Satire?

Jiang Ruining doesn't have that.

Children who grow up under the red flag are taught from a young age to respect every hero who defends their country.

On the battlefield, swords and spears have no eyes. Being able to avoid serious injury is a sign of incredible strength!

If she were to go up there, she might not even be able to lift a knife; she'd only be a walking death sentence.

Although he is the villain, his villainy is not entirely without reason, after all, the throne originally belonged to him.

He shook his head vigorously, then smiled obsequiously, flattering, "Your Highness has wronged me! Without your bloody battles on the front lines, how could we, the people in the rear, enjoy such peaceful lives? You're the one who shouldn't be mocking! I was merely praising Your Highness's extraordinary abilities!"

She raised her hand and pushed the hairpin up.

"Can you let it go now?"

Xiao Che's eyes held a nonchalant smile, which tugged at the small red mole at the corner of his eye, making him breathtakingly beautiful: "The uneducated Miss Jiang actually knows these obscure subjects?"

Jiang Ruining's pupils dilated slightly: "..."

Oops!

I completely forgot about that.

Now that's good. Given this fiend's suspicious nature, he'll definitely want to know if she's in cahoots with the assassin!

But she really ran out of ideas to explain.

My temper flared up.

"If I truly wanted to harm you, I would have had countless opportunities since yesterday evening. I may be ignorant and incompetent, but that doesn't mean I'm deaf!"

"Sitting in teahouses, restaurants, and theaters, or strolling casually on the street, you can meet all sorts of people and absorb all sorts of strange and obscure knowledge—it's perfectly normal."

"Sometimes, officials investigating cases in the government office find the key to solving a case based on a casual remark made by an insignificant passerby! I'm so smart, of course I can remember what I hear!"

Jiang Ruining is quick-witted.

Although what you hear by chance is not as credible as substantial proof, it is still better than what you see in a book but can't say which book is better.

At that time, this perverted fiend will definitely have even deeper suspicions about her.

She didn't want to be monitored 24/7!

"Given yesterday's situation, we couldn't call a doctor, and I don't know any medicine, so I could only try this method. I couldn't just stand by and watch you die! The method worked, and now you're using that as a reason to doubt me—isn't that ridiculous!"

"If you're so afraid of being tricked, then don't ask anyone for help!"

"You repay kindness with enmity, you're wicked!"

"How wicked!"

She sat in the bright light that streamed in after getting up. Although she looked sickly, she forced a weak but indignant air as she spoke with righteous indignation. Her cheeks were slightly puffed out, and her eyes were blazing with anger. She was truly... full of life!

Xiao Che didn't speak, his unfathomable eyes simply staring at her.

Jiang Ruining's little temper flared up in vain.

It felt like punching cotton, which made me even angrier.

"Stab! Stab! Stab me all you want, so the prince won't be so paranoid all the time, it's exhausting!" He closed his eyes and bravely faced his death. "After I die, I'll haunt you every night, making you suffer from sleep paralysis! You've betrayed your savior, your conscience has been eaten by dogs!"

Xiao Che watched as her pale lips trembled, yet she pretended to be indifferent to life and death. A wicked smile curled at the corners of his mouth: "Alright! In all my years, I've never experienced being pinned down in bed by a beautiful ghost!"

He applied even more pressure with his hand.

The sharp tip of the hairpin could pierce her delicate skin and break through her blood vessels at any moment!

A lazy, chuckling voice whispered in her ear, "I, for one, have never known what a conscience is!"

Jiang Ruining is numb.

This fiend is truly cold-blooded and heartless!

She values ​​her life and definitely doesn't want to die!

The initial generosity of offering her neck was long gone. She grabbed his wrists with both hands and tilted her head back forcefully: "No, no, no! Your Highness is a peerless hero, with the well-being of all people in your heart and a boundless conscience. How could you repay kindness with enmity!"

"We're not joking anymore, please don't hold a grudge against a woman as incompetent as me, ha, ha..."

Xiao Che raised an eyebrow with a hint of mischief, admiring her rapidly changing expressions.

half an hour.

He uttered two words.

"Get down!"

"Okay! I'm coming down right now!" Jiang Ruining was flustered and realized that one of her legs was still draped over his two long and straight legs. She was utterly horrified!

It's dying.

She actually used the evil spirit as a pillow and slept with it all night!

I was so scared I felt a little dizzy.

