The Stunning Mad Empress: The Useless Third Miss-Chapter 58 - Do You Think Ill Let You Wash?
“Wow! Is the Honored One going to bathe the master?”
Qian Xun’s action of placing Xiao Qingcheng into the water was steady and gentle.
His magnetic, cool voice penetrated the screen and reached Little Pearl’s ears: “Do you think I’ll let you wash?”
Upon hearing this, Little Pearl shook her head vigorously like a rattle drum: “No, no, no! The Honored One, please! Cute and obedient Little Pearl is going to take a nap! Little Pearl won’t hear anything!”
Qian Xun looked at Xiao Qingcheng lying in the medicinal tub, his brows slightly furrowed.
“Three hundred wounds of various sizes. I’ve only been gone for a few days, and you’ve managed to get yourself into this state. How are you supposed to grow stronger in the future?”
Though his words seemed reproachful, they were tinged with tenderness.
His stunning eyes, slightly red, were filled with concern.
He reached out and lifted a corner of the cloth, gently wiping the wounds on the unconscious Xiao Qingcheng’s body.
The room was filled with mist and a pleasant fragrance.
In the quiet guest room, there was an atmosphere of warmth.
The next day, Xiao Qingcheng was awakened by the pain from her injuries.
“Ouch… it hurts!”
Her hoarse voice was laced with fatigue and weariness.
Xiao Qingcheng, opening her eyes slightly, seemed to see the gentle, floating curtains in front of her.
Between her breaths, she could also sense the faint, leisurely sandalwood fragrance…
Frowning, Xiao Qingcheng, who was already three parts awake, struggled to lift her neck to see what was going on.
“Little Pearl… Xiao Cheng… Where am I?”
“Calling out to other men so early in the morning. That doesn’t feel very good.”
A seemingly reproachful, magnetic voice sounded.
The next second,

Qian Xun, dressed in a purple robe, walked over with a gold-rimmed glass basin in hand.
He casually lifted the gauze curtain in front of Xiao Qingcheng with a hand as smooth as jade.
Xiao Qingcheng looked up and directly met Qian Xun’s deep, stunning eyes.
Those were eyes that could captivate one’s soul,
as if they contained the universe and the Milky Way within them.
Even after seeing them many times, one couldn’t help but want to look again and again.
“What? Are you infatuated with me?”
Qian Xun curled his thin lips into a smile, his expression languid and gentle.
It was different from his previous otherworldly demeanor.
Xiao Qingcheng came to her senses and quickly lowered her head: “Ahem, no. I was just curious about how you ended up here.”
Upon hearing this, Qian Xun placed the glass basin on the nearby rack, then walked over and sat on the edge of Xiao Qingcheng’s bed: “If I hadn’t come, how could you be safe?”
Xiao Qingcheng muttered under her breath: “Who says I’d see you after leaving Xiao Family Town? Hmph, you’re not trustworthy and you still have the nerve to say that?”
Qian Xun had excellent hearing; how could he miss such a reproachful remark?
“I had to leave for a few days due to some matters. It was my thoughtlessness that caused you to suffer. I’m sorry!”
Not far away, Little Pearl, who had just come back from a walk, climbed through the window and heard Qian Xun’s apology.
She was so startled that her paws loosened, and she fell to the ground.
“Waaah! So scary! The Honored One actually apologized! The sky is going to change!”
Upon hearing Little Pearl’s exclamation, Qian Xun flicked his finger.
A beam of light shot out,
and the window that had been open and shut closed completely.
Xiao Qingcheng also heard Little Pearl’s scream and coughed, her cheeks turning a bit red: “Ahem, I was wrong about you. You’ve saved me multiple times, and I really shouldn’t complain about you anymore. I should be the one to thank you.”
After speaking, Xiao Qingcheng paused for a moment, then looked up at Qian Xun and added: “Sorry!”
Qian Xun sat on the edge of the bed, his sharp eyes focused on Xiao Qingcheng.
Seeing this, he couldn’t help but curl his lips into a smile: “Alright, come and wash up and have breakfast. You have injuries, and although they’ve been medicated, you need to replenish some nutrition.”
Xiao Qingcheng nodded and tried to get up abruptly by pushing her palm against the soft bed.
But she winced and let out a “Sss…” in pain.
“Don’t move!”
Qian Xun stretched out his hand and stopped her with a stern face.
Xiao Qingcheng sat on the bed, looking puzzled: “How am I supposed to wash my face if I don’t get up?”
Qian Xun turned around, walked over, and picked up the gold-rimmed glass basin.
With a wave of his hand and a burst of inner energy,
the water droplets, wrapped in inner energy, lined up and gently splashed against Xiao Qingcheng’s tender cheeks.
There were also faint “popping” sounds, which were quite adorable.
“Wow! You can use inner energy like that?”
Upon hearing this, Qian Xun just smiled without responding.
Little Pearl, who had rolled in through the front door with a sore bottom, grumbled at her master: “The Honored One is so biased. He’d rather waste a lot of inner energy to wash the master’s face than let me in through the window.”
“Alright! Let’s have breakfast.”
Without touching, Qian Xun helped Xiao Qingcheng finish washing up with a wave of his hand. The snacks and porridge on the sandalwood round table flew over on their own.
“Wow! It smells so good.”
“Me too! I want to eat too!”
As soon as Little Pearl saw the food, the whole beast couldn’t bear it.
Only to see,
a round lump approaching the bed, half a meter away,
a barrier directly condensed around the bed.
Bang!
Poor Little Pearl was bounced out.
“Waaah! I hate you guys! You’re blocking the way for a beast! Do you even want this divine beast to live?”
Xiao Qingcheng first glanced at Qian Xun, who was holding the fish flake porridge, and then looked back at Little Pearl, who was rolling on the carpet not far away.
She hesitated and couldn’t help but speak: “How about… letting Little Pearl have some?”
“This is prepared for you. If it behaves, it will naturally have food.”
Qian Xun brought the porridge to Xiao Qingcheng’s mouth with a spoon,
his seemingly gentle words were filled with unyielding dominance and authority.
Xiao Qingcheng hesitated a bit: “Um, I can do it myself.”
Qian Xun sat opposite Xiao Qingcheng, a hint of displeasure flashing across his handsome face: “Are you sure you can hold the porridge by yourself after injuring the major tendons in your hands and feet?”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Qingcheng felt a jolt: “Uh, what was that ancient array I was in earlier? Why was it so powerful? And these injuries on my body…”
Qian Xun remained unmoved and took the opportunity when Xiao Qingcheng opened her mouth to feed her the porridge.
“Eat first, then talk!”
A bowl of porridge quietly reached the bottom.
Then, Qian Xun filled Xiao Qingcheng with a lot more food.
After that, Qian Xun, sitting on the edge of the bed and letting out a sigh of relief, finally spoke: “You have a total of three hundred injuries. Among them, more than twenty are extremely dangerous. To avoid any delay in treatment, I personally applied the medicine for you.”
“You… personally applied the medicine for me?”
Xiao Qingcheng’s eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at Qian Xun.
At that moment, the wound on her chest still hurt a bit!
So if it was really Qian Xun who did it with his own hands, then?
“A regrettable move, and I have to bear the reputation of being a lecher! Alas… it’s not easy to be a good person these days!”
