The palace maid Little Cui, upon hearing the Princess confess her secret fondness for Marquis Zi Qing, quickly waved her hands, saying, "No, Princess, it's not like that!"
"Then why did you say it was no good? And why such a panicked, flustered look on your face?" Jin Mo asked.
"That's because I was nervous for your sake, Princess!" Little Cui explained in haste, "That man won the battle against Marquis Zi Qing. But he, his face has been disfigured!"
When it came to the disfigurement, Little Cui repeated, "He's been disfigured! His face, which was once quite handsome, is now covered in bloody wounds!"
Hearing Little Cui mention his disfigurement, a sense of relief washed over Jin Mo. Disfigurement was a trifle matter for him; hadn't he been disfigured in the Demon Beast Mountain Forest before? At that time, she had felt pity for him, but who would have thought that, in no time at all, those scars had healed, and his face actually looked even better after recovery.
