Chapter 755 You Don't Need to Let Go
"I bumped into something when I climbed over the wall just now," Huo Zhizhou said softly.
I hadn't originally planned to tell her about this.
I didn't want her to worry.
But given the current situation, unless he uses some tricks, Ruanruan won't like him at all, and won't even talk to him. In that case, let alone rebuilding their relationship and making up, they can't even ease the tension.
"You have the ability to bypass the firewall, but not the ability to endure the pain?" Jiang Ruan tried her best to appear indifferent.
Huo Zhizhou remained silent.
Silently, she lowered her head and removed the gauze, revealing the still-bleeding wound inside.
Seeing that the stitches on his abdomen had burst open, Huo Zhizhou hurriedly pressed the gauze back on.
"Can I hug you?" Huo Zhizhou casually adjusted the medical tape on the gauze and started buttoning his shirt. "Just a hug and I'll be gone."
I thought it was just the same bleeding as before.
Unexpectedly, the line broke this time.
Ruan Ruan has always been afraid of pain and dared not look at anything too bloody. If she were to see something, she might be traumatized.
But he didn't know that Jiang Ruan had seen it.
Even though his gaze was fixed on his eyes, he still caught a fleeting glimpse of the wound out of the corner of his eye.
ferocious.
Blood red.
Just looking at it makes me feel pain.
"I don't want to hug you." Jiang Ruan's voice was calm and even. "I don't like people who smell of blood."
Huo Zhizhou's face was full of gentleness: "Okay, I'll wash it clean next time."
Jiang Ruan didn't respond.
Huo Zhizhou reached out and ruffled her hair, his voice filled with concern and affection: "I'm leaving now, get some rest."
After saying that, he withdrew his hand and walked towards the study door.
Perhaps it's because I'm soft-hearted.
Or perhaps it's because he used to patiently and meticulously apply medicine whenever she bumped or bruised herself.
Jiang Ruan couldn't ignore the splash of red after all: "Wait."
Huo Zhizhou paused.
He turned to look at her.
"Regret it?"
“Go sit down.” Jiang Ruan’s tone was just as it had been before.
Huo Zhizhou: "?"
Jiang Ruan walked outside: "I'll go get you the first-aid kit."
Huo Zhizhou thought she was probably worried about his wound bleeding, but to avoid letting her see the wound, he deliberately said, "Concerned about me?"
Jiang Ruan didn't say anything.
They just kept going out.
Seeing her like this, Huo Zhizhou suddenly felt a little helpless.
He didn't want her to see the wound.
After much deliberation.
He sent Xu Shen a message, telling him to come up at the appointed time.
Not long after the message was sent, Jiang Ruan returned with a first-aid kit. She took out items such as sterile gauze and hemostatic bandages. Seeing Huo Zhizhou still standing there, she said coldly, "Didn't I tell you to sit down?"
Huo Zhizhou: "You haven't given me a hug yet."
Jiang Ruan: "Do you want Sui Sui to find out tomorrow that you reopened your stitches to climb over the wall?"
These words were spoken.
Huo Zhizhou paused.
He glanced at her instinctively, not expecting her to know.
"Sit down," Jiang Ruan said simply.
Huo Zhizhou sat down obediently.
Only now did he realize that his Ruan Ruan possessed a truly intimidating aura. Jiang Ruan, oblivious to his gaze, stared at his abdomen and said, "Unbutton your shirt."
Huo Zhizhou did as instructed.
Not long after.
The open wound came into Jiang Ruan's view.
I didn't see it clearly at first glance, but now that I'm closer, I realize that the wound is bleeding quite badly, and new wounds have appeared in places that were previously healing because he climbed over the wall.
Just as he was about to ask Mo Mo to prepare the car, there was a knock on the study door.
Mo Mo's voice came from outside: "Boss, the deputy captain needs to see my ex-husband."
Jiang Ruan opened the door.
Just as Xu Shen was about to greet them, Jiang Ruan spoke first, following Huo Zhizhou's instructions: "His wound has reopened and needs to be stitched up again."
