After the doctor bandaged Si Junyan, he cautioned, "Be mindful of your diet. Remember, new wounds compounded by old ones, repeatedly injuring your body, is not good for you. You should be more careful."
"Nonsense!"
Did he want to be injured?
Si Junyan's temper flared, but Jiang Qimeng smoothed things over and had the doctor leave.
"Is there anywhere else that's uncomfortable?" Jiang Qimeng sighed, her face etched with heartache.
"Jian Xi, that vixen! If it weren't for her, you wouldn't be in such a sorry state." She sowed discord, adding, "If only she could disappear completely."
Disappear completely? Si Junyan furrowed his brow, lost in thought.
Seeing his expression, Jiang Qimeng quickly apologized. "I was so angry I said such vicious things, Junyan. I'm sorry."
"Sister Meng, why are you apologizing? Don't I know you mean well for me? Jian Xi should have died long ago!"
Murderous intent surged in Si Junyan's heart.
Jiang Qimeng saw this, and her lips curled into a smile.
