After they finished their meal, Shu Wan quickly asked Huo Zhengye to leave, fearing that he would have to work again.

Shu Wan leaned against the door frame, said goodbye to Huo Zhengye, and then closed the door.

Huo Zhengye withdrew his gaze and walked back step by step. When he got home, he looked at the dark house. It was quiet and lonely, which was very different from the hustle and bustle just now.

Huo Zheng shook his head to get rid of the inexplicable emotions, washed his face and body, and fell into a deep sleep.

On the other side, Shu Wan was packing things in the house when someone knocked on the door.

"Sister-in-law, is my brother injured?" Huo Miaoyue asked.

Shu Wan nodded.

Huo Miaoyue leaned against the door frame and asked hesitantly, "How about letting my brother move in and I move out?"

Her sister-in-law shamelessly lived with her sister-in-law, causing her sister-in-law and cousin to separate, especially since her cousin was injured and needed more care. So today she mustered up the courage to come and ask.

"No need. I told you it's not safe for a little girl to live alone outside." Shu Wan walked up to her and touched her head.

Huo Miaoyue felt a lump in her throat and nodded.

"I will take good care of your cousin." Shu Wan said.

"Thank you, sister-in-law."

Shu Wan went to Huo Zhengye's house every day to apply medicine for him, and the wound on Huo Zhengye's back had visibly improved a lot.

"The wound on your back has almost scabbed over. You don't need to apply medicine anymore."

Shu Wan put down the ointment and said.

Huo Zhengye was shirtless, with his back to Shu Wan. "I don't think I'm well yet. Let's go for a few more days."

Shu Wan: ...

"We agreed before that after your injury heals, we'll be neighbors." Shu Wan stood up, put on her coat and was about to leave.

Huo Zhengye panicked and stood in front of Shu Wan without even having time to put on his clothes.

"I don't mean to take advantage of you. I can't see the wound on your back, so I said that." Huo Zhengye carefully paid attention to Shu Wan's expression, fearing that she would be angry.

Their relationship has eased a lot in the past few days, and she is not so repulsive to him. If Shu Wan gets angry, their progress will go back to the pre-liberation era overnight.

Shu Wan's expression softened, and it was obvious that she had heard it. She had misunderstood.

When Shu Wan came to her senses, she saw Huo Zhengye standing in front of her with his bare chest. At a glance, she could see his mermaid line and eight-pack abs. His figure was more standard than the male models she saw today, as if he was sculpted.

Shu Wan blushed, "You are not wearing any clothes."

Hearing this, Huo Zhengye grabbed his clothes and put them on. As he was putting them on, he inexplicably found someone staring at him.

Huo Zhengye paused, and his next movements were slower.

Shu Wan glanced at Huo Zhengye's figure. It was a really good figure, but it was a pity that she could only look at it but not touch it or possess it.

Destined to be apart!

Shu Wan reluctantly turned her eyes away and stopped looking. The more she looked, the more heartbroken she felt!

Huo Zhengye was still thinking about how to get closer to Shu Wan, when he felt Shu Wan's eyes change and she pulled away from him mercilessly. This was the second time this happened. What was Shu Wan hiding?

His intuition told him that this matter was very important and might very well determine Shu Wan's attitude.

"Does what you said last time still count?" Huo Zhengye suddenly said.

Shu Wan was stunned, "What?"

"You promised to go shopping with me."

Shu Wan remembered and showed a trace of embarrassment on her face, "Of course, I'll accompany you whenever you go."
