Her phoenix eyes shifted as she spoke with her usual tone: "Afraid it might fall, I keep it here."
Xiang Ying pointed to the area near her chest.
This trickery, meant to deceive Tao Xue, unexpectedly caused Jie Chen's expression to change on the spot.
His cold eyes slightly widened.
So, the medicine that Xiang Ying applied to his eyes last time was stored at that spot...
Jie Chen's gaze retracted as if electrified.
"Absurd!" His expression became exceedingly complex, his ears flushing red under the glow of the firelight.
Xiang Ying suppressed the urge to burst into hearty laughter, leaning against the rock wall to sit up beside Jie Chen.
"I will apply the medicine for you."
"No need!" He quickly blocked her fingertips.
Xiang Ying then placed the medicine bag into the palm of his hand. Seeing Jie Chen still wanting to refuse, Xiang Ying said: "You don't have to use the medicine, but with your injury, if not treated, it will fester by summer."
