Xiang Yu felt a sharp pang in his heart hearing Han Xin say that it hurt. The sight of Han Xin in pain was unbearable. He quickly turned to the butler, who was struggling to get up, and demanded, "Get me a first aid kit."
The group of bodyguards, who bore several cuts and contusions, were flabbergasted. Compared to them, Han Xin wasn’t as injured, yet he was the one being pampered. They couldn’t help but wonder since when Han Xin had become so soft. This was the same man who got his arm dislocated in the past and didnt even flinch as he put it back in place himself. It was incredibly puzzling.
The butler, clutching his abdomen, staggered out of the office. Han Jing, unable to contain his anger any longer, yelled, "You ruined my family home, yet this is what you have to worry about?" His veins protruded at the sides of his neck and temples as he spat out his rage.
Xiang Yu suddenly asked, "Did you do this to him?" while pointing at the bruise on Han Xin’s face. Han Jing was stumped for words. It was as though Xiang Yu hadn’t heard what he said at all. He was so focused on Han Xin’s bruise like it was the only thing that mattered. Xiang Yu’s gaze was fierce and burning like he would burn a hole into Han Jing.
To him, Han Xin was as precious as gems. If he could lock him away safely in his palace he would, that way no one would lay a hand on his sweetheart ever again. Yet this man
... this vile old man had the audacity to strike him. Who gave him the right to touch this Demon King’s people? Han Jing might have brought Han Xin into this world, but he didn’t have the right to hit his man.
Xiang Yu suddenly got up in haste, an unsettling smile playing on his lips, and strode towards Han Jing, looking like he was about to kill someone. The room turned chaotic with the clan leaders yelling at him and others drawing their weapons. Han Jing was also fuming on the other side, foaming at the mouth in rage while the others held him down. In the chaos, Clan Leader Die, who had long grown cold, fell over the chair with a thud.
Before Xiang Yu could get his hands on Han Jing, Han Xin grabbed Xiang Yu’s wrist and pulled him back. Xiang Yu didn’t resist. He fell back and sat beside Han Xin, his expression still fierce, indicating he wasn’t done with Han Jing. Han Xin said in a calm tone, "Get Clan Leader Die out of here." The bodyguards hesitated before saying, "Yes, sir."
While they were carrying Clan Leader Die out of the room, Xiang Yu carefully disinfected Han Xin’s wound and applied the cream, his actions gentle and meticulous. The entire time, Han Xin stared at him like he was looking at the most precious thing in the world. Han Xin’s eyes reflected so much love that it was impossible to ignore. Xiang Yu put a band-aid on the bruise and said, "There, all done." ƒrēewebnovel.com
Han Xin bit his lower lip slightly, trying to fight the urge to kiss those lips. Xiang Yu leaned in close and asked, "You want to kiss me, don’t you?" Han Xin didn’t deny it. He wanted to do a lot more than that. Xiang Yu whispered back, "Wait until we are done here."
While taking care of his lover, he had been ignoring the chaos in the background. To him it was like white noise. Now that he was sure Han Xin was fine, he turned to the clan leaders who were still arguing and glaring at him. If these old men could eat him, they would devour him until there were no bones left.
