Chapter 250: Secret Annoyance

Gu Junqing's skin was originally fair and delicate. If she was touched with a little force, her skin would turn red, looking as if she had been pinched by someone. What's more, she had hit the tree and had her skin scraped off.

From Qi Yunjin's perspective, it looked like Gu Junqing had a fight with someone, causing the skin on his forehead to become red and swollen.

He frowned, looking at the scratch on her forehead, feeling unhappy and wondering how it happened, so he asked her the whole story.

In fact, Gu Junqing was not very willing to answer the question asked by the emperor. After all, the so-called cause and effect was really too embarrassing. But looking at the emperor's sincere and concerned eyes, Gu Junqing felt that it was not so embarrassing. She coughed lightly, and then tried to remain calm and said that she just fell outside, that's all.

Qi Yunjin lowered his eyes in silence and looked at the scratch on Gu Junqing's forehead. Seeing that her expression was a little unnatural, for some reason, he actually wanted to laugh.

Thinking this in his heart, he laughed out loud. Gu Junqing knew what the emperor was laughing at, she pursed her lips, thinking that it would be better for her to try to change the subject.

She was just thinking about what to say when Qi Yunjin, who was sitting at the top of the table, walked up to her. Her forehead was immediately hot, and she felt a touch of warmth and numbness coming from his fingertips, which made Gu Junqing's heart itch slightly. She stood there in a daze, not knowing how to react.

Looks silly.

Qi Yunjin's gaze shifted from her forehead to her face. Seeing her expression, he wanted to laugh and thought she was cute.

As a result, the smile on his face couldn't help but take on a hint of tenderness, and even his tone seemed much gentler and kinder than before, with a hint of coaxing.

Then, while no one was paying attention, he took Gu Junqing's hand and walked over to the desk.

There was no medicine here, so he asked Li Yuan, who was guarding outside, to go to the Imperial Hospital to get a few bottles of abrasion medicine.

When Li Yuan heard that the emperor wanted to apply medicine on his wound, he moved closer to the emperor with a nervous look on his face and asked the emperor if he had been hurt.

Qi Yunjin didn't say anything, just listened for a long time without moving his eyebrows. Seeing that he was still talking, he couldn't help but interrupt and urged: "I'm fine, just go out and get it, hurry up"

The emperor started to urge him, and even though Li Yuan was worried in his heart, seeing that the emperor looked like he was making a big deal out of nothing, he smiled awkwardly, then left the Qinzheng Hall, looking back every few steps, to find the ointment.

Gu Junqing watched him leave and thought about the conversation between the two of them. She couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed. She turned her head to see what the emperor was doing. However, she saw Qi Yunjin's eyes seemed to be looking at her. Gu Junqing's heart skipped a beat, and the smile on her face froze. Then her eyes flickered, and she didn't know how to react.

Could it be that Qi Yunjin has been staring at me like this from the beginning until now?

Gu Junqing thought this idea was a little ridiculous. After complaining in his heart, he tried his best to focus his attention on other things and not to pay attention to what the emperor was doing.

Then she heard the emperor's ambiguous chuckle, followed by the sound of footsteps.

After feeling that the emperor was no longer in front of her, Gu Junqing breathed a sigh of relief with an imperceptible degree of relief. She always felt a little uncomfortable when the emperor was around her. As for why Gu Junqing was at a loss, this was a feeling she had never had before.

After all, this discomfort does not mean disgust, but I just feel unaccustomed to it. Gu Junqing thought so in his heart.

Li Yuan quickly rushed back to the Qinzheng Palace from the Imperial Hospital. As soon as he pushed open the palace door, he held the bottles of ointment in both hands and asked the emperor which one he wanted.

Qi Yunjin was naturally the best one chosen. Li Yuan actually brought the Jade Skin Cream as well, which was exactly what he wanted.

He first asked Li Yuan to leave. Li Yuan would naturally listen to Qi Yunjin's words, so he retreated hesitantly.

When you guys closed the palace door again, Qi Yun unscrewed the bottle cap of the jade cream. A cool and pleasant smell came from the bottle. Gu Junqing raised his eyebrows and his eyes fell on the ointment in Qi Yunjin's hand.

Gu Junqing still hasn't figured out what the emperor wanted from Li Yuan for the jade skin cream. After all, she didn't see any scratches on the emperor's body.

She thought that the emperor might have asked Li Yuan to go to the Imperial Hospital to get it because of the scratch on her forehead, but this idea was rejected by Gu Junqing in an instant.

First of all, she felt that she was being too sentimental, but on the other hand, she felt that it was just a minor injury and the emperor was not the kind of person who would make a fuss about nothing.

However, all these thoughts were shattered in the next second. She was still wondering why the emperor took this thing, when she suddenly heard the emperor calling her over from above.

Gu Junqing suddenly raised his eyes, staring straight at Qi Yunjin, or rather, at the ointment in Qi Yunjin's hand, and then slowly moved towards Qi Yunjin's side.

There was no expression on his face, but he was extremely shocked in his heart.

Perhaps because she was walking too slowly, Qi Yunjin stood up impatiently and walked towards her. Gu Junqing didn't know what the emperor was going to do, but her feet stopped subconsciously, waiting for the emperor to approach her.

The next second, her wrist was gently pulled closer to him by the person in front of her. Then she put down her hand, dipped some jade cream between her index fingers, and then touched her forehead with her fingertips and rubbed it gently, with a bit of care and tenderness. Gu Junqing was startled, and the uncomfortable feeling in her heart came back. Her eyes flashed, but she didn't take a few steps back.

After he applied the medicine, Gu Junqing came back to her senses. Then the emperor put the jade skin ointment in her hand and asked her to keep it and remember to apply the medicine.

Gu Junqing didn't know what expression to make, but she had to respond to what the emperor said. She put the jade skin ointment in the brocade bag on her waist. Fortunately, the brocade bag was big enough to hold such a small bottle of ointment.

While Qi Yunjin turned around and wasn't looking at him, Gu Junqing quickly reached out his hand and touched the small scratch on his forehead. It was smooth and delicate there, and he couldn't feel the scratch by touching it. In the past, Gu Junqing would never bother to take care of such minor scratches on his body. After all, they would heal quickly and didn't hurt.

But today was a little different. The emperor applied the medicine so gently, as if he was some kind of fragile and precious porcelain treasure. Gu Junqing's ears moved slightly. This small injury that he usually thought was insignificant actually felt a little noticeable and painful. Gu Junqing pursed his lips and began to be annoyed by this strange illusion.
