Chapter 22 Applying Medicine



[Ding! The character's corruption level has decreased by 1%, currently at 17%!]

On the way back from grocery shopping, the voice of the Calabash Brothers broadcasting came from my mind.

Su Ping looked at Tu Hengchuan, who was driving without saying a word, and thought, "Little brat, you must be quite fascinated by me too!"

On her way home, she stopped by the hospital and bought iodine solution, topical medication, and gauze. The doctor advised her to keep the wound dry.

I had originally planned to visit Aunt Mei in the hospital, but in my current state, going there would only make Aunt Mei and the others worry about me.

Tu Hengchuan reversed the car into the parking space and took out the car key.

Not hearing any movement from the person beside him, he turned his head to look and found that Su Ping had fallen asleep against the passenger seat at some point.

Her sleeping face was serene, lacking the aggressive demeanor she displayed in the mall, making her resemble an innocent little girl.

Which side is the real her?

When Su Ping woke up, she was already lying on a soft bed.

[Huluwa, how did I get back?]

Tu Hengchuan brought you back.

Upon hearing his name, Su Ping immediately felt wide awake.

I got up and went downstairs, and just then I saw Tu Hengchuan carrying dishes out of the kitchen.

"woke up?"

Hearing the noise, Tu Hengchuan didn't even look up: "Come and eat. I was too lazy to call you anyway."

It seems they never intended to call her at all.

Su Ping looked at the table and saw that there was only one bowl of rice. Luckily, she woke up in time, otherwise she would have had to eat leftovers.

[Host, you need to go to school tomorrow. Song Yifei is on duty tomorrow. In the original storyline, you hired someone to lock Song Yifei in the swimming pool overnight. When Song Qi and Xu Yichen found her the next day, she was already unconscious. They took her to the hospital and found out she had a fever of almost 40 degrees Celsius. Unfortunately, a cell phone was left at the crime scene, which Song Qi picked up. It contained a message you sent half a month ago.]

Upon hearing this, Su Ping suddenly lost her appetite.

It was such a precious vacation for her!

The original owner of this body was truly inhumane, leaving her with a huge mess!

"Not to your liking?"

Seeing that she suddenly stopped eating, Tu Hengchuan, who was sitting opposite her, asked.

Okay, he admits his cooking skills are limited; he can only make scrambled eggs with tomatoes and egg drop soup.

"No, no, it's delicious!"

With her own limited skills, how could she dare to criticize Tu Hengchuan's cooking? Compared to him, what she made was nothing but a pile of shit!

【Host, even a dog wouldn't eat what you've made; strictly speaking, it's worse than shit.】

Tu Hengchuan watched the changes in her facial expressions, and he was sometimes quite curious about how she could express so many emotions with just one face.

After taking a shower, Su Ping applied the medicine in front of the mirror.

Because the wound was on the right side of her neck, she tried several positions but none of them felt comfortable.

Hearing the knock, Tu Hengchuan opened the door.

Outside the door, a girl held up a bag in front of him: "Tu Hengchuan, please help me."

Her eyes were misty, whether from pain or something else, and her voice was soft and sweet, like a kitten's.

She had already removed the gauze from her neck and was now wrapped haphazardly, probably because she had come to him temporarily after her application of medicine failed.

"Come in."

He coughed and opened the door to let her in.

Su Ping then noticed that he had just finished showering and his hair was still wet. Water droplets dripped down his hair, and his neck was already a little damp in no time.

"Why don't you blow-dry your hair first?"

"come over."

Tu Hengchuan moved a stool and sat down, gesturing for Su Ping to sit on the bed.

[Huluwa, this is so embarrassing, I might as well not have come.]

Su Ping dawdled over and sat down. Tu Hengchuan grabbed her knees and moved her closer to him so that they were facing each other.

Su Ping could practically hear the sound of her toes digging into the ground under her slippers.

Her smooth hair was all tied up into a bun, with only a few wisps of hair playfully falling around her temples, making her bright and beautiful features even more fully revealed.

This was the first time he had seen her with her hair up in a bun.

As the gauze was removed, the obvious wound on his fair and slender neck came into his view.

How did you get hurt?

Tu Hengchuan gently applied iodine solution to the wound with a cotton swab. It didn't hurt; instead, it felt itchy and numb.

Su Ping blinked: "I got cut by glass."

lie.

"Ouch, it hurts! Be gentle..."

The wound was pressed hard, and she winced in pain.

"alright."

Tu Hengchuan finished bandaging himself and stood up.

Su Ping breathed a sigh of relief, thanked him, and prepared to leave.

"etc."

Seeing her turn around and look at him with a puzzled expression, Tu Hengchuan asked the question he had always wanted to ask: "What brand of shampoo do you use?"

"It's the kind that's placed in the bathroom."

What's the problem?

"It's alright, you can go now."

After closing the door, Tu Hengchuan smelled the faint scent of gardenias in the room. He had also used the shampoo in the bathroom that night; it had a very ordinary scent and was not gardenias at all.

the next day.

On the bus, Song Qi looked at Song Yifei and Xu Yichen sitting in front of him and thought they were really an eyesore.

He turned his head away from them, looking out the window at the road rushing past.

However, the sound of the two talking could not be ignored.

"Yifei, has Xiaoping contacted you recently?"

Xu Yichen thought of the phone call he received from Uncle Su early this morning. Uncle Su said that Su Ping had recently found someone she liked and asked Xu Yichen to keep an eye on him.

The two grew up together. If he had heard Uncle Su say such things before, he wouldn't have thought much of it, because Su Ping liked to revolve around him. In his eyes, she was like a little sister who didn't understand what it meant to truly like someone.

But now she seems to have her own worries and no longer tells me everything. Could it be that she really has someone she likes?

Thinking of the blond-haired, shady teenagers who often gathered outside the school, he dared not think in that direction.

“She messaged me yesterday saying she was on sick leave because of a neck injury, and she should be recuperating at home these days.”

How did you get a neck injury for no apparent reason? Did you get into a fight with some thugs...?

Xu Yichen thought about it more and more and felt that this was possible. He would have to find some time to try and get her to tell him.

In the original storyline, Song Yifei's swimming lesson was the last one in the afternoon, and Su Ping slept until noon before getting up.

I opened my phone and saw something my dad had sent me two hours earlier.

The document, spanning over ten pages, details the actions of Tu Hengchuan's agent. He Jia's side indicated that if she wanted to sue, the entertainment company could cooperate, including issuing a statement and having its artists testify.

Meanwhile, someone else added her as a friend, claiming to be a lawyer recommended by her father, who could handle the follow-up matters.

Su Ping accepted her friend's request, and the other side quickly responded with a handshake emoji.

She didn't make any other requests, she just hoped to send Tu Hengchuan's agent to eat at the hotel for a few years.
