Chapter 75: Injuries on Qin Xu's Body

Qin Xu's room had already been cleaned up. After the three of them entered the room, the doctor opened the tool box and prepared, and he took off his shirt.

Li Nuo's eyes widened instantly, not caring whether looking at him like this would offend others, and looked him up and down.

Qin Xu's body was covered in bruises, some of which were even swollen. His left rib was wrapped in gauze, which was now oozing with blood.

Not to mention those minor wounds, the entire upper body was so horrible that Li Nuo frowned instantly.

The doctor felt that the atmosphere at the scene was a bit strange, but he still remembered his job. He pointed to the chair beside him and motioned Qin Xu to sit down.

Li Nuo frowned as he looked at the wound under his ribs. Seeing the doctor preparing to treat it, he thought that Qin Xu would not want others to see him in pain, so he turned around and left. "I'm going out first. Call me after the treatment is finished."

After he closed the door, Qin Xu sighed softly. He had not intended to let him know that he was injured, but he was seen anyway.

The doctor looked at him and said, "You have to explain it clearly later, otherwise the kid who didn't know you were injured and dragged you around will feel guilty."

Qin Xu nodded, "Treat him."

It took almost half an hour for the treatment to be completed. When the doctor came out, he saw Li Nuo leaning against the wall with his head down and looking at the ground.

The doctor was very friendly to this gentle young man who was loved by his master, and said immediately: "It has been treated. You can come in and take a look."

Li Nuo's eyes were moist. "Is Brother Qin in a bad condition?"

"Only the one below the ribs is more serious. It's not fatal. As long as you take good care of it, it will heal and you'll be fine."

"What about the bruises?"

"It will be fine after a while. It would be better to let him lie down for a few days."

Li Nuo nodded to show that he understood. After the doctor left, he hesitated whether to go in and take a look, but the doctor said that he needed to have a good rest. However, this tangle soon ended because Qin Xu opened the door, "Why don't you come in?"

"The doctor said you need to rest."

"Not yet. Come in."

He made way for her, and Li Nuo pursed her lips and walked into the house.

The gauze on Qin Xu's body had been replaced. Perhaps because he had lost a lot of blood, his face looked a little pale. It was like this before. Li Nuo secretly regretted why he didn't notice it and took him to the greenhouse. He should have forced him to rest.

A big hand fell on his head, "I said I wanted to go for a walk, I don't blame you."

Li Nuo then asked cautiously, "Which one is the stab wound?"

"...About the same."

His eyes widened. He had only seen this kind of thing in movies, so seeing it in real life would inevitably bring shock.

"Then why are you still here? Shouldn't you go to the hospital as soon as possible?"

"The doctor just said that I just need to rest and change the dressing. Is there any better place to rest than here?"

"......That being said, what if there are other conditions, such as the wound getting inflamed or something," Li Nuo felt bad after saying this, "I'm not cursing you, I'm just saying that sometimes such conditions may occur." His voice lowered.

Qin Xu touched his head and said, "Don't worry, the doctor is very professional. I won't joke with my own body."

Seeing that Li Nuo was still trying to persuade him, Qin Xu continued, "Let's not talk about this anymore. I just broke out in a sweat and I'm going to take a shower. You should go out and have a rest first."

Hearing this, Li Nuo wrinkled his nose and asked, "Can you touch water now?"

"But I can't rest well like this, my body is sticky," Qin Xu was also a little distressed, "How about you help me wash it?"

He was joking, but Li Nuo thought about it seriously and said, "Okay, I'll help you wipe it."

Li Nuo's words made Qin Xu a little dazed. No one had ever said that before. In the past, when he was injured, he had to apply waterproof tape and clean it himself.

While he was still in a trance, Linuo took action directly. He walked into the bathroom, tested the water temperature, and found it was just right. He put the towel in and squeezed out the water.

Qin Xu was even more hesitant at this time. Although Li Nuo had seen the body before, there was still a difference between a cursory look and a careful look.

Without giving him a chance to refuse, Li Nuo waved him into the bathroom. Under the strong light of the lamp, Li Nuo saw Qin Xu's body at close range and then held his breath.

I had only seen the front before, but this time, I saw that Qin Xu's back was also covered with wounds, many old scars, new wounds and old wounds overlapping each other. Li Nuo felt that his body was hurting unconsciously, and he didn't dare to clean it easily.

"It wasn't you who did it, why do you look so sad?"

Since he was seen, Qin Xu had nothing to say. He just looked at Li Nuo's frowning face and found it funny. "If you feel uncomfortable watching me, I'll do it myself."

He wanted to reach out and take the towel, but Li Nuo refused, "You can't wipe my back, and if you reach out your hand, it will open the wound again."

"Then you wipe the back, I'll do the front myself, there are more wounds."

Li Nuo was also afraid that he would accidentally touch the area under his ribs, so he nodded, took out another towel, twisted it dry and handed it to him.

Qin Xu's back reminded him of the mercenaries in the movies, especially the many old wounds.

He couldn't help but ask out of curiosity: "Why are there so many wounds? I saw the same on his hands before..."

The novel never mentioned Qin Xu's past, at least not in the part that Li Nuo saw. Because he was the protagonist, he did not suffer in the plot. Today, Li Nuo finally saw it.

"They are just old injuries."

“It looked very serious at the time.”

