Chapter 402: Regaining what was lost

Thinking of Mo Chuan being outside, her heart turned warm and began to beat fast .  She quickly came of the tub and put on new, clean clothes .

When the sounds her dressing herself filled his ears, he couldn’t help thinking about it .  However, with his strong self restraint, he stopped himself from looking at the screen .

“Ah!”

Chen Ning finally put on the final belt and then her body went into the air, being picked up by someone .  She did not need to look back to know that this warm and familiar embrace was from Mo Chuan .

His eyes stared at her without turning .  Her fresh from the bath appearance was like a white lotus that had just bloomed, with water dripping down from her black cloud like hair .

“Mo Chuan, you didn’t keep your word .  You took a secret peek!”

His burning eyes saw her face turn red .

“This one did not take a sneak peek .  If this one wants to see, then I will look at you directly .  Ning’er, you really are beautiful . ”

His direct praise made Chen Ning’s face become even more red .  Especially with his passionate eyes staring at her, her heart was beating as fast as a little deer running .

He carried her back into the room and placed her onto a couch .  She wanted to stand up, but he pressed down on her shoulder .

“Don’t move . ”

“What are you doing?”  Chen Ning blinked her eyes .

“I’m applying medicine for you . ”

He opened a square box and took out a small porcelain bottle .  Uncorking the bottle, a cool herbal scent drifted out .

Chen Ning curiously looked into the box and found that there were various bottles inside of different sizes .

“Is this your treasure chest?”

“Be careful not to move . ”  Mo Chuan gently tapped the back of her hand to stop her from messing around, “There are blood stopping medicine inside this box . ”

Chen Ning stuck out her tongue and quickly pulled her hand back .

“Obediently lie down . ”  Mo Chuan took a bit of clear ointment on his finger and gently rubbed it onto the swollen red area on her neck, slowly rubbing it in evenly .

The ointment was very cool and very soothing .  After it was applied, the burning pain was soothed quite a bit .

He sat beside her, being very close to her, with a nice smell coming from his body .

Under the orange candlelight, his fingers were slender and his eyebrows were handsome .  His eyes focused and a variety of soft lights filled his eyes .

With such a handsome face, it was impossible for a young girl to not lose herself in it .

She unknowingly fell into a daze looking at it .

“Is this one good looking?”

“Yes . ”

As soon as she spoke, she realized what she said and her face turned red .  She could only feel the burning sensation coming from it .

A cool feeling came from her cheek as his fingers rubbed the cool cream onto her burning face, gently rubbing it in .

“Your face is red . ”  He calmly said .

Chen Ning immediately instinctively replied, “It is because I’m full of energy . ”

“Yi, why is it white again?”  He suppressed his smile and deliberately teased her .

“Because you’re applying medicine for me!”  She angrily glared at him .

His fingers stopped on her face .  The place she had been injured in was not her face!

“Ning’er . ”  He suddenly reached out his arms and pulled her into his embrace .  He hugged her in a gentle embrace, very gentle like he was holding a previous treasure .

In that instant, he suddenly felt like he regained something he had lost .

His hand stroked her hair again and again .  Leaning into his warm embrace, she couldn’t help closing her eyes and the corners of her eyes ached a bit .

This feeling of being cherished and loved by someone else was really good .

“Stay by this one’s side and I will solve all your problems for you . ”

He said in a determined voice in her ear .

Solve, how would he solve it?

As Chen Ning wanted to speak, he held the back of her head and tightly pressed her into his chest .
