Chapter 99: Don't Get the Wrong Idea
Sun Jiaojiao didn't care about Xiao Yi's cold, foul face. She raised the medicine bowl, took a large sip herself, then aimed for Xiao Yi's mouth and poured it in, mouth-to-mouth.
Before Xiao Yi could react, his lips were covered by warm ones. He stared wide-eyed, awkwardly watching the Young Miss use this unexpected method to pass the medicine into his mouth.
The bitter and astringent taste of the medicine filled his entire mouth. It was the taste Xiao Yi hated the most.
But the slight warmth pressed tightly against his lips was like the sweetest strawberry in the world, making one unable to resist licking it, to taste her sweetness.
Sun Jiaojiao carefully used her tongue to pry open Xiao Yi's teeth, feeding the medicine into his mouth little by little, afraid that if she fed him too quickly or if it was too bitter, he would spit it back out.
Fortunately, Xiao Yi obediently finished the mouthful of medicine this time.
After finishing the medicine, his face was still red. He truly looked a bit like an innocent maiden whose chastity had been stolen by a villain.
"You, you have to drink your medicine and get better, then you'll have the strength to argue. Otherwise, you'll only be bullied by me." Sun Jiaojiao found his expression truly interesting and couldn't help but tease him a few more times. Then she took another sip of medicine and, following the same method, fed it into his mouth again, mouth-to-mouth.
She knew that if Xiao Yi hadn't blocked that sword for her, she would definitely be dead.
This man just had a bit of a foul temper, a foul face, and was a bit duplicitous, that's all.
The air became rarely quiet.
No arguing.
No dominant party.
The two of them, one quietly feeding medicine, one quietly drinking medicine. Although their lips and tongues were touching, there wasn't the slightest erotic flavor.
After a long time, the medicine was almost cold, but Sun Jiaojiao had finally finished feeding him the entire bowl.
"Men and women should not touch..." Xiao Yi had clearly drunk the entire bowl of medicine. On the last sip, he even deliberately pretended to lick the remnants, "accidentally" sticking his tongue out and tangling it with Sun Jiaojiao's sweet tongue. But when the words came to his mouth, they once again became the kind of grand reasoning that would annoy a woman. "Young Miss, please be mindful of your status."
But the current Sun Jiaojiao was no longer so easily angered by him.
She knew what kind of duplicitous man Xiao Yi was.
She deliberately put the bowl down, kept some distance from him, and retreated from the bed. She said in a serious tone, "Don't get the wrong idea. I wasn't trying to take advantage of you. If it wasn't to feed you your medicine, I wouldn't have wronged myself like this. You, from now on, obediently drink your medicine every day, and I won't have to 'not touch' and lower my status to feed a servant medicine."
Hearing this, Xiao Yi's anger nearly burned his ears. "Young Miss, what on earth do you take me, Xiao, for? A three-year-old child?"
"Of course I take you as..." Sun Jiaojiao giggled. "My lifesaver?"
"Lifesaver?"
"That's right, what else? If not my lifesaver, do you think I'd be willing to use a thousand-year-old ginseng to save your life? This ginseng was part of the imperial family's bride-price to me. There was only this one. How can you have the nerve not to drink it?!"
Xiao Yi fell silent after hearing this.
This was not the answer he wanted.
He pressed his lips together tightly. His lips, dry and cracked from excessive blood loss, looked like the parched earth in a drought, looking especially desolate.
"You just focus on getting better. Don't overthink it." Sun Jiaojiao loved seeing that desolate look on his face. Anyway, he had survived. They had a long future ahead. She was going to anger him slowly.
After speaking, she got up, tidied the medicine bowl, and looked as if she was about to leave after visiting the patient.
But just as she reached the door, she had to turn back and add one more sentence, stabbing him lightly in the chest: "By the way, the residence is full of the Crown Prince's men recently. You just rest well, don't run around. His Highness the Crown Prince is petty, tyrannical, and domineering. If he finds out you ate the thousand-year-old ginseng, he'll definitely skin you alive and make you spit it out."
Sure enough, when Xiao Yi heard the words "Crown Prince," his eyelids twitched, and his face turned from white to black, looking very unsightly.
