Arriving at the pharmacy, Doctor Zheng handed Qiao Xuejun a can of nitroglycerin ointment and instructed her on how to use it. Finally, he emphasized, "Massage it in frequently for better absorption. But don't apply too much, or the side effects will cause headaches."
Qiao Xuejun took the ointment and accepted it: "Got it."
Zhao Xian pressed the issue more than Qiao Xuejun, showing more concern than Qiao Xuejun: "Massage after applying the medicine? Ten minutes?"
Doctor Zheng: "Generally, it will be absorbed after 2 minutes of pressing. But pressing for 10 minutes will help dilate blood vessels."
Zhao Xian humbly asked: "How do I press it?"
Doctor Zheng smiled and said, "Come, I'll teach you. Teacher Qiao, give me your hand."
"First, lift your wrist, then press with your thumb." Military Doctor Zheng used his thumb to massage Qiao Xuejun's wrist in a regular pattern, demonstrating to Zhao Xian, "The technique is like this: back and forth, with gentle pressure, not too strong."
Doctor Zheng pressed on Qiao Xuejun for two minutes and asked her, "How does it feel? Is it too hard?"
Qiao Xuejun answered truthfully: "No, it's quite comfortable."
Not too light or too heavy, just right, it seemed as if the nerves in my wrists were stretched.
Doctor Zheng smiled and asked Zhao Xian, "Lord, have you learned it?"
Zhao Xian already knew some massage techniques, and now he knew roughly how to do it just by looking at it.
Doctor Zheng didn't consider himself an outsider at all. He handed Qiao Xuejun's hand to Zhao Xian and said, "Then you try it."
Qiao Xuejun: “…”
Her wrist was transferred from Doctor Zheng's hand to Zhao Xian's hand, and the handover went smoothly.
Zhao Xian had taken off his gloves. His palms were slightly hot. He lifted her wrist and gently pressed his thumb on Qiao Xuejun's wrist, imitating Doctor Zheng's movements.
Zhao Xian asked her, "How is the force? Is it heavy?"
Qiao Xuejun shook her head: "No."
But Zhao Xian's palm was obviously bigger, and the contact area of his thumb was also larger. When it was pressed against her wrist, she could feel the calluses on his fingertips. Even though he didn't use much strength, Qiao Xuejun still felt a little hot from being rubbed.
But the temperature of my wrist did rise, which was indeed comfortable.
Zhao Xian: "You have to listen to Lao Zheng. Remember to apply hot compresses, apply medicine on time, and massage."
He added, "Or you can live in the base, and I'll come to your house every day to massage you."
Qiao Xuejun laughed: "The Lord comes to serve me every day? The emperor's treatment? Then when will my coronation ceremony be held?"
Zhao Xian: "It's just a hand massage, that's just the beginning. If you want, you can also massage my feet."
He then calmly pointed out, "It's not like I haven't pressed it before."
"Ahem." Military Doctor Zheng cleared his throat and looked away, pretending not to see it, but the teasing intent in his expression was about to overflow.
Qiao Xuejun's ears turned even redder because of him, and she immediately retracted her hand: "Okay, no more jokes, let's get back to work."
She turned and walked towards the door, quickly escaping.
Zhao Xian followed her and continued to ask without any shame: "Would you like to stay here?"
Qiao Xuejun: "No, I have a place to stay, don't worry about it."
Zhao Xian felt a little regretful: "As you wish, Your Majesty."
Qiao Xuejun looked at him. What was he playing?
Zhao Xian: "Why, aren't you going to ascend the throne?"
Qiao Xuejun didn't even look at him and strode forward.
But when it comes to speed, Zhao Xian's strides are big, so he caught up with her without even trying to catch up. He even asked calmly, "Are you really not coming to stay?"
Qiao Xuejun: “Not coming!”
Zhao Xian changed the question: "Can I live with you?"
Qiao Xuejun looked at him, almost impressed by his perseverance: "There's no room left."
She said helplessly: "Zhao Xian, are you idle every day? You are busy all day, aren't you tired? Rest when you need to. I can take care of myself, so you don't need to worry about me."
Zhao Xian lowered his eyes: "I feel uneasy seeing your hand become like this today."
He can't let go.
He even began to reflect that his style of action had indeed been too tough.
Look, now the punishment falls on the one you love and on yourself.
Vasospasm, sudden cramping pain.
His sweetheart said that this was not the first time this had happened.
She said she'd been in pain ever since she was dragged into the water by the sea monster. From the first day they encountered the sea monster, to the five days they spent in the city, and then back, now another week had passed. She'd been in pain for nearly half a month.
He also wanted to question Qiao Xuejun why it had become like this, but she endured it and didn't say anything. If he hadn't discovered it today, how long would she have endured it?
But he couldn't bear to do it.
Not qualified either.
If it were her friends in the shelter, anyone would have been qualified to question her, but he didn't.
Qiao Xuejun works so hard, and the ultimate beneficiary is the base. Everything she does is for the base.
Even if others don’t know, how could he not know?
She was dragged into the water by the sea monster because she found moss and was dragged away when she bent down to collect the moss for the base.
I came back to move heavy objects because I was involved in building a stable, also for base construction.
As an expert he invited back, Qiao Xuejun has really tried her best and done her job excellently.
He had no reason to question her.
She had been discovered today and was trying to cover it up. He knew she probably didn't want to cause trouble at this time. She felt she was making a big deal out of nothing.
His teacher Qiao wants to face everything and solve everything by himself.
Qiao Xuejun looked at Zhao Xian's gloomy expression and reached out to hold his hand. "It's really okay. Didn't you hear what Old Zheng said? You don't even need medicine. It's really just a small problem. Why are you so unhappy?"
