But now that she's back, she won't be separated from Lu Chen again.

Lu Chen was in his fifties, and perhaps by then Shen Qiaoyue would also be dead, so he wouldn't live long.

Moreover, at this time, the average lifespan of the poor was only over forty years.

"Um... let me apply the medicine for you." Lu Chen came in with the medicine, closed the door, and then locked it.

After hearing this, Shen Qiaoyue, who was in a daze, realized what was happening and her ears started burning.

In his past life, he also offered to help her apply the medicine, only to be met with her angry outbursts.

This life is different now.

It would be too awkward to just ask him for help.

"If you're shy, you can cover yourself with the blanket and close your eyes. I'm afraid you won't be able to reach it by yourself." He said the same thing as in his past life.

After all, the two of them had already been intimate, so there was nothing to hide.

"Mmm." Shen Qiaoyue nodded, her face flushed.

Lu Chen himself blushed quite a bit; this was the first time he had ever encountered something like this.

When she lifted the covers and pulled up her nightgown, Shen Qiaoyue's heart pounded; she was so embarrassed.

Until the coolness arrived, a refreshing, icy feeling.

After applying the medicine with a flushed face, Lu Chen covered Shen Qiaoyue with a blanket.

"I've been staying home with you these past few days. I have three days of honeymoon leave. If you feel unwell, just let me know." Lu Chen didn't dare to be too enthusiastic.

After all, when they met at the Shen family for a blind date, Shen Qiaoyue had a cold expression the whole time.

During their two dates, Shen Qiaoyue said he was too enthusiastic, which she considered to be fawning over her, and she found it very offensive.

"Mmm, Lu Chen, can you stay with me a little longer?" Shen Qiaoyue just wanted to lean on Lu Chen, feeling that his presence was proof that she was alive.

Lu Chen's ears turned bright red after hearing this.

No wonder the female lead waited until she was fifty; it turns out he was the innocent, puppy-like type.

"I'm going to take a shower first; I smell like cooking oil all over myself," Lu Chen said, and walked out of the room to take a shower.

Shen Qiaoyue wondered if he had misunderstood something!

He was just resting, why did he go to take a shower?
