Super Sweet, 100\% Honeymoon

Chapter 417: Looking for a Girl Who Once Used the Name Susan

In the distance, Chi Niannian watched Ou Jue and Xia Xiyan, lowering her eyes to hide a trace of sorrow.If she hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, she simply wouldn’t believe it—Ou Jue would risk his life for Xiyan without hesitation.

——Here’s the cute little dividing line——

Following along to the scene, the Ou Family’s private doctor was busy cleaning Ou Jue’s wounds.

"Young Master, I need to apply some antiseptic. It might hurt a little."

Ou Jue gave a faint "Mm" without much reaction.

A cotton swab pressed down on the nearly mangled wound.

"Ah—"

"Xia Xiyan!" Ou Jue turned to look at the girl shrinking beside him. "I’m the one getting treated, why are you screaming?"

"B-but I’m just scared," Xiyan shrank behind him, biting her lower lip as she looked at the wound on Ou Jue’s arm with unbearable heartache.

Her pretty brows furrowed, her face filled with worry.

She really wanted to watch the doctor apply antiseptic and dress his wound.

But somehow, she couldn’t bring herself to look.

Ahhhh, so conflicted...

"Idiot!" Ou Jue said, then covered Xiyan’s eyes with his uninjured hand.

He turned back to the doctor and ordered, "Get it done quickly."

The doctor hesitated. "If I rush, it might hurt more..."

"I said hurry up." He didn’t want to see this idiot frowning anymore.

Alright then.

The doctor nodded and sped up his movements as he applied the medication.

Ou Jue remained silent the entire time, his chiseled jawline visibly tense.

Finally, the wound was properly dressed.

Xiyan looked at him with concern. "Does it hurt?"

"It’s within tolerable limits." Ou Jue’s expression was indifferent.

"You’re amazing!" If it were me, I’d definitely be crying out like crazy.

Those four words unexpectedly pleased Ou Jue.

But the Demon King’s expression remained as calm as ever. "What did you say?"

"I said you’re amazing!"

"Still didn’t catch it." Ou Jue tilted his head, leaning closer to Xiyan’s ear. "Say it again."

Xiyan finally realized what was happening and her little face turned red.

Are you kidding me?! I compliment you and now you want to act all childish? Do you want to go stratospheric or something?!

The family doctor looked at his young master and Xiyan interacting with a complicated expression.

No, no, this definitely isn’t the intimidating, commanding Young Master Ou I know... I must be blind.

-

Xiyan stared at the well-defined profile of Ou Jue’s face. "So you stayed back a year in school because of your mom?"

"Mm." Ou Jue pulled Xiyan into his arms, burying his handsome face in the curve of her neck, completely looking like he depended on her. "These past years, I’ve been searching for someone.

That person is extremely important to my mom and to the entire Ou Family.

In my second year of high school, I flew to S Country and spent a year trying to find out about her whereabouts."

But unfortunately, there was no success.

Throughout that year, no matter how diligently Ou Jue followed the leads in his hands to search for this person, he found nothing.

"Huh? Who is she?" Xiyan asked curiously.

"The information is very limited, all I know is her name—Susan."

Susan...

A woman’s name.

Xiyan bit her lower lip and asked hesitantly, "How old is she? And why are you looking for her?"

Ou Jue’s lips curved faintly as he lifted her chin. "Jealous, are we?"

"I am not!" Xiyan stubbornly stuck out her small chin.

"Admit you’re jealous, and I’ll tell you."

"Fine! I’m jealous, okay? Now tell me."

"..." Ou Jue looked speechlessly at the little girl in his arms. "Xia Xiyan, could you at least show some sincerity?"

"Come on, tell me already!" Xiyan’s curiosity was completely piqued by now, okay?
