Chapter 36 Jin Suiqing is finished – the most correct choice!
A clattering sound came from behind the screen, and above her head, Jin Shiyu's slightly urgent voice rang out: "Jin Suiqing?"
Upon hearing Jin Suiqing fall to the ground, Jin Shiyu rushed out disheveled, his hair loose, his clothes wide open, and a few stray hairs still clinging to the hem of his trousers.
Jin Suiqing didn't dare to look up, afraid of seeing something she shouldn't. She mumbled an "Mmm," which Jin Shiyu misunderstood as her falling hard and crying in pain.
Knowing that Jin Suiqing was afraid of pain, Jin Shiyu hurriedly disregarded his disheveled clothes, bent down, scooped Jin Suiqing into his arms, placed her in the crook of his arm, and looked up to ask, "Did you hurt your ankle?"
Jin Suiqing was shy and nervous. She dared not open her eyes to look at Jin Shiyu, afraid that if she saw his face, those things she shouldn't see would reappear before her eyes.
She hastily reached out to push, but her hand was pressed down heavily by firm, elastic muscles. Startled, Jin Suiqing quickly withdrew her hand, her body swaying, which startled Jin Shiyu as well. Ignoring his posture and movements, he hooked his palm back and gripped the inside of her knee. Through her clothes, Jin Suiqing felt the soft flesh of her inner thigh being pressed inward by Jin Shiyu, a sensation that was both painful and itchy. Involuntarily, she clamped her knee around his hand and cried out, "Brother!"
Hands, hands, hands!
Take your hands off me, they're so big they've been ripping off white powder!
Jin Shiyu misunderstood that the position was pressing on her ankle, so he hurriedly changed to wrap his arms around her waist. He couldn't control his strength and squeezed her a little. Jin Suiqing's waist trembled, her face turned as red as a boiled shrimp, and she went limp in his arms, unable to say a word.
Jin Shiyu was still hesitant: "Does your ankle hurt a lot? Bear with it, I'll take you to see a doctor right away."
After saying that, he was about to rush out of the room with Jin Suiqing in his arms.
This action really startled Jin Suiqing, who opened her eyes and said anxiously, "Brother! Brother, no, no!"
Jin Shiyu thought his sister just didn't want him to worry, so he rushed to the door and reached out to open it.
But what Jin Suiqing was thinking was that if the Jin family saw them entangled together like this, they would be doomed!
Considering her already precarious reputation, Jin Suiqing finally went all out. With her head full of white powder, she reached out and grabbed Jin Shiyu's neck, turning his head towards her: "Brother, hurry up and get dressed, ahhhhh..."
A quick glance revealed the curled edge of Jin Shiyu's trousers. Jin Suiqing instantly deflated, stammering, "Fur... fur fur fur fur fur..."
Kim Shi-ok was stunned.
The two remained frozen in place, staring at each other awkwardly.
Jin Suiqing blushed and breathed heavily, cupping Jin Shiyu's neck and face in her hands, their skin touching, instantly synchronizing with Jin Shiyu's reaction.
Jin Shiyu's delicate skin was sweating; his body temperature was rising rapidly, gradually becoming hot to the touch; the little finger pressed against his carotid artery was being pushed up again and again by the violently pulsating pulse, which was becoming increasingly fierce.
If people could predict their own death, they would definitely die an embarrassing death by exploding.
She snapped out of her daze, released Kim Shi-ok's neck as if shaking off a hot potato, and covered her face again: "Brother, put me down."
Jin Shiyu, with his neck stiff and shoulders rigid, carried Jin Suiqing and placed her on the ground.
After a long while, Jin Shiyu seemed to have calmed down and said in a steady voice, "What brings you here, sister?"
Jin Suiqing didn't dare to look at him: "I heard that my brother has woken up, and I want to bring him medicine."
“Okay,” Jin Shiyu said calmly, “I understand. I’ll come see my sister after I change my clothes.”
The person was clearly right in front of him, and Kim Shi-ok's "Come see me" sounded exceptionally smooth, as if the two of them were talking through a door.
Jin Suiqing then realized his incoherent speech and pretended to be stupid, saying, "Okay, I will wait for my brother to open the door."
Jin Suiqing wanted to leave the room, unsure whether to swing her arms or take a step first. Once she started moving, she forgot to open the door and bumped straight into it. Jin Shiyu opened the door for her, but Jin Suiqing's mind went blank. She lunged out, nearly tripping over the threshold.