I wanted to get away from him, but then I felt a familiar tugging on my shoulder.

I looked down.

Her wrist was still being gripped tightly in his palm.

Otherwise, why couldn't she escape backwards just now, and why did she feel like she couldn't find her own arm?

"..."

My fingers are sore from gripping them so tightly!

"It's numb. If you keep squeezing it, it'll break. For the sake of these hands that stitched up your wound and applied a salt pack to stop the bleeding, please, Your Highness, spare its precious hands!"

Xiao Che: "..."

Release your grip.

On her fair and slender wrist, a deep red mark from gripping appeared.

A breathtaking image suddenly flashed into her mind: his well-defined hands gripping hers, pressing them firmly above her head. She struggled, breaking free of his hold, then slipped her fingers through his, their hands clasped tightly together, their breaths mingling…

A warm touch covered his forehead.

Jiang Ruining touched his cool forehead.

surprise.

The fever has subsided!

In modern society, with such a severe injury, one would probably need to be on an IV drip for two days to recover.

He only drank the herbal medicine once, and his fever subsided?

This physique is truly unmatched!

That's so enviable.

He touched his forehead again.

It's still a bit warm.

I feel much better now. I estimate that if I take another dose of medicine and avoid wind and overexertion for another day, I'll be fully recovered.

Xiao Che was startled, quickly snapping back to reality: "Keep your paws to yourself!"

Jiang Ruining clutched her poor, numb hand, said "Oh," and silently cursed him in her heart as "heartless" and then "pervert."

"Let me check if your fever has gone down, you look so fierce..."

Xiao Che was weak, but he stubbornly insisted, "I'm perfectly fine!"

Jiang Ruining pursed his lips, as if it were all his own achievement, and couldn't help but retort: ​​"Indeed, the quality of the antipyretics in the Jiang family is guaranteed, and my care is also indispensable."

Xiao Che glanced at her and said, "You certainly know how to take credit."

"How could that be!" Jiang Ruining smiled obsequiously, "Your Highness's permission for me to atone for my mistakes is already the greatest reward you can give me!"

Xiao Che scoffed, "Talking to yourself!"

Jiang Ruining said dramatically, "Last night, I almost got caught by the patrol battalion while protecting the Prince!" Her gaze fixed on him intently, "If this isn't a great achievement, what are those officials who pledged allegiance to the Prince for? Do they just enjoy working for free?"

Xiao Che's narrowed phoenix eyes flashed with danger: "You schemed against me, but I didn't kill you; it's only because I'm kind-hearted!"

Jiang Ruining muttered, "They're clearly trying to win over my dad! They've already said I didn't administer the aphrodisiac, so why can't they understand what I'm saying?"

Xiao Che had excellent hearing and heard clearly. He leaned closer to her and asked, "Wasn't it you who stuffed muscle relaxant into the prince's mouth?"

A sense of oppression washed over Jiang Ruining, who shuddered: "...!!!"

Oh dear~ I forgot about muscle relaxant powder!

He thought to himself: I didn't put the muscle relaxant in your mouth, I clearly put it down your throat!

But she dared not say those words aloud.

Dry laugh.

She tugged at his loose undergarment, giving it a gentle shake: "I only wanted to escape, I didn't have the slightest thought of harming Your Highness! I swear! For the sake of me stitching up Your Highness's wounds and taking care of you all night, let's let bygones be bygones, okay?"

Xiao Che neither said yes nor no.

She leaned back slightly, resting against the soft pillows, and lazily watched her.

Jiang Ruining felt a chill run down her spine from being stared at.

She turned her face away timidly.

His gaze swept over the medicine bottle on the side table.

Grab him and stuff him into his arms.

"It's time to change the medication. You're busy, I'm a little dizzy, I'll go take my medicine first!"

Look how obedient she is!

Keep your claws under control and never meddle in other people's business.

"What's the rush?" Xiao Che's slender fingers deftly twirled the hairpin, its sharp tip gleaming in the light.

Then, he waved to her.

Jiang Ruining suddenly felt a chill on her neck and immediately decided not to argue with the pervert. She coughed lightly and said, "How foolish I was! The prince is injured; how could I let a weak patient worry about such trivial matters!"

"I'll take care of it! Your Highness, please just sit down. It's my honor to serve you!"

Xiao Che chuckled lightly, "Miss Jiang's sycophantic manner is comparable to that of those two idiots in the Master's mansion!"
