Qin Yan paused slightly and looked at her with raised eyebrows.
Ning Xi's face flushed with embarrassment, and she lowered her head slightly and said, "Youyou told me that it was you who helped. I misunderstood. I'm sorry."
Seeing her sincere apology, the previously blocked anger suddenly eased.
Qin Yan pulled the corner of his mouth, then quickly suppressed it, pretending to be nonchalant and said, "It's okay."
Ning Xi raised her head and just when she thought he was actually not bad, she heard him say again: "After all, you are my wife in name only." So it is my duty to help you.
This is what Qin Yan meant, but it sounded different to Ning Xi.
After all, she is his nominal wife. If she is really locked up, it will cause trouble for him.
Ning Xi understood.
The slight strange emotion he had just felt faded away, and he just said, "Thank you anyway. Don't worry, I will return the favor."
Hearing her polite words, Qin Yan's brows, which had been relaxed, frowned again.
He opened his thin lips slightly, and just as he was about to say something, Ning Xi changed the subject and asked, "Mr. Qin, would you like some noodles?"
Qin Yan paused and looked at the Yangchun noodles on the table.
"If you want to join, I'll cook you another one."
"No, eat it yourself." Qin Yan withdrew his gaze and did not feel hungry.
"Okay, I haven't eaten for a day, so I'm a little hungry." Since he didn't want to eat, Ning Xi didn't hesitate and immediately sat down to eat noodles.
Qin Yan was about to leave, but when he heard her words, he turned back and frowned, "Why don't you eat? You should know better than me how important good health is."
Ning Xi took a bite of noodles, looked at him and said, "I received a call from the police station during lunch, and I came back to clean up, so I was late."
So, that’s not what she thought.
Qin Yan didn't say anything else, turned around and went back to his room to get clothes and take a shower.
Ning Xi quickly ate a bowl of noodles, and by the time she finished cleaning up, it was already past two in the morning.
She had to go to the hospital tomorrow, so she immediately went to the bathroom to brush her teeth and get ready for bed.
Just when she was brushing her teeth, she found a pain-relieving plaster in the trash.
She turned her head and looked at Qin Yan's room, as if thinking about something.
Qin Yan lay on his bed. The pain in his lower back made him afraid to lie down and sleep, for fear that he would not be able to get up the next day.
That is, he will reveal his truest self when no one is around.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
He immediately regained his vigilance. "Who?"
"It's me, Mr. Qin, can you open the door?"
Qin Yan: “…”
He frowned and stared at the door as if he was looking at something dangerous.
Could it be that she finally couldn't help but want to do something to him?
Thinking of this, he subconsciously wrapped the quilt tightly around him.
Ning Xi, who was outside, looked at the door that hadn't moved for a long time and tilted her head in confusion, "Mr. Qin?"
"What are you going to do?" Qin Yan's voice was cold, and even if you listened carefully, you could hear a hint of nervousness.
"I saw some painkiller ointment in the bathroom. Are you feeling unwell?" Ning Xi stood outside the door and felt that his defensiveness was speechless.
What is there for him to be afraid of as a man? She won’t eat him.
Qin Yan still frowned, not expecting her to notice the pain-relieving ointment.
Ning Xi was tired when she saw that he didn't open the door.
But thinking that he had helped her a lot today, she patiently said, "I have a very good pain-relieving and blood-dissolving medicine here. If you need it, you can use it. Spray a little and rub it for about ten minutes..."
Ning Xi explained how to use it, and finally said, "I've left it at the door. If you need it, take it."
After saying that, she put down the potion and turned back to her room.
Qin Yan listened to the silence outside the door, hesitated, got out of bed and opened the door.
There was no one outside the door, only a bottle of dark brown potion like toilet water placed at the door of his room.
He picked up the potion, glanced into the next room, and finally took it in with a complicated expression.
At six o'clock in the morning, after only four hours of sleep, Ning Xi woke up driven by her biological clock.
He narrowed his eyes, took out the silver needle, and inserted it into his own refreshing point, then walked out feeling refreshed.
When she finished washing up and came out of the bathroom, she saw Qin Yan moving out with a painful expression, supporting his lower back.
However, the moment he saw her, he immediately straightened his back and there was no pain on his face, as if it was all Ning Xi's illusion.
Ning Xi: “…”
"Well, good morning!" Qin Yan nodded at her as if nothing had happened.
Ning Xi nodded slightly, and watched him walk up to her calmly. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart: You have great patience, but I'm sweating coldly, so I'd better not endure it anymore!
"Mr. Qin, you didn't use the potion I gave you?" Ning Xi asked.
"No, I'm fine!" Qin Yan said expressionlessly, enduring the pain that was countless times more painful than yesterday.
He walked up to Ning Xi, glanced at the bathroom and asked, "Are you still using it?"
Ning Xi shook her head and took the initiative to give up her seat.
Qin Yan walked in stiffly and was about to close the door when he heard Ning Xi say, "Mr. Qin, if you don't take good care of your back injury, it will leave sequelae."
Qin Yan paused, turned around and frowned, "I'm not hurt."
Ning Xi, who hated disobedient patients the most: "..."
Seeing his face pale from straining, Ning Xi suddenly found it a little funny. She crossed her arms and said with a half-smile, "Okay, but as a doctor, I still want to remind you that back injuries can be serious or minor, especially for men. It will affect your lover's experience in the future, okay?"
“!!!”
What kind of lewd words are these?!
