Bai Xiangxiu felt the urge to cry from embarrassment. How could she get a nosebleed in front of a man!? She immediately took out her handkerchief to cover her nose, then turned her face away where no one could see her quietly bleed it out.

But the male lead seem to be her natural-born enemy. A cold voice shattered the silence, "We'll go back first and see a doctor." As he spoke, Bai Xiangxiu felt her entire body turn weightless as she gaped. She'd been picked up in a princess carry by the male lead who would kill her in the future! How should she react?! She's waiting online urgently for answers! Urgent! Emergency! As it turned out, she didn't have enough time to form a reaction before she was carefully placed on a bed, and soon greeted by the arrival of a doctor.

Indeed, a simple nosebleed had sent about half the temple into alert because Long Heng had carried her in looking for a little monk at the same time most of the monks were having their noonday rest. Bai Xiangxiu felt a profound sense of wanting to give up on herself. The nosebleed had clearly stopped, but she still used the handkerchief to block her face, afraid to look at the doctor. Originally, it would've been just fine if she washed it off, but the male lead kept staring at her. He wouldn't let her off the bed!

As a result, the doctor saw Bai Xiangxiu's face while it was covered in blood. He examined her before concluding that the problem had resolved itself. All she had to do was wash it off and prevent herself from running into such hard objects in the future.

Bai Xiangxiu glanced at the 'hard object' who had his back to her as he looked out the window. She nodded and said, "Understood, thank you very much." Meanwhile, the oblivious 'hard object' mused that he hadn't expect her to be so polite to a common doctor. Her personality wasn't half-bad. It was just that she was too weak.

Xiao Shi finally came back at this time, feeling greatly distressed at Bai Xiangxiu's blood spattered face. She hastily pumped some water to clean her mistress' face, her movements light and gentle for fear of injuring her further. But after washing up, she noticed that the skin at the tip of her mistress's nose was still red.

"Madame Xiu, your nose is a bit red here. I'll go fetch some medicine."

"No need, it's just a minor injury." She didn't mind. After all, that fiendish man was still here and she had no idea what he was planning.

"Use this medicine for your mistress," Long Heng also felt it unwise to linger long in a woman's rooms, thus he turned and walked out.

Xiao Shi hurriedly took the medicine bottle in her hands before opening it up to take a sniff. "Madame Xiu, it smells really nice. How about we smear just a little on. This is also a measure of the prince's kindly feelings towards you, too."

Would he bear a grudge if she didn't accept this kindness? When her thoughts ran here, she was quick to nod her head, so Xiao Shi helped her apply the medicine. After that was done, the two of them gave a start. This medicine was actually transparent, but turned red after they applied it. Not only was it red, it was also hard to wash off. It also really hurt if they tried to use force and scrubbed. Once again, Bai Xiangxiu came to the conclusion that the male lead was definitely her lifelong bane. How was she supposed to face people like this?

Fortunately, she managed to hide herself using the pretense of treating her injury until it was time to return to the capital. Whenever she needed to go out, she wore a headcover so that no one else could see.