Jin Shiyu quickly grabbed Jin Suiqing's forearm, his burning palm like a red-hot branding iron, igniting the shame that Jin Suiqing had just suppressed.
Don't touch me!
White powder, please don't go back into my brain! Help!
Jin Suiqing, embarrassed, raised his elbow and tried to shake it off, wanting to banish the indescribable thoughts from his mind. Unexpectedly, he couldn't shake Jin Shiyu; instead, his hand tightened around him. Jin Suiqing was stunned. He turned to look at Jin Shiyu and was startled by the sinister look in his eyes.
Jin Shiyu lowered his voice: "My sister thinks I'm dirty, right?"
"Brother?" Jin Suiqing asked, puzzled. "What...what's dirty?"
Kim Shi-ok paused for a moment, then released the grip: "Sorry."
After saying that, he slammed the door shut.
The door nearly hit Jin Suiqing; she froze, her face pale.
Soon, she recalled what had happened in the room, and blushed as she squatted down on the floor.
What to do, what to do, what to do?
I saw something I shouldn't have seen.
Jin Suiqing covered her face with the back of her hand, her heart pounding like a rice cake being tossed and turned.
You can't blame Kim Shi-ok for slamming the door in front of her. If someone suddenly barged in while she was doing something private, she would definitely slam the door too, and it might even be louder than Kim Shi-ok's slam.
Moreover, she sneaked in, which is even more sinful than barging in without knocking!
Jin Suiqing clasped her hands together in front of the door, thinking to herself, "Brother, please don't hold it against me. I'll be heartbroken if even the slightest bit of goodwill I've worked so hard to build up disappears..."
Just as she was questioning herself, the door opened.
Jin Shiyu tidied her hair and dressed neatly, then looked down at Jin Suiqing, who was squatting in front of the door: "What are you doing, little sister?"
Jin Suiqing put away her things and stood up abruptly: "No...it's nothing."
Jin Shiyu frowned: "Your injury hasn't fully healed yet, so be careful."
It would have been better if he hadn't brought it up, because the experience the two of them had shared inside the house came flooding back to him. Jin Suiqing blushed, fanned his cheeks with his hand, and whispered, "I...I know."
Jin Shiyu coughed lightly, changing the subject: "What brings my sister here?"
Jin Suiqing lowered her head and said, "I want to bring medicine to my brother."
Jin Shiyu looked her over: "Where's the medicine?"
Jin Suiqing searched for a while but couldn't find it. Then she remembered that she had left the medicine bottle in the room. She scratched her head and looked at Jin Shiyu with an awkward smile: "I...I forgot. I'll go back and get it."
She decided to get another bottle of medicine; she really didn't want to go into Kim Shi-ok's room again.
Jin Suiqing was afraid that she would dream about that thing tonight.
She turned to run, but before she could take a step, Jin Suiqing's wrist tightened. Jin Shiyu grabbed her, holding the porcelain bottle, and asked, "Is this it?"
Jin Suiqing's breath hitched, and she screamed inwardly: My dear brother, you've found her and you still have to ask? Are you making a fool of her?
Jin Suiqing said, "Brother has been found."
Kim Shi-ok nodded: "Mm."
“Now that my brother has been found,” Jin Suiqing said, twisting her wrist in struggle, “the medicine has been delivered, so I’m leaving now…”
Jin Suiqing cursed inwardly, "Since you've found her, let go! I'm leaving. I don't want to step into this courtyard again this month!"
Jin Shiyu not only didn't let go, but gripped even tighter, staring at Jin Suiqing for a moment before a kind smile suddenly appeared on her face: "Although my sister brought medicine, I don't know how to use it..."
Jin Suiqing struggled for a long time but could not break free from Jin Shiyu's iron palm. After hearing half of what he said, alarm bells rang in his heart, and he secretly thought that something was wrong.
Kim Shi-ok actually laughed.
He's definitely going to say something earth-shattering again!
Jin Suiqing struggled even more: "Brother, brother, I'll send someone to deliver the prescription to you later..."
Jin Shiyu ignored him and continued, "Sister, please stay and apply the medicine for me."
Before Jin Suiqing could shake her head in refusal, Jin Shiyu added, "You've slept with me so many times before, and now you won't even take care of me once?"
Jin Suiqing quickly explained, "Of course not, it's just..."
