Chapter 139 Jealous
Chapter 139 Jealous
Gradually, she realized that something was wrong with her body. She felt a little chilly and had a bad feeling.
She stiffened her neck and slowly lowered her head, and saw the top of Li Siqi's head. She suddenly felt as if struck by lightning and was about to explode.
Li Siqi also noticed something at this time. He subconsciously raised his head and met Xu Yingying's gaze.
It only took Xu Yingying a few breaths to go from being shocked at first to feeling so ashamed and angry afterwards.
Xu Yingying's voice was a little hoarse, and she was not suitable to speak, but at this time, she couldn't help it, "Your Highness, what are you doing?"
Li Siqi finally came back to his senses, coughed twice awkwardly, subconsciously put the things in his hands behind his back, and looked away unconsciously. When he was seen by the person involved, Li Siqi felt his face burning.
Seeing Li Siqi stand up, Xu Yingying used the little strength she had to wrap herself in the quilt.
"Well, I was just helping you wipe your body just now. You've been in a coma for four days, and I didn't do it on purpose. Well, do you want me to help you?" Facing Xu Yingying's gaze, Li Siqi still opened his mouth to explain.
Xu Yingying refused, "I'm awake now, so I'll just need your care for the next few days, and I can handle the rest myself."
But having said that, Xu Yingying remained motionless and just stared at Li Siqi.
Li Siqi finally reacted, "Well, you go ahead and do your work. I'll be out first."
After saying that, Li Siqi hurried out. At this time, Xu Yingying breathed a sigh of relief.
No matter what, Xu Yingying knew that Li Siqi must know her identity. After all, she had been unconscious for such a long time, Li Siqi would definitely find a doctor to take her pulse.
The doctor is not Li Siqi. Li Siqi does not know the pulse, but the doctors of this era know it clearly. As long as they take the pulse, they will definitely find out that she is a girl.
What is even more worrying to Xu Yingying now is that Li Siqi actually wiped her body himself. He must have seen her naked. Thinking of this, Xu Yingying's bloodless cheeks suddenly flushed.
After tidying himself up, Li Siqi walked in.
Although Xu Yingying woke up, she was still a little weak. To be on the safe side, Li Siqi forced Xu Yingying to lie in bed for a few days.
A week later, Xu Yingying had fully recovered and jumped out of bed full of energy.
The first moment she was able to get out of bed, Xu Yingying took a nice bath. Although Li Siqi had never wiped her body since she woke up, Xu Yingying had to do it herself every time.
But it is still not as comfortable as taking a bath. After bathing and changing clothes, Xu Yingying breathed a sigh of relief and came to Li Siqi with a fragrant smell, of course, still in men's clothes.
"Here, this is for you." Xu Yingying said, handing Li Siqi a sachet.
"What is this?" Li Siqi did not refuse, but just looked through the thing in his hand and asked curiously.
Xu Yingying motioned for Li Siqi to open the sachet, revealing some small items inside. "Those are the amulets I made myself. If you carry them with you, they can keep you safe and ward off evil spirits. Ordinary things can't touch you."
Xu Yingying patiently explained to Li Siqi, "This can be considered as a thank you gift for taking care of me for so many days."
Li Siqi gladly accepted it and couldn't wait to put it on himself. "Thank you."
"By the way, Huang Shaohua has always wanted to see you, but you were recuperating before, so he was not allowed to see you. Now you are almost well, do you want to go and see him? He even sent me a note this morning, asking if you were feeling better." Li Siqi suddenly thought of this and mentioned it to Xu Yingying.
"Okay, now that the problem is solved and I have nothing to do, let's go see him." Xu Yingying agreed without hesitation.
Xu Yingying didn't look abnormal, and the things that happened in the cave didn't seem to have any profound impact on her. Camellia was secretly glad.
Arriving at the County Lord's Mansion, Huang Shaohua received the news and hurried out to greet them, "Your Highness, Master Xu, you are finally here."
Compared to Huang Shaohua's enthusiasm, Li Siqi said "hmm" indifferently, while Xu Yingying patted Huang Shaohua on the shoulder and said cheerfully: "County Lady Huang, long time no see, I hope you are well."
Huang Shaohua chuckled, "Thank you for your concern, Master Xu. I also owe the previous things to Master Xu. Otherwise, I am not sure whether I can keep my position as the county lord. By the way, I heard that Master Xu was not feeling well before, but he is feeling better now."
Xu Yingying waved her hand. "It's just a minor illness. It's nothing serious."
The two of them talked very happily and walked all the way to the front hall. Li Siqi followed behind them, staring at their backs, wondering what he was thinking.
When they arrived at the front hall, Huang Shaohua was still chatting with Xu Yingying after the servants served tea and snacks. He waved his hand and said, "By the way, to thank you for your help this time, Brother Xu, I have specially allocated a street for you in Jun County. This street has not been developed yet, so it will be yours in the future. You can make it whatever you like."
When she heard the word "a street", Xu Yingying's eyes lit up immediately. That was a street, a whole street. If it was developed, Xu Yingying would make a fortune.
"Oh, I'm so embarrassed, Lady Huang, but it's such a good intention of mine, so I can't refuse it, so I accepted it." Xu Yingying said with a smile as she took a sip of tea.
"Hey, Brother Xu, you are too polite. Given our current relationship, why should I call you County Princess? That would be too distant. I am older than you, so I will boldly call you Brother Xu. From now on, you can just call me Brother Huang." County Princess Huang only had Xu Yingying in her eyes, and she didn't care about Li Siqi who was sitting next to her.
"Okay, then I'll obey your command." Xu Yingying sat closer to Li Siqi.
Huang Shaohua was stunned by Xu Yingying's sudden behavior. Looking at Xu Yingying approaching, Huang Shaohua was a little at a loss.
Li Siqi next to them looked at the two of them with dissatisfaction on his face, and the dissatisfaction in his eyes was almost overflowing.
Huang Shaohua felt Li Siqi's gaze and suddenly felt uneasy, but Xu Yingying seemed not to notice and was still chatting with Huang Shaohua.
Huang Shaohua wanted to cry but had no tears, but fortunately Xu Yingying did not stay for long and left with Li Siqi.
