Chapter 659, Confidence

Li Hengyi looked at Xie Zhinuan.

He had consulted with Yuanbao on his dress, chosen his clothes carefully, bathed and burnt incense to suppress the stench of blood from his wounds before coming to the Xie Mansion.

Seeing Xie Zhinuan for the first time in a while, the chaos in Li Hengyi's heart slowly calmed down.

Her gaze was different now.

Although still somewhat naïve, there was an indescribable tenderness in it.

She was changing.

"You've been injured?" Xie Zhinuan asked.

Li Hengyi was slightly surprised, but he quickly nodded, "On the way back, I encountered an assassination attempt and suffered some minor injuries!"

He didn't want to miss the opportunity to appear vulnerable and be cared for.

Furthermore, since Xie Zhinuan had a soft heart, she would surely take extra care of him after seeing his injuries.

Yuanbao hurriedly said, "It's not just a little injury, my lord…"

"Yuanbao!" Li Hengyi said sternly, interrupting Yuanbao's attempt to exaggerate.
