Chapter 729 - I Love a Beauty (2/2)

He was so nice to her, but she wanted to use him.

Mo Qian’er despised herself.

Xiao Xiao returned after giving the instructions. “Lie down for a while. They’ll get things ready. Don’t get out of bed now. You’ll catch a cold.”

Mo Qian’er lay down obediently. “Mr. Xiao, you can go back first. I’m fine now. The maids will take care of me.”

Xiao Xiao sat by the bed and looked at her gently. “Are you afraid of ruining my reputation, or do you really hate me being here?”

Mo Qian’er shook her head. “No… I… I don’t. Why would I hate you? You’re so nice to me…”

“If you don’t hate me, then let me stay here. This is my own wish.” Xiao Xiao’s eyes turned deep.

Mo Qian’er, however, was worried that she really would implicate him, and didn’t notice the change.

“Mr. Xiao, please go back. If the crown prince finds out, it’ll be hard for you in the future. I don’t want to implicate you.”

Xiao Xiao smiled. “Isn’t the whole point for him to know? Even if you didn’t drag me in, I would do it myself. Haven’t you ever wondered why I’m willing to help you?”

Mo Qian’er’s eyes widened. “You…”

The corner of Xiao Xiao’s lips twitched. “Miss Qian’er, you probably don’t know how good you are. I don’t want to be coa.r.s.e; I’m unwilling to part with a beauty.”

Mo Qian’er swallowed. She didn’t know what he meant, but she sensed that Xiao Xiao wasn’t treating her purely as a doctor.

That was right. Why hadn’t she thought of why Xiao Xiao would agree to do such a thing?
