I raised an eyebrow, paused for a moment, and then said, "I'll go get you some water."
A moment later, I handed him the water glass.
He took the glass, drank a few sips, and I took the glass from him. Just as I put it down, I heard him say again:
"I'm very dirty and I want to take a shower."
I was stunned again.
Didn't he let go? Why is he doing it again now...?
I narrowed my eyes and glanced at him. "There are caregivers in the hospital. I'll go and get one for you now."
He was injured because of me, so I should hire a caregiver for him and take care of him.
The man's face darkened, his brow furrowed slightly, and he said with displeasure, "You know I don't like being touched by others."
He spoke calmly, his gaze fixed on me as he finished speaking.
"Except for you."
His Adam's apple bobbed, his tone was slow, and when he said the last "you," his eyes were burning as he stared at me.
I was startled, and stared at him with sharp eyes.
He actually wanted me to take care of him.
I ignored him and strode out of the ward. Before I even reached the corner of the corridor, Lin Xiao ran up to me and blocked my way.
“Miss Sheng, Mr. Fu was injured because of you. Do you want to owe him this favor?” He also wants me to stay and take care of Fu Yanshen.
“Once you owe this favor, it will be difficult for you to distance yourselves from each other in the future,” Lin Xiao added.
After a moment of rapid thought, I said to him, "Assistant Lin, I lost my phone. Could you please call my assistant Mengmeng and have her come to my apartment to get me a change of clothes?"
After saying that, I went back to the ward to return the favor.
Fu Yanshen's left calf was wrapped in bandages and was swollen to twice its normal size. He had many small burns on his body, so taking a bath was impossible. Getting the wounds wet would cause them to become infected and cause serious problems. He could only wipe them clean.
The VIP ward, furnished like a five-star hotel, was warmly decorated. Under the warm lighting, the man leaned back against the headboard, resting with his eyes closed.
I approached with a basin of warm water and said, "Unbutton your clothes yourself."
Fu Yanshen opened his eyes, raised his left hand, and tried to unbutton his shirt. He tugged at it for a long time, but weakly, the button wouldn't budge.
He looked very tired and weak, and looked at me with seemingly innocent eyes.
I put down the towel, walked to the bedside, bent down, and unbuttoned his hospital gown one button at a time. His strong chest, along with that horrifying scar, was gradually exposed to my view.
My breath caught in my throat, and in an instant, I secretly scratched my left wrist with my fingers and gritted my teeth.
He had an IV drip in his right hand, and it wasn't easy to take off his hospital gown completely. I used a warm, damp towel to wipe his chest, washed the towel, and then wiped his back.
The man suddenly wrapped his arms around me, and I froze.
"I have no strength."
He mumbled weakly, his face pressed against my stomach, and I could hear him inhaling deeply, as if he were sucking in my breath.
I blinked and quickly wiped his back.
"Fu Yanshen, that's enough, let go of me." I said coldly.
He remained motionless, his entire weight resting on me. I was a little overwhelmed and almost fell off the edge of the bed.
As I pushed him away slightly, I remembered something and touched his forehead.
It was so hot it burned my palm.
Sure enough, he developed a fever.
"Fu Yanshen, let go of me, lie down, and I'll call the doctor," I said in a deep voice.
But he held me even tighter.
I frowned and deliberately raised my voice, "Fu Yanshen, let go and lie down properly!"
Upon hearing my command, he immediately released me and fell back.
The doctor came over, prescribed fever-reducing medication, and had the nurse put it into the next IV drip.
After I wiped his legs, Lin Xiao knocked on the door and brought me the clothes I wanted. I quickly took a shower to wash away my disheveled state and changed into clean pajamas.
After I dried my hair and came out, Fu Yanshen's IV drip was finished. I walked over to him and touched his forehead.
The temperature hasn't gone down yet.
However, now that I've taken fever-reducing medication, it should be over soon.
Just as I was about to pull my hand back, he grabbed my arm. I tried to pull it back, but he used brute force to pull me down, and I ended up lying on his chest.
The man's arms were wrapped tightly around my waist.
"Fu Yanshen, let go of me, I'm going to sleep!" I pinched his arm angrily and said in a deep voice.
"Mmm, let's sleep. I'll hold you while we sleep..." he mumbled.
I:……
The more I struggled, the tighter he held me. This time he wouldn't listen to my commands, and even after I started snoring softly, he still wouldn't let go of me for a second.
After tossing and turning all night, I was so exhausted that I could barely stay awake, so I simply got into bed.
The man's steady, rhythmic heartbeat vibrated in my ears, and my eyelids grew heavier and heavier until I finally closed them, exhausted...
I slept until I naturally woke up.
I opened my eyes, my senses gradually cleared, I heard a strong heartbeat behind me, the familiar scent of male hormones enveloped me, and a warm feeling came from my lower abdomen.
It was Fu Yanshen's hand behind me.
Rough palms are gently, carefully stroking my belly.
