When Zhai Heng saw Liu Hui Ying stumble, his body reacted before he could stop himself. He rushed and caught the woman in his arms, he only did it because he did not want to watch Liu Hui Ying fall to the ground and break something but as soon as he reached and caught her in his arms, something inside him shivered and snapped as Liu Hui Ying’s soft body fell into his arms.

Under the moonlight, a man and woman stood together if they were seen by someone at this very moment many scandals would have broken throughout the entire palace the very night.

Liu Hui Ying too did not expect something like this to happen, she was stunned and her entire mind was dazed but then suddenly she felt her skin go itchy causing her to jump from Zhai Heng’s arms. She rushed to the water barrels that were full of water and then started to wash her skin as it turned an angry red.

Seeing her actions Zhai Heng was shocked but then his lips curled in a mocking sneer. Was she that disgusted by his touch? Why just because he did not look as good as Zhai Tianyu?

But before he could say anything, he noticed Liu Hui Ying’s skin and face that was slowly turning red her face getting swollen, seeing this he was surprised and only then did he remember that Liu Hui Ying was allergic to all kind of men, she was not washing her skin because he touched her. She was washing herself because she was allergic to all men, he did not know why this small thing caused his heart to suddenly get lightened as he looked at Liu Hui Ying who was rubbing her skin with water.

He cleared his throat and then took out calming balm from his pocket that he carried with him everywhere and stretched his hand out while asking Liu Hui Ying to take it from him. ” Here, this is an ointment that I brought from the Xiang province, it’s supposed to ease itching and rashes, try to apply it on your skin, maybe it will help.”

Since Liu Hui Ying was not disgusted by just him and was disgusted by the entire male population, he could at least treat her with cordiality. After all, she was better than most women who treated Zhai Tianyu like he was a treasure while he was a monster who came to ruin them.

Liu Hui Ying glanced at the small wooden box and then looked at Zhai Heng with confusion in her eyes before she said, ” I cannot use what is touched by a man.”

.....

” You don’t have to worry about this, I did not use this box…it’s fairly new and yet to be opened,” Zhai Heng replied as he looked at Liu Hui Ying whose skin was getting redder and redder, he did know that she was allergic to men but never did he once think that she would be this allergic to a man. Her entire skin was turning red as if she was being slowly cooked in a pot, seeing her getting sick like this he could not help but say, ” You should take this lest you get even sicker. I am telling you that this is really good ointment when it comes to treating rashes.”

Liu Hui Ying did not believe a word that he said but since she did not have any other choice, she took the small box of ointment from Zhai Heng and carefully opened its lid. As soon as she opened it, the scent of medical herbs filled the air and she raised her head to look at Zhai Heng, it was just as he said the box was untouched and he hasn’t even swiped his finger on the ointment, it was completely untouched and totally clean.

” Are you really going to believe what he is saying?” Li Gang looked at Liu Hui Ying who was actually holding the box of ointment handed by Zhai Heng, seeing her act so naively, Li Gang was speechless. ” Have you forgotten what the boys of your school did when they found out that you were allergic to men?”

When Liu Hui Ying was young and without a family to support her, she joined a public school with the help of government policies that allowed talent students to win scholarships back then the boys of the public school would bully Liu Hui Ying because they all thought that she was using their hard-earned money that their parents paid through taxes.

Of course, this was told to them by their parents who asked their sons to stay away from Liu Hui Ying because she was an orphan and her past was not clean. During that time, the boys of the school found out that she was allergic to men, back then Liu Hui Ying was naive and believed one of the boys who said that he wanted to save her but the medicine that he gave only made her allergic reactions worse.

Days later when Liu Hui Ying returned to school, she heard the boy joke about her condition with the rest of the boys who were responsible for bullying her, ever since she has never trusted any man.

Liu Hui Ying looked at the ointment that was in her hands and hesitated, should she really trust this man? He has made no effort to hide his hatred for her, what if this was his plan to hurt her? After all, no man was good …they could not be trusted!

Just as she was thinking about this, a long stick reached out and then scooped out a small ointment from the box, surprised Liu Hui Ying raised her head and turned to look at Zhai Heng who very calmly brushed his fingers at the edge of the stick that had the ointment on it and then rubbed it on his face instead of his wrist and hands.

He did not say anything for a few seconds and waited for the ointment to be soaked in by his skin, only then he turned to look at Liu Hui Ying and said, “It’s safe your majesty.”

Liu Hui Ying looked at him and then scoffed with a playful smile as she scooped a generous amount of ointment with her fingers and then said, ” Now that I am looking at you, you look much pleasing to the eyes.”

And when Zhai Heng saw that teasing smile, his heart skipped a beat for the first time as his cold heart slowly started to warm up and pump again.
