Chapter 180 Feeding My Wife
When Luo Shu was discharged from the hospital, it was a gloomy, rainy day. The sky was overcast and the roads were wet.
After applying the ointment to her legs, they became slightly damp, and by the time she returned to the villa, they were sticky and uncomfortable, and the pain had worsened.
The wound, about the size of a palm, has peeled off a small layer of skin and seems to be showing signs of infection.
She was half-lying on the sofa in the living room when Yu Zhan came over with ointment in his hand. He quickly dried the wound and began applying the medicine.
His movements were very skillful and his technique was very gentle.
Luo Shu propped her head up and stared at him, completely absorbed.
"Mrs. Yu, I'm getting shy looking at me like that," Yu Zhan said, tugging at his lips.
Luo Shu tilted her head, following his gaze. "You can be shy too? I thought there was no one in the world more shameless than you."
Yu Zhan chuckled and looked up at her. This woman used to treat him like a monster, but now she's joking around like this.
"Sir, Madam." Aunt Xu stood to the side, watching the loving couple, and couldn't help but smile.
Luo Shu lowered her eyes in embarrassment.
Now, no matter how close she is to Yu Zhan, she rarely blushes anymore; it's just that she still feels shy when outsiders see it.
"What's wrong?" Yu Zhan asked with a smile.
Aunt Xu rarely saw Yu Zhan smile. Ever since a lady of the house came to live with them, this man of the house has a smile on his face that he can't seem to get off.
"A delivery person brought over a scar removal cream today, saying it was for my wife." Aunt Xu took out a small box of scar removal cream.
Luo Shu was stunned for a moment; she didn't seem to have received any news that someone had delivered something.
Yu Zhan glanced at Luo Shu, then reached out and took the scar removal cream. This scar removal cream was from a foreign brand and was particularly effective at removing scars. Yu Zhan also had this brand; it was already upstairs, but he didn't need it yet.
Who sent this one?
"Did anyone say who sent it?" Luo Shu asked.
Aunt Xu thought for a moment and said, "It seems to be a gift from someone surnamed Ye."
Someone surnamed Ye?
Aside from Ye Fou, the male peacock, it seems like no one else in this circle knows Luo Shu and has the surname Ye.
"..." Yu Zhan's dark eyes darkened. Was he doing this on purpose?
How can someone be so shameless as to covet another man's wife?
Luo Shu pursed her lips, carefully observing his expression; he was about to get angry.
What is Ye Fou doing?
The two of us had quite a bit of contact when we were designing together in his studio a while ago, and sometimes we would stand close together when we worked together.
But this is unavoidable; everyone in a team works the same way, and everyone gets along well and is easy to talk to.
Ye Fou was open in taking care of Luo Shu, but he seemed to be just as enthusiastic towards everyone.
“He’s actually quite annoying,” Luo Shu said.
This is indeed a difficult issue.
Aunt Xu, standing to the side, felt awkward. "Should I take it and get rid of it?"
"No need, just arrange for a delivery to send it back to him. Let him keep it at home. If he needs it someday, he'll have to pay for it himself." Yu Zhan stuffed the ointment back to Aunt Xu.
Aunt Xu nodded slightly and walked away, as if she were carrying a time bomb.
"When will your project end?" Yu Zhan continued applying the medicine to her.
“The factory has already started production, and there shouldn’t be any major problems later on, but they plan to go to the factory to take a look.” Luo Shu cautiously observed his reaction.
"When are you going? Where are you going?"
"We're in a neighboring city, and we haven't decided when we'll go yet," Luo Shu said hurriedly. "Teacher and Xiaoyuer will also be going back, and all the teachers in the team will be going, but we'll have to stay in the neighboring city for one night. There might be some social engagements later."
Yu Zhan nodded slightly without saying anything, but the thoughts on his face betrayed him.
Ye Fou was about to step in openly, but he felt uncomfortable. Even though he knew that Luo Shuxin was now with him, he still minded that someone was coveting his woman.
With such blatant provocation, doesn't he have any dignity left?
Luo Shu reached out and pinched his cheek. "Hey, don't be jealous. What he can't take away is all yours."
"It's not that I'm afraid he'll take it away, it's that I'm afraid he'll covet it."
No, he was both afraid of being robbed and afraid of being targeted by thieves.
Yu Zhan put the medicine back into the medicine box.
A scar removal cream can't cause much of a stir, but that man has been stirring things up all along.
Yu Zhan felt a surge of anger that he couldn't suppress.
"Sir, Madam, dinner is ready," Aunt Xu called from the kitchen.
Yu Zhan snapped out of his daze. Luo Shu stood up and was about to walk over when he quickly stepped in front of her and carefully picked her up.
“I can walk this distance.” Luo Shu patted his chest; she wasn’t bold enough to be so intimate in front of others.
"Aunt Xu isn't an outsider, why are you shy about this?" Yu Zhan smiled, then suddenly leaned in and kissed her on the corner of her mouth.
Luo Shu turned her face away, utterly embarrassed.
Aunt Xu was used to it. Before coming to Yu Zhan's house, she had seen this kind of situation many times in other people's homes, and some were even more open.
She smiled, tidied up her things, and then left the kitchen.
Aunt Xu left, leaving only the two people in the restaurant, and the blush on Luo Shu's face slowly faded.
"Eat lighter meals these days, and avoid soy sauce, otherwise it'll leave marks." Yu Zhan said, putting food on her plate as he ate.
Luo Shu felt the love he brought. Since the company went public, he rarely had time to eat at home, and it had been a long time since she had eaten face-to-face with him like this.
