Song Ning moved a stool and sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the person on the bed. She thought and thought, but she just couldn't figure out why this person had blocked that blow for her back then.

Although the person is not dead, they have been lying in bed for two days.

My back was hit by a large rock, quite hard, leaving it bloody and mangled. I still can't lie flat.

Song Ning sat by the bedside, talking to him and taking care of him. Xie Linzhou was injured while saving her, so it wouldn't be too much for her to stay and take care of him, let alone be his slave.

Xie Linzhou felt uncomfortable after lying down for so long, so he turned to his side and frowned slightly.

Upon seeing this, Song Ning immediately asked anxiously, "What's wrong? Does it hurt again?" As she spoke, she stepped forward to check the injury on his back.

Xie Linzhou seemed quite pleased, frowning as he smiled: "Worried about me?"

Song Ning glanced at him. Ever since Xie Linzhou shielded her from disaster, his speech had changed after he woke up. He would say things like this to tease her.

Logically speaking, he injured his back, not his brain.

"General Xie, you were injured because of me, shouldn't I be worried about you?"

It would be strange if I wasn't worried.

Thinking of this, Song Ning said earnestly, "General Xie, next time something like this happens, could you please stay away? Don't rush forward again."

Honestly, when she saw Xie Linzhou standing in front of her, her heart was in her throat.

At that moment, her only thought was that Xie Linzhou was really too reckless.

She was about to hide in her spatial dimension, thinking that even if someone saw her, she could always find an excuse to cover it up. But before she even entered the space, Xie Linzhou pounced on her.

If she actually enters the space now, wouldn't Xie Linzhou seem even more foolish?

There was no other way; at that time, Song Ning couldn't avoid it no matter what she said.

Then, a large rock slammed into Xie Linzhou's back, splattering blood on the spot.

Song Ning sighed; she was truly exasperated.

Now look what's happened; this back injury won't heal for at least ten days to two weeks.

Xie Linzhou's eyes narrowed slightly, but a smile remained on his lips. Although he was injured, he had not come away empty-handed.

Seeing that Xie Linzhou remained indifferent, Song Ning became unhappy.

"General Xie, are you even listening to me?"

"Okay, go ahead, I'm listening."

Song Ning: ......

Well, he's injured right now, so it's not unreasonable to let him have his way.

Zhang Ping brought the medicine over and was about to go forward to feed it to his young master when he suddenly received Xie Linzhou's dark gaze and immediately realized what was happening.

Oh right, now this kind of thing needs to be handled by Miss Song.

After putting down the medicine bowl, Zhang Ping smiled and said, "Miss Song, I have other things to do. I'll trouble you to take care of the young master and make sure he drinks his medicine."

"Okay, leave it to me."

Xie Linzhou couldn't get up and could only lie face down. Song Ning put a pillow under his chest, scooped up a spoonful of medicine, blew on it, and then put it to Xie Linzhou's mouth.

Chinese medicine is not only bitter, but also smells bad. Song Ning could hardly stand the smell alone.

Xie Linzhou looked up at her and chuckled, "I'm the one who took the medicine, not you."

"This medicine really smells awful."

Upon hearing this, Xie Linzhou immediately picked up the bowl and drank the medicine in it in one gulp.

"Now it doesn't smell bad."

Song Ning blinked, not reacting for a moment. Xie Linzhou, this person...

After taking the medicine, Song Ning handed Xie Linzhou a small cup of water. She wanted to apply medicine to the wound on his back and drink some spring water to relieve the pain.

Xie Linzhou was completely naked from the waist up. He gently lifted the thin blanket, and the injuries on his back were still shocking.

"Lie down properly, I'll apply the medicine for you."

Xie Linzhou lay there very obediently, not moving an inch.

Song Ning cleaned up the bloodstains that had seeped out around him, then gently poured the medicine on, not daring to even blink.

Xie Linzhou was initially very obedient and didn't move, but Song Ning was so focused on applying the medicine that her face and back were so close together, and her warm breath made Xie Linzhou feel a little restless.

"Tsk, don't move."

The girl's serious voice rang out, and Xie Linzhou coughed lightly. He wasn't wearing a shirt on, and Song Ning wasn't even embarrassed?

"You...have applied medicine like this to other people before?"

No, you're the first one.

"Then...then how did you..."

How can I be so at ease?

Song Ning chuckled: "So what if you're not wearing a shirt? What's so special about that?"

Song Ning didn't take it seriously, but Xie Linzhou was not calm after hearing this.

Isn't that surprising? Shouldn't a normal girl blush so much that she can't even speak properly when she sees a man's body?

Xie Linzhou came to the conclusion that Song Ning had seen other men's bodies, and not just one.

Her good mood vanished completely, and she remained silent with a dark expression.

Song Ning didn't realize there was anything wrong with what she had just said. After applying the medicine, she carefully covered herself with the blanket.

"Alright, the medicine is applied. You should get some rest."

After settling Xie Linzhou in, Song Ning had just stepped out of the house when someone came to deliver a message: "Miss Song, there is a young master surnamed Lin looking for you outside."

"Okay, I'll go right away."

Her restaurant has started renovations these past few days, and she needs to go check it out.

Lin Wenlu insisted on becoming her manager, and Madam He couldn't control him anymore.

Since the Lin family had given their consent, Song Ning naturally agreed, as she was just wondering where to find the shopkeeper anyway.

Xie Linzhou slept until it was almost dark. The people outside heard the noise and quickly came into the room: "Is the young master awake? We'll set the table for dinner right away."

Where is Song Ning?
