Married To The Cruel Crown Prince Chapter 96 - Run And Hide Like Crazy

Chapter 96 - Run And Hide Like Crazy

Ying Lili made a pout upon hearing the words of Sheng Li. "You should praise me. It was my first time," Ying Lili complained as she crossed her arms.

"You injured yourself. The Crown Princess is injured, which is not acceptable. I meant that. Now, if anyone asks tomorrow what happened to your foot, then just tell him/her that you slipped in the bathhouse," a.s.serted Sheng Li. "Zhang Yong will be mad if seeing the mess you created in his residence," Sheng Li chuckled and smiled.

"He will check the secret room and will be infuriated if he found out that the ledger book is missing," Ying Lili proclaimed.

Sheng Li turned his back to Ying Lili and asked her to give him the Ledger Account book. Ying Lili opened the knot of the jacket and cautiously took out the ledger book. She did not take the diary out and quickly tied the knot. "Here," Ying Lili said and forwarded the book to Sheng Li.

Sheng Li turned to Ying Lili and took the ledger book from her. The Crown Prince flipped through the pages and saw how the Prime Minister had manipulated the taxes. A sly smile formed on Sheng Li's lips. He closed the book and placed it on the table there.

"Tell me what do you want?" Sheng Li asked Ying Lili. Since no candle was lit, Ying Lili could only see his eyes looking at her. "Tell me your wish and I will fulfill that," Sheng Li p.r.o.nounced.

"Will you be able to fulfill my wish?" Ying Lili questioned, raising a brow.

"I believe I have enough power to fulfill your wish," Sheng Li stated and removed the headband.

Ying Lili, after staring at him for a while, said, "I will ask later. Since you are going to fulfill a wish of mine, then I must put a good thought on my wish." Sheng Li nodded and stood up from the bed. He opened the waistband and put it on the side table.

Turning to Ying Lili he said, "I will be back." Ying Lili saw Sheng Li had walked out of the chamber. She was tired after completing the mission so laid down on the bed. Soon she drifted to sleep. When Sheng Li came back with a bowl of water and cotton napkin in his hand, he found that Ying Lili was already asleep.

He put the bowl and the napkin on the table there and lit the candle. Bringing the candle to Ying Lili's foot, he checked her foot. "It is badly swollen," he murmured and brought the candle closer to the knee to check the wound. He put the candle stand on the bedside table and brought the bowl along with the napkin there.

He cleaned the wound from the napkin when Ying Lili's sleep broke. She looked at him and immediately sat up, covering her leg. Sheng Li amusingly looked at her. "What do you think you are doing? You think I will do something to you?" Sheng Li questioned her with annoyance.

"No, I did not think that. I will do it myself," Ying Lili stated when Sheng Li pulled her leg and stretched it out. "Why are you getting shy? It isn't like seeing your knee will get me excited," Sheng Li remarked and lifted her skirt up again. "If it is not treated then it can get an infection. You have fought in battles, so how could you be careless?" Ying Lili found a gentle side of Sheng Li towards her. She did not stop him while her eyes fell on Sheng Li's left arm.

"You are also injured. We shall treat it as well," Ying Lili whispered.

"I will do it after I am done with you," Sheng Li stated. "Don't move too much for a day. Your foot is not in a good condition," Sheng Li leaned back and pulled down the skirt. "Did you understand?" He then asked.

Ying Lili nodded. "There are some cotton napkins in that cupboard. You can bring one for yourself. I will dress your wound as well," Ying Lili offered her help.

"No need. I will clean it myself." Sheng Li stood up from the bed and went to the cupboard. Taking out a napkin, he picked the water bowl and took it towards the chaise. He stood such that his back faced Ying Lili. Removing the upper jacket, Sheng Li dipped the napkin into the water bowl, squeezed it, and started cleaning the blood on his arm.

Ying Lili's eyes were fixated on Sheng Li's back. She saw the scars he had on his back and drew her brows together. "Don't stare at me," Sheng Li in a hoa.r.s.e voice said as he tilted his head slightly to glance at Ying Lili, who right away lowered her eyes.

"Who is staring at you? It isn't like your body is that good," Sheng Li heard Ying Lili's mumbles when he turned to look at her. He removed the upper robe, put the napkin over the bowl, and went to the bed.

He sat beside Ying Lili who was avoiding his gaze. "You did not like my body?" Sheng Li asked her, as he noticed Ying Lili was moving to the other side.

"What are you showing off? Just cover it," Ying Lili snapped at him when Sheng Li gripped Ying Lili's arm, pinning her down on the bed. She crossed her arms over her chest.

"I am sleepy. Get away from me," Ying Lili said but Sheng Li was not ready to leave her.

"I saw how you were drooling seeing me like this," Sheng Li teased her while his index finger traced the contours of Ying Lili's face.

"Huh!" "Drooling over you? D-Don't dream!! There is nothing to be drooling about," Ying Lili responded as she poked her index finger on Sheng Li's chest to push him away. "Get away and stop doing that," Ying Lili said as her eyes fluttered.

"Stop doing what?" Sheng Li asked as he stopped his pointer finger under Ying Lili's chin. "I had never thought that I would have to run and hide like crazy to save you. You did this to me twice - once when you took me to the market and second when I sent you for a mission. What did you do there? Would you like to tell me so that I can cover up your mistakes tomorrow," Sheng Li demanded the answer.
