Chapter 110 The Little Girl’s Plea

Chapter 110: Chapter 110 The Little Girl’s Plea

"Princess."

Nan Xing and Ruolan also realized something was wrong and called out to Chu Baihan in confusion.

But Chu Baihan had already calmed down.

She nodded lightly but did not speak anymore.

The group wandered aimlessly around Prince Residence.

Before they knew it, they had walked to the front of Yan Jingjing’s room.

From inside came Yan Jingjing’s complaining voice: "I don’t want to apply the medicine, I don’t want to!"

"Miss, if you don’t apply medicine to your wound, it will be very difficult to heal," the maid advised earnestly.

But Yan Jingjing was extremely uncooperative.

"If it’s hard to heal, then let it be hard to heal. After all, no one would care about me anyway. Father only cares about the eldest princess; he doesn’t care about me at all."

Hearing Yan Jingjing’s complaining words, Chu Baihan, as if possessed, stepped into the room.

Yan Jingjing was originally crying, with her eyes brimming with tears, but when she looked up, she saw Chu Baihan enter.

Her little face stiffened, and she quickly turned her body away, then furiously wiped away her tears.

"What, what are you doing here?"

When she turned back around, she asked Chu Baihan in a muffled voice.

This little girl, she really cared about saving face.

Chu Baihan raised an eyebrow but did not expose the other party.

She walked over slowly and said casually, "The Princess was just coming to see if the Little Princess Consort was wasting the Princess’s kindness, that’s all."

"What, what do you mean?"

Yan Jingjing raised her head and stared at her awkwardly.

"You were injured and it was the Princess who applied the medicine for you. If you don’t heal quickly, wouldn’t that be wasting the Princess’s good intentions?" Chu Baihan said calmly.

Yan Jingjing pouted her lips. Although she felt that Chu Baihan made sense, she didn’t want to submit to Chu Baihan.

So she could only sulk and say, "My body is my own, and I’ll do what I want with it."

Her mind, it turned quickly indeed.

Chu Baihan continued, "But if you don’t take good care of your body, your father will be angry, and he won’t like you anymore."

Strike the snake at its vital point.

Her words successfully made Yan Jingjing panic.

She fiddled with her fingers nervously and finally compromised.

She said to the maid beside her, "Then, apply the medicine for me."

Watching Yan Jingjing’s actions, Chu Baihan’s eyes flickered with emotion.

Although this little girl’s temperament was a bit unruly, her concern for Yan Lin was careful and cautious, for fear that Yan Lin would not like her.

Was this their usual way of interacting as father and daughter?

"Let the Princess do it."

Chu Baihan reached out to take the medicine from the maid.

"Yes, Princess," the maid, overwhelmed by Chu Baihan’s presence, handed over the medicine and then quickly left as if relieved of a heavy burden.

"I don’t want you to do it, I can manage myself..."

Yan Jingjing said very awkwardly.

Chu Baihan looked down at her, feeling a great shift in her mood.

In her eyes, Yan Jingjing was just a little girl desperately lacking love.

"The Princess won’t laugh at you," Chu Baihan said softly as she quickly lifted up Yan Jingjing’s clothes and applied the medicine.

Although her movements were quick, they were not rough.

Feeling the coolness on her knee, Yan Jingjing carefully raised her head and stole a glance at Chu Baihan’s face.

It was at this moment she felt that the eldest princess in front of her wasn’t so detestable...

She was really gentle, especially reminiscent of, the figure of her mother in her dreams.

Thinking of this, Yan Jingjing tightly clenched her sleeves, her eyes filled with melancholy.

Chu Baihan was so close to her that she could naturally sense the change in her emotions.

Frowning slightly, she directly asked, "Is it the wound that hurts?"

"No, it’s not."

Yan Jingjing hurriedly lowered her head for fear that her emotions would be exposed.

But what she didn’t know was that Chu Baihan had already noticed her subtle emotions.

"You talk about your mother every day, so where is she? Why doesn’t she live with your father, the king?"

Hesitating for a moment, Chu Baihan still decided to ask the question.

However, she wasn’t trying to understand Yan Lin, but to see through this little girl.

"My mother is busy; she will come back to Prince Residence soon to be with me," Yan Jingjing said defiantly, raising her head high.

"So, what kind of person is your mother exactly?" Chu Baihan pursed her lips and continued questioning.

"My father says that my mother is a wise woman, with excellent medical skills, and she’s different from ordinary people. She likes to be wilful, but father loves her just like that..."

Whenever she spoke of her mother, Yan Jingjing’s eyes shone brightly, and her brows danced with delight.

Chu Baihan’s eyes lowered slightly, hiding the emotion within.

It seemed that Yan Lin was truly smitten with that woman; otherwise, it wouldn’t have affected Yan Jingjing so much.

"Actually... you’re quite good."

It was at this moment that Yan Jingjing muttered quietly.

Upon hearing her praise, Chu Baihan felt somewhat flattered.

She glanced sideways, her gaze falling upon Yan Jingjing.

Feeling self-conscious under her stare, Yan Jingjing bashfully bowed her head: "You are of noble status, and they all say you’re more formidable than other princesses. And you have medical skills, plus you’re beautiful..."

Hmm?

Being praised so highly by the other party, Chu Baihan’s look took on a deeper meaning.

She asked directly, "Tell me, what is your purpose in praising this princess?"

"I, I have no purpose!"

Yan Jingjing denied nervously.

But after a while, she silently lowered her head, nervously twiddling her fingers, then said softly, "What I praise is all true, but I have a small wish. It’s that you are so great, you could marry someone else, right? Just don’t compete with my mother for my father..."

"My father truly loves my mother. Every time he drinks and gets drunk, he would call out for her..."

"I understand. I will never choose your father," Chu Baihan interrupted Yan Jingjing’s words.

She found it ironic inside herself; Yan Lin wasn’t as sincere as a child.

Deep down, he still had another woman on his mind, so why did he feign deep affection towards her?

He might as well have been honest with her because then...

She could have chosen to wish them happiness.

"Alright, you rest now."

Seeing the bottom of the medicine jar, Chu Baihan got up.

Since the little girl saw her as a rival to her own mother, she naturally didn’t want to stay any longer...

She didn’t want to trouble a little girl, so she decided to leave.

But just as she turned around, Yan Jingjing’s voice came from behind her.

"Princess Regnant, beautiful sister, if you don’t marry my father, we could be very, very good friends."

She blinked her innocent eyes and said to Chu Baihan with all seriousness.

Chu Baihan turned back and couldn’t help but laugh.

This little girl...

She was indeed persistent.

Her mother was truly fortunate.

Taking a deep breath, Chu Baihan said calmly, "Don’t worry, we’ll be good sisters. I have no interest in being someone’s stepmother."

Having said that, she turned and left once more.