Kim Shi-ok chuckled self-deprecatingly, "You just think your brother is dirty, right?"
Jin Suiqing stopped struggling and stared at Jin Shiyu with the same look she had given him as if he were a lunatic. After a long while, Jin Suiqing closed her eyes and said coldly, "I don't mind that you're dirty, brother. Since you don't know how to use the medicine, I'll help you apply it."
Jin Shiyu released her wrist, stepped aside, and silently urged Jin Suiqing to go inside.
Her brother drove her to her death, not even giving her a chance to escape.
Realizing this, Jin Suiqing bravely straightened his chest and stepped into the house as if he were being led to the execution ground with a gun to his back.

Jin Shiyu sat on the edge of the bed and looked at Jin Suiqing, who was standing in front of the screen with her hands clasped together: "What's next?"
Jin Suiqing was bewildered: "What, next?"
Jin Shiyu crossed his legs: "My sister wants to change my dressing. The dressing is in your hands. What should I do?"
Jin Suiqing was speechless and choked with emotion.
What are you doing, sir? What exactly do you want to do?
Jin Suiqing cried out in his heart, stammering, "Take...take off..."
"Take off what?" Kim Shi-ok tilted his head.
Jin Suiqing gritted her teeth: "Take off your clothes."
“Okay,” Jin Shiyu obeyed, peeling off layers of clothing as if removing the crust of a pastry to reveal her injured shoulder. “And now, little sister?”
She's going all out!
Jin Suiqing strode confidently toward the bedside, but stopped abruptly as he approached. He whispered, "Brother, please remove the gauze yourself."
Jin Shiyu took apart two circles and then stopped, saying, "I can't reach the back."
Jin Suiqing was dumbfounded: "Brother... what do you mean?"
Jin Shiyu smiled and said, "I'll trouble you to help me take it apart, little sister."
The little figure in Jin Suiqing's mind screamed incessantly, clutching its head and banging it against the ground. "Jin Shiyu is so handsome. Why is he laughing so much today? And why can't he understand human speech at all? How can someone so handsome have such a donkey-like thing..." As the clouds drifted by, the last nerve holding her rationality snapped. Jin Suiqing gave up and rushed towards Jin Shiyu, quickly tearing off the gauze from his shoulder.
Standing and bending over was uncomfortable, so Jin Suiqing lifted his knee and placed it between Jin Shiyu's legs. Jin Suiqing pressed on Jin Shiyu's strong shoulder, bit open the bottle stopper, and poured the powdered medicine onto Jin Shiyu's wound, saying vaguely, "It hurts a bit, brother, bear with it."
Jin Shiyu blindly pulled out the wooden arrow, widening the wound. Due to excessive blood loss, the recovery was poor. The newly grown tender flesh surrounded the dark wound, trembling with Jin Shiyu's breathing.
The wound was truly horrifying. Forgetting her embarrassment, Jin Suiqing felt a pang of sadness and whispered, "Brother, does it still hurt?"
Jin Shiyu stared at Jin Suiqing, who was applying medicine to him. His sister's warm palms were pressed against his chest, and the dark thoughts in his heart were about to become impossible to hide. After staring for a long time, Jin Shiyu stretched out two fingers and pried the bottle stopper out of Jin Suiqing's mouth.
He said calmly, "It doesn't hurt."
He wasn't lying; he really wasn't afraid of pain. In fact, he felt a faint excitement as his sister pressed herself against his skin, his hair standing on end and his body trembling.
His sister seemed to sense his pain, and her movements became even gentler, like a feather.
Kim Si-ok is a germaphobe; he hates sticky liquids and curly, unruly hair.
Kim Shi-ok thought those things were dirty.
Others' things are dirty, but his are even dirtier.
Except for hers.
The moment Jin Suiqing shook off his hand, the embarrassment of being caught in the act of intimacy vanished instantly.
Kim Shi-ok felt only anger.
He had to admit that he cared a lot about what she thought.
Sure enough, forcing Jin Suiqing into the house was the best thing he did today.
There is none other than this!
Now, Kim Si-ok knows that no matter what he does, his sister will not find him dirty.
Jin Suiqing was oblivious. She gently blew on his wound and mumbled, "Blow...blow it and it will heal faster."
Kim Shi-ok stared at her pouting lips for a moment, then quietly looked away and said in a hoarse voice, "Yes, thank you, little sister."
