"If it's inconvenient for you, I'll do it." Xiao Yunci didn't give in and did it himself. It was really a luxury for him to dig out the plaster. He dug out a piece at a time. Although Wen Ning didn't know the value of the plaster, he understood that such a good thing that worked so quickly must be extremely rare.

The way he applies it, the whole bottle will be gone soon?

But even though he was digging the ointment in a domineering manner, his fingers moved very gently, and the gentle application actually made Wen Ning slowly relax.

The two of them were silent for a while. Wen Ning felt that the atmosphere was a bit stagnant, so she took the initiative to ask, "Is the injury on your arm healed?"

Xiao Yunci's eyelashes trembled, he glanced at her, and said slowly, "It's a minor injury, it's already healed."

Minor injury...

Wen Ning was a little shocked. His wound was so big and bloody, but it was just a minor injury, but it caused such a big fuss for her burn.

Seeing that he had no interest in this topic, Wen Ning had no choice but to give up and wanted to change the subject.

"Your Highness, I have an unwelcome request." Wen Ning said softly.

"Speak." Xiao Yunci glanced at her indifferently, seeming a little surprised. After all, Wen Ning had never mentioned any requests to him so far, as if whatever he arranged was fine as long as she could stay alive.

"When I was in the palace before, there was a maid who treated me very well. She didn't seem to want to work in the palace..."

"Okay." Xiao Yunci interrupted her before she could finish.

Wen Ning opened her mouth, but the words she was about to say were cut off, and she felt a little helpless for a moment.

Xiao Yunci then applied the ointment on her wound, looking serious with his eyes lowered, as if he was treating some fatal wound. However, the atmosphere became even more awkward, making Wen Ning feel a little uneasy.

She thought about it, but didn't know what to say, so she thought about what happened when she met Qi Weiming today.

"Today Zhao Yan..." Wen Ning just opened her mouth, but Xiao Yunci closed the porcelain bottle and interrupted her, "Alright?"

"Thank you, Your Highness." Wen Ning quickly stood up to thank him, but Xiao Yunci said in a deep voice, "It was my fault. I didn't expect such an accident to happen. There is nothing else to do today. Just take a rest. If there is anything, I will send Deng Wu to find you."

"If your hand hurts, ask someone to help you apply the medicine again. This medicine is quite effective and should heal after a few applications." Xiao Yunci looked at her deeply and said, "My father asked me to deal with the flood. I will not go back to my room to sleep today. You can just take a rest and don't have to wait for me."

"..." Wen Ning was a little uncomfortable after hearing him say so much in one breath. After a long while, she slowly bowed, "Yes, Your Highness."

"Yeah." Xiao Yunci's eyes slowly and gently stroked her hair, but his face was extremely calm as he turned around and left.

Watching his back disappear at the door, Wen Ning pursed her lips, and a few big words popped up in her mind... He was in a bad mood.

But why?

Wen Ning looked at the thick layer of ointment on her hands and felt puzzled. He didn't look like he was angry with her, so who was he angry with?

Could it be Zhao Yan?
