Chapter 73 - 73: Can You Accept Me Marrying Another Woman?
How was this inferior?
As if to prove it to him, Bai Xianyu immediately pulled out the cork and was about to pour it on her hand.
Xie Xingyun grabbed her wrist. “Give it to me.”
He snatched the jade bottle from Bai Xianyu’s hand and turned around to bring the earthenware hot-water bottle, which had been placed at the side, to the girl.
After walking around outside, although Bai Xianyu’s hands were cold, she did not take it. “1 can apply the medicine myself.”
Xie Xingyun raised his eyebrows and said calmly, “You’re so clumsy. If you do it yourself, it will only make the wound swell even more.”
Bai Xianyu was already in a depressed mood. When she heard this, she said indignantly, “Who said I’m clumsy? If you hadn’t suddenly covered my mouth, 1 wouldn’t have been in a hurry to run.”
Xie Xingyun looked down at her and asked casually, “Is this the reason why you fell on the flat ground?”
Bai Xianyu,”…”
“That’s because I’ve been in a carriage all day and it has been swaying all the way. My legs are already sore. Otherwise, 1 wouldn’t have fallen.”
Xie Xingyun’s gaze shifted to her legs. “Your legs hurt too?”
As he spoke, he raised his hand, wanting to pull up her dress to see if they were bruised.
Bai Xianyu hurriedly pressed down on the corner of her dress and pursed her lips. “Aren’t you afraid that when you get married in the future, I’ll tell your wife that you are usually frivolous with other girls?”
Xie Xingyun’s action was a subconscious reaction.
In his previous life, they had been husband and wife for seven years. He had seen every part of Bai Xianyu, so he did not have to avoid arousing the disapproval of others.
But her words made Xie Xingyun angry. “Marry a wife?”
Bai Xianyu said what she was thinking. Time and again, Xie Xingyun was becoming more and more unruly towards her.
“That’s right. I’m going to get married in the future, and you’re going to marry someone in the future. Isn’t Young Marquis afraid of being labeled as a playboy?”
Under the flickering candlelight, the man faced the girl on the bed with her head tilted up against the light.
Their shadows were intimately intertwined.
And the girl propped her arms behind her, her eyes were stubborn and angry.
If not for the fact that she had already exposed herself, he would probably…. be deceived by this girl who was so unfamiliar.
It turned out that a person could look so different when she disliked him.
When she liked him, she would blush whenever she spoke to him.
Now, he just wanted to check her injuries and apply medicine for her, and she was already so resistant to him.
Was he a man-eating beast?
Xie Xingyun covered his dark eyes. “If I marry another woman, won’t you be sad at all?”
“No.”
Bai Xianyu did not hesitate at all and even smiled. “I can’t be happier.”
“Is that so?”
Xie Xingyun looked up and said calmly, “If i marry another woman, hold her hands, kiss her, consummate the marriage with her, and have children, are you able to accept that?”
For some reason, when Bai Xianyu heard what he said, many intimate images of the two of them flashed through her mind.
But now, she had automatically blurred her own image. In the future, if Xie Xingyun were to take a wife, he would do whatever they had done before all over again.
But so what?
She said coldly, “Yes.”
A long time elapsed.
The man half squatted in front of her.
Bai Xianyu felt his furnace-like hands holding her ankle. He took off her stockings, and then a chill poured down over her wound. She could not help but shiver slightly.
A suffocating silence hovered between them.
She looked down and saw that Xie Xingyun’s eyes seemed to be a little dark and his lips were a little pale.
Just as she was hesitating if she should say something, Xie Xingyun’s voice sounded in the next second.
“But 1 can’t.” His voice was low and husky.
“I can’t accept you holding hands with another man, kissing, consummating the marriage, and bearing his children..”
