Chapter 40: A tiger in the heart, sniffing the rose

Yan Ye closed his eyes tightly, trying his best to suppress the sudden throbbing in his heart.

The feeling was more like an indescribable itch than pain. The warm breath sprayed on the injured area, as if a soft feather was brushing past, making it tingling and numb, with an unintentional seductive charm.

His black eyes were so deep that it was frightening at this moment, the muscles in his arms were tense, and his whole body was so hard that it felt cold.

"It's okay, just continue."

A hoarse voice sounded in Xu Xiaoyue's ears, and she tilted her head slightly to avoid the heat.

"Well, I'll bandage you now. I'll be gentle." Xu Xiaoyue picked up a roll of gauze from the tray next to her and gently wrapped it around the man's arm, circle after circle.

"Is it tight?" She looked at him with her round almond-shaped eyes, her eyes were so clear without any impurities of lust.

Yan Ye's Adam's apple rolled slightly, and a sound inadvertently leaked out from his thin lips, "It's not tight."

It was clearly a serious process of applying medicine, but at this moment Xu Xiaoyue's cheeks turned red involuntarily.

She secretly thought that the man's breathing sounded quite nice.

Xu Xiaoyue tried hard to stay calm and tied a beautiful bow on Yan Ye's arm.

"Okay, okay, that's not bad."

She raised her hands, looking relieved, and admired her masterpiece with great satisfaction.

Compared to the bow tie, what is more eye-catching is the man’s upper body full of hormones. While bandaging him, she could already feel the hard, bulging muscles on his arms, and his scorching body temperature, which seemed to be burning her palms.

He sat there with his upper body naked, and the bow on his arm looked like a joke, which reminded Xu Xiaoyue of a saying: Even if you have a tiger in your heart, you can still smell the roses.

In addition to the wound on his arm, the man also had some small scars on his back. Those scars were faint and almost unnoticeable without careful observation.

Xu Xiaoyue cast her eyes secretly at the man. There was very little description of him in the book. She only knew that he later became extremely powerful.

But if you think about it carefully, perhaps, it is precisely because of these injuries that this happened.

Xu Xiaoyue is a person with a strong sense of guilt. She has grown up without even daring to kill a chicken.

If Yan Ye hadn't been protecting her, he wouldn't have been injured today.

"What's wrong?" Yan Ye frowned slightly and asked when he noticed that the person in front of him was suddenly in a low mood.

He recalled, pursed his lips, and put on the clothes directly with his hands, "Is it ugly?"

"Ah?" Xu Xiaoyue didn't understand what he meant and turned to look at him in confusion.

“Are those scars ugly?”

"No, no." She quickly waved her hands and explained, "It's not because of the injury on my back. It has nothing to do with the scar."

"I'm sorry for hurting you." Xu Xiaoyue lowered her head, her eyelashes slightly moist.

Yan Ye looked at Xu Xiaoyue's lowered head, his heart softened, and he reached out his hand to gently lift her chin, letting her look into his eyes.

"Don't cry, it's not a big deal."

"I lied to you when I said I hated you that day. I'm sorry."

The more he was so indifferent, the heavier the burden on Xu Xiaoyue's heart became. Tears rolled down her eyes and she bit her lips. Her voice was unconsciously nasal from crying, as if she was acting like a spoiled child.

She felt that she had gone too far, taking advantage of the kindness of the man in front of her to say those hurtful words without restraint.

Yan Ye looked at her, a hint of discomfort flashing in his eyes, but in fact he had long stopped blaming her.

Even when he was angry, he just stayed alone quietly, trying not to disturb her.

"Are you angry with me?" Seeing the man remain silent, Xu Xiaoyue asked timidly.

"I'm angry, but not because of this." Yan Ye's tone was light, as if he had thought of something, his face darkened, and his black eyes stared at the fair little face.

Xu Xiaoyue felt uneasy at the look in his eyes, and her voice became even quieter, "Then, what's the reason?"

The man turned his head slightly, trying not to look at her innocent look, and educated her in a serious tone: "Just now in the restaurant, you were so impulsive that you hit someone. Have you ever thought that you are also in danger? What if there are not so many people around, and that psychopath attacks you?"

"But he wants to arrest me." Xu Xiaoyue retorted weakly.

"Next time you encounter something like this, find a crowded place to escape. People with bare feet are not afraid of those wearing shoes. All you can do is hide." Although his tone was serious, his worry was obvious.

Xu Xiaoyue bit her lip. She knew that she had been a little impulsive this time. After being scolded, she could only nod and said, "I understand. I won't do this again next time."

Seeing her pitiful appearance, Yan Ye's anger disappeared a lot, "Let's go."

Xu Xiaoyue thought the man was going to take her to the police station until she realized that the car was taking the wrong route and she became confused.

"Isn't this the way to the restaurant?" She turned to look at the man, her tone slightly confused.

Yan Ye raised his eyebrows and said, "Did I say I wouldn't go to the restaurant?"

"But, but aren't those people from the police station still waiting for us?"

The man seemed to have heard something funny. He sneered and said, "It's okay. Just let them wait."

The perpetrator and the hotel manager have both been taken away. Even if Chief Li is stupid, he should be able to find out who was the first to instigate this.

Xu Xiaoyue originally thought that this was not a good idea, but then she changed her mind and thought that it would not be a bad idea to let that Scar Brother suffer for a while longer. That’s just right, I’ll use it to sober him up.

In the police station, Scar Brother yelled at the top of his voice: "I want to see my uncle, I want to find Zhang Dehua."

He was drunk and thought that he had only flirted with a lesbian. What's more, he was beaten like this before he even started.

Now, he has been taken to the police station. He howled to the sky, feeling how miserable he was.

Chief Li had already learned what had happened from the hotel manager. Seeing that the hooligan dared to yell, he hit him on the head in annoyance.

"You kid still don't understand the situation right now, right? If you keep shouting, I'll get Zhang Dehua to keep you company and ask him how he educated you."

This time, Li Suo really showed no mercy and beat the man until he was half awake. He thought about it carefully, and then agreed loudly: "Quickly bring Zhang Dehua over to keep me company."

The subordinates next to him were so embarrassed that they didn't know where to look. Zhang Dehua, there is indeed such a person in the institute.

He looks honest and well behaved usually, but I didn't expect that he would be involved with this street urchin.

Li Suo held his forehead and looked up at the sky in silence, "Find something to cover his mouth. Wait until he sobers up and then give his confession."

Several people searched for a long time but couldn't find even the sackcloth. They had no choice but to take off Scar Brother's socks and stuff them into his mouth.
