After marrying the fierce god, her handsome young husband was pampered to the extreme.

Jiang Xiao didn't hear clearly, "What?"

Lin Siheng said, "I mean, it's a good thing you were here, otherwise I would definitely have been killed."

Jiang Xiao pursed her lips somewhat embarrassedly, "Well, it's also possible that I made a mistake."

Lin Siheng patted the little liar's head again; his soft hair felt surprisingly comfortable to touch.

"It's always better to be careful."

Jiang Xiao blushed, stammered, and didn't say anything more.

The doctor arrived quickly. He examined the ointment carefully and said, "There is indeed an extra ingredient called snake bone grass. If used on an injury, it will cause unstoppable bleeding, making the person suffer excruciating pain."

Xin Yu was shocked. "If my brother applies this ointment, won't he be doomed?!"

After receiving a definitive answer from the doctor, Xinyu felt a wave of fear.

That was close! He almost lost his brother.

Although my brother can be quite annoying at times, he's not always that bad, and sometimes he's even kind of handsome.

Jiang Xiao was surprised that he had actually done a good job. He secretly glanced at Lin Siheng and breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Siheng asked, "Is this snake bone grass common?"

The doctor said, "It's not common; it's usually only found in the deserts of the northern border."

Are they available within Yuezhou?

The doctor said, "They can be found near the desert."

Xin Yu was getting anxious because her brother kept getting off-topic, so she said, "Please make another box of ointment."

"I'll reconstitute it right away, Mr. Lin, please wait a moment," the doctor said.

Lin Siheng nodded, "Thank you for your trouble."

After the doctor left, Xinyu also started to walk out, but was stopped by her brother.

"Where are you going?"

Xinyu said, "I'm going to tell Uncle Xiao, there must be a traitor in our family!"

"Come back," Lin Siheng said. "This isn't urgent. Don't bother your stepfather."

"But! What if!"

Lin Siheng said, "Don't alert them. What if that traitor is more capable than our guards? They might turn on us and kill us all."

Upon hearing this, Xinyu calmed down and realized that her brother made sense, so she said, "Then let's go and catch him when you're better."

He suddenly remembered something else, "What if he's tampered with your medicine again!"

"Just find someone to keep an eye on it."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiao quickly replied, "I can! I promise I won't let anyone else touch your medicine."

Lin Siheng smiled and said, "So concerned about me?"

Sensing the teasing in the boy's tone, Jiang Xiao silently turned her back and placed the back of her hand on her cheek.

Cool down.

Xin Yu completely misunderstood her brother's sense of humor. "Brother! Be serious!"

"Okay, okay," Lin Siheng asked, "Do you remember who came today?"

This stumped Xinyu. There were many people coming and going in her brother's room today, with plenty of servants and maids, and she couldn't possibly recall anyone touching the ointment.

As early as when someone attempted to assassinate Gongyang Xun, Lin Siheng had already guessed that there was a traitor in his family.

They had only been back in Beijing for a few days, yet the people at Qianhe Villa not only knew where they were, but also knew exactly which room each person lived in.

This is either an inside job or something fishy is going on.

Lin Siheng had no recollection of the servants in his household and had no clues for the time being.

Xinyu racked her brains trying to think of something, when she heard her brother speak again.

"Think carefully about the new servants who have joined our household in the last few years."

"We'll have to check with the accounts department." Xin Yu, always on the same page, said, "I'll go right now."

Lin Siheng was exhausted and said, "Where are you going so late at night? Come back."

"Oh." Xinyu returned dejectedly.

The doctor prepared the ointment again, and Jiang Xiao was responsible for changing Lin Siheng's dressing.

Xinyu originally planned to change her brother's dressing herself.

But he was inexplicably glared at by his brother.

Then the ointment in my hand eventually ended up in Jiang Xiao's hands.

Xin Yu was still pondering in her heart whether she had treated her brother too badly in the past, to the point that her brother wanted Jiang Xiao to be his younger brother.

Xin Yu was a little jealous, then ran to her brother and fawned over him, her obsequiousness reaching unprecedented levels.

After finally getting ready, the young hero Huang Quan took a stroll in the courtyard. With nothing else to do late at night, he was just about to go find Gongyang Xun when he heard Gongyang Xun, a young man, shamelessly call out "Brother Yuan Yuan" in a high-pitched voice.

Lin Siheng: yue.

He looked down at Jiang Xiao, who had been following him, and said, "Now, try calling me 'brother' in a high-pitched voice."

Jiang Xiao didn't understand but did as she was told, "Brother~"

Lin Siheng: This tastes just right!

That was awesome!

But in Xin Yu's eyes, this scene was a perfect confirmation of her conjecture.

As expected, his brother has found another younger brother outside!

Upon thinking of this, Xin Yu immediately retorted, not to be outdone, "Brother~"

Lin Siheng got goosebumps. "Speak properly."

Xin Yu felt that her vocalization wasn't good enough, so she vocalized even more, "Brother~~"

Lin Siheng: "...What's wrong with you so late at night?"

Xin Yu got angry, "Hmph!"

Although she was angry, she didn't let go of her brother's hand.

"Let's go back."

Lin Siheng had no desire to listen to Gongyang Xun's madness late at night.

Although Gongyang Xun did not practice martial arts, he had learned the family's secret techniques from a young age and was still quite sharp-witted.

But Yuan Yuan knew nothing. He yawned and quietly accompanied Gong Yangxun as he fiddled with the mechanism.

The mechanical arts of Qianhe Manor have fallen into disuse. Gongyang Xun, due to his disability, is confined to his home every day, but he has managed to replicate many valuable items from the fragments left by his ancestors.

This assassination attempt taught Gongyang Xun a profound lesson.

You have to become stronger so you won't be bullied.

He couldn't rely on Lin Siheng to save him forever.

He has to save himself!

Make more traps and hidden weapons; if a crisis really comes, it can buy some time to escape.

Gongyang Xun forgot the time for a moment. Seeing that Yuan Yuan was sleepy, he quickly said, "Brother Yuan Yuan, I'm tired."

Yuan Yuan carried him to the bed, thinking of tidying up the table full of gear parts.

Then they heard Gongyang Xun say in a pitiful voice, "Brother Yuanyuan, I can't unbutton this shirt."

Yuan Yuan said, "I'll help you solve it."

Gongyang Xun's body was dry and brittle, unlike Lin Siheng's thin, smooth muscles, which were agile and full of power.

If Yuan Yuan saw him, she would definitely think his body was deformed and completely unappealing... Gong Yang thought to himself and suddenly felt inferior.

Yuan Yuan helped him undress halfway, but he grabbed his collar tightly, saying, "I... I can do it myself."

"I've seen all of your small frame before, why are you shy around me?" Yuan Yuan looked at him no differently than she would her other three younger brothers.

He quickly helped Gongyang change into his nightgown, saying, "It's almost midnight, go to sleep."

Because Lin Siheng was injured, Yuanyuan simply moved in with Gongyang Xun.

He grew up among a chaotic group of beggars, and later met Jiang Xiao and the others. The four of them depended on each other for survival, and often shared a tattered blanket.

Therefore, when I take care of Gongyang Xun now, I don't feel awkward even if we live together.

Gongyang Xun slept on the bed, while he slept on the small couch behind the screen.

He was open and honest, while only Gongyang Xun was awkward and hesitant.
