Chapter 132: He Was Explaining and Making Promises

What Si Mobai didn’t realize was that she wasn’t the only young, shy one . His face was also just as red and bashful .

Whether Feng Tianlan slowly closed her eyes because his minty smell made her feel secure, or her injuries were too severe, she wasn’t sure . But her hands continued to hang onto the corner of his sleeve, not letting go .

Si Mobai found a small cave and put his outer garment on the ground for her to lie on . He fed her a Grade 3 Quick Healing Pill, which he took out from his storage space . Then, he wet a handkerchief with water from the Spiritual Spring in his storage space and gently wiped the bloodstains from her face and all the bloodied wounds on her body .

As he lightly wiped her neck, any wounded area touched by the Spiritual Spring water immediately healed . Her perfect, fair skin was revealed, and he started to feel a fire in his body and thirst in his mouth . He suddenly had an urge to taste this rare delicacy in front of him .

Si Mobai narrowed his eyes and suppressed the fire inside him and concentrated on properly wiping the Feng Tianlan’s other wounds . But the more he wiped, the more enflamed he became . It wasn’t the fire of desire anymore, but the fire of pure fury .

There were countless wounds all over her body, big and small, new and old . Si Mobai’s cold, almond-shaped eyes became murderous and frosty . His gaze chilled to the bone .

How dare they hurt her like this!

He had an urge to destroy Feng Xiupei immediately . But, after thinking about the enemies that they were to face in the future and how powerful they were, he suppressed the murderous intent in his heart . He had to leave these current enemies for her to use for her training . Emotions must not easily sway him .

He took out a second outer garment from the storage space and covered her with it . Gently, he touched the scary scar on Feng Tianlan’s face . His eyes blazed with rage again . Whoever inflicted such harm on her would get it back a hundred times—from him!

He wanted her to mature on her own, but he couldn’t resist wanting to protect her . Even back when he had only seen her once, he’d already had the urge to protect her for the rest of his life . He could not bear to see her sad or hurt, and he wished he was the one injured instead of her .

Feng Tianlan opened her eyes . The first thing she saw was that enchantingly handsome face, which belonged to Si Mobai . The fiery blood-red dot between his eyebrows was as mesmerizing as ever .

“You’re awake?” Si Mobai was immediately filled with regret after saying this . His tone was way too cold, so he felt he had to explain himself: “I’m used to it . ”

He was used to being cold to people, so he hoped she wouldn’t mind .

Feng Tianlan blinked and looked at him in confusion . She didn’t get what he was talking about . Used to what?

“I will change,” Si Mobai tried to speak in a gentler voice . Because he’d never been like this before, his voice was still stiff .

Feng Tianlan now understood what he meant . He was trying to explain himself and even making promises . But whatever for? They were just strangers .

“Why are you here?” Feng Tianlan decided to ignore the weird feeling in her heart and asked him this question coldly . Didn’t he go to some faraway place? Why had he suddenly appeared here?

Si Mobai felt Feng Tianlan distancing herself from him . He started to frown while pretending not to be bothered . “I happened to pass by . ”

When he had returned, his subordinates had reported that Feng Tianlan’s servant girl had gone missing . He’d immediately thought that someone was trying to threaten her . He’d used all his resources to find her and had just happened to witness her falling over the cliff’s edge . He hadn’t had time to think, so he’d sent a Palm Wind toward Feng Xiupei then jumped off the cliff .

“Thank you,” Feng Tianlan thanked him as formally and sincerely as she could . She didn’t believe that he just happened to be passing by .
