509 Why Are The Scars Gone? (2/2)
There was the saber scar as well. That glaring wound hacked by a saber on Lingxi's upper arm had almost chopped her entire arm off. She had also been the one who bandaged the injury for her. It was an unmistakable injury, but had the saber scar gone to?
That sword…
That…
What was going on?
”Don't wear those!”
Yue Rulan practically yelled when she saw Ji Lingxi standing up to put on her clothes.
”I still want to check you. I don't believe it, I just don't…”
No matter how she examined and scrutinized her body, touching Ji Lingxi until the girl was blushing in embarrassment, she could not find any scars!
”What is happening? This is mystical…”
Yue Rulan sat in the basin distractedly, glancing at and stroking the wounds and scars on herself then looking at Ji Lingxi's peeled egg of a complexion. She soon fell into a deep trance.
”I suddenly feel like… this world… is filled with a deep hatred for me…” Yue Rulan said in near hopelessness.
Ji Lingxi chuckled secretly while dressing herself with a blush. She felt like collapsing after being touched everywhere by Sister Lan, like a female rogue.
She bit her lips and said, ”I don't know what's going on either… The scars and wounds are gone, either way… I was worried earlier… Sister Lan, what do you think is going on?”
Yue Rulan replied in anguish, ”How am I supposed to know what's going on? This shouldn't be! I saw it clearly! There were so many scars and wounds. Where have they all gone to?”
”Sister Lan, are you offended by the fact that I don't have any scars on me?” Ji Lingxi pouted in disappointment.
”Of course I'm offended! We were injured together! Look at this peppered streaks on me, then the smooth surface on you... how could I feel alright?” Yue Rulan barked in indignation.
Ji Lingxi's eyes darted furtively before she said, ”Actually… it's nothing… what's the big deal? Tell you what, I'll let you touch me more in the future… think of my body as your own…”
”Ji Lingxi!” Yue Rulan shouted, cheeks red with mortification.
Ji Lingxi's soft chortles pleading for mercy filled the tent in the ensuing silence.
…
Outside the tent, Yun Yang rubbed his nose and turned to leave.
He had been wondering about the two ladies and had wanted to come over to ask how they fared, only to encounter such an eclectic scene. He could only listen to them, but he felt terribly flustered at the conversation.
If he were to ask to see them, he would probably have been walloped by the angry and embarrassed girls without mercy. Hence, Yun Yang wisely chose to leave unannounced.
However, he shared the same confusion as Ji Lingxi and Yue Rulan. From what he heard from Shangguan Lingxiu…
”Go take a look at Lady Ji and Lady Yue. Both of them are greatly wounded and the injuries were quite serious as well. They might bear scars. This is something that a lady will find terribly hard to accept.” Shangguan Lingxiu had said.
”Then Sister Lingxiu, you… don't you have wounds and scars too?” Yun Yang asked with deep concern, ”Are they serious? Do you want me to take a look at them?”
”Get out!”
Young Master Yun Yang, the amateur flirt, left dejectedly.
Then, he had come here and coincidentally, the girls were discussing their wounds and scars. Therefore, Great Young Master Yun did not even enter the tent, choosing to leave in a dispirited mood.
Yun Yang was certain that if he had gone in, what would welcome him would be no better than Shanggun Lingxiu's adamant order to leave – perhaps it would have been an even more severe dismissal.
Young Master Yun, who left despondently, did not hear what came next.
