Chapter 80: Chapter 80 Whoever dares to draw a knife on you, I’ll take his life!_1 Chapter 80: Chapter 80 Whoever dares to draw a knife on you, I’ll take his life!_1 Actually, Princess An Jing was perfectly capable of combing her own hair, but she just wanted Xiao Changyi to do it for her, preferably for the rest of her life.
It wasn’t until Xiao Changyi had finished combing her hair that she pointed to the bed and said, “Sit there.”
Although he didn’t understand what An Jing intended to do, Xiao Changyi obediently sat down on the bed.
An Jing hopped over to the bed on one foot and began to remove Xiao Changyi’s shirt.
Xiao Changyi: “…” This early in the morning, isn’t this inappropriate…
Realizing the deep meaning in Xiao Changyi’s gaze, An Jing was both annoyed and amused, “What are you thinking? I want to check your wounds!”
Even though there were candles burning all night, the room was still quite dim, and she vaguely thought she saw many wounds on his body, but at the time, she was too distracted by his antics to pay attention to that.
Now, she wanted to confirm whether it was her illusion last night or if he really did have many wounds on his body.
Xiao Changyi suddenly grasped An Jing’s hand, stopping her from continuing to remove his clothes: “I’m not injured.”
An Jing frowned, “If you don’t want me to get angry, then let me see.”
Xiao Changyi sighed lightly with some helplessness before finally releasing her hand and allowing An Jing to continue undressing him.
As the shirt was completely removed, Xiao Changyi’s lean and well-shaped upper body was fully exposed to An Jing’s eyes.
Xiao Changyi’s body was covered with scars from knives, some shallow, some deep, some long, and some short. Even near his heart there were many deep scars, which were shocking at first glance, clearly indicating that the owner of this body had walked on the edge of death time and time again.
The more she looked, the colder An Jing’s eyes became, and eventually, those eyes slowly turned bloodthirsty and were filled with a killing intent.
Her voice was cold as millennia-old ice, each word deliberate and measured, “From now on, if anyone dares to draw a knife on you, I will take their life.”
Xiao Changyi didn’t respond immediately, but quickly dressed to prevent An Jing from continuing to look at his scars. Then, he embraced An Jing in his arms, comforting her softly, “These are all from the battlefield, it won’t happen again.”
An Jing didn’t speak, she just hugged Xiao Changyi back, hugging him tightly, so tightly.
He was all she had, no one else was allowed to hurt him!
After a while, An Jing’s emotions settled, and she lifted her head from Xiao Changyi’s embrace, smiling brightly, “Stop hugging me, I know you want to hug me every second of the day, but I really need to brush my teeth now~”
Xiao Changyi knew that An Jing had calmed down, a faint smile appearing on his cool lips as he gently touched her head before letting go.
Once she had freshened up, An Jing ate the hot meal Xiao Changyi had prepared—leftovers from last night, but compared to the cornbreads she had eaten before, they were incredibly delicious.
Looking at the table, there seemed to be enough leftovers for at least one more satisfying meal.
After eating, An Jing sat on a small stool in the courtyard.
Meanwhile, Xiao Changyi bustled about and finally, carrying the dirty clothes, he prepared to go wash them by the river.
But before he could even leave the courtyard, Xiao Zheng arrived.
Seeing Xiao Changyi carrying clothes ready to wash, while An Jing was sitting in the courtyard, Xiao Zheng immediately put on a stern face and reprimanded, “What does this look like! It was one thing when you weren’t married, but now that you are, a married man should not be the one doing laundry!”
Xiao Changyi remained silent.
Instead, An Jing pointed to her injured foot and said in a measured tone, “Clan Leader, have you not noticed? My foot is injured, I can’t even stand for long, how could you expect me to wash clothes?”
The implication was accusing Xiao Zheng of being blind.
