Chapter 799: He Forbids Other Women from Touching Him
“Who is she? Why is she so domineering!” Su Yingxue exclaimed, stomping her feet in frustration.
“She is my wife,” Chu Yifeng responded.
Su Yingxue was shocked by his response.
Su Yingxue widened her eyes in astonishment. She was momentarily speechless. “I… I didn’t so domineering?
“I promised her that, apart from her, I would never have any contact with another woman in this world,” Chu Yifeng explained.
Despite Chu Yihan’s evident coughing and unsteady steps, he adamantly refused Su Yingxue’s assistance.
Gritting her teeth, Su Yingxue felt a pang of bitterness. “Do you care so much about what I say…”
It was just a jest!
It was because Ye Zhenzhen had coveted him that she had made that declaration, forbidding any woman from approaching her!
But even in her absence today, he rejected even a simple act of support.
Su Yingxue stealthily wiped away the tears in her eyes and approached him. She adopted a voice he had never heard before. “It was merely a jest. Why take it so seriously? Princess Rong Sheng, who attends to you, is also a woman. Doesn’t she touch you?”
How could she not touch him when she needed to take his pulse, examine him, and administer medicine?
Chu Yihan shook his head. “She knows how to diagnose the pulse using the thread.”
Su Yingxue gasped. “What about administering medicine? You are her patient, and your status is so noble. Do you intend to allow someone else to apply medicine to you?”
“No need. Pavilion Master is here,” Chu Yihan replied. He was still as cold as ever, his demeanor as placid as a deep well.
Su Yingxue felt a stifling sensation in her chest.
She desperately wanted to blurt out, “Your Highness, can’t you be less rigid!”
What difference did it make whether the doctor was male or female?
And what distinction was there between male and female assistants?
“You, leave,” Chu Yihan ordered. His gaze fixed on the dining table, his tone unfriendly towards Su Yingxue.
Su Yingxue recoiled. She wasn’t ready to depart yet!
She wanted to observe Chu Yihan a little longer.
“I’m here to serve Your Highness’s meal. I’ll leave after Your Highness finishes dinner,” she stated, attempting to approach Chu Yihan to attend to him.
However, Chu Yihan’s icy glare forced her to retreat.
Su Yingxue’s hands trembled, and she stepped back two paces.
She had assumed that with her altered appearance and voice, Chu Yihan wouldn’t recognize her, hence her lack of restraint.
But Chu Yihan scrutinized her features. The sense of grievance in her eyes stirred something within him.
His pallid lips moved. “You are…”
Why did she resemble Su Yingxue so much when she appeared aggrieved?
When he had visited the Silver Moon Pavilion, he had found it reduced to ashes, with only remnants of Phoenix Satin and traces of her blood remaining.
Wu Dao openly told him during the battle that Su Yingxue was dead!
He suffered a great shock, which led to his defeat as it is now.
But now, the enigmatic woman in the Silver Moon Pavilion was evoking an inexplicable urge within him.
He instinctively rose to his feet, feeling a tad dizzy. He steadied himself against the table, but Su Yingxue, seeing him on the verge of fainting, instinctively reached out to support him.
“How dare you touch my brother! Have you grown tired of living?” A voice interjected, positioning a hand between Chu Yihan and Su Yingxue, causing her to tremble involuntarily.
Recalling Rong Sheng’s instructions, Su Yingxue hastily withdrew her hand. “PavilionMaster, spare me!”
She fled in haste, leaving Chu Yifeng to deal with the aftermath.
Chu Yifeng watched Su Yingxue’s departure, his lips curling into a cold smile.
Ha!
She ran off quite swiftly!
“Who was that serving girl just now? I want to see her,” Chu Yihan wanted to chase after her, but Chu Yifeng discreetly held him back.
“Just a female slave, my Silver Moon Pavilion has thousands of them. If you want, I’ll send you a batch tonight.”
