Half an hour later, although Xiao Jinzhi bathed and changed her clothes every day, Chu Huanyan still simply washed herself and treated it as getting up and doing some activities.

When she saw Xiao Jinzhi asking someone to bring hot water for bathing into her room, she looked at him.

"Do you really want to take a bath here?"

"I'm not afraid, what should Yan Yan be afraid of?" Xiao Jinzhi said while giving Chu Huanyan a look that said, "I don't mind being looked at."

Seeing that the hot water had been brought in, Chu Huanyan did not stop him. After all, the room was separated by a screen.

The servant who brought the water retreated, and Xiao Jinzhi entered the bathtub, not forgetting to shout to Chu Huanyan through the screen.

"Yanyan, do you really not want to come in and take a look?"

Chu Huanyan sat at the table and ignored him.

Xiao Jinzhi, however, persisted and continued: "Why don't you come in and take a look at Yan Yan? After all, your future husband's good figure may not be clearly reflected in your dream."

"Xiao Jinzhi, please save some face!" Chu Huanyan said helplessly, but suddenly remembered the scars on Xiao Jin's back that she would see in the previous life.

Is there also Xiao Jinzhi in this life?

Chu Huanyan couldn't help but turn her head and look in the direction of the screen.

In the bathtub, Xiao Jinzhi was still high.

However, the next moment, Chu Huanyan stood up and walked over.

Xiao Jinzhi was facing the direction of the screen. When he saw Chu Huanyan walking around the screen, he was stunned for a moment, and then his ears started to turn red quickly.

"Yanyan, you..."

Yan Yan actually came in!

I don’t know if Yan Yan’s figure in her dream is good or not, compared to her real self. He won’t be...disliked, right?

Thinking of this, Xiao Jin subconsciously lowered his body slightly and hid it in the tub.

Chu Huanyan originally wanted to find out what was going on because of the scar on Xiao Jin's back, but she didn't think too much about it for a while. When I really walked in, I suddenly felt uneasy.

Just when she was hesitating whether to turn around or leave, she noticed Xiao Jinzhi's actions and suddenly felt more natural.

Looking at Xiao Jinzhi, he could even raise his eyebrows calmly, "Didn't you let me in just now? Now that I have come in, His Royal Highness is becoming shy?"

"How could I be shy!" Xiao Jinzhi spoke quickly, coughed slightly, regained some of his composure, and looked at Chu Huanyan with a bright smile on her lips, "Yanyan, you have already seen me bathing, but you have to Take responsibility for me."

Chu Huanyan ignored Xiao Jinzhi's expression of relying on her and said directly: "Let me see your back."

Xiao Jinzhi was stunned for a moment, "Yanyan, you..."

Why did Yan Yan suddenly want to look at his back?

"Xiao Jinzhi, I want to see your back." Chu Huanyan spoke again.

Xiao Jinzhi frowned. On his back...

Xiao Jinzhi hesitated, but when he met Chu Huanyan's firm gaze, he slowly turned around.

Although he had already seen it once and was mentally prepared, when he saw that it was really crisscrossed with scars, Chu Huanyan couldn't help but tremble in his heart.

"These scars on your back..."

"It's ugly, isn't it?" Xiao Jinzhi said helplessly, "These are all left over from the early years. I'll go back and ask Shen Chi to see if there is any way he can remove these scars."

If I had known that I would encounter Yan Yan, I should have applied more scar-removing elixir when I was first injured.

At that time, he didn't care at all. He just wanted to heal the wound. As for the scar, why bother worrying about it? It was on his back and no one could see it. It was too late to regret it now!

Xiao Jinzhi was feeling annoyed in his heart while waiting for Chu Huanyan's next words. However, he did not hear the other party speak for a long time.

Just when he was about to turn around and look at Chu Huanyan, he suddenly felt a tremor on his back.

Chu Huanyan's fingertips brushed against the deepest scar.

"Yan Yan..." Xiao Jinzhi trembled all over and became unnatural for a moment.

Chu Huanyan looked at the deepest scar and couldn't help but frown, "It must be very painful."

Xiao Jinzhi froze when he wanted to turn around, and just felt the touch of Chu Huanyan's fingertips quietly. At the same time, because of those words of concern, honey seemed to melt in his heart.

"It no longer hurts."

"Then what's going on with these injuries? Especially the deepest scar." Chu Huanyan asked.

"They were assassinations in previous years. The deepest one was a stab wound. When I was fourteen, someone pretended to be a food deliveryman and sneaked into the Prince's Mansion. He stabbed me in a sneak attack."

Xiao Jinzhi paused and added,

"At that time, the power in my hands was not enough. Facing these assassinations, I did not have enough ability to block them 100% of the time, so I suffered some injuries. But it is different now."

Xiao Jinzhi turned his head and looked at Chu Huanyan seriously, "What happened to Xiao Rongxuan was due to my negligence, but it will never happen again. Yan Yan, I swear to you with my life that as long as I am still alive in the future, It will never put you in danger."

In the past half month, apart from fear and worry, what is left is deep regret.

He was annoyed, even resentful of his own negligence. In the dead of night, he prayed to God to turn back time and give him a chance to start over. Even if he was asked to lie on the bed instead of Yan Yan, he would be willing to do so.

Chu Huanyan stared into Xiao Jinzhi's eyes and said this: "Xiao Jinzhi, I will also protect you. Although compared to your status, I may not be able to do much, but from now on, I I will always stand by your side.”

The firm words revealed clear love. Xiao Jinzhi looked at the person in front of him, his heart beating like thunder.

There may have been a very difficult time in the past, and he even secretly lamented the injustice of his fate. But now he understands that even if his fate is truly unfair, God has already compensated him many times over.

Reaching out to pull the person closer, Xiao Jinzhi's eyes were full of joy and cherishment, "Yanyan, I am so lucky to meet you."

……

As the news of Chu Huanyan's awakening spread, the stones in the hearts of the courtiers finally fell to the ground. On the second day, they began to boldly come to the Ning'an Marquis Mansion to ask for an audience.

"Miss, Prime Minister Liu is here." Xian Yue walked into the room and reported to Chu Huanyan.

Seeing Chu Huanyan, who was safe and sound, standing by the window, Xian Yue couldn't help but blush again.

Yesterday, she got the news relatively late, and it was already night when she rushed back. The moment she saw that the young lady really woke up, she hugged him and cried loudly.

Fortunately, God has mercy and the lady is safe!

"I know, Xiao Jinzhi is meeting with the courtiers in the study. Just ask Prime Minister Liu to be invited there." Chu Huanyan turned around while speaking. When she saw Xian Yue's red eyes, she smiled helplessly. "I'm fine now, why are you still sad?"

"No, I'm not sad. I'm happy." Xian Yue quickly calmed down her emotions and continued, "Miss, Prime Minister Liu sent someone to tell you that he is not here to see His Highness the Crown Prince. He wants to see you."