Mo Mo: "?"
Xu Shen: "?"
Jiang Ruan: "I'll give him some basic treatment, and you can take him to the hospital."
Xu Shen subconsciously looked at Huo Zhizhou.
The latter replied, "No need, it's just a minor injury."
Jiang Ruan turned to look at him.
The lines have already broken and you still haven't gone.
I never realized he was such a troublemaker before.
"Just have Xu Shen sew it for me," Huo Zhizhou said.
Jiang Ruan: "There's no anesthetic."
Xu Shen and Mo Mo were both members of the team. Due to the organization's special nature, each of them knew some basic bandaging and suturing skills. Huo Zhizhou's wound was indeed a minor issue for Xu Shen.
Huo Zhizhou: "It's nothing."
Seeing his calm demeanor, Jiang Ruan didn't say anything more: "Whatever you say."
Given Huo Zhizhou's temperament, even if Mo Mo escorted him out, he would still have Jiang Yu and the others pick him up halfway. In that case, it would be better to have Xu Shen sew it for him.
Every time you feel pain, you learn a lesson.
"Really sewn?" Xu Shen asked.
Huo Zhizhou: "Mm."
Xu Shen reminded him, "It hurts a little."
Huo Zhizhou remained calm: "It's nothing."
He'd been stabbed before, so this little bit of pain was nothing to him.
Xu Shen was unaware of this, but seeing how persistent he was, he began to take action.
"Mo Mo, take your boss out first." Huo Zhizhou didn't want Jiang Ruan to see such a bloody scene. He remembered that she had told him before that the thought of needles piercing flesh made her feel pain.
She's afraid of pain.
I'm not used to seeing this kind of scene.
Mo Mo ignored this: "This is the boss's house. I am the boss's person. You can't order me around."
Huo Zhizhou tried to say something, but ultimately swallowed his words under Jiang Ruan's gaze.
If I really can't watch it.
She will probably look away.
In the time that followed, Xu Shen disinfected, stopped the bleeding, and sutured him.
The whole process was quick; it was finished in less than three minutes.
"I didn't realize you were so good at holding back." Xu Shen teased him as he packed up his tools, then deliberately lowered his voice to gossip, "Are you afraid that Boss Jiang will hear you yelling and think you're not manly?"
"You can take your team down now," Huo Zhizhou said.
Xu Shen raised his eyes, his gaze conveying: Didn't you just tell me to come up and take you away?
Huo Zhizhou: Not needed now.
Xu Shen nodded.
OK.
He stood up and said to Jiang Ruan, "It's sewn up. Let him rest for a while."
Jiang Ruan: "Okay."
Xu Shen left with Mo Mo.
Only Jiang Ruan and Huo Zhizhou remained in the room.
"Why didn't you go out just now?" Huo Zhizhou's expression remained unchanged, showing that the stitches hadn't affected him. "Aren't you most afraid of pain and can't bear to look at these things?"
"It's not like it's sewn onto my body," Jiang Ruan said casually.
Huo Zhizhou's dark eyes softened: "You're worried about me?"
Jiang Ruan replied coldly, "You're overthinking it."
Huo Zhizhou: "You're just worried."
Jiang Ruan: "I just wanted to see you in pain."
“Then I’ll call Xu Shen back.” Huo Zhizhou followed her words, “and have him undo the stitches and sew them up a few more times so you can see them a little longer.”
Jiang Ruan: "..."
Jiang Ruan was completely speechless.
She knew very well that Huo Zhizhou wasn't joking. If she agreed, he would immediately call someone up to take it apart and sew it back together, until she felt "satisfied enough".
A typical madman.
“I know you haven’t completely let go of the past.” Huo Zhizhou brought up the old matter again. “You don’t need to let go, and you don’t need to convince yourself to forgive me. Just stand there, and I will walk towards you on my own.”
Jiang Ruan paused for a moment.
Huo Zhizhou said gently, “No matter if you hate me, reject me, or despise me, I will love you, always stand by your side, and be there whenever you need me.”
