Chapter 253 Business Trip
The light in the bathroom only revealed the outline of his deep body.
But it couldn't illuminate his expression.
Mu Yuan leaned over and turned on the bedside lamp.
The dark room was instantly lit up with warm light.
Mu Yuan said sleepily: "Why are you so late today?"
Huo Min's uneasiness was hidden behind his dark pupils: "Did I wake you up?"
"No, I just fell asleep too, I'm not sound asleep yet."
As she spoke, she threw back the covers and got out of bed.
She walked towards him in her slippers.
Huo Min's feet felt as heavy as lead.
He was motionless, only his eyes, as dark as the night sky, moved gently.
Following closely behind her who was standing in front of him.
"Does the wound hurt today?" Mu Yuan's gaze fell on his arm.
But those wounds were covered by long sleeves.
She can't see.
Then she lifted her eyelids, looked at him, and whispered, "Let me see."
The bitterness was like waves, hitting the reefs in his heart.
Huo Min pursed his lips tightly, suppressing his surging emotions, and tried his best to maintain a calm tone: "It's okay, it doesn't hurt."
She took another light step forward.
The eyelashes that seemed to be able to pry the reefs lifted slightly, revealing a pair of pearly almond eyes: "It is impossible not to hurt."
How did those bloody wounds come about?
She still remembers it vividly.
Such a big bloody wound.
The first day of recovery will definitely be stinging and painful.
"It's not shameful if it hurts, let me see." She muttered and insisted again.
Huo Min's big hands hanging down by his legs unconsciously clenched.
Finally, he lowered his eyes, rolled up his sleeves, and revealed the bandaged wound.
Some blood seeped through the gauze.
Mu Yuan's eyebrows furrowed immediately: "The wound opened? Why is it bleeding?"
"It's okay." He tried to pull off his sleeve.
But just as he had this intention, Mu Yuan grabbed his wrist.
He stopped moving immediately.
Looking at her pretty face, her eyes and eyebrows were filled with heartache.
"Take a shower first, and then I'll reapply the medicine for you."
Huo Min said in a deep voice, "No need. I'll go to the hospital tomorrow."
As soon as the words fell.
Mu Yuan glared at him.
Huo Min's Adam's apple rolled slightly, and the words that were about to rise to his lips to continue to refuse were kicked back into his stomach.
Quiet night.
I was woken up by the sound of plastic wrap being torn off.
Mu Yuan carefully wrapped his wound with plastic wrap and gently reminded him, "Avoid water when you take a bath, otherwise you will get infected."
Her brows were furrowed, her face full of seriousness as she carefully checked whether it was sealed tightly.
She lowered her head.
The faint fragrance of roses behind the slender neck, rendered even more tranquil by the moonlight, slowly rises in the space.
Until she raised her head: "Okay, you can go take a shower."
He suddenly woke up from the faint fragrance.
My will was lost in it, and I don’t know how long it lasted.
I know that I am reluctant to leave even if I blink my eyelids for a second.
"Okay." He finally opened his eyes and stepped into the bathroom.
Mu Yuan sat at the end of the bed.
She pulled the quilt in front of her, hugged her knees, and waited for him to come out of the shower.
The bathroom door opened slower than expected.
But she didn't care.
Just assume that he is injured, so his speed will not be fast.
When Huo Min came out, he saw her still waiting awake.
His eyes dimmed, but it disappeared in an instant.
"Not sleepy?"
Mu Yuan slightly curved her eyes: "It's okay, I took a nap at noon."
"Um."
When he leaned over, the scent of shower gel mixed with moisture wafted over.
Fragrant and hot.
It makes people feel soft-hearted.
Mu Yuan changed her posture from hugging him to kneeling, and lowered her head to untie the plastic wrap wrapped around his arm.
Then.
Follow the procedures to disinfect, apply medicine and bandage.
She found that Huo Min was very taciturn tonight.
Although he doesn't talk much usually.
But tonight he was particularly quiet.
But he is taciturn.
Every time, she opened her eyes.
I always run into his gaze that is deep enough to drown you.
He doesn't speak.
His eyes did the talking.
Whenever she wanted to go deeper, she would make sounds by looking into each other's eyes.
But he lowered his eyes and stared at the wound.
She felt a strange feeling in her heart, the meaning of which was unknown.
Maybe I'm too sleepy, or maybe my mind is not sensitive enough at this moment.
I can’t grasp what this weirdness contains.
I inexplicably felt that the atmosphere was a little stagnant at this moment.
She then spoke softly, like an ordinary couple chatting about random things before falling asleep: "What did you have for lunch today?"
He said, "You like the fast food at that Cantonese restaurant."
"Want some baked eggplant?"
"Lily shrimp balls."
“That one is delicious.”
"I'll have someone deliver it home tomorrow."
"No need," she said hurriedly, meeting his dark pupils, her voice soft and gentle as she spoke, "Auntie Zhang has been making hospital meals for Mom lately. They're quite light and healthy, so I'll eat along, too. Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to finish all the ingredients I buy by myself."
"Yeah." He glanced at the re-bandaged injury.
He took his hand back, and said in a low voice, "That's enough. Let's go to sleep."
He turned around and got on the bed from the other side.
Lie down straight.
Mu Yuan's gaze moved to his closed black eyes as he lay down.
The speech I had been thinking about for the whole day was forced to be abandoned.
Forget it, let’s wait until tomorrow.
He comes back so late and looks very tired.
The condition for a long conversation all night is that both parties are in a good mental state.
But now, it's not just him.
She was obviously a little sleepy too.
She covered her mouth and yawned, screwing the cap back on the bottle tightly and lying down next to him.
Huo Min's black eyelashes drooped, and the warm yellow light from the bedside lamp cast a green shadow on him.
Mu Yuan pursed her lips again and again.
Finally, he just whispered, "Good night."
He turned around and turned off the bedside lamp.
"Snap".
Darkness brings tranquility and dreams.
-
When Mu Yuan woke up.
Huo Min was standing in front of a full-length mirror, tying his tie skillfully.
Hear the sound.
He looked at her in the mirror with his deep black eyes, and his fingers hooked on the tie paused.
"It's still early, you can continue to sleep." His voice was filled with the hoarseness unique to the early morning.
Mu Yuan glanced at the dawn outside the window and asked in confusion: "What happened this morning? Why are you up so early?"
"On business trip."
Mu Yuan's sleepiness disappeared in an instant.
The half-closed almond-shaped eyes opened immediately.
Then I saw a black, high-end leather travel handbag at the door.
Mu Yuan was surprised: "So sudden, how long will you be away?"
A hint of sadness flashed across Huo Min's eyes: "I'm not sure, it depends on the project situation."
Mu Yuan was bewildered: "Where are you going?"
"Province T."
"Ah... so far."
From here to Province T, they are in two completely opposite directions.
She saw his half-tied tie and hurriedly turned over to get out of bed: "Your hand is injured, let me help you tie it."
"No need." He said calmly.
Mu Yuan paused after getting out of bed and looked at him again.
He quickly tied a nice-looking Windsor knot.
Mu Yuan's almond-shaped eyes were slightly startled.
Watch him stride to the door and pick up the handbag.
"You go back to sleep. I have a flight to catch."
“Huo…”
He decisively closed the door, sealing all the words she had not yet said behind it.
Mu Yuan was still a little confused at this moment.
A moment later.
This moment of confusion was destroyed by a strong feeling of discomfort.
Suddenly I felt.
They seemed to have returned to the state of five years ago when they had no personal relationship and no emotions.
