After finally enduring the changing of the wound dressing, Hua Manman felt the draining exhaustion of a narrow escape.
She hurriedly dressed, pressing a hand to her slightly flushed cheeks. After composing herself, she dragged her jelly-like limbs off the bed.
"Prince, since the dressing has been changed, I will not disturb your rest any longer. I will take my leave now and come see you another day."
But Li Ji said, "I'm quite bored being here all alone. Stay and talk with me."
'The boss has given an order. How could a mere employee like me have the right to refuse?'
She quickly put on a look of being overwhelmed by the favor.
"As long as the Prince does not find me bothersome, I am willing to stay by your side for a lifetime."
Li Ji was satisfied with her performance and smiled faintly.
"As you wish."
To avoid reopening her wound, Hua Manman had no choice but to return to the daybed and continue lying on her stomach.
