Dianxia Qingcheng

g pulled up his trousers again, and then his eyes turned cold.

 

 Qi Changyi's knees were red and swollen, forming a very strong contrast with the snow-white skin.
There were still red blood streaks in several serious places, which looked a bit scary.

 

  “How did this happen ?”

 

 Qi Changyi shrank his leg back, trying to cover the injury, but Pei Zheng grabbed his ankle.

 

 “Tell me, how did it happen?”

 

 His tone was a little impatient.

 

 This is not the first time that he found scars on Qi Changyi's body that he didn't know about.
This little fool lives in this eating-people harem only by himself.
If he didn't protect him openly and secretly on normal days, he was afraid that he wouldn't even know how he died.

 

 Qi Changyi was frightened by Pei Zheng's fierce eyes, and his language was a little awkward, “I, I hit it myself, just at the banquet, it's fine, it doesn't hurt at all, really, Pei-Gege, don't be angry……”

 He is not afraid of pain or being hurt, but he is most afraid of Pei Zheng being angry with himself.

 

 Pei Zheng snorted coldly and pressed his fingers hard on his wound.
Qi Changyi gasped abruptly, his eyes watery.

 

     “Ah!”

 

 “Didn't you say it doesn't hurt?” Pei Zheng retracted his fingers and stood up, looking down at Qi Changyi, “When will Your Highness's defect of mouth saying yes and heart saying no, will be corrected? (2) Don't tell me that it is also like this in front of General Zhao?”

 

 Qi Changyi opened his mouth but he didn't know how he should answer.
He could see Pei Zheng's anger, and just wanted to follow along with his heart wishes to help him calm down. 

 

 Thinking of what Pei Zheng did when he came to his Living Quarters at night, Qi Changyi stood up with a great effort.
He slowly moved closer to him, and stretched out his fair, delicate, and tender hand.

 

 Pei Zheng felt those as soft, as if boneless hands, and took a few deep breaths.
The hands moved with no method, and he only knew how to move back and forth at random and mess around.
But it still made Pei Zheng's body tighten, and the blood all over his body surged up violently.
