“I want to spend the night here,” Xiao Mingyan said. Her true intention was to make sure that Long Sijue would punish Su Qianxun.
“You know my rules. I don’t allow outsiders to stay in the Jin Garden overnight. Please go home!” As Long Sijue spoke, he signalled the driver to come over.
Xiao Mingyan stared at Long Sijue’s expressionless face and realized that he was genuinely furious. She was frustrated and panicked slightly. “Am I an outsider? I am your mother! Are you angry at me because of a mere tool?”
“You’re overthinking. I’m not doing this for her. I just hate it when others carry out their little schemes on my turf. I hate being threatened even more so. Please leave now!” Long Sijue gave Xiao Mingyan a slight nod and signalled his staff to escort her away. He then left without looking back.
Xiao Mingyan was so infuriated that her chest began to ache. She stared coldly at Long Sijue’s figure as he left. She hands grasped the handles of her wheelchair tightly. Long Sijue had become more and more out of control lately. ‘No way, I can’t let this go on any longer!’
Long Sijue headed to the swimming pool right away. Su Qianxun did not obey his order to kneel by the pool. Instead, she sat on the ground and ma.s.saged her calf on the spot that Long Xixing kicked earlier on.
A large hand grabbed her hand. Long Sijue crouched down and rolled up the hem of her pants.
When Su Qianxun saw Long Sijue, her expression turned cold. The young woman pushed his hands away angrily. “Go away. I don’t need your attention!”
Long Sijue did not speak.
He completely ignored what she said. His gaze fell on her calf. There was a huge purple and green bruise on her fair skin. Someone must have kicked her in the calf really hard.
He knew that Long Xixing was the one who did that. A vicious, murderous glint flashed past his cold black eyes. ‘Looks like somebody needs a warning.’
Long Sijue extended his arms and lifted the young woman up from the ground. Su Qianxun was genuinely furious. She roared, “Since you don’t believe what I said, let go of me. I don’t want to go with you!”
“Have I ever said that I don’t believe you?” Long Sijue tightened his arms around her so that she would not struggle too vigorously and fall to the ground.
Su Qianxun froze. She furrowed her eyebrows as she looked at him. Long Sijue was gazing at her as well. The young woman pursed her lips tightly. “So what? It’s none of your business. Put me down!”
Of course Long Sijue would not listen to her. He carried her out of the back garden in his arms and went directly to his bedroom.
Su Qianxun wanted to get out of the bed and escape, but he shoved her back onto the bed and held her arm, refusing to let her go.
“What the h*ll do you want?” Frustrated, the young woman glared at him.
“Treating your bruise.” Long Sijue took out a tube of medicinal ointment. He released her arm, grabbed her calf and placed it in his lap. He then started to apply the ointment on her.
The young woman honestly could not figure this man out. A moment ago, he was so cruel and indifferent, as though he would not even spare her a glance even if she was dead. Then a moment later, he came to tend her injury.
“I said it’s not your concern. I’ll do it myself!”
Su Qianxun wanted to withdraw her calf. But he grabbed it even tighter.
Su Qianxun eventually gave in.
苏千寻,”…”
Long Sijue applied four to five layers of medicinal ointment on her calf. He rubbed the ointment tirelessly and did not stop until her skin had absorbed it properly.
As expected, after applied the ointment, the pain in Su Qianxun’s calf lessened significantly. Su Qianxun suddenly thought of Ye Gu, who was stomped on by Long Aotian, and furrowed her eyebrows. She was worried that the attack had certainly injured him badly.
Long Sijue reckoned that he had applied enough ointment on her and eventually let her go. Once Su Qianxun was released, she immediately got out of the bed and prepared to leave the room.
“Where are you going?” Long Sijue grabbed her.
“I’m going to check on Ye Gu. He must’ve been injured!” Su Qianxun did not give much thought to it and blurted out.
When Long Sijue heard that, he suddenly yanked her back into his arms.
