Inside the room, Chu Jiao was tiresomely supporting her aching body, slowly inching her way towards the bathtub.
Even though the sharp pain was overwhelming her senses, Chu Jiao could still bear it. Although the eunuch, who gave her the stick, seemed to have dealt a heavy hand, beating her until blood could be seen, this kind of beating was, in fact, not harmful to the body despite looking like a ghastly sight. However, as long as one properly tended to their broken skin, they would soon recover from the wounds. If one were to meet a person who suffered a punishment where blood and injuries couldn’t be seen, with no marks left once the beating had finished, in truth, all the injuries had actually reached the bones, and this kind of punishment was fatal.
There were many eunuchs who were at the bottom hierarchy of the palace. Even though each one of them had their own duties and served different masters, as long as there was no benefit promised, the majority of them would hold great empathy towards their own kind. Everyone was a poor unfortunate person who had been castrated, so there was no need to beat them to death. Besides, the palace was a place where the tides turned ever so often, so long as you treated someone a little bit better, the day you ran into trouble, perhaps that little bit of kindness you showed before would save your life.
Chu Jiao was actually lucky. Seeing that her body looked as delicate as a flower, the eunuch in-charge of executing the punishment didn’t torture her that much, merely finishing the twenty-five lashings as instructed. That was how she was able to support herself and get out of bed.
Her whole body was in an extrstate of disarray with her rear end completely covered with purple bruises and red scabs. Chu Jiao had planned on cleaning them up before applying medicine on them.
Upon finally arriving beside the bathtub at a snail’s pace, she slowly took off her robes and immersed her entire body into the warm water, letting out a long sigh of relief.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe knew that nothing good would cout of the fateful encounter with the heroine. Even though she was living a difficult life in this world, she didn’t need to worry about food and clothing. The most painful experience she had ever experienced was the beating she had taken this noon.
From now on, whenever she saw the female lead, she was going to hide a bit farther back to not get caught in an accident.
Chu Jiao made up her resolve once again.
She took the soap from the side and gently rubbed it on her aching body.
Having gone through several worlds already, she had grown accustomed to bathing in this kind of bathtub. The wooden bucket that reached upto half the height of a regular person was deep enough for her shoulders to be submerged in the water, nearly enveloping her body. With only her two arms exposed, Chu Jiao washed off the dirt left on her body little by little.
On the other hand, the Sixth Prince, who had originally walked into the room with the intention to help his little eunuch, saw this alluring scene through the screens.
Fair white arms and a slender neck. The little eunuch’s hair, which had always been tightly coiled in the past, was now free and let down, all draping on one delicate shoulder. Her profile was delicate and calm, with a touch of perseverance and toughness that was noticeably different from that of the other servants. It seemed as if nothing could knock her down.
Jing Chen’s footsteps paused, staring at the beautiful image in front of him with bated breath.
It looked like she was perfectly fine and could handle matters all by herself, so he should probably return.
Logical reasoning told Jing Chen as such, but his feet seemed to be nailed to the spot, his eyes unable to shift away from the sight.
He greedily watched the little eunuch wash ‘his’ whole body with ‘his’ back to him, and even let his mind wonder how ‘he’ was rubbing ‘his’ body below the water inside the tub, where his eyes couldn’t reach ‘him.’
Tseemed to stagnate, until the light sound of splashes pulled Jing Chen’s thoughts back to reality.
The person in the room suddenly stood up and turned ‘his’ back to the peeping youth, showing off a small area of ‘his’ back.
I’m only taking a look at ‘his’ injury.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJing Chen thought this, but he didn’t look away, catching a clear sight of the little eunuch’s thin shoulders and slender back, then moving onto his willow-like waist, all the way until he could see the little eunuch’s bruised and swollen buttocks.
As expected… It looked very serious.
He had to ensure ‘he’ would apply the ointment properly.
Jing Chen watched fixatedly, but thought this in his heart.
However, in the next moment, he forgot what he was about to do and even forgot how to breathe.
Because, the person with ‘his’ back to him suddenly turned around to get ‘his’ clothes.
And, her curvaceous figure was so straightforwardly completely exposed to youth’s eyes.
