Chapter 1443: Chapter 1440: You Misunderstood

He clenched his fists tightly.

"No, Brother Qiao Muyun, you’ve misunderstood. Brother Ya Xuan is giving me a facial treatment..." Zi Ruoxi’s tone was urgent. Her big eyes were bright and occasionally flashed with panic.

Upon hearing this explanation, Qiao Muyun was undoubtedly incensed. His dark green eyes cast a cold wave.

"Zi Ruoxi—" Uncontainable anger surged skyward, his heart burning with pain, unable to hold back his resentment, wave after wave of blame, "Facial treatment?! Are you confused or bewitched by him? Do you really think kissing others casually could ease your pain? How ridiculous!" Qiao Muyun rebuked, then couldn’t help but sneer, "Where are your morals? Your bottom line? Zi Ruoxi, why have you become like this? Has cosmetic surgery messed up your brain too? How can you believe such absurd nonsense!"

The barrage of blaming words left Zi Ruoxi red-faced and ashamed. She never imagined the Brother Qiao Muyun she always respected so much would criticize her so mercilessly, with such sharp and bitter words. How could he do this, without knowing the whole story, just losing his temper...

At this moment, Li Yaxuan covered his abdomen and stood up shakily, his handsome face shadowed with gloom. Looking at Qiao Muyun’s angry face, standing in his position and thinking, it was hard not to be angry.

"Qiao Muyun, in our medical practice, there indeed exists a method to relieve facial pain by fully stimulating the oral meridians and increasing the movement of the salivary glands, which also helps the repair of her parotid nerve. I am a doctor, more professional in this aspect. I won’t harm Zi Ruoxi... Besides... I have her consent..." Li Yaxuan explained, suddenly feeling it was very difficult. Damn it, talking to someone without a sense of trust is exhausting. Damn! She’s not even his girlfriend, and yet he’s so jealous. If she were, wouldn’t he skin me alive? Han Si!

Qiao Muyun listened, feeling depressed. When he looked at Zi Ruoxi, her face was shy and moist, and she nodded slightly. What the hell?! But, at this moment, even if this method is real, as he claims, effective, he cannot accept it. It’s like someone poisoned and the only cure is selling oneself, something only seen on TV...

Now, laughably, there are certain similarities. If this kind of kissing can be considered normal, it’s hard to imagine if this man asks for more excessive requests, would she accept them too? Damn! No, absolutely not!

Kissing between a man and a woman implies a very intimate and close relationship, even if they aren’t that kind of boyfriend and girlfriend, it’s still unacceptable! Kissing for a long time can stimulate various hormones in the body, even change thoughts... Perhaps, he’s afraid, afraid that over time, Zi Ruoxi will fall in love with this feeling, and then it would be a disaster...

Cundu Gully, Qiao Muyun’s face alternated between dark and pale, as if locked in a fierce inner struggle.

"Regardless of whether this method is real or not, I cannot accept it." Qiao Muyun said straightforwardly, then turned his cold gaze to the girl beside him, warning, "Zi Ruoxi, without my permission, you can’t let him kiss you, do you hear me?" Then, seeing her awkward and flushed expression, he held back his heartache, disregarding her feelings, and said decisively, "Zi Ruoxi... remember... this is my bottom line!"

Zi Ruoxi lowered her head. After a silent pause, she bravely looked at Qiao Muyun again.

"I’m sorry, Brother Qiao Muyun, I won’t do it again." Zi Ruoxi’s tone was light but determined, her big eyes filled with a thin mist of longing and grievance. No matter how much it hurts in the future, she would swallow it down.

"...As long as you understand." Qiao Muyun responded slowly, seeing her like this made his heart ache. But, he had no choice. Didn’t she know how much he loved her?! How could he tolerate another man touching her?

If he was hesitant before, it was because of Brother Haotian, but now that doesn’t exist. Ever since escaping that nightmare-like paradise with her, he’s become more certain of his feelings for her. He loves her! He wants to protect her until she agrees with him, but for now, this approach is wrong, he must stop it! Otherwise, he’s afraid he will go crazy! He will lose control...

Zi Ruoxi, don’t blame me! I’m doing this for your own good!

Li Yaxuan watched how conflicted they were, and couldn’t help being affected too, feeling depressed.

...

For a long time, the air outside the room was silent, Xiao Shan also came forward. She had heard some of the conversation. Her delicate face looked sympathetically at Zi Ruoxi, gently hooking her finger.

"Sister Zi Ruoxi, don’t be sad. Maybe after a while, your face will stop hurting," Xiao Shan replied.

"..." Zi Ruoxi said nothing, a bittersweet smile appeared on her cheeks.

Qiao Muyun couldn’t bear it, and his pity for her grew stronger. He looked over at Li Yaxuan.

"Besides this method, is there no other way?" Qiao Muyun asked, a faint hope in his eyes.

A word as if waking a dreamer.

Li Yaxuan looked at Qiao Muyun, his eyes darkening, suddenly remembering something. Perhaps, that method could save her too. But, this method was also quite roguish... Seeing such a gentle girl like Zi Ruoxi, he wondered if she would adapt...

Thinking of this, his innocent face couldn’t help but show a sly glow.

"There is." He said decisively in one word.

Zi Ruoxi was momentarily stunned, while Xiao Shan’s face also lit up with joy.

"What method?" Qiao Muyun continued to ask, his eyes fixed on the other man, wondering if this guy was up to another unsavory plan!

Li Yaxuan adjusted his clothes, his abdomen feeling a bit better now, Qiao Muyun, oh Qiao Muyun, hitting without mercy! To think I’m still so invested in you, oh my.

"Brother Ya Xuan, quickly tell us!" Xiao Shan couldn’t help but interject. Watching his slow pace felt like holding a kangaroo inside that could jump out at any moment.

Li Yaxuan squinted at her, chuckling mischievously.

"Why so anxious, the Emperor is not in a hurry but the eunuch is!" Li Yaxuan teased Xiao Shan relentlessly.

Making Xiao Shan’s little face instantly flush red with embarrassment. And at this moment, Qiao Muyun also pulled down his face, damn bastard, selling suspense at this time.

Just about to speak up, but the other person approached him.
