Chapter 232 Applying Medicine
After driving back home, without waiting to go to the bedroom, Huo Xilin pushed Xu Qingsui against the wall, held her face and forced her to raise her head and respond to his kiss.
She closed her eyes passionately and put her hands naturally on his neck.
Huo Xilin simply picked her up and carried her sideways, walked into the bedroom and put her on the bed. Huo Xilin was extremely excited that night, yet extremely gentle.
He repeated in her ear over and over again: "Xu Qingsui, you are mine!"
"Yes!" Xu Qingsui answered firmly: "I am yours!"
Always!
Huo Xilin smiled and replied, "I am yours too, forever."
It was unknown how much time had passed, so long that Xu Qingsui could no longer hold on and fell asleep. In her dream, she felt Huo Xilin holding her and taking a bath, but she was too tired and did not open her eyes.
When Huo Xilin washed her face and saw the bruises at the corners of her eyes, his originally gentle eyes suddenly turned cold.
His fingers rubbed the corners of her eyes, and Xu Qingsui immediately frowned and murmured, "It hurts."
Huo Xilin's eyes were full of worry and heartache. He picked her up from the bathtub, wiped off the water and put her back on the bed. He found the first aid medicine box and took out the blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing medicine to apply to her.
Then he went to the study and called Xu Wanshan.
It was already early morning when Xu Wanshan was awakened by the ringing of the phone. He picked up the phone and saw that the caller ID was Huo Xilin's name. He knew that Xu Qingsui's injury was known to him and that the call was to call him to find fault.
He sighed and clicked to answer the call. Sure enough, Huo Xilin's voice came from the other end: "My wife is injured. Do you know about this?"
"I know." Xu Wanshan knew that she couldn't hide the truth, so she told the truth: "There was a dispute between colleagues, and she went to mediate, but she was accidentally injured."
"Oh?" Huo Xilin asked curiously, "In a job like yours, if you pick a cultural craftsman and deal with him, will there be a fight among your colleagues?"
Xu Wanshan said apologetically: "It is indeed because I, as the person in charge, did not manage this matter properly."
"Who hit him?" Huo Xilin asked coldly.
Xu Wanshan said: "Sorry, I can't say."
He knew Huo Xilin. He was a man who would repay kindness with kindness and avenge hatred with hatred. If he knew what Zhang Mei had done, he was afraid that this matter would not end well.
Zhang Mei's father was kind to him, and he promised to take good care of her. He couldn't go back on his word, so he could only let Xu Qingsui down.
"Xu Wanshan, if you don't tell me, you don't think I can't find out, right?" Huo Xilin said, "You have always been fair in doing things. I am very curious about what kind of person can make you protect him so much."
"Favors are the hardest to repay. Mr. Huo, I will definitely give Junior Sister Xu an explanation about this matter, but I hope you won't interfere." There was a hint of request in Xu Wanshan's words.
"If it's my business, I will definitely give you this face, but since it involves my wife, I can only say sorry to you. I will take care of this matter!" Huo Xilin said domineeringly and hung up the phone decisively.
The next morning, Xu Qingsui was awakened by the sound of an alarm. She was so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes. She subconsciously reached in the direction of the sound, and her hand felt burning hot.
When she opened her eyes, she found that she was touching Huo Xilin's chest. At this time, he had taken the phone and turned off the sound.
"It's still early, sleep a little longer." He said to her gently.
Xu Qingsui asked in a hoarse voice: "What time is it now?"
"It's still early. Sleep for another half an hour and I'll take you to work." Huo Xilin said, "Go to sleep. I'll call you when the time comes."
Xu Qingsui nodded, rested his head on his chest, and continued to sleep.
After waiting for a while, she suddenly opened her eyes and sat up.
Huo Xilin was startled by her and asked quickly, "What's wrong?"
"I remembered that I have a morning meeting today, so I have to go early." After saying that, Xu Qingsui found his mobile phone from under Huo Xilin's pillow, checked the time, prepared to have breakfast, and it was almost time to go to work.
She yawned, her eyes felt sore. She had been up too late last night, which made her tired. Especially when she moved, her whole body ached. She couldn't help but frown.
Huo Xilin noticed her abnormality immediately, rubbed her waist and asked, "Are you feeling better?"
His strength was just right, allowing Xu Qingsui to close his eyes comfortably.
After rubbing for a while, he got off the bed and poured her a glass of water: "Drink a sip, and I'll apply medicine to you after you wash your face?"
Xu Qingsui looked up in confusion and asked, "What medicine do you want to apply?"
Huo Xilin looked at the bruise spreading around the corner of her eye. It was just a small area yesterday, but today it almost covered her cheekbone. He pointed to the corner of her eye and said, "Here."
Xu Qingsui was so scared that he quickly got out of bed and rushed to the bathroom. To his surprise, the makeup he had applied yesterday was washed away completely, and the bruises were becoming more and more obvious. He couldn't go out without makeup.
She tried to conceal it, but she didn't expect that Huo Xilin would find out about it.
But looking at his expression, he didn't seem angry, and she couldn't help but feel relieved.
After washing up, Huo Xilin was already dressed and looked really good in his suit.
Seeing her come out, he waved and took out medicine from the medicine box: "I'll apply medicine to you."
"No need for that. How can I put on makeup after applying the medicine?" Xu Qingsui heard the doctor say that the bruises would disappear on their own and it would just take some time, so he didn't take the application of the medicine seriously.
"You're injured like this, and you're still thinking about putting on makeup?" Huo Xilin was angry that she didn't take care of her body.
Xu Qingsui sighed and explained, "I can't go out without makeup. I still have to go to work today."
"Then I won't go."
"No!" Xu Qingsui refused immediately. Seeing Huo Xilin's gloomy face, she walked over, pulled his side, and said in a coquettish tone: "You know, I like this job, and I don't want to delay it because of personal matters."
Her colleagues already had some opinions about her, and she spent three days surfing the Internet and two days fishing, which made people look down on her even more.
She didn't care about other people's eyes, but she didn't want to make things difficult for Xu Wanshan. Moreover, instead of staying at home, she wanted to continue to pursue her career.
"Besides, I have a meeting today. I hope you can respect me and not confine me to the house as a full-time housewife."
"Who said I'm going to confine you at home?" Huo Xilin said, "Xu Qingsui, listen carefully. You can always do what you like. I let you rest today because your face is injured, not because I want you to go to work. Do you understand?"
