I'm competing with the male lead for a woman[GL]

Chapter 13: Clean Up

Upon thinking about it, Xiao Jin couldn't help but furrow her brows. How could she have such an absurd idea? After all, who would want to be in a CP with Chu Shao? Didn't they fear for their lives?

As it was already getting late, Su Tan lit a lamp inside the room while bandaging Chu Shao's wounds.

The candlelight was dim, reflecting on Chu Shao's white robe and her wrist, enveloping her in a soft, warm yellow light.

Xiao Jin focused on Chu Shao's arm, wondering how that slender arm could hold a sword and kill so many people in an instant.

Chu Shao noticed Xiao Jin looking at her and raised her head slightly, meeting Xiao Jin's gaze.

The sensation of the ointment on her wounds was cool and painful, but Chu Shao's lips curved into a smile, feeling somewhat pleased.

Applying ointment to fresh wounds was extremely painful, but this nerve-stimulating pain could help her remember the moment.

Good, she now had something to pass the time. When she got bored, she could reminisce about the broken heart grass and the pain that this sword brought her.

Thinking this way, Chu Shao felt happy. So she looked at Xiao Jin and smiled.

Seeing Chu Shao's gentle smile, coupled with the memory of her ruthlessness when killing, Xiao Jin found it hard to imagine how someone could perfectly combine innocence and cruelty.

Moreover, these two completely opposite characteristics coexisted in Chu Shao, and Xiao Jin felt that it was only natural, as if there was nothing strange about it.

It had to be said that Chu Shao really looked like a person with many secrets.

Xiao Jin furrowed her brows, trying to recall where she went wrong. Unexpectedly, Chu Shao walked up to her after finishing applying the ointment.

Looking up at Chu Shao, she saw that tear mole that was as red as blood. Then, she was surprised to see that Chu Shao was holding white gauze and ointment in her hands.

"Your highness, your wounds have not been treated yet. Let this princess apply ointment for you."

Looking at Chu Shao's smile, Xiao Jin felt that she seemed quite eager.

When the black-clothed person slashed at her, they didn't actually use all their strength. As a result, the wound on her arm was not very deep, and it seemed unnecessary to bandage it.

Xiao Jin had originally intended to refuse, but unexpectedly, as she looked past Chu Shao, she suddenly caught a glimpse of Su Tan's complex gaze.

The other person's eyes were unfriendly, and seemed to contain a warning.

Xiao Jin suddenly felt amused. Did the female lead think she had put some kind of curse on Chu Shao? Sorry, the female lead was just naturally off, and it wasn't her fault.

So Xiao Jin nodded her head and even smiled slightly, "Thank you, princess."

Of course, she was probably smiling at Su Tan.

Su Tan saw the smile on Xiao Jin's face and coldly looked away, turning to feed the white parrot in the cage.

In her heart, she thought that ever since the incident in the palace, she had resigned from her position as imperial physician. Over the years, she had traveled to four countries, and it was rumored that the King of Yan in Northern Qi was cruel and brutal. Now, it seemed that it wasn't entirely true.

On the other hand, Chu Shao gently lifted Xiao Jin's sleeve and stared at the bloody wound. She was a little regretful because the assassin hadn't cut very deep, and it didn't seem to need much medication.
