The slightly stinging disinfectant was being applied to Gu Tong’s wound, causing her to grimace a little.
Li Yan’s expression still looked serious, but his hand was controlled and asured, gently and softly wiping, trying his best to alleviate her pain.
The cotton ball soaked in disinfectant had been stained with fresh blood, and the wound was almost cleaned.
Reflecting in Li Yan’s dark eyes were the heavily scarred little hands. He frowned and said sternly, "The other paw!"
"..." Why did she feel like she was being treated like a dog...
Gu Tong ridiculed to herself, but she didn’t dare not cooperate, obediently extending her other hand.
The sa actions were repeated in the palm of the other hand.
After who knows how long, Li Yan finally completed the disinfection work. He tucked Gu Tong’s paw back under the blanket, then leaned against the headboard without speaking.
Why was he angry again...
Gu Tong wanted to bury her head and cry...
Her little head nudged over and finally landed on Li Yan’s shoulder, saying, "Hubby, how about we go again..."
"..." This girl wasn’t in pain anymore...
At this mont, besides being speechless, Li Yan didn’t know what to say. He couldn’t get angry at this woman, could only fu by himself, yet he had no way to deal with her.
He wrapped his arms around Gu Tong’s body, lowered his eyelids, and looked at the woman cautiously trying to please him, saying, "Do you know Xia Xi?"
This question was sothing Li Yan had long wanted to ask, but his original reason was thoroughly destroyed, so all the doubts naturally dispersed like smoke.
"Well, sort of..."
Gu Tong said sowhat guilty, "Gong Chenli arranged for her to teach Artifact Technique, and after spending a few days together, we got along quite well, so we got close quickly..."
She forced an explanation, but in reality, she also knew their earlier behavior was not like that of just-acquainted people.
More like, knowing each other for a long ti...
"Is that so!"
Li Yan was half-convinced. He concentrated on the little woman for a while and then said, "When she taught you Artifact Technique, was she dressed in won’s clothing?"
This question was absolutely the sharpest, the most lethal...
Few people knew the na Xia Xi, Lin Shuai or Lin Beauty were the titles she liked to use when moving about.
If not soone extrely familiar, they have no reason to know this na of hers!
So, this was the reason for Li Yan’s puzzlent!
Weren’t Xia Xi and Gu Tong just recently acquainted, how could they be so candid in such a short ti? This was clearly unrealistic.
"At first she was indeed in n’s attire, but later, when the enemy ca, her wig was knocked off, so she just stopped pretending... We hid in a cave, living and dying together, so... she reintroduced herself..."
Gu Tong forcibly tried to make the situation appear reasonable, exhausting her efforts to deceive her Earl.
However, her Deceiving Skill was indeed limited...
She could deceive the heaven and earth, but not her own Devil King...
Gu Tong didn’t want to continue this topic, so she hurriedly changed the subject, saying, "By the way... how did you beco Gong Chenli’s nephew?"
This question also puzzled Gu Tong very much.
Even if Gong Chenli wasn’t close with his nephew, he should at least know what the other looks like, right? Such an identity is hard to impersonate.
How could Li Yan so easily hide himself and even successfully infiltrate Gong Chenli’s side?
Gu Tong couldn’t help but recall the decisive words of Mo Zishuang when she issued the task before, it was clear she had confird this matter at that ti...
