Chapter 239

"Pain, pain, pain, pain! Aiyo, be gentler, be gentler! "Chen Ning was in so much pain that she was gasping through her teeth. Her snow white right foot was placed on Mo Chuan's knee.

She forcefully pulled back her leg, but Mo Chuan held onto her foot without letting go.

"Now you know it hurts? Why didn't you make a sound at the horse track? " Mo Chuan rolled his eyes at her in annoyance. He held a bottle of bruising cream in his hand and was currently massaging her ankle to improve blood flow.

Chen Ning's ankle was swollen like a large steamed bun and tears were about to come out from the pain, but she said with an uncaring expression, "Why would I make a sound? Even if my leg was broken, that man wouldn't even look at it and wouldn't say a single word for me. Why would I show my bloody wound in front of him? In the end, he would just say: This wound is really ugly. If it's so ugly, then don't show it to others."

Xiao Ru's eyes were filled with tears, but when she heard this self-deprecating sentence, she couldn't help laughing.

But after she laughed twice, she wanted to cry again. Her heart felt even more uncomfortable than before.

"That bastard highness really deserves to die! Young miss, this servant really should have gone with you today. If this servant had gone, young miss wouldn't have been injured. "She wiped her tears as she leaned against Chen Ning's leg. The more she looked, the more her heart hurt. Her voice was filled with tears.

"Silly girl, speaking nonsense." Chen Ning smiled as she rubbed Xiao Ru's hair, "Alright, I'm fine. You should go rest now."

Xiao Ru shook her head, "This servant wants to stay here with the young miss."

"You're not a doctor, my leg won't heal faster even if you stay here. Obediently go to sleep and listen to me." Chen Ning sent Xiao Ru away like she was coaxing a child. Then she turned to look at Mo Chuan.

"Xiao Hei, you should also go to sleep. Give me the bruising cream, I'll rub it myself."

Mo Chuan did not reply.

He did not even look up as he continued his hand movements. His right palm was placed over her ankle and he secretly circulated his internal energy. He sent a gentle wave of energy into his palm, helping her dissolve the medicine.

Chen Ning gave a comfortable sigh. She felt like her right foot was soaking in a pool of warm water as a warm feeling spread throughout her limbs.

"Xiao Hei, your massage technique is really good. If you don't want to be an assassin in the future, you should be a masseuse instead. Perhaps you'll earn more money than killing people."

Chen Ning gave a yawn as she spoke in a drowsy voice.

Mo Chuan's lips twitched, but he continued to massage her like nothing had happened, not making a sound.

"To tell the truth, Xiao Hei, I thought you would kill him today." Chen Ning closed her eyes and the scenes from the horse track began to appear in her mind.

Mo Chuan softly said, "I won."

After a pause, she continued, "Because he didn't pay."

"Pu!" Chen Ning couldn't help laughing. She opened her eyes and looked at Mo Chuan with a funny expression.

"Yi," Xiao heed. "Tian, I, and," Xiao, Ning,

"Of course. Although I kill people for free, I never kill people like him for free." Mo Chuan replied in a serious manner.

Chen Ning smiled. She felt that not only was Mo Chuan mysterious, his words were also very interesting. He was not like the first time she met him, he was like a cold piece of wood.

When she thought of how he had saved her today, her heart warmed up.

"Ke, ke, Xiao Hei, are your injuries heavy?" She looked at him with a worried expression. He was wearing a human skin mask, so she couldn't see his expression, but his eyes were filled with spirit.

"It's already healed." He calmly said.
