Morning Star

Chapter 230 Why are it stars and rabbits?

Now I can finally see how the broken porcelain piece got stuck in the skin.

Since the fragments were not taken out, not much blood was shed, but a trace of blood still flowed out from the sides, staining the clothes red.

Mo Xinglan frowned, holding her wrist with his right hand, and slowly approached the fragments with his left fingertips gathering a trace of spiritual energy. Just as he was about to touch the porcelain pieces, he looked up at her: "Does it hurt?"

The tears in her eyes froze for a moment, then she bit her lower lip and shook her head: "It doesn't hurt."

“…” He sneered, displeasure flashing in his eyes.

Then she pinched the fragment with her slender jade fingers and pulled it out with a little force.

"Hiss..." The pain came too suddenly, and she couldn't help but take a deep breath, but she quickly suppressed it. Her hands were shaking slightly.

Mo Xinglan only glanced at her lightly, and to prevent her from pulling her hand back due to the pain she couldn't bear, he gripped her wrist a little harder.

He picked up a medicine bottle, raised it to his lips, opened the cap with his teeth, and mercilessly sprinkled the powder on the wound.

Chujiu lowered her head, tears welling up in her eyes, but she refused to let them fall out. Her uninjured left hand rested on her knee, tightly grasping the hem of her skirt until her knuckles turned white.

"Does it hurt?" Mo Xinglan looked at her with a half-smile and spoke lightly.

She was silent for a moment, exhaled and shook her head gently: "...It doesn't hurt."

She would never cry out in pain even if she was beaten to death. Otherwise, how embarrassing would it be? How could she have the nerve to cry out in pain in front of him at this time?

He endured the pain and applied medicine to her without her ever crying out in pain, so how could she say it hurt? No, no, you can't cry out in pain.

Ah! But it really hurts! Be gentle, brother!

Mo Xinglan, you did this on purpose! Woo woo...

After hearing this, Mo Xinglan frowned and deliberately slowed down his movements.

After applying the medicine, I took out the gauze and wrapped it around her.

Chujiu felt that the whole process was long and painful. But she didn't dare to say anything. He was angry, so she could do whatever he wanted. She should be grateful that he could treat her wounds. What else could she ask for?

After the gauze was wrapped, he deliberately pulled it when tying the knot.

Chujiu trembled with pain.

He bit her lightly and sneered, "Why are you shaking if it doesn't hurt?"

“……”Chujiu bit his lower lip, buried his head and said nothing.

Does this guy have to make her scream in pain before he's satisfied? What's his fetish?

Seeing that she refused to admit it, he became even angrier and his chest ached.

He no longer had much patience, so he said coldly, "You can leave now."

Chujiu was stunned for a moment, then looked up at him and said pitifully, "Are you still going to kick me out?"

He just sneered: "Miss Chu, have you forgotten that this is my room? Do you think it's okay for you and I to be alone in the same room?"

The ninth day of the lunar month: "..."

Oh, he feels bad now.

Who was it that insisted on pulling her to sleep with him when they were in the main residence of the secret realm before?

Didn’t they slept together on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival? When she woke up the next day, she wanted to leave, but he wouldn’t let her.

He actually called her Miss Chu. Are we so distant now? Before, I only called her by her full name.

The more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt. She lowered her head pitifully and murmured, "Can't you just let me stay for one night? It's too late and I don't dare go out. I'm afraid of ghosts."

She didn't lie, she was really scared, and it took her a long time to mentally prepare herself before she mustered up the courage to walk from her room to his.

Everyone must be asleep by now. It was too quiet and dark outside, so she didn't dare to go out.

That day she was thirsty and went out to get some water.

Mo Xinglan snorted coldly, obviously not believing it.

Chujiu was afraid that he would throw her out, so she said quickly, "Don't worry, I'll sleep on the floor. You know I don't snore, grind my teeth, or sleepwalk when I sleep."

"But you were talking in your sleep," he said mercilessly.

The ninth day of the lunar month: "..."

Is it necessary to be so blunt? We all see each other every day, so it's not a good idea to be so blunt, right?

She pursed her lips and was silent for a moment. Suddenly her eyes lit up and she looked up at him.

She took out a bracelet and held it up to him.

The bracelet was made of twelve transparent spiritual beads with a hint of aqua blue fluid inside. This was the prize they won on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival. Afterwards, he asked her to string them together for him and gave them to her.

Every other psychic bead has a star made of white jade.

"!" His expression paused, staring blankly at the bracelet that was dangling in front of him in a provocative manner.

After a moment, he raised his hand to take it, but it was taken back before he could touch it.

He frowned and glared at her coldly with displeasure.

She held the bracelet like a treasure and said, "If you don't chase me away, I'll give it to you."

"..." He narrowed his eyes slightly, and his dark eyes flashed coldly under the candlelight.

Chujiu's heart trembled, and she slowly and spinelessly handed the bracelet to him, looking at him pitifully: "If you accept the bracelet, you can't chase me away."

"..." His hand reaching for the bracelet paused slightly, glanced at her, lowered his eyelashes and took it.

Seeing him accept the bracelet, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he skillfully went to his closet, took out a quilt, and spread it on the floor.

Mo Xinglan lowered his eyes and looked at the bracelet in his hand. He counted them carefully and then looked through them carefully.

Twelve spiritual beads, twelve stars made of white jade, each star has a rabbit head carved on it.

Each star and the bunny head on top have some minor imperfections, and it's obvious that they were made by a novice.

He gently rubbed a rabbit's head with the tip of his thumb, keeping his eyes fixed on it expressionlessly.

Why stars and rabbits?

"hiss……"

A cold inhalation drew his attention.

I saw the girl squatting on the ground next to a half-spread quilt, with a bitter face and gently covering her right forearm.

He frowned and said softly, "Come up."

"Ah?" She didn't react for a moment.

Seeing that he looked unhappy, I finally understood what he meant and quickly tidied up the quilt.

However, he had just closed one corner when he said unhappily, "I'll let you come up, or get out."

"Oh." She responded, quickly stopped what she was doing, got up, walked to the bed, quickly took off her headband and hair accessories, took off her coat and shoes, and climbed onto the bed swiftly.

He then used all four legs to crawl to the inside of the bed, opened the quilt and quickly crawled in, leaving his little head outside.

From the moment she put down the quilt and stood up, to the moment she lifted the quilt and crawled in, the entire action was smooth and quick.

Mo Xinglan: “…”

Her series of swift movements stunned Mo Xinglan.

So quickly? He seriously suspected that she had planned this.

"Aren't you going to sleep?" Chujiu looked at him and blinked twice.

He had just cried, so his eyes and face were a little red, and he looked like a little rabbit that had been wronged.

He stared at her with his dark eyes for a long while, then took a pill and slowly lay down on the bed.

Seeing him lying down, Chujiu propped himself up slightly, covered him with the quilt, and then lay down again.