Just then, Luo Shu's phone rang on the desktop, displaying the name 'Ye Fou'. Ye Fou had called.
Luo Shu paused, intending to hang up, but Yu Zhan answered the phone for her.
"Shu'er, did you receive the scar removal cream? My mom had someone send it back from abroad..." Ye Fou said a string of words.
Yu Zhan had his voice on speakerphone, his brow furrowed.
"Thank you for your concern, Mr. Ye, but I've already prepared one for her. You can use this one."
"..."
Should we leave it for him to use?
Do you wish him to get hurt?
Yu Zhan's mouth seemed to be coated with poison; he spoke politely, yet his words were laced with barbs.
Ye Fou naturally understood what he meant, but he didn't expose him. Yu Zhan was angry, and that made him happy.
He needed to prove that he was still a formidable opponent.
"Mr. Ye, have you eaten yet?" Yu Zhan looked at his phone impatiently.
Luo Shu was truly afraid that Ye Fou would say something outrageous; she was caught in the middle and felt extremely uncomfortable.
Ye Fou pondered those words, unsure of their meaning, "I was just about to eat."
"Well, if there's nothing else, I have to hang up and feed my wife. It's just that her foot is injured, not her hand, and I still have to feed her. She's so hard to please."
Yu Zhan muttered to himself, showing no intention of hanging up the phone.
Luo Shu stared at him with wide eyes, her face filled with disbelief.
She didn't say anything!
Who told him to feed it!
Difficult to please?
Feeding his wife?
This man really knows how to spout off without thinking.
Just wait and see how I deal with you!
"..." Ye Fou frowned, "Then let's make an appointment again when we have time."
Let's meet again?
I'll never ask you out!
Yu Zhan hung up the phone immediately.
Luo Shu chuckled. So there were still people in this world who were afraid of Yu Zhan.
"Are you full?" Yu Zhan asked seriously.
"Um."
After settling Luo Shu to sleep that night, he went to his study to work.
He took off his clothes, revealing his bare upper body, showing his shoulder blades that were still slightly red from the burns, and a few blisters that had subsided but were not completely healed.
He took out the ointment and started applying it to himself in front of the small mirror.
As soon as he applied the medicine, he felt a warmth behind him, and a familiar fragrance enveloped him—the unique scent of his woman.
He turned his head and saw the woman standing behind him.
Luo Shu remained silent, her fingers tracing the outline of his muscular shoulder armor, the perfect curves reflected in her eyes.
Suddenly, a hot drop fell on his back, then slid down his back, and a chilling sensation froze him completely.
He turned around, but Luo Shu put her hands on his shoulders and didn't turn back to him.
"Why are you crying?" He was at a loss for what to do, feeling heartbroken.
This wasn't a serious injury. He had seen all sorts of things when he was in the army. He just didn't want his woman to see it, didn't want her to worry, and even more so, didn't want to make her sad.
Yu Zhan has always kept his true intentions well hidden.
But when he carried her back today, Luo Shu touched his wound, and he groaned softly. Although it was barely perceptible, Luo Shu noticed his slightly furrowed brow and the faint smell of ointment on his shoulder.
He hadn't been very intimate with her these past few days, and even his kisses were brief and infrequent.
He's not usually like this.
He's the kind of person who never lets an opportunity slip by easily; when has he ever been so reserved?
Luo Shu immediately sensed something was amiss.
He wasn't very affectionate when he came back today. After enduring this for so long, Luo Shu doesn't believe he doesn't want to be intimate.
As expected, the man was injured but didn't say anything.
"How could you be so foolish?" Her voice was slightly choked with emotion.
Yu Zhan smiled, turned around, and pulled the person onto his lap.
This woman finally cried for herself.
The last time she cried in bed was when she offered herself to someone; it seems like a long time ago now.
He carefully wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
She didn't cry even when she was seriously injured, but she cried like this over Yu Zhan's minor injury.
He smiled, hugged her tightly, and gently stroked her head.
"Don't cry, you're perfectly fine now," Yu Zhan whispered in her ear, as if comforting a child.
Luo Shu held him carefully, afraid of hurting him.
If she had known that Yu Zhan was injured, she wouldn't have agreed to Lin Yi's suggestion that Lin Xiao be sent to a remote area for such an easy mission.
She slowly released her grip and asked, "Does it hurt?"
"It hurts so much." Yu Zhan lowered his eyelids, his eyes revealing a deep, unfathomable depth.
He said, "A kiss will make the pain go away."
Luo Shu was amused by his words and unexpectedly kissed the corner of his lips.
"Does it still hurt?" she asked with a grin.
“Even lightning isn’t that fast, so this is useless.” Yu Zhan looked at her pink nose.
Seeing that he wouldn't give up, Luo Shu pecked at the corner of his lips again and again.
“Like this, and like this…” she asked.
Yu Zhan's eyes were filled with murky water. He held the back of her head and leaned down to kiss her. His other hand naturally landed on her waist, the warm touch reaching her skin through her pajamas.
"It should be like this..."
The woman's eyes were shimmering, and her face was flushed.
The spring tide has already been stirred up.
After a long while, she finally pushed him away.
"Let me apply the medicine for you..." She didn't know when her voice had become so charming, so soft as soon as she opened her mouth.
Yu Zhan licked his lips, still wanting more, and said, "Okay."
Luo Shu carefully got up and saw the tight scenery.
She picked up the ointment from the table, and Yu Zhan turned his back to her, obediently letting her apply it.
Yu Zhan didn't not want to, but he was afraid of touching her scars.
Luo Shu naturally didn't want to trouble him. He still had injuries on his back, and she didn't know if he could manage in this situation.
