Chapter 205 I'll be gentler
Ji Lianqi shook his head expressionlessly.
He didn't tell her that he had heard her talking to Sheng Hao, but made up an excuse: "Nothing, I just suddenly felt thirsty and wanted to drink some water."
"Really?" Ye Ying looked at him suspiciously, "You were thirsty and couldn't you wait for me to come back? Now you've fallen down."
Ji Lianqi replied casually: "Next time for sure."
Seeing him like this, Ye Ying suddenly didn't know how to answer, so she changed the subject: "Let me see your legs, are you hurt?"
As she said this, she opened the quilt and was about to lift up his trouser legs.
But she failed to do so, as a hand held down her hand.
Ye Ying was startled: "What's wrong? You still won't let me see it?"
Ji Lianqi said in a cold voice, "Don't look, it's really okay."
At this moment, he didn't want Ye Ying to see his crippled leg at all!
"Okay, then I won't watch it." Ye Ying didn't insist for the first time.
"Doctor Sheng said that your injuries have healed well and you can have your body wiped. Do you want to have one? Nurse Xiaolan only wiped your hands and feet today."
Anyone would be unable to bear lying in bed for so long without getting out of bed and taking a shower.
More than a week has passed, and he has been forced to eat, drink, defecate and urinate in bed all the time. He must be fed up with it.
"Okay." Ji Lianqi said without hesitation.
"Okay, since it's not too cold yet, I'll get you some hot water to wipe yourself off."
Ye Ying picked up the basin that Nurse Xiaolan had left in the ward and suddenly paused. "Or should I let Nurse Xiaolan help you?"
Ji Lianqi said absentmindedly: "....Just come."
"Okay, I'll go get some water." Ye Ying smiled, picked up the basin and went out.
When the door of the ward closed, Ji Lianqi's face became gloomy, and he was completely different from the previous second.
He was angry and confused.
Except for his legs, which still make him unable to walk normally, his other parts have recovered a lot, and his two arms have gradually become more powerful.
It is a cause for joy to gradually regain the ability to take care of oneself.
But he had just heard the conversation between Dr. Sheng and Ye Ying - his legs might not be able to recover to their former condition.
His blood was boiling, but the moment he heard the news, it turned completely cold.
If his leg cannot recover, it means that he can no longer continue to serve, no longer hold a gun and defend his motherland.
Completely ruined to the point of being a waste.
If he had known that he would end up like this, he shouldn't have asked Ye Ying to "give it one more try".
What else can a useless person do? Wouldn't that delay her?
Even if she didn't mind, how could he face his disabled self?
The more Ji Lianqi thought about it, the angrier he became.
He doesn't believe in evil!
So he threw back the quilt and got out of bed with difficulty.
But the facts slapped us in the face again.
He took two steps and fell down!
Not long after, Ye Ying brought back a basin of hot water that was still steaming.
The moment he opened the door to the ward, he saw Ji Lianqi lying on the ground with a look of despair on his face.
"Oh my god, why did you fall down again?" She exclaimed, put on the hot water, and hurried over to help the man onto the bed.
"What's going on here?"
"Nothing." Ji Lianqi turned his face away, "I'm just thirsty."
"You!" Ye Ying was a little angry, "Why do you feel thirsty when I'm not around? Can't you wait a little longer? What if you break it?"
"Got it." Ji Lianqi's voice was still indifferent, and there was no expression on his face.
Ye Ying frowned, feeling helpless: "Forget it, I'll wipe your body first."
She wet the towel, wrung it dry, and began to take off her clothes, revealing her chest covered with scars of varying sizes.
The gauze had been removed from all parts of the upper body, except for the abdomen which was severely injured.
"Does it still hurt?" I wet the towel with hot water and dared not touch his body.
Ji Lianqi saw the hesitation in Ye Ying's eyes and said, "It's much better now. Wipe it off, it's okay."
"Okay, I'll try to be as gentle as possible."
Taking a deep breath, Ye Ying slowly placed the towel in her hand on his chest.
Almost at that moment, she could clearly feel his body tremble violently.
Realizing his own reaction, Ji Lianqi's expression became complicated and unusual. He suddenly grabbed Ye Ying's hesitant hand and said coldly, "Why don't you just stop rubbing it?"
Ye Ying didn't know why he changed so suddenly.
"Why? Did I hurt you?"
"No, I just suddenly don't want to wipe it."
"Well... okay then." Ye Ying didn't force it, and continued to move down, her hand stopping at his trousers: "Then... do you want to wipe your lower body?"
Ji Lianqi looked at the hand in disbelief: "...No need for that. Thank you."
Thank you?
What's wrong with this guy today?
On the way to get some water, Ye Ying couldn't figure out why Ji Lianqi suddenly became a little weird.
But for a moment I couldn't tell.
Previously, Sheng Hao told her that Ji Lianqi was suspected of having nerve damage or necrosis in his legs and might not be able to recover to his original state in the future.
When she heard the news, she was worried about Ji Lianqi.
If he knew that this might be the case for him in the future, he would definitely go crazy.
She and Sheng Hao were both very clear about the impact this result would have on Ji Lianqi, so they unanimously decided on the spot not to tell him about this for the time being.
The specific situation will depend on the later, so she just appeared very calm.
After pouring the hot water, she came back and found Ji Lianqi reading the newspaper she brought back.
When he saw her come in, he just raised his eyes and glanced at her lightly without saying a word.
The atmosphere in the ward was once in a low-pressure state. Ye Ying could never guess why he suddenly became a different person. She tried to read his mind several times, but heard nothing!
How strange! Is he not thinking about anything now?
Or did he look like he already knew that his leg could not be healed?
But when she and Sheng Hao were talking outside, their voices were very low!
Thinking of this, Ye Ying wanted to test it out, "Ji Lianqi, how is your leg? Did Dr. Sheng tell you anything?"
Ji Lianqi was startled for a moment, then slowly raised his head, "He said he's recovered quite well."
"Then why do you look unhappy?
"No." Ji Lianqi continued to read the newspaper, "I am very happy, but you can't see it."
Ye Ying: “….”
Maybe she was overthinking it.
The next morning, after Ye Ying came back from Sheng Hao's clinic, she found that another nurse had been assigned to take care of Ji Lianqi. She subconsciously thought that she was switching shifts with Xiao Lan.
The nurse was standing with her back to the door, doing leg rehabilitation for Ji Lianqi.
Judging from this, she must have been arranged by Sheng Hao.
Sheng Hao said that he would try his best to help Ji Lianqi's leg recover, so he should be right.
The nurse heard someone coming in, turned around and saw that it was Ye Ying. She said in surprise, "Oh! So you are Comrade Ji's lover!"
