Chapter 78: A vicious heart, a harsh blow
"Wait, she, she, is Su Huanyan?"
"But why is Su Huanyan in our house? Big brother, what are you doing in the middle of the night?"
Shen Qingyi looked at him in shock with her pretty little face.
This is her gentle and elegant elder brother, and he actually brought the girl here secretly.
"This is a long story." Chen Mu rubbed his brows.
"Then I'll make it short."
Chen Mu: “…”
Chen Mu sighed, "The girl was seriously injured and had a high fever. Big brother called you over to ask for your help."
Hearing this, Shen Qingyi looked straight at him with her beautiful eyes. Is this still the elder brother she knew?
The Shen family and the Su family live far away from each other, so the main idea is to pretend out of sight, out of mind. Why would Big Brother run over there at night?
Besides, how did he know that the girl was injured?
Thinking of this, Shen Qingyi raised her eyebrows slightly. Did the eldest brother send someone to keep an eye on the girl?
Are you taking it too seriously?
Shen Qingyi's eyes rolled around, and she quickly came back to her senses. She nodded and said, "Brother, what do you want me to do?"
"Qingyi, Miss Su is injured on her back. There are differences between men and women, so it would be inconvenient for me to help her, so I would like to ask Qingyi to help her apply medicine."
Chen Mu put a bottle of medicine in her hand. Shen Qingyi agreed and walked towards the bed with the medicine.
On the bed, the little girl's back was covered with scars and blood.
When she saw the tragic scene, Shen Qingyi's face turned pale and her whole body began to tremble. She felt her legs go weak and her head was dizzy. She hurriedly grabbed the bedpost and barely managed to stand.
“Big, big brother…”
A crying voice sounded, Shen Qingyi turned her head, and looked at Chen Mu pitifully with wet eyes, with a weak plea for help in her eyes.
Hearing the voice, Chen Mu frowned and looked over, and saw her like this.
He strode over and asked in confusion, "What's wrong, Qingyi?"
"I, I, I, I'm sorry, big brother, I don't dare."
The eldest brother only said that the girl was injured, but he didn't tell her that the injury was so serious that she didn't know where to start.
Chen Mu: “…”
He was even more confused.
"Why not?"
"That girl was injured so badly that there wasn't even a bit of healthy flesh on her back. I was afraid of hurting her. I'm sorry, big brother, I'm useless..."
Shen Qingyi lowered her head, looking extremely guilty.
The girl looked so miserable that she couldn't bring herself to do anything. She didn't dare touch her at all, for fear that any touch would cause more blood to flow.
Chen Mu sighed and reached out to touch her head.
"Qingyi has always been kind. This matter is indeed too difficult for you. It is my fault for not considering it carefully."
Shen Qingyi instantly felt even more guilty, but no matter how guilty she was, she couldn't say something like "let her try it".
After thinking for a while, she raised her head and said, "Brother, what should we do with Miss Su? How about I find a female doctor?"
"Forget it. Miss Su's situation in our house cannot be known to outsiders. Give me the medicine. I'll do it."
Shen Qingyi blinked and looked at him inquiringly. Her elder brother had clearly not said that before. He had clearly said that there were differences between men and women and that there were many inconveniences.
"Brother, this, this isn't appropriate, right? There's a difference between men and women..."
She reminded him weakly, but the man, who was as bright as the moon, looked indifferent.
"As long as you don't tell anyone, no one will know."
Shen Qingyi: "..."
Could it be? Could it be?
Big brother planned to use her as a cover from the beginning, right?
No way, no way?
When did Big Brother become so...
"Don't worry, big brother. I will never tell anyone. Even if the king of heaven comes, I will be the one to administer the medicine tonight."
Shen Qingyi chuckled and put the medicine bottle in Shen Mu's hand.
"Brother, I'll wait for you outside. Call me if you need any help."
After saying this, without waiting for Chen Mu's response, Shen Qingyi walked towards the outer room very tactfully.
Chen Mu: “…”
He felt misunderstood but didn't know how to explain it.
He called her over because he really wanted her help, but she said she didn't dare, so he went over there himself. Why does it feel like Qingyi thinks he is using her as a cover?
Coming back to his senses, Chen Mu walked to the bedside with the medicine bottle and sat down. Under the bright candlelight, the scars on the girl's back were more eye-catching and more shocking. No wonder Qingyi didn't dare to take action.
"Miss Su, I'm sorry!"
Chen Mu sighed softly and reached out to seal all the acupuncture points on the girl's body.
Qingyi was right. The injury was so serious that applying medicine was a torture. Sealing the acupoints could reduce a lot of pain.
Then he reached out and gently tore open the clothes on the girl's back, took out a piece of ointment and began to apply it.
After about twenty days of feeding, the girl had indeed grown a lot and become a little plumper. She no longer looked as malnourished as the bean sprout she used to be, but she was still very thin.
In addition, the girl has skin that is as white as snow. Under the reflection of candlelight, her skin is translucent, jade-like and icy, and emits a pink luster.
Chen Mu only glanced at him once before looking away. He remained calm and composed throughout, his eyes so peaceful that there was no emotion at all.
The girl was seriously injured, and it took a full half hour to finish applying the medicine. She was also given some fever-reducing pills, and then he stood up and walked towards the outer room.
At a glance, I saw Shen Qingyi sitting on a low couch by the window, dozing off little by little.
Suddenly, her body tilted and fell to the ground. Shen Mu moved and hurried over to support her. Shen Qingyi was also woken up by the shaking.
When she opened her eyes, she saw Chen Mu supporting her, and her mind immediately recalled what happened before.
"Brother, have you finished applying the medicine?"
She rubbed her eyes and yawned again, her beautiful eyes sparkling.
"Um."
Chen Mu responded and said, "Don't tell anyone about Miss Su's affairs, not even your parents or Shen Yaoxing, understand?"
Hearing this, Shen Qingyi nodded dazedly and said, "I know, big brother, I won't tell you, but my parents might know."
The mansion is full of my father's spies. How could they possibly deceive my father about such a big thing by bringing in a living person?
"It's okay," Chen Mu said with a faint smile, "As long as you don't say anything, my parents will turn a blind eye."
As long as no one mentions it, even if everyone knows it, the window paper will never be broken.
"oh."
When the eldest brother speaks, can she still say no?
"Also, remember to send a set of women's clothes over tomorrow. Remember to avoid your maid and don't let her know."
"Oh, okay."
Shen Qingyi continued to nod.
"Yeah," Chen Mu responded, reaching out to touch her head, "Okay, if you're sleepy, go to bed early. Big brother will take you home."
"good."
The next day.
Shen Qingyi slept until noon before waking up.
The first thing I did after getting up and washing up was to take a new set of clothes, from inside to outside, and send it to Beiyuan.
"Brother, these clothes are new. I will send two more sets over later."
She didn't know how long her brother was going to hide the girl, so it would be better to send two more sets so that the girl would have something to change into when she woke up.
