Chapter 46 Tolerate (1)
Chen Hui picked up the cotton cloth and rubbed it on Li Youde’s arm. While feeling the muscles underneath tighten, he really bit her shoulder. He was not bluffing with her.
The feeling of the teeth biting the flesh through the clothes was still clear. The sharp pain transmitted from Chen Hui’s shoulder to her cranial nerves and her nerves twitched.
This exasperating eunuch’s Chinese horoscope must be dog! It must be!
Chen Hui bore with the pain and didn’t increase her strength as a retaliation. Instead, she decreased her strength a bit and her speed increased a little. What about being bitten? If he couldn’t bite her to death, then she won!
When Chen Hui finally cleaned Li Youde’s injury, she was sweating all over. Her hair was soaked in sweat and stuck to her forehead. To fight the pain, her whole body fell into Li Youde’s arms. She didn’t speak until it was over, but her voice was hoarse, “…Lord, it is done. Can you let me go now?”
She felt that the piece of flesh at her shoulder may be bleeding like an injection. Really too miserable. Good people aren’t rewarded. A dog biting Lü Dongbin. He didn’t acknowledge a person’s good intentions!

Also, her waist. He gripped it so tight, that her waist was about to break. She could even imagine the bruise on her waist!
Li Youde slowly loosened Chen Hui and Chen Hui slid off his knees after losing support.
Li Youde’s condition was not much better than Chen Hui’s. He passed the pain he suffered to Chen Hui through his mouth, but his pain didn’t disappear at all. The torment made cold sweat appear and his face was as pale as paper.
Chen Hui sat on the ground for a while. She used the support of the ground and got up. She replaced Li Youde’s old cotton bandage, looked at his face and suggested, “Lord, why don’t you take the drug next time? It won’t hurt if you are asleep.”
Li Youde was a bit moved. This kind of pain was beyond his endurance level, but if he had to take the drug to pass out every time the injury was cleaned, what would other people think of him? That definitely won’t do!
Li Youde laughed and said, “I think today’s method is not bad.”
Chen Hui didn’t dare to say anything but scolded him in her heart for talking rubbish. He looked like he had died once. What not bad? Even she seemed to have died once with him, okay?!
Before Chen Hui could think of a way out, someone outside the door said, “Lord, Lady Jiang is here.”
Chen Hui was slightly startled and subconsciously looked at Li Youde. Who knew that he also looked over? Two pairs of eyes intersected for an instant and then moved away.
Chen Hui said, “Lord, then this Lady Chen will return first.”
Li Youde gave an ‘mm’ sound.
Chen Hui was too lazy to clean up the things. When she opened the door, she found that Jiang Bihan was already in the yard.
When the door opened, Jiang Bihan looked over with her pair of beautiful eyes and was slightly surprised when she saw Chen Hui. Then, she noticed that Chen Hui’s hair seemed to be wet and she looked tired. Moreover, her clothes were crumpled.
Chen Hui said, “Lady Jiang, lord is inside.
She smiled at Jiang Bihan and walked to her room with pain on her shoulders. From Jiang Behan’s point of view, her movements were slightly unnatural as if she was enduring some pain.
Jiang Bihan blushed slightly. She hurriedly turned her gaze away and walked to the main room accompanied by Qingshu. When she saw that Li Youde was also sweating with a tired face and messy clothes, she looked away. There seems to be an aura of intoxication in the air which made her a bit uncomfortable.
Li Youde originally had his head down and was looking at his hand. He raised his head when he heard someone come in. He shook his head slightly as if trying to disperse the smell lingering around the nose. When he was biting Chen Hui’s shoulder, he didn’t let the saliva out. He bit tightly and was only able to breathe through his nose. The two were very close to each other. Some distinct smell entered his nose. It couldn’t be considered a fragrance. It was very faint but very pleasing.
Also, her waist really couldn’t hold a grip.
Jiang Bihan learned that something happened to Lord Li in the morning and hesitated a long time before rushing to visit. She didn’t expect to encounter such a scene as soon as she arrived. She remembered that Lady Chen had said before that Lord Li only let her live in Chrysanthemum Yard because he thought she was funny. Lady Chen also feigned civility and was with fear and trepidation like her. But why didn’t Lady Chen have any trace of unwillingness when she saw her just now?
Jiang Bihan pursed her lips and her eyes fell on Li Youde’s chin. She said gently, “I heard that lord is injured. Bihan was worried and came to visit.”
Li Youde came out of the daze, squeezed out a smile and said, “Lady Jiang, don’t worry. My injury is not serious.” The pain just now exhausted him and he just wanted to go back in bed and lie down now.
Jiang Bihan keenly sensed Li Youde’s perfunctory and inattentiveness. This has never happened before. As long he saw her, his attention had always been on her.
The anxiety and panic in Jiang Bihan’s heart spread little by little, but she couldn’t express anything. She could only forcefully smile and say, “Then…lord rest more. Bihan won’t bother lord’s rest.”
Li Youde also didn’t urge her to stay and only nodded, “Ah Da, send Lady Jiang.”
Jiang Bihan nodded slightly, got up and went out. As she passed the side room, she turned her head slightly. Naturally, she couldn’t see Chen Hui inside. She lowered her head again. Her slender fingers stirred in front of her and the knuckles even turned white.