Li Nuo reached out and touched the old scars. Qin Xu paused and his back muscles moved unconsciously.

"Oh, sorry."

Li Nuo picked up the towel again and wiped it carefully, leaving behind the scars. Qin Xu still had a good figure, with broad shoulders, narrow waist and long legs. She looked at Li Nuo with lust.

Comparing his own small body, Li Nuo felt a little envious. It wasn't that he wanted to train to be like Qin Xu, he just hoped that he could have some muscles, a thin layer would be enough, to improve his physical fitness and not catch a cold if he got caught in the rain.

I heard that swimming is a full-body exercise, so why not go swimming later?

After carefully wiping his back, Li Nuo looked at the bruises and said, "Apply some medicine."

"It makes clothes dirty after applying it, and it's sticky and uncomfortable."

"But it will heal faster if you apply it. I'll help you apply it."

Before Qin Xu could refuse, Li Nuo ran out and brought in the medicine left by the doctor.

As Li Nuo's small hands gently rubbed his back, Qin Xu relaxed his muscles a little and stopped being so tense.

The special smell of the ointment lingering around his nose made Qin Xu feel a little dazed.

It's such a disgusting feeling. When I was a child, no matter how much pain it was, that person would not send me to the hospital. I could only endure it silently. The scars on my back could not be applied with ointment, and they would fester in hot weather. It was so painful that I couldn't walk.

Although I later had the help of tools, it was still painful to apply it every time, so I didn't have much expectations.

"Does it hurt?"

Li Nuo's question brought him back from his painful memories. "It doesn't hurt. You were very careful."

"How did you get these injuries? Why did you fight with others?"

“…Is this important?”

"You are injured. I am very worried about Li Yan. You are beaten black and blue..." Li Nuo answered in a low voice.

"........It turns out you are not worried about me." Qin Xu was a little disappointed.

"I'm worried, too. It looks terrible."

“That’s because the opponent is so big.”

The truck is not very big.

"How big is it? Brother Qin, you must be almost 190cm tall." Li Nuo was very surprised.

"Two meters up."

"Wow, that's high. So why are we fighting?"

"There are some reasons, and don't worry, Li Yan is fine."

Qin Xu talked about this and that and finally managed to get away with the matter.

........

With someone to keep him company, Li Nuo was finally not so bored. When Qin Xu was resting, he would read a book beside him so as not to disturb him. When he woke up, they would chat.

Even if Qin Xu remembered, Li Nuo would persuade him to continue resting.

He also said he would help Qin Xu wash his hair, but it turned out that he was not very caring and the foam flowed into Qin Xu's eyes and ears.

Li Nuo had no choice but to stop and hand over the work to the staff.

"Shall we watch a movie today?"

After Qin Xu changed the medicine, Li Nuo came running over.

"Anything except what I saw yesterday."

"Why? Isn't it beautiful?"

"You can watch that kind of cartoon yourself."

The two of them have different preferences for video genres. In the first two days, Qin Xuqian followed Li Nuo's preferences.

"Well, let's see what you like today."

Afterwards, Li Nuo regretted saying this.

“Ahhhhh, the head, that guy’s head exploded!”

The screams in his ears made Qin Xu suspect that he was going deaf.

Li Nuo covered his eyes tightly, curled up into a ball and snuggled up to Qin Xu, but he couldn't help but open his hands a little.

“Don’t look at it…”

"No, it's almost over. I want to finish watching it."

This movie tells a story about revenge, and it is quite exciting to watch, with a lot of fighting scenes.

"Brother, did you also take revenge on the person who hurt you?"

"Of course."

"oh."

Li Nuo didn't say anything to dissuade him. The character in the novel was able to kill people, so it was obvious that he would not let the other person go.

When I asked him the reason before, Qin Xu fooled me. I guess he didn't want to tell me.

The film was over. There weren't any bloody scenes in the latter part, but the revelation of the protagonist's past made Li Nuo feel uncomfortable.

He sighed in frustration, "Why give birth to a child if you can't treat it well?"

The protagonist spent his childhood in misery. He was abused, abandoned, and wandered by his parents, and finally ended up with no return.

Li Nuo thought of his father, Lao Deng, who now only cared about asking for money.

Oh, and that doesn't even include my mother, who abandoned the family when I was a kid.

Seeing that he was in a low mood, Qin Xu, who had already investigated his family situation, knew that he was thinking about his parents, so he comforted him: "Not all parents are like that."

After thinking about it, I felt that such words would not have much effect on persuading someone who was suffering, so I had to change the subject, "Do you think you would be a good father?"

Linuo looked up at him and thought carefully, "I'm not sure if I will have children, but if I do, I will be a good father."

I have such a weak body that even if I have a child, he will be a sickly baby. Why should I bring him into this world to suffer?

"Are you sure?"

Li Nuo smiled brightly, "Because I'm still a good person."

Qin Xu covered Li Nuo's smiling face with his big hands, "But maybe those parents were originally very good people."

“Hmm—”

“People change.”

Li Nuo thought of Lao Deng and fell silent.

After a long while, he said, "I still think that if it is my own child, I should treat him well. If I knew it would end up like that, I should not have given birth to it in the first place."

"So, do you regret being born?"

“.......”

Li Nuo buried his head in the pillow and said sullenly, "No, I think it's pretty good now."

"It's just my parents..."

He was talking about his original parents. That memory has been lost and he can't remember them.
