Chapter 368 Tea Soaked Clothes



Chapter 368 Tea Soaked Clothes

Even with such a sickly appearance, Xiao Yihuo still had the words "not pleasing to the eye" written on his face when he asked the question. There was also some disgust in his tone, and a hint of suppressed laughter.

Lin Lezhi's whole body was stuffed with things that made him look very bloated. He had a piece of drawstring cloth wrapped around his head and a handkerchief covering his mouth and nose. Only his eyes, which were wide open due to panic, were exposed. He was holding a wooden barrel in his hand.

He looked quite funny and strange, and with his panicked expression, he looked like a suspicious person.

However, after hearing what Xiao Yihuo said, his wide-open eyes immediately drooped, revealing a sense of resentment and shame.

“Isn’t this all…”

It’s all Guan Ziheng’s fault. He insisted that it was too dangerous for him to go out without covering up his appearance, and he had to make himself so that others couldn’t see his true appearance.

In just a few seconds, it became like this.

This was not enough, so he borrowed a wooden barrel from the waiter before he was finally allowed to go out.

After finishing the work, he still had an expression of admiring his own masterpiece. Although he said it was admiration, his eyes, like Xiao Yihuo's, were filled with an uncontrollable smile.

Lin Lezhi suspected that he was taking the opportunity to play a trick on him.

but.

To go up to the second floor to Qingchuan's room, one must pass through the lobby of the inn. Although he looks a bit funny, no one would think that this bloated person who looks like he is going to the room to deal with the slop is Jiang Lian'an.

But being asked by Xiao Yihuo with such disgust and a hint of ridicule made him feel inexplicably deflated. Then he thought, why should he explain to Xiao Yihuo?

He was a little unhappy and couldn't help but retort: ​​"No matter what I do, it's better than someone wearing women's clothes."

The moment he said it, Lin Lezhi's heart skipped a beat.

broken.

The mouth is faster than the brain.

Words spoken are like water released, which cannot be taken back. Lin Lezhi looked at Xiao Yihuo with a little trepidation, and wondered if his expression at the moment was gloomy.

After all, no matter how unpopular he is, he is still a prince, and he certainly cannot tolerate others humiliating him.

But when his eyes fell on Xiao Yihuo's face, Lin Lezhi was stunned.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Yihuo didn't seem to care at all, with the corner of his mouth slightly raised. He turned sideways to make way and said, "Come in first and we'll talk."

Since others gave him a way out, Lin Lezhi naturally had to follow suit.

As soon as you enter the room.

Lin Lezhi leaned the wooden barrel against the door and untied the cloth on his head and pulled it off.

Finally able to breathe a sigh of relief, Lin Lezhi felt a lot more relaxed. As he walked into the house, he pulled out the clothes stuffed in his underwear one by one, just like a hamster vomiting food.

He originally wanted to pull it out and throw it on the ground, but considering Xiao Yihuo's level of mysophobia, he would not be able to stand it, so he restrained his sloppy behavior, withdrew his hand that was about to throw it around, held it in his arms, and then piled it all on the table.

Too many messy clothes piled up like a small mountain.

When the clothes were taken out from inside, the outer clothes became loose. While untying the belt and tightening it again, Lin Lezhi pretended to ask casually.

"Aren't you in Qingchuan's room? When did you move back?"

"Come back when you wake up."

Xiao Yihuo looked at the pile of clothes and sat down at the table. Taking advantage of the little space left, he poured two cups of tea and pushed one of them towards Lin Lezhi. His eyes showed a hint of inquiry. He took a sip of the hot tea in his hand and said, "So, you are here to see Qingchuan?"

Xiao Yihuo had to be said to be surprisingly perceptive in some aspects. He almost choked on the tea before he even picked it up to drink.

but.

Since Lin Lezhi chose to ask this question, he had already prepared a response in his mind. He picked up the teacup, took a sip, and slowly said the words he had prepared.

"You haven't fully recovered yet, and I was afraid of disturbing you, so I thought of looking for Qingchuan to ask about your situation first. I didn't expect that you had already changed back."

Listen and.

Xiao Yihuo's hand holding the teacup was slightly startled, and his eyes became a little frozen. Only the tea in the cup was shaking gently due to the previous shaking.

Lin Lezhi felt somewhat guilty, and Xiao Yihuo's mood changes were not very obvious, so he did not notice.

In order to ease his own embarrassment, Lin Lezhi continued: "I heard from Ziheng that Yun He has been guarding you the whole time. Where is he?"

After a moment of hesitation, Xiao Yihuo came back to his senses. He took another sip of the tea in his cup and said truthfully, "He said that the antidote they're developing is still lacking a few herbs, so he accompanied Qingchuan to the pharmacy to ask."

"So..." What Xiao Yihuo said was also what he was worried about. He cast his eyes slightly towards Xiao Yihuo, "After you wake up...how do you feel?"

Xiao Yihuo didn't even raise his eyelids, and just said lightly: "It's okay."

Just when Lin Lezhi thought Xiao Yihuo was blaming him for telling Qingchuan about his poisoning and was unwilling to discuss the matter with him, Xiao Yihuo broke the silence again, and said with a hint of concern in his tone: "I heard from Qingchuan that you slept for two days in a row."

"Uh…yes."

I wanted to pretend nothing happened and chat with Xiao Yihuo for a few minutes before leaving, but the atmosphere between the two of them became increasingly awkward. Lin Lezhi explained with a smile, "Ziheng wanted me to sleep a little longer, so he asked Qingchuan for some sleeping pills. I have to say, after sleeping for the past two days, I really feel a lot more refreshed and my body feels lighter."

"Qingchuan didn't tell me about this." Xiao Yihuo seemed to be relieved and said with peace of mind: "You should have a good rest. I'm glad you're okay."

After saying this, Xiao Yihuo's hand holding the teacup trembled slightly, and his expression showed forbearance.

"Qingchuan is just worried that you'll worry. Besides, you just woke up last night, so you need a chance to tell..."

With a "bang", the cup in Xiao Yihuo's hand fell and the tea inside flowed out.

Xiao Yihuo wanted to reach out to help, but it was too late. The clothes piled on the table were soaked, and Xiao Yihuo's cuffs were also wet.

"Xiao Xu!"

At this moment, all the embarrassment was not as serious as what was happening right now. Lin Lezhi grabbed Xiao Yihuo's wrist to stop him. The moment he touched Xiao Yihuo's wrist, Lin Lezhi's eyes suddenly tightened, and the blood in his body seemed to freeze in an instant.

Xiao Yihuo's hands were as cold as ice.

He...

Lin Lezhi looked at the corner of the quilt that was obviously lifted up because someone had been lying there, and then looked at Xiao Yihuo who was only wearing a thin coat. He pursed his lips tightly together and clenched his teeth.

"Don't worry about the teacup for now." Lin Lezhi's voice was filled with anxiety and determination. He pulled Xiao Yihuo and walked straight to the bed. "It's like this now, just lie down on the bed."
