Chapter 717: Chapter 717: Trust 9

Her hand was split open, and oozing blood; the bandage was somewhat red.

But it was nothing serious, and only needed to be reprocessed.

After Jiang Jingxin was interrupted, he fell into a slight silence and said no more.

Mu Lingyun carried water to the bedside.

Miao Zhengyi, seeing this, tried to help Ji Luochen up but was pushed away by him.

After pushing Miao Zhengyi away, Ji Luochen climbed up by himself.

At that point, unable to watch, Mu Lingyun reached out to help him.

So, without declining, he directly took hold of Mu Lingyun’s hand and sat up.

Miao Zhengyi: ...

Seeing such a scene, he began to deeply question himself.

Why was His Highness willing to let Mu Lingyun help him up but not willing to let himself help?

This was discrimination! This was unequal treatment!

How could His Highness do such a thing?

However, Mu Lingyun and Ji Luochen paid no attention to what Miao Zhengyi thought.

Mu Lingyun set the tea aside, helped Ji Luochen sit up, and even placed a pillow behind him.

Then she picked up the tea and handed it to Ji Luochen.

Miao Zhengyi, unable to bear watching, spoke up, saying he was going out to handle some matters at the moment, and then turned and left.

Mu Lingyun and Ji Luochen paid him no mind.

After Miao Zhengyi left, Ji Luochen had already finished drinking the water.

He was about to place the cup aside. Seeing this, Mu Lingyun reached out to take it.

But Ji Luochen did not hand the cup over to her; instead, he set it on the table himself and then took her hand.

Her palm was originally wrapped in white linen.

Now, the linen was stained with fresh blood.

Ji Luochen unwound the linen from her hand and saw the fierce, reopened wound.

He looked at Jiang Jingxin and asked, "Hello, do you have any medicine for treating wounds?"

Jiang Jingxin, knowing Ji Luochen wanted to treat Mu Lingyun’s wounds, said nothing and directly took several bottles of medicinal powders.

He also explained to Ji Luochen what each was used for.

Having heard this, Ji Luochen ceased speaking and began to lower his gaze to treat Mu Lingyun’s wounds.

Mu Lingyun watched him sincerely treating her wound, a smile on her lips.

She said nothing more, remaining perfectly still, allowing Ji Luochen to hold her hand.

Jiang Jingxin watched the two share a peaceful and beautiful moment, feeling somewhat conflicted.

His expression paused, then he turned and left.

-

Ji Luochen’s movements were gentle but not slow.

It wasn’t long before he finished retreating Mu Lingyun’s wound.

Mu Lingyun felt the pain subside, moved slightly, and said, "Thank you, Your Highness!"

Ji Luochen looked at Mu Lingyun very intensely, as though he were trying to see right through her.

Mu Lingyun, feeling somewhat unnatural under his gaze, asked softly, "Your Highness, why are you looking at me like this?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Luochen’s lips curved slightly, and he asked lowly, "Mumu! You call me Your Highness? Is that how you address me?"

Mu Lingyun was a bit surprised and replied, "If I don’t call you Your Highness, then what should I call you?"

"Think of something yourself!" Ji Luochen said.

Mu Lingyun: ...

She suddenly remembered something.

Even at the time of their recent meeting, Ji Luochen had told her to think for herself what she should call him.

Later, it was the system that reminded her to call him "Brother Luochen."

"You ... Brother Luochen?" Mu Lingyun looked at Ji Luochen and tentatively called out.
