The treatment took four hours. Only then could Xue Fanxin guarantee Gu Jinyuan’s life and that he would not die.

Fortunately, he was hardworking and had a strong will to survive. Otherwise, the outcome would be tragic.

“Phew… I’m so tired!” Xue Fanxin put down the medicine in her hand and stretched, looking exhausted.

Fuyun was about to go forward to serve her, but she was dismissed by Ye Jiushang with a look.

Ye Jiushang personally went forward to massage her sore shoulders. He then rubbed her temples with just the right amount of force.

Xue Fanxin enjoyed Ye Jiushang’s care and praised, “Ah Jiu, your massage skills are really good. Who did you learn it from?”

“How did you know it was me?” Ye Jiushang thought that Xue Fanxin had not noticed his existence.

“I knew when you walked over. The smell and aura of your body are different from others, and your presence is also different. It’s easy to recognize you.” Actually, Xue Fanxin knew he was here when she completed the treatment. If she wasn’t focused on treating a patient, she would be very sensitive to the people around her. Furthermore, they were under the same roof. If she did not notice Ye Jiushang, she would be really stupid.

“I thought that you only had eyes for the guy lying on the bed and not me!”

“Are you jealous?”

“A little.” Ye Jiushang generously admitted it right away. He did not blush or look away. He was serious as if he was talking about something important.

Xue Fanxin looked at Ye Jiushang’s expression. Coupled with his words, she felt that they did not match. She could not help but laugh. “Pfft… Ah Jiu, you look a little… cute now.”

“Don’t you think it’s a mistake to describe a man as cute?”

“Alright, alright! My Ah Jiu is very domineering, very mighty, very—”

Ye Jiushang pulled her into his arms and hugged her, cutting her off. He did not care that there were others present. He said affectionately, “Remember, I can allow you to help your friends, but I can’t let you place your heart on them. Your heart can only belong to me.”

“Can you not be like this? Everyone is watching!” Xue Fanxin had an awkward expression. When she raised her head and scanned her surroundings, she realized that all the maidservants in the room had their heads lowered. None of them looked at her, acting like they had seen and heard nothing. Even Fuyun was no exception.

Did they have to be so exaggerated?

“Isn’t it because no one is looking?” Ye Jiushang hugged Xue Fanxin even more tightly. He raised her chin with his hand and studied her face. He could not help but lower his head and kiss her cherry-like lips.

“Mmph…” Being kissed like this, Xue Fanxin’s entire body stiffened. She looked at him in a daze, her head buzzing. She had lost the ability to think. She just stood there, letting a certain lord kiss her little lips.

How could Ah Jiu kiss her in front of so many people?

This bastard, how hateful, how…

After Ye Jiushang kissed her, his mood improved a lot. He was no longer as depressed as before. His haze was swept away, and he looked much more cheerful.

“I’m in a very good mood now.”
