Starry Sky Railway: The Slacking Sword Saint is Keeped by Fu Xuan

Fu Xuan gave a soft hum and silently clenched the outstretched hand tightly.

I'm home...

Chapter 151 The End of Peace and the Beginning of Turmoil (4k)

"hey-hey…"

A strange laugh echoed in the bright room. Jing Yuan paused slightly and turned to look.

He stood at the door for a few moments, hesitated, and finally knocked.

"May I come in?"

There was a moment of silence in the room, followed by a rustling sound of something being rummaged through.

puff~

"Oops..."

A soft groan of pain rang out, and Jing Yuan's brow twitched upon hearing it. He quickly asked, "Did you fall? I'm coming in!"

Just as he was about to push the door open, the door was opened by the person inside first.

With her hair still wet, Little Dragon Girl frowned, pursed her lips, and kept rubbing one foot against the other as if she was enduring something.

"What... are you doing?"

It hurts!

Bai Lu's face was tense. He had suddenly called her name, and when she got out of bed, she slipped and fell. To make matters worse, she was in such a hurry that she bumped into a chair...

It hurt her so much!

Jingyuan glanced curiously at the creature, which had clearly just finished bathing and whose face was still flushed pink from the water.

I glanced inside again.

There's nothing strange about it...

He was immediately puzzled. "What were you doing just now? Why were you in such a hurry?"

"Reading... Is something the matter?"

Bai Lu responded somewhat awkwardly.

"It's nothing, I just came to check on you since you weren't asleep yet..." Jing Yuan said slowly, his eyes suddenly catching sight of her bare little feet.

This guy actually opened the door without wearing shoes, and... well, there seems to be a red mark on his skin.

He raised an eyebrow, ignoring Bai Lu's reaction, and bent down to pick her up.

"General, what are you doing?!"

Bai Lu's heart skipped a beat, and she subconsciously struggled for a moment, her pink face turning even redder.

"What are you doing..." Jing Yuan repeated, his gaze falling on her head and then glancing at her small feet with her toes twitching.

"I'll eat you up!"

“Eh…?!”

Bai Lu's eyes widened immediately.

...

"It's getting cold. Don't you know you should dry your hair right after showering? You came to open the door without even putting on your shoes... And you're a doctor? Don't you know how to take care of your health?"

Jingyuan patted her head while scolding her.

Bai Lu lowered her head and remained silent. She touched her feet with her little hand, and a flash of white light appeared. The redness on the spot where she had bumped her feet disappeared instantly.

Jingyuan sighed as he looked at her pitiful appearance. "Anyway, don't catch a cold... otherwise you'll still have to take medicine. That pesky problem of your little hands is going to be hard to cure..."

“I’m a doctor, of course I know…” Bai Lu retorted softly.

Jingyuan shook his head and continued to blow-dry her hair. She was small and spoke in a high-pitched voice, but she smelled wonderful.

"Are your feet dirty too?"

Putting away the fan, Jingyuan stood by the bed and glanced at her feet.

Bai Lu shook her dried hair, then touched her feet, picked them up and looked at them.

There was indeed some dust on it. She blinked, hugged her feet, and looked at Jing Yuan with pleading eyes.

Jing Yuan coughed lightly, but turned his head to look elsewhere.

This girl sometimes really doesn't feel any distance when she's with him, and she doesn't even know to be careful. She was hugging her legs... and her skirt was all flipped up.

He turned to leave, saying, "I'll have someone bring you a bucket of water to soak it again."

"and many more…"

Bai Lu suddenly stopped him, pursed her lips and looked at Jing Yuan with a charming smile, asking, "General, are you still coming?"

Jing Yuan chuckled and turned to look at her. "Weren't you a little unhappy to see me just now?"

"No..." she retorted softly, "Yanqing gave me a little book to read, and I was engrossed in it, which is why I was a little... impatient."

Jing Yuan smiled and asked, "Aren't you bothered now?"

"...I don't want to talk to you anymore!"

Bai Lu suddenly glared at him, burrowed into the blanket, turned over, and stopped looking at him.

"Your feet aren't clean yet..."

Jing Yuan sighed helplessly and walked over to sit down next to her.

Looking at the little dragon girl who was having a little tantrum, he felt more and more that he was raising a daughter.

"If you'd like, I can tell you another story later, how about that?"

"...What story should I tell?"

Bai Lu pouted and turned her head slightly to look at him out of the corner of her eye.

Jing Yuan smiled and reached out to brush the hair that had fallen across her face. "Tell me the stories I've experienced, seen, and heard... Do you want to hear them?"

She blinked, then rolled over completely onto her back, holding the cup to her face and turning her head to look at him.

"Can you talk about anything?"

"Anything! But..."

"Could you wash your little feet that got on the floor first?"

Jing Yuan smiled as he looked at her, his tone carrying a hint of helplessness, but the tenderness and doting expression was subtly revealed in his eyes.

Bai Lu looked at him, opened her small mouth and said, "Hurry up~"

Jing Yuan chuckled and casually pinched her chubby cheek. "Okay, I'll hurry!"

Bai Lu wrinkled her nose to express her dissatisfaction, but the general only found her cute.

The maids in the general's mansion were quite a handful. Just as they were about to go to rest, the general suddenly appeared out of the shadows, startling her so much that she almost dropped everything she was holding.

Immediately afterwards, she heard an adult call her to fetch a bucket of hot water, saying that she needed to wash her feet.

Her heart trembled again, knowing that the general had never had any special contact with them over the years.

And they never help me with bathing or washing up...

Thinking about the decadent lives of other people's masters, the difference is so great that it's hard to believe. Compared to them, the general seems like a saint without desires. The old butler said that the general once had a master, but that person has now left. The general always misses her, which is why he has never had any close contact with others. However, this makes his work a little easier.

But today, the general suddenly asked her to help wash his feet. Does this mean that her good luck is about to arrive?

After all, this was the first time in so many years, and the maid's heart couldn't help but flutter. She hurriedly went to fetch hot water.

then…

The maid washed Xiaolongnu's feet with a blank expression. Her fair and smooth skin was so enviable that it would drive anyone crazy. It was amazing how tender her feet were!

Bai Lu frowned, looking quite awkward, mainly because Jing Yuan was watching from the side, and she felt something was off about everything, and was also inexplicably embarrassed.

"Never mind, I'll do it myself. You go and rest!"

“This…” The maid paused for a moment, then turned to look at Jing Yuan.

He smiled faintly and nodded silently.

The maid stopped dreaming, responded, and withdrew, closing the door behind her. She sighed as she looked at the light inside.

Over the years, it seems that the woman who was closest to the general was the Little Dragon Girl in the story.

She didn't think her general had any special quirks, but she had a very complicated feeling about it.

"Ugh…"

Jingyuan, unaware of what the maid was thinking, sighed as he watched the Little Dragon Girl playing in the water.

"Once you've cleaned it up, hurry up and dry yourself off before going back to bed. If you make a mess, no one will come to clean it up for you now."

Bai Lu glanced at him, gave a soft snort, and raised her little face.

Jing Yuan found it somewhat amusing, shook his head helplessly, and stepped forward to lift her up.
