes, the sky outside was already bright. Looking aside, Xia Houmo had got up.

She pulled the copper bell in front of the bed and the door was pushed open. Yueru and Xinche walked in with a tray and a basin.

“Your Grace, you are awake.”

Su Muge nodded and felt her quite spirited.

After helping her wash up, Yueru and others helped her sit on a chair.

Soon, the maids came in with breakfast.

For breakfast, there was a bowl of vegetable and meat porridge and two steamed buns accompanied by three dishes and a bowl of soup.

“Your Royal Highness, pay my respects to you.”

Just as Su Muge was to take up the chopsticks, Xia Houmo walked in with the chill from outside.

After taking off his robe and giving it to the maid, Xia Houmo strode over to Su Muge and sat down.

Yueru stepped forward and handed him a hot handkerchief to wipe his hands.

“Your Royal Highness, you haven’t had breakfast yet?”

“Yep.”

Yueru hurriedly stepped forward and poured Xia Houmo a bowl of porridge.

Su Muge thought people like Xia Houmo who practiced martial arts should eat a lot.

Sure enough, before Su Muge could finish a bowl of porridge, the two steamed buns on the table had already been finished. Seeing this, she thought Xia Houmo was leading a simple life as a prince.

After drinking two more bowls of porridge, Xia Houmo put down the chopsticks, and the maids handed him some gargle tea and a handkerchief.

“After your injury is recovered, I’ll take you into the palace and thank the Emperor.”

Xia Houmo was the prince and they were granted the marriage by the Emperor, so they should have entered the palace and thanked the Emperor the next day after their wedding. However, it had been postponed because of her injury.

“Yes.”
