Yun Dan: ???
Seeing that the situation was urgent, she could only lift the blanket, push Xiao Yueqing to the innermost part of the bed, and cover him with the blanket again.
When Dongfang Wuchen came in, he saw Yun Dan sitting on the edge of the bed with her legs bent.
Although it looked somewhat strange.
But Dongfang Wuchen didn’t think much of it.
He just sat down not far away on his own.
“How did you come here, Young Master Dongfang? I was just preparing to rest. It’s so late and you haven’t slept yet?”
Dongfang Wuchen immediately felt a bit embarrassed.
He had originally thought to come check on Yun Dan’s injuries before sleeping, but didn’t expect to encounter her just as she was about to rest.
He thought to himself that he had indeed been too rash, disturbing her rest like this.
“I’m sorry, Miss Yun Dan. I didn’t know you were going to rest. I really disturbed you. I’m so sorry.”
Yun Dan quickly waved her hands to explain. “No, no, I was preparing to sleep, but I haven’t actually fallen asleep yet. Besides, you’re still concerned about my injuries so late at night – I’m the one who should feel embarrassed.”
Before she finished speaking, Yun Dan felt an extra hand around her waist.
She immediately pressed down on Xiao Yueqing’s hand and glared at him in the dim candlelight.
She mouthed to him: “Behave yourself!”
However, Xiao Yueqing softly muttered, “You really are considerate toward him.”
Fortunately, this hand was held down by her, so Yun Dan didn’t need to be too nervous.
She just kept staring at Dongfang Wuchen, afraid he might notice something.
At this moment, she could only comfort herself, thinking that Dongfang Wuchen seemed quite good at studying.
Being good at studying was good.
Maybe ancient people who read too much had poor eyesight.
“My injury is nothing at all. With the ointment applied, it’ll be fine in a couple of days. It just looks scary, but it’s actually not serious at all.”
Xiao Yueqing softly added, “That’s my ointment, of course it works well. Much better than anything from the Divine Physician Sect.”
Yun Dan thought that even at this point, he was still boasting about how good his ointment was.
This man really wasn’t ordinarily narcissistic.
But Dongfang Wuchen was still thinking about her injury.
“But I think your injury is quite serious. I’ve already investigated that this matter was because of my mother. I want to apologize to you here. My mother is indeed very extreme in some matters. If she troubles you again in the future, just don’t go, or have someone come find me. I’ll protect you.”
Yun Dan didn’t hear a single word.
Because Xiao Yueqing was tickling her.
This damned scoundrel, and he called himself a master – this was simply too much.
He really couldn’t wait to embarrass her.
But there was another man in the room right now.
She couldn’t speak too loudly.
She could only grab Xiao Yueqing’s hand and glare at him.
“Stop it!”
After Dongfang Wuchen had spoken for a long time and saw that Yun Dan didn’t respond, he curiously asked, “Miss Yun Dan? Miss Yun Dan?”
Only then did Yun Dan come back to her senses and apologize to Dongfang Wuchen.
“Sorry, I was thinking about something else just now. I appreciate your kind intentions, but if my affairs cause discord between you and your mother, I would really feel terrible about it.”
But after saying this, Yun Dan always felt something was inappropriate.
No matter how it sounded, it seemed like dialogue meant to sow discord?
Could it be that she was supposed to play the role of the vicious female supporting character?
Although, it seemed like one of the things Xiao Yueqing had asked her to do was to drive a wedge between Dongfang Wuchen and Mulan.
But Dongfang Wuchen didn’t think so.
“She and I have always been two different people. My mother’s thoughts and opinions do not represent my thoughts. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have had such a big conflict with her.
Speaking of which, you still remember that when she hit me on the spot because I spoke up for Xiao Yueqing, that incident represented how great the difference in thinking between her and me was.”
Xiao Yueqing really didn’t know about this matter.
All along, he thought he understood Dongfang Wuchen quite well.
But he never expected that he would actually speak up for him.
Even less did he expect that Mulan, who had always doted on her son, would actually hit him on the spot.
It seemed that Mingyue Manor was more interesting than he had thought.
Yun Dan had no idea how to respond.
As an outsider, she really didn’t know how to get involved in their mother-son problems.
But saying nothing definitely wouldn’t work either.
After thinking for a long time, Yun Dan finally replied, “Don’t overthink it. Just be yourself, just like I told you before – don’t casually change your own thoughts because of others. You haven’t done anything wrong.”
“Haha…”
Before she finished speaking, Yun Dan couldn’t help but laugh.
This laugh left Dongfang Wuchen very puzzled.
“Miss Yun Dan, why are you…”
Yun Dan viciously slapped Xiao Yueqing’s hand, then said through gritted teeth. “Hehe, I thought of something rather happy, so I couldn’t help but laugh out loud. It’s so late, Young Master Dongfang, you should go back and rest. It’s not good for you to be in my room in the middle of the night.”
It wasn’t that she deliberately wanted to send him away.
The truth was that Yun Dan could barely control Xiao Yueqing anymore.
This damned great demon lord was determined to embarrass her.
If Dongfang Wuchen stayed here too long, it would definitely be exposed.
She couldn’t gamble with her own life!
When Dongfang Wuchen was reminded like this, he also realized the impropriety.
He stood up somewhat awkwardly and said, “In the end, this is all my fault. I was too concerned about your injury and ignored that it’s already late at night.
I’ll go back first. If you have any discomfort, you can come find me, or go find Wuyou. He is, after all, a doctor. Having him look at your injury would be better.”
Only after Dongfang Wuchen finally left did Yun Dan breathe a sigh of relief.
She immediately lifted the blanket and hammered Xiao Yueqing’s shoulder several times.
“You great demon lord almost got me killed! You were really determined to embarrass me – you went too far!”
This time Yun Dan was truly angry.
Heaven knows she almost lost her life just now.
If they had been discovered together, reputation would be a small matter – her life was what truly mattered!
Xiao Yueqing had originally just wanted to play a joke with Yun Dan.
How could he have known there would be such a big reaction?
Since this matter was his fault, he let her hammer him.
If this were anyone else, he would have sent them flying with one palm strike long ago.
After Yun Dan hammered for a while, she found that her hands had no strength left, and only then did she stop.
“I hammered until my hands are tired. Fine, no next time – you’re not allowed to make such jokes again, or else I’ll take needles and prick you to death while you’re sleeping!”
After speaking, she even made a threatening gesture.
This actually made Xiao Yueqing laugh outright.
“Prick me to death? Are you sure, hmm?”
