Chapter 20 - 20 019 Stop Itch

Chapter 20: 019: Stop Itch Chapter 20: 019: Stop Itch “Changling, I just didn’t help you find your cat.”

His expression was saying: Miss Wen, do you want to poison me to death?

Miss Wen wasn’t angry, she educated Mr. Xie.

“It’s poisonous if taken internally, but when applied externally, it can draw out poison and relieve itching.”

Xie Shang still sat without moving, watching Changling intently.

The girl who slashed her wrists as a pledge of devotion, willing to marry no one but him, had he ever gazed at her like this? His earnest attention could indeed bewitch people, making them feel as though they could do anything for him.

“Don’t you trust me?”

Finally, Xie Shang lowered his head and leaned his face toward Changling: “You’ll be responsible if it disfigures me.”

I can’t afford that.

If his face were insured, it would probably be worth a fortune.

With no tools at hand to apply the medicine, Changling could only use her fingers. She carefully dipped a little bit of juice pounded from the tender leaves and dabbed it on Xie Shang’s forehead, her touch so light, as if she hadn’t touched him at all.

His drooping eyelashes occasionally fluttered.

It turns out he can be obedient too.

The mosquito bite on the left side of his face was also carefully medicated, and Changling didn’t forget to instruct: “If you touch the area where the medicine was applied, you must wash your hands.”

Her hands were cool and very soothing to the itch.

The incense burner placed on the ground was burning fast due to the wind, with the scent of Healing Wood lingering around, a clear and clean woody fragrance.

This was clearly a scent that sharpens the mind, yet Xie Shang found his thoughts hard to focus and slowly acknowledged with a “Mmm.”

Changling hesitated for a moment: “Should I apply it to your neck too?”

Xie Shang didn’t say anything, simply tilting his head back to expose his neck. The arc of his Adam’s apple became prominent due to the upward tilt, with slender neck bones protruding from the cold white skin, surrounded by red marks from a scratch.
