Transmigrated into a vicious female supporting role, reborn as a hostage to the paranoid male protag

Chapter 20 Her eyes were red and a tear fell on the man's scarred back.

Su Yingxue quietly walked behind the screen and saw Chu Xingchen lying on the bed. A servant was applying medicine gently to the wounds on his back.

When the servant saw that she was about to bow, she stretched out her hand to signal him to be quiet, took the ointment in the porcelain bottle from his hand, waved him away, dipped her index finger in the ointment herself, and gently applied it to each of his wounds.

Even after two days of applying medicine, the wound still hadn't healed, stained with bright red blood. The imperial physician had said in his prescription that day that the Internal Supervisor's whip had been soaked in a special potion, which was why Chu Xingchen's wound had been so difficult to heal.

Although this medicine was specially prepared by the imperial physician out of consideration for Her Royal Highness the Princess, and used many precious medicinal materials, it did not have a very good effect.

Su Yingxue looked at the boy's fair back, and her eyes suddenly turned red. She tried to move as lightly as possible, fearing she would hurt him.

Su Yingxue carefully smoothed out the scars on her back, and finally stopped at a deep knife wound on her right shoulder where the bone was visible.

This hideous, bloody wound, deep enough to reveal the bone, reminded Su Yingxue of the first time Chu Xingchen fainted. She had applied medicine to this wound, but it was an old one. When the imperial physician examined it, they found that the wound was too deep and had become rotten and festered due to being soaked in water, and it had not received treatment at the Internal Affairs Office.

Su Yingxue remembered the day Chu Xingchen had run a severe fever from an infected wound and fainted. The imperial physician personally used a tempered knife to cut open the wound, removing the festering, foul-smelling flesh bit by bit. He then poured a whole jar of strong medicinal wine over the wound to disinfect it and wash away the blood and pus.

Even in his sleep, Chu Xingchen was sweating all over from the pain as he cut the rotten flesh and drank the medicinal wine. His whole body was twitching in pain, and it took several servants to hold him down.

Now, although the wound is not as severe as that day when the flesh was cut, it is still very red, the blood and flesh are bright red, and some places are even exposed. Every time Su Yingxue sees the wounds on his body, she feels that they are Su Yingxue's crimes, which are too numerous to list!

Therefore, Su Yingxue hesitated. She thought of his struggle in pain that day, and her hand, which was covered with ointment, seemed to be still and could not fall.

Perhaps there was a moment when she couldn't bear to apply the medicine and hurt him. Just like at this moment, her eyes reddened and a tear fell on the man's strong back covered with red marks.

Chu Xingchen had originally closed his eyes. Today, the servant seemed to be applying the medicine with a lighter touch than usual. Previously, the force was so strong that it seemed as if it would rub the skin off his wound. It seemed that applying the medicine was something the servant was extremely reluctant to do.

That’s right, Chu Xingchen couldn’t help but laugh at himself. What does it matter if he was once a nobleman, a hostage of the Great Qi Emperor who could bully, humiliate and beat even the servants?

A slave or servant of the Great Sheng Kingdom, even if he was as low as dust in the Great Sheng Palace and was beaten and scolded by his master, was still a Da Sheng person. Those palace maids and servants always unconsciously thought in their hearts that just by virtue of their identity as Da Sheng people, they were a bit more noble than Chu Xingchen.

After all, the Great Qi Kingdom, backed by Chu Xingchen, was, in the eyes of the people of Great Sheng, nothing more than a foreign nation paying tribute. Foreign nations were nothing more than slaves. Even the reigning Great Qi monarch was an incompetent ruler who annually dispatched envoys laden with gold, silver, jewels, cloth, silk, and beautiful women as tribute. What was there to talk about, even with a mere prince held hostage?

But today, Chu Xingchen felt that this boy had suddenly become much gentler. His strength was not strong or unusual, but rather gentle. Until drops of warm water fell on his back.

He suddenly became alert, stood up and sat down, then grabbed the hand that was applying the medicine, staring at the person in front of him with a face full of hostility and vigilance, but he saw that the person was dressed in jewels and jade, with gorgeous clothes and jade hairpins all over his head, a stunning oval face, a pair of black eyes that were red and filled with tears, and traces of tears sliding down his face...

Su Yingxue didn't expect Chu Xingchen to turn around suddenly. He grabbed her wrist with force in vain. The pain made her frown. She raised her eyes to look at him, but met Chu Xingchen's vigilant eyes like a wolf cub, with deep exploration in them.

As for the exploration, it was because Chu Xingchen saw pity, guilt, and repentance in Su Yingxue's beautiful and smart eyes for the first time...

Chu Xingchen, for a moment, felt surprised and at the same time, he felt a deep sense of conspiracy. He had been exposed to Su Yingxue's cruelty and viciousness since he was a child, and everyone knew that she was a venomous snake and scorpion, so they kept their distance.

But the world has never known that even if someone is extremely beautiful, they may be as poisonous as snakes and scorpions inside, vicious and cruel, far more poisonous than snakes and scorpions.

The poison of snakes and scorpions makes people afraid and stay away from them.

But Su Yingxue is extremely powerful and has a vicious heart. Even her gentle, beautiful and harmless appearance like a white rabbit cannot hide her poisonous and sinister intentions inside!

The relationship between Su Yingxue and him is like that of a tiger and a sheep.

Chu Xingchen sneered in his heart, what kind of trick is this?

Have you ever seen a hungry tiger? Have you ever seen a hungry tiger show mercy to a lamb at its mouth? When it is being hunted down and swallowed alive, does it feel guilt? Does it feel pity? Does it feel remorse?

Chu Xing pondered this, his eyes filled with a cold chill. What? Just a mere reward of medicine after the fight, and he's already bursting into tears of gratitude? That's ridiculous.

Su Yingxue didn't know what Chu Xingchen was thinking. She was just a little panicked and scared when she was stared at by Chu Xingchen's cold eyes.

Chu Xingchen's hand was so strong that it made Su Yingxue unable to move. She quickly wiped the tears from her cheek with her other hand, trying to calm herself down.

She is no longer the sentimental, naive and romantic college student Zhang Susu, but the ruthless, cold-blooded and arrogant eldest princess Su Yingxue.

"How dare you! Let me go!" After Su Yingxue calmed down, she struggled hard coldly, imitating the original owner's style, being arrogant and domineering. Although she was panicking to death, she could not lose the momentum, nor could she let Chu Xingchen suspect her.

As expected... Chu Xingchen smiled coldly. Those ridiculous and sensational dramas, but he couldn't help but reveal his true nature at the beginning?

Chu Xingchen stared at her coldly, but the hand that had restrained her wrist loosened. After all, she was still the eldest princess. Although he disliked her, he couldn't really get too upset with her. Otherwise, he would be the one who got beaten and suffered.

"Your Highness Princess, I am recuperating here. You come in quietly to apply medicine for me. You are a precious girl, and I have countless scars on my body. It is very ugly. How can I offend your eyes..." Chu Xingchen pursed his lips and sneered. This vicious woman really did not change her bad nature.

"Chu Xingchen, you are seriously injured," Su Yingxue pulled back her wrist, and a red mark was clearly visible on her wrist, which was as white as jade.
