The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day

Bai Mowan felt a slight movement in her hands and immediately opened her eyes, looking up to see Xiao Jinxing awake, gazing at her with a tender smile.

"You're awake?" Bai Mowan was somewhat excited; she quickly sat up straight and asked with concern.

"Mmm."

"Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?"

"I'm okay," Xiao Jinxing said. "Just weak."

As he spoke, Xiao Jinxing tried to sit up.

"Don't move," said Bai Mowan urgently, "Your body is so badly injured, you must not move; any movement might agitate the wound."

Xiao Jinxing furrowed his brows.

Obviously, he had just moved a little, and indeed it had tugged at his wound.

The location of the wound—beyond just being a wound, it felt as if it was slashed deep inside—was unbearably painful.

"Does it hurt a lot?" Bai Mowan looked at Xiao Jinxing, her heart aching for him.

"No," Xiao Jinxing endured.

He did not want Bai Mowan to worry.

"Brother Xiao, do you know how scared I was last night?" Bai Mowan's eyes were brimming with tears, her gaze fixated on him, unwilling to look away.

"It's okay now," Xiao Jinxing bore the pain, comforting Bai Mowan.

"I was really afraid you would never wake up," Bai Mowan said, "even the Imperial Physician said your chances were slim..."

"But here I am, alright?" Xiao Jinxing smiled. "Last night, you took such good care of me."

"As long as you're fine, any hardship I face is bearable," Bai Mowan firmly said, "I was just scared you would never wake up. If that were to happen, I wouldn't want to live either."

"Silly girl," Xiao Jinxing said affectionately.

The two of them gazed at each other with deep affection.

Ye Qichi yawned, standing beside the screen.

It was now early morning.

He had come over to check on them himself.

Seeing that Xiao Jinxing was awake was enough.

She turned around, not wanting to disturb their sweet moments after the crisis, yawned again, and went back to the soft couch nearby to continue resting on her arms.

Behind the screen.

The Imperial Physician also woke up and hurried over to examine Xiao Jinxing.

Bai Mowan watched anxiously from the side.

After a long moment.

The Imperial Physician said, "Though His Highness Prince Chen is still weak, his life is no longer in danger. With proper rest, he will soon recover."

"That's good to hear," Bai Mowan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She had feared that Xiao Jinxing was just pretending to be well to keep her from worrying.

"Prince Chen has been seriously injured, it should be..." the Imperial Physician dared not finish the sentence about death, he paused, then said, "Fortunately, Princess Chen last night..."

"Right." Bai Mowan interrupted him before he could continue.

The Imperial Physician looked at Bai Mowan.

"Prince Chen hasn't eaten all day, wasn't a light porridge prepared? After eating, he also needs to take the medicine that has been prepared," Bai Mowan instructed the Imperial Physician.

The Imperial Physician naturally had a keen sense of awareness.

He well understood that General Bai did not want Prince Chen to know that it was the Princess's merit that he had survived.

Naturally, he wouldn't dare offend General Bai.

So he said respectfully, "I will go and get His Highness's breakfast and medication right away."

With that, he left.

Bai Mowan smiled warmly at Xiao Jinxing, "Be good and eat your breakfast, then drink your medicine."

"Mmm," Xiao Jinxing nodded.

He was naturally obedient to Bai Mowan.

A moment later.

The Imperial Physician brought the well-simmered soft porridge first.

Bai Mowan carefully helped Xiao Jinxing sit up from the bed, afraid of touching his wound again, her movements gentle, finally letting Xiao Jinxing lean against the headboard in a semi-seated position.

She personally took the bowl and spoon, and fed Xiao Jinxing the porridge herself.

Bai Mowan scooped a spoonful, gently blew on it to make sure the porridge was not hot, and then held it to Xiao Jinxing's mouth.

The care she took of Xiao Jinxing was meticulous, making it hard for him not to be moved.

Xiao Jinxing opened his mouth to eat.

His eyes full of the tenderness and consideration Bai Mowan showed him.

It reminded him of the past in the Imperial Palace, when he was still with the Empress Dowager, whenever he was bullied, it was also Bai Mowan who stayed by his side, taking such good care of him.

When Wu Xufan appeared before them, he saw the two of them, full of affectionate looks.

In Bai Mowan's eyes, there was only Xiao Jinxing.
