Inside the carriage, Xingxing took out a small medicine box containing ointment for bruise removal.
She bent down to hold Su Jin's leg.
Su Jin exerted force secretly, yet Xingxing still managed to place the leg on her knee.
Su Jin: "..."
She quickly said, "I'm fine."
"Wasn't the lady supposed to nurse her sprained ankle for several days?" Xingxing asked in confusion.
"Applying medicine early helps recover faster."
Su Jin felt mentally exhausted.
If deceiving others was only as easy as deceiving Xingxing.
Every time the bait was thrown, others kept watching, while this maid bit onto her hook, never letting go.
Su Jin put her foot down and said, "I didn't sprain my ankle."
Xingxing's eyes widened, "Then why did you deceive that little eunuch?"
After speaking, Xingxing added, "No, it was to deceive the Emperor."
Su Jin sighed lightly and said, "If I don't pretend to sprain my ankle, the Emperor may summon me into the Imperial Palace once I reach the Great Buddha Temple."
