Chapter 50 – If There’s a First Time, Then There’s also a Second Time
Ji Yunhuang lightly touched the birthmark on her shoulder, and a faint light flashed behind his eyes.
She was not an impostor; she was the real Ning Xuemo…
Twelve years ago, he had seen her as an infant and noticed the birthmark. He even touched it out of curiosity.
Anything else could be faked but not this.
Apart from her parents, he should be the only one who knows about her birthmark.
Perhaps this little girl herself did not even know about its existence…
He cut the pill in half before using water to dissolve it. He dipped his fingertips in the mixture and started to apply it on her wound…
Ning Xuemo felt as if electrical currents flowed from his fingertips; the pain disappeared everywhere he touched, leaving behind a slight warm feeling. Shortly after, a cool sensation seeped in before a slight prickling itch took over.
Ning Xuemo had been injured often in her previous world, so she could tell that this feeling meant that her injuries were healing. The only difference was that her wounds were healing at a much faster rate than in her previous world.
It seems like the crown prince’s unique healing art was very effective!
Soon the medicine was completely applied to her back. Seeing that he was planning to stop there, Ning Xuemo moved her injured arm towards him. “Please treat my shoulder and arm too.”
Ji Yunhuang was chuckling behind her. “Weren’t you reluctant to have me attend to your wounds just earlier?”
“Your Highness has already said that if there’s a first time, there’s also a second time. Since Your Highness has already applied the medicine on my back, then you might as well do so for the other injured areas too. A good deed must be carried through. When sending Buddha, send him all the way to the West.” As Ning Xuemo’s pain eased, her voice also became more melodious.
“You really know how to get what you want.” Ji Yunhuang’s voice held a hint of laughter that wasn’t quite laughter. Seeming as if he was sighing while probing her out, he asked “If you were always this smart, how did you let people bully you? Now it’s like you’re a completely different person.”
Could he be suspecting her identity?
