Lu Xiaoqiao's eyes were filled with worry: "How can that be possible? What if it gets serious?"
After saying this, he turned around and looked around, but there was no sign of a pharmacy.
"There's a drugstore outside my neighborhood. I'll buy it for you when we get there."
Zhou Qi was looking down at her. His clothes were a little big for her, and she looked even more petite and cute when she put them on. The temperature outside dropped sharply at night, and even with a coat on, her nose tip was still red from the cold.
"Yeah." Zhou Qizhen responded gently.
After having someone drive the car over, the two got in and drove towards Lu Xiaoqiao's home.
When they got to the neighborhood, before the car drove in, Lu Xiaoqiao asked him to park the car on the side of the road: "Mr. Zhou, please park the car in front of the drugstore."
When the car stopped, she opened the door, got out and ran towards the drugstore.
The staff at the drugstore recommended several kinds to her. One of them was easy to use, had a mild and stimulating smell, but was the most expensive, costing 125 yuan. Another one had a stronger smell, costing 45 yuan. Thinking about the current state of her wallet, Lu Xiaoqiao felt a little embarrassed.
"The one in the glass bottle is also good, but the smell is a little stronger than the one you have in your hand." Seeing her hesitation, the staff suggested.
Lu Xiaoqiao despised herself a little. If it weren't for her, the other person wouldn't have been hurt. She was still hesitating about a few dozen dollars. It seemed a bit stingy of her.
"Just take the expensive one."
I paid the money, took the medicine and walked out.
She walked straight to the driver's seat of the car, and Zhou Qizhen lowered the window when she got in.
"Mr. Zhou, take this medicine back and apply it. I'm here now, so you don't need to turn around and drive in. I can just walk in by myself."
Zhou Qi lowered his eyes and glanced at the medicine she handed over. It was hard to tell what he was thinking. After a long while, he said softly, "I don't know how to apply it."
Lu Xiaoqiao was stunned for a moment, then said, "It's okay, there's an instruction manual inside."
Zhou Qizhen paused for a few seconds and said slowly, "I can't wipe it alone."
Lu Xiaoqiao heard him say this and thought it made sense: "Then I'll help you apply it today, and tomorrow you can bring the medicine to the company and let Secretary Ding help you apply it."
Zhou Qizheng nodded and agreed: "Okay."
After getting back in the car, the two drove into the residential area. There were basically no parking spaces at this time, so Lu Xiaoqiao asked him to drive the car under a ginkgo tree next to the green belt.
Lu Xiaoqiao opened the plastic package, took out the medicine bottle and said, "Go outside and wipe it. This is a spray. Don't spray it on the car."
Zhou Qizheng said nonchalantly: "Nothing."
"Once you spray it on, you won't be able to get it off, and it smells really bad. Are you sure you like the smell?" Lu Xiaoqiao thought she knew Lin Lin from what she had heard. She knew that he couldn't stand any strange smell.
Zhou Qizheng hesitated for a moment, then reached for the coat behind the seat, which Lu Xiaoqiao had taken off and placed there after getting in the car: "Then you wear my coat, it's too cold outside."
Lu Xiaoqiao glanced at what he was wearing, a shirt and a suit vest, which was thinner than what she was wearing: "No, the sleeves are too long for me to spray you later, and besides, I'm not cold now."
Seeing that she was determined not to wear it, Zhou Qizhen had no choice but to give up.
When she opened the car door and was about to get out, she thought about the birthday present for him which was still in her bag. She had never given gifts to any other man except her father and brother, so she felt a little embarrassed after taking it out.
"Mr. Zhou, this is my birthday present for you. It's a wool felt keychain I made myself. I hope you like it."
She spent nearly five hundred dollars just to buy him this birthday present, which made her already poor life even worse.
She just spent over a hundred dollars on buying medicine for him. It seemed that she had spent all the money in her wallet on him since that unpleasant incident in the bar. Now after tidying up her pocket, she only had thirteen thousand dollars left.
The wool felt didn’t cost much, except for the keychain, which was a bit more expensive. There were cheaper ones, but they didn’t have the metallic texture, so she didn’t buy it because she was afraid it would fade.
Zhou Qizhen didn't expect that she had prepared a gift for him. His eyes were full of smiles and he couldn't hide it: "Thank you, can I open it now?"
"Of course you can. It's already yours."
Zhou Qi was carefully tearing off the outer packaging and opening the paper box inside. Inside was a 3D puppy-shaped keychain: "Is this a dumpling?"
Lu Xiaoqiao was surprised: "Did you see it?"
"Yeah, it's very similar, thank you, I like it very much." Zhou Qi really liked it, and she made it for him personally.
"As long as you like it." Lu Xiaoqiao didn't expect him to really like it. After all, he could use a lighter worth more than 200,000 yuan, so as long as he didn't mind, it would be fine.
After giving the gift, Lu Xiaoqiao felt relieved, took the medicine bottle, opened the car door and got out.
Zhou Qizhen followed suit.
She glanced at his shirt cuffs and said, "Mr. Zhou, please pull up your shirt cuffs."
Zhou Qizhen did as he was told. The shirt he was wearing had cufflinks on the cuffs, so he had to take them off. Lu Xiaoqiao had only heard about cufflinks but had never seen what they looked like in person.
She didn't know how he did it, but the cufflinks came off with just a slight movement of his left fingers. She was actually very curious about how he did it, but she didn't have the courage to ask.
Lu Xiaoqiao shook the medicine bottle twice, opened the cap, and said to him, "Put your hand out."
Zhou Qi was just reaching out his hand. Lu Xiaoqiao took his hand and sprayed it twice on the back of his hand. He shuddered slightly, perhaps because of the coolness of the medicine. “Does it feel cool or does it hurt?”
Zhou Qizhen said with an unnatural expression: "No, it's okay." His heart was beating so fast that he couldn't control it.
Lu Xiaoqiao handed him the bottle of medicine.
"Oh, take this, I'm going to rub it for you so that the medicine can be absorbed faster and you'll get better faster."
After he took the medicine bottle, Lu Xiaoqiao gently placed her hands on the back of his hand and rubbed it gently. Her eyes were only focused on the back of his injured hand and she didn't notice anything unusual about him.
Zhou Qizhen's heart had already been beating like a drum. He stared at Lu Xiaoqiao's cheek closely. Every movement of her white and slender fingers on the back of his hand was like an electric current that spread throughout his body, making him numb and tingling until he couldn't even breathe smoothly.
After rubbing for a while, Lu Xiaoqiao put down his hand and said, "Okay, the medicine has been absorbed. After taking a shower, spray it on yourself before going to bed. You will get better faster even without rubbing."
Zhou Qizheng flexed his wrist and said, "Okay, thank you!"
"You're too polite, Mr. Zhou." If it weren't for her, he wouldn't have been injured.
"There are wet wipes in the car, wipe your hands."
Lu Xiaoqiao politely replied, "No need, I'll just go upstairs and wash it. Then Mr. Zhou, please drive carefully on the road. I'll go upstairs first."
"Xiao Qiao, wait a moment."
Zhou Qizheng said awkwardly: "I have something to tell you, let's go in the car and talk."
After saying that, he opened the passenger door for her.
Thinking it was something about Lin Lin, Lu Xiaoqiao sat down without thinking much.
Zhou Qi was handing her a wet towel to wipe her hands, but after she sat in for a long time and wiped her hands, he didn't say a word.
Lu Xiaoqiao asked in confusion, "Boss Zhou, didn't you say you had something to say? What is it?"
Zhou Qi tightened his grip on the steering wheel and considered speaking.
"Xiao Qiao! What do you think of me?"
