Wen Xinya could not help but be shocked, for “Seventeenth Note” was a precious gem to collectors from all over the world, and it was said that a painting adapted from it was auctioned off at an exorbitant price of 300 million yuan!
Besides, that particular auction took place several years ago.
In recent years, those collections had appreciated trendously in value and she reckoned that it was definitely worth more than the originally auctioned price.
Duke Moville is really generous. He actually paid such a huge price just to give Si Yiyan a reasonable explanation and appease .
Despite the fact that Duke Moville was very sincere in his apology, Si Yiyan was still unsatisfied and he remained silent while pursing his lips.
Wen Xinya tugged his sleeve and said with a grin, “Rex has always doted on greatly and he can’t stand seeing get hurt. We’ve embarrassed ourselves in front of you, Duke Moville. My injuries are not that severe, I’ll be fine after applying so dication for a few days.”
It simply ant that she had accepted Duke Moville’s apology and she made sure not to say anything to embarrass Duke Moville.
Duke Moville imdiately instructed his servants to get the items.
At this mont, the sounds of the door being knocked could be heard. It was the doctor.
Duke Moville frantically allowed the doctor to enter the room.
After checking the wound on Wen Xinya’s arm, the doctor said, “Fortunately, only the skin surface has been damaged and her bones and ligants are still intact. However, Miss Bella’s skin is very delicate and her wound has worsened a little because it wasn’t treated in ti.”
The doctor’s words made Si Yiyan purse his lips. “How long will it take for her wounds to heal with proper treatnt?”
Although her wounds were less severe than he had imagined, he still felt heartbroken because she had gotten wounded. It was not his first ti feeling that way and hence, he was extrely upset and angered by Avrora’s actions. He had already begun thinking about how he should deal with her.
The doctor answered, “It will take about a week or so.”
Her injury was much less severe compared to the ones that Avrora had suffered. Avrora had sprained her ankle and suffered nurous abrasions after falling off the horse. She would probably take at least a month to completely recover.
Si Yiyan’s eyes turned gloomy.
Wen Xinya frantically said, “Don’t worry, I’m alright. This wound may look terrifying, but it doesn’t hurt much. Look at ... does it look like it hurts at all?”
She was lying. Getting whipped was considered to be the worst punishnt of all, and Avrora had whipped her with all her might. In fact, her wound had been hurting terribly, and it felt as if she had been caned and her skin had been ripped apart. Now, there was a stinging pain that made her feel like soone had poured chili water onto her wound.
She had been trying her best to bear with the pain because she was afraid that Si Yiyan would find out. To her surprise, Si Yiyan was extrely sharp and he found out about it in no ti!
After hearing her words, Si Yiyan’s body stiffened and he asked while pointing at his chest, “I know... whether or not your wound hurts!”
“I...” Wen Xinya could no longer say anything to appease him and her throat turned dry all of a sudden.
She had in fact only suffered abrasions that were much less severe than they seed on the surface. Although her skin had been ripped apart, the wound was not as severe as those left behind by a real whip.
Duke Moville said, “I do have so premium quality dicated cream. I can guarantee that your wound will heal without any scars after applying it, Miss Bella.”
Duke Moville gazed at the two of them apologetically. Their masks had covered the emotions on their faces, though it was obvious that Si Yiyan was incredibly upset. It seems that the rumor about Lucifer’s leaders being hopeless romantics is real.
A sullen expression ford on his face.
If that’s the case, this Miss Bella is going to beco the greatest obstruction in the marriage between the Moville Family and Lucifer.
Wen Xinya smiled and said, “Thank you very much, Duke Moville.”
Soon, the dicated cream was sent to them.
Just as the doctor was about to grab it, Si Yiyan beat him to it and grabbed the jade bottle with his long and slender fingers. His bones were defined and they looked rigid.
Si Yiyan exclaid coldly, “Doctor, I’ll clean her wound and apply the dicated cream for her!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Duke Moville raised his brows and thought to himself, He actually cares so much about her?
Si Yiyan ignored the doctor’s fear and Duke Moville’s astonishnt. He felt that it would be better for him to clean her wounds himself.
Si Yiyan placed her arm on his lap and took out the disinfectant cotton swab, after which he began cleaning the surrounding skin of her wound carefully, making sure to be as gentle and error-free as he could.
“Ah!” Despite the fact that Si Yiyan was being extrely careful, the disinfectant liquid still made Wen Xinya’s wound sting unbearably, so much that her arm shivered involuntarily.
“Does it hurt a lot? I’ll be gentler.” Si Yiyan could imagine her current facial expression and how pale she must be. He then applied lesser pressure and even blew air onto her wound every now and then in a bid to soothe her pain.
Wen Xinya could not help but be amused, for no amount of gentleness could take away the pain caused by the alcohol.
His blowing actions reminded her of the ti when her childhood neighbor’s mother accidentally cut herself while cutting vegetables, after which her neighbor held onto her hand and said, “Mommy, your wound won’t hurt after blowing on it!”
Just like Si Yiyan, her neighbor carefully blew so air on her mother’s wounds to soothe her pain.
In fact, it was just words that adults used to use to coax children. However, children began to believe that doing so could cure illnesses.
However, she was still incredibly touched by his heartwarming gesture.
Soon, the wound was cleaned, after which Si Yiyan applied Duke Moville’s dicated cream onto her wound. The dicated cream was indeed rather effective and it provided a minty sensation that alleviated her pain.
After cleaning her wound, Si Yiyan decided to leave. “Bella’s injured. We shan’t stay any longer, then. Please excuse us.”
It would take about half an hour to get back to his mansion. Hence, he decided to clean Wen Xinya’s wound at the residence before heading back.
It was already half-past ten and the banquet had already been going on for four hours. Yet, nothing fruitful ca out of it. However, Duke Moville had no reason to make him stay any longer now that things had already co to his. Hence, he had no choice but to say, “There’s been so mistakes and slip-ups during the banquet today. Please forgive , Rex.”
The two of them proceeded to exchange so words of courtesy before Si Yiyan took Wen Xinya away eagerly.
