Forced to Date a Big Shot - Chapter 502
Chapter 502: Can’t Bathe Alone
In school.
In the infirmary, although she had promised Xiang Huai not to have any intimate physical contact with Ji Silin, this was a special occasion.
Moreover, she was a patient and he was a doctor, so Xue Xi sat there obediently.
Not wanting her to have a hard time raising her hand, Ji Silin half-knelt on the ground the entire time and helped her clean her wound bit by bit. He had his glasses on, and although his movements were so gentle that she almost couldn’t feel his touch, the anti-inflammatory medicine still hurt when it touched her wound.
Xue Xi knew that Ji Silin was also nervous, so she held back her words. Even someone like her, who did not sweat much during military training, was sweating at this moment.
Fortunately, the anesthesia helped ease the pain.
An hour later, the wounds on her hand were treated. There were twelve and three stitches on each finger.
She looked at her hand wrapped in white gauze and did not speak, but Ji Silin adjusted his glasses and stood up.
When he stood up, his legs were a little unstable. After all, he had been kneeling there motionlessly for more than an hour and his legs were numb. However, after he slowed down his movements, he stood still without batting an eyelid. Then, he said gently, “I used dissolvable threat, so the stitches don’t need to be removed. It won’t leave a scar.”
Xue Xi nodded.
She didn’t really care about this. Instead, she asked, “Will my fingers be as agile as before?”
She was fast at learning things, and what she feared most was becoming slow.
If her fingers became no longer as sensitive as before, she might not get used to it.
Ji Silin smiled. “Be more confident in me.”
Xue Xi widened her eyes out of habit.
When Ji Silin saw her dazed look, he could not help but reach out to touch her head. However, just as he was about to lift his hand up, he thought of her words. Hence, he paused his hand in midair and slowly lowered it.
Some habits were hard to change after so many years.
But even if he felt that it was impossible, he still had to change it.
As he thought about this, Ji Silin lowered his eyes to hide his worries and said in a mellow voice, “Although I’m a psychiatrist, my surgery skills are not bad either. Don’t worry.”
Xue Xi nodded and stood up to walk out. Ji Silin followed behind her and asked, “Xixi, was it worth it?”
Xue Xi looked at him.
Ji Silin said, “Those people don’t trust you and think you’re lying. They even attacked you before the incident happened. Are they worth your time?”
Xue Xi fell silent.
Ever since she was young, she had always been a solitary, cold, and distant person. She had always been indifferent to human relationships. In fact, even she herself didn’t know what was going on. When she saw her classmate in trouble, she had attacked.
As for whether it was worth it… she had never thought about that.
Xue Xi said, “Brother Silin, I don’t care about their slander or their praise. I only do what I think is right. I hope that when I think about it in the future, I can say that I have a clear conscience.”
In this world, good and evil had always been temporary.
Ji Silin was stunned for a moment before chuckling. He looked at Xue Xi and said, “You’ve grown up and have your own thoughts.”
She was also getting further away from him.
There was a hint of melancholy in Ji Silin’s eyes, but he quickly concealed it and reminded her, “Alright, remember to change your dressing for the next few days. Also, don’t let your wound get wet. Eat lightly these next few days and don’t eat seafood or anything like that. Rest well and recuperate well.”
Xue Xi nodded. “Okay.”
Ji Silin was about to send her back to the dormitory when he suddenly saw a straight figure standing in the darkness. He paused and stopped in time.
He stood under the streetlight. The light was bright.
That person stood in the darkness, his entire body filled with killing intent and viciousness. A bloodthirsty aura rippled out like he was a demon from hell.
Ji Silin was shocked.
He didn’t know what he had done to make him feel so murderous.
The two of them looked into each other’s eyes, each with their own thoughts.
After staring at each other for ten seconds, Ji Silin finally said, “I still have a patient, I won’t send you off.”
Xue Xi nodded. “Okay.”
Ji Silin then turned his head and left slowly.
Xue Xi would never feel reluctant. After greeting him, she walked forward without any reluctance. After taking a few steps, she suddenly sensed something and turned to see Xiang Huai.
Xue Xi paused and asked in surprise, “Why are you here?”
Xiang Huai walked out from the darkness step by step. The man who had just severed four of Gu Yunqing’s fingers was full only of gentleness when she looked over.
He laughed. “I’ve been here the whole time.”
Xue Xi: “?”
Xiang Huai walked to her side and held her injured wrist. He raised her fingers and examined them carefully before heaving a sigh of relief. “That Ji guy is pretty skilled.”
Before Xue Xi could react, Xiang Huai hurriedly added, “I’m talking about his surgical skills, not any other skills.”
Xue Xi: “???”
What was this man talking about?
The corner of her lips twitched. Xiang Huai lowered his head and gently kissed the back of her hand before asking, “Little kid, does it hurt?”
The anesthesia was slowly losing its effect. There was definitely pain, but it was much better than just now. Xue Xi could endure it, so she replied, “It’s alright.”
Xiang Huai’s eyes drooped and he sighed. “But I’m in pain.”
His slender finger pointed at his chest. “It hurts here.”
Xue Xi: “?”
Xiang Huai continued, “It won’t hurt after you kiss me.”
Xue Xi: “…”
The corner of her lips twitched. She turned around and walked towards the dormitory. “I’m the one who’s injured!”
Why are you acting pitiful here?
Xiang Huai followed closely beside her. The man, who was half a head taller than her, chuckled. “Then I’ll kiss you once and you won’t feel pain anymore.”
Xue Xi: “…”
She’d better shut up. She couldn’t win against this wretched man!
After she took two more steps, Xiang Huai followed behind her and said, “Go back to the dormitory and pack your things.”
Xue Xi: “?”
Xiang Huai said slowly, “You can’t stay here for the next few days. Otherwise, how are you going to shower on such a hot day?”
Xue Xi: “?”
This person meant that she could not bathe alone. Then… who would help her?
