Following the light source, the girl quickly found the source of the bloody smell, and her dark eyes dimmed considerably as a result.

He was originally dressed in training clothes, but now, for some reason, the fabric on his thighs was torn, and it was also wet to the touch, with the fabric clinging to his body as if it had been soaked in some liquid.

Seeing this, Qi Jiu finally understood, and a strange anger welled up inside her.

"You didn't even say a word when you were injured?"

If she hadn't noticed, was this guy planning to hold out all night? He wouldn't even know if the wound got infected and inflamed! And if it got worse, who knows what the consequences would be?

People who don't study medicine never take this kind of thing seriously!

Qi Silin looked up at her, a weak smile on his lips, and said, "Squeak."

Qi Jiu: "..." What's the use of making a sound now!

The girl looked at him, and finally couldn't help but roll her eyes. "Don't mess with me today, kid. I still have a lot of questions to ask you, and now this has happened. You'd better be glad that even if you get out of here, you'll still be able to survive in my hands."

As she spoke, the little girl pulled out a small knife from somewhere and slowly walked towards Qi Silin's groin.

He was immediately startled and, without thinking, grasped the girl's slender wrist.

"Qiqi, how about... we go outside first?"

He knew that Qi Jiu was doing and saying things for his own good, but this position was really...

Although he didn't finish his sentence, Qi Jiu seemed to have guessed it, and a smile appeared on her lips.

"no."

I could smell the blood just now, so this wound on the groin was definitely not an ordinary scratch. The wound must be quite deep. The environment is dark now, so I don't know if there are any other foreign objects inside the wound.

If treatment isn't sought promptly, the sweat-soaked environment can easily lead to infection.

"But……"

Qi Silin had something else to say, but as soon as he uttered those two words, he met Qi Jiu's somewhat cold gaze.

Qi Silin: "..." Fine, I won't say anything more, okay?

Seeing this, Qi Jiu no longer hesitated and directly used the knife to cut open the cloth covering the wound, and the scene inside instantly rushed into her eyes.

The area that should have been skin was now covered in blood, and a rather obvious large wound was even visible.

The scene was a bloody mess, and the stench of blood was overwhelming; there was no time to care about anything else.

Seeing this, the girl snorted coldly. "You're already like this, and you still plan to go out and talk? What will you do if your wound gets infected? If you become crippled, I won't take care of you."

The voice carried a hint of coldness, but it didn't sound that way to the man's ears.

Qi Silin smiled, seemingly trying to find an excuse. "I was worried that in this cramped space, I wouldn't be able to let you demonstrate your medical skills. Isn't it much more spacious outside?"

Hearing this, Qi Jiu didn't even look up, and took out some simple disinfectant from her body. "You still have the energy to joke around. It seems that it's okay if I didn't come this time."

While talking, his hands didn't stop, and in no time, he had finished cleaning up.

Then he heard a tearing sound and saw her roughly rip a strip of cloth from the hem of her clothes. Seeing that the hands were about to rush towards him, Qi Silin lost his temper again.

"Honey, let me do it myself this time."

The bloodstains have been cleaned up, and some skin has been exposed, but in this state... if he hadn't deliberately pulled the fabric down a bit, he probably would have been completely exposed.

Seeing the somewhat unfathomable expression on his face, the girl raised an eyebrow with interest.

"What's there for a grown man to be shy about? As a doctor, even if you stripped naked and lay in front of me right now, I wouldn't feel a ripple in my heart."

One word seemed to have triggered Qi Silin, causing his expression to freeze and his gaze towards her to become filled with resentment.

But she quickly realized, "You're calm, but I am. I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself."

Before Qi Jiu could react, he snatched the strip of cloth from her hand and skillfully bandaged himself.

Since he had already taken the initiative to do this, the girl didn't say anything more, and her slender fingers held the flashlight to illuminate his path.

He worked quickly and skillfully, bandaging the wound in just a few moments.

When it was almost time, the two of them got up together and walked out of the cave. The series of actions seemed harmonious, but Qi Silin felt something was off.

"Honey, why don't you ask me something?" It was too quiet, so quiet that it made him a little uneasy.

If I don't say something now, I feel like he'll be doomed once he gets out.

Qi Jiu didn't speak, her steps faltering. She only slowed down when she felt her sleeve being tugged. "You haven't answered the two questions I asked earlier. Answer them first."

With light within reach, the girl didn't bother to stay and listen to his answer. She simply took his arm and walked out of the cave.

They could see Liu Yu and the others shining flashlights back and forth as soon as they came towards them. They seemed to have noticed the commotion and quickly came to meet them.

"Master! Miss Qi!"

Seeing Qi Silin's current state, Liu Guang was shocked. She had just reached out her hand when she saw her master skillfully dodge it. Then she saw him clinging to Qi Jiu, like a wronged little wife.

Anyone who didn't know better would think he was a thug who abducted women.

Liu Guang: "..." Sometimes being out and about feels like calling the police.

Qi Silin leaned weakly against the little girl, his voice tinged with grievance. "I came here on purpose, to maximize my profits. Don't let my current injuries fool you; they're in a much worse situation than me. They're all dead now."

For some reason, I could even hear the word "tsundere" in his tone.

Qi Jiu looked at him but didn't say anything, and then he spoke up.

“This wasn’t originally the place where we were supposed to discuss cooperation, but in order to maximize our profits, I deliberately stepped into their trap.”

Seeing the little girl's complexion worsening, he quickly changed his tune. "But it wasn't all on purpose. I'm really injured, my leg really hurts... Qiqi... I'm not going to be crippled, am I?"

As he spoke, his voice grew softer and softer, but his gaze never left Qi Jiu. His dark eyes were deep, as if he were observing her expression without blinking.

And that is indeed the case.
