Chapter 81 A Night for Two
"Doctor Wen."
"Captain? What's wrong?"
Gu Chao frowned: "She seemed very uncomfortable when she drank porridge today, what happened?"
Wen Minjun pondered for a moment and said, "Maybe the fracture hasn't healed yet, so she feels pain with the slightest movement. It's also possible that she just woke up and her stomach isn't used to the food. It's better to switch to a liquid diet tomorrow."
"Um."
"Have you asked her to sit up for a while? Lying down for too long will cause poor blood circulation, which is bad for the body."
"have."
"That's nothing. Feel free to come see me if you have any further symptoms."
Gu Chao nodded.
Now it was time to wash up and go to bed, so the two separated. Gu Chao turned and went into the bathroom on the first floor, while Wen Minjun went upstairs to help Lu Ming clean his body.
Usually, Gu Chao would take a bath in Lu Ming's room nearby, but now that she was awake, she naturally couldn't do that.
He also thought about moving back to his own room to sleep, but he was afraid that she would not be able to sleep well at night because she had just woken up, or something might happen. He was worried, so he gave up the idea.
He turned off the water, raised his hand, and all the water droplets on his body and hair fell to the ground. He was dry again, put on his clothes, and went upstairs.
When he opened the door, the room was pitch black with only a small desk lamp on. Lu Ming was lying quietly on the bed with his eyes closed, as if he had fallen asleep.
But he noticed that her eyelashes were trembling slightly.
He paused and silently raised the corners of his lips.
This little liar.
However, he seemed very dissatisfied with his expression, and soon put away his smile, returning to his expressionless look.
She walked to her little bed, picked up the clothes she had washed this morning and put them back in the closet, then turned back and lay down on the bed.
Lu Ming waited all night, but the person who showed up wasn't that strange person, but Dr. Wen. She helped him wash himself, brushed his teeth, and watched him go to the bathroom with a red face. Then they said good night and left the room.
Not long after, she heard footsteps again, and this time she recognized the owner of the voice.
She didn't want to pay attention to him, so she quickly closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep. She heard him open the wardrobe and lie down on the bed again. After a long period of silence, she quietly opened her eyes a little and looked over.
He seemed to have fallen asleep.
Only then did she open her eyes and look at the man with confidence.
He folded his hands under his head. It was really cramped for him to sleep on such a camp bed with a height of nearly 1.9 meters. His feet were almost sticking out of the bed, and he might fall off if he turned over.
Is this how he has been guarding her for so many days?
Thinking of what Dr. Wen said, and seeing his dark circles and thin body, she felt a little sour, guilty and... happy?
Uh, why am I happy...
She was afraid she had a brain injury...
But, taking care of her must be tiring and hard, right? You can't sleep well at night, and you have to go out to find supplies and kill zombies during the day.
Also, I heard that he saved me because he arrived in time.
He is her savior now. Shouldn't she not care about his attitude? After all, her life was saved by him, and she doesn't know if he was injured as a result.
She was so weak and stupid, she deserved to be despised. How could she have the right to force the other party to put on a forced smile for her?
She had never been like this before, but for some reason, when she woke up this time, she was unusually sensitive and concerned about his emotions.
After thinking about it for a long time, she came to her senses and found that she had been staring at him in a daze for a long time.
What's wrong with her? Why does she keep thinking about him?
Go to sleep!
No matter what, you should heal your wounds first and not trouble others anymore!
Thinking of this, she quickly closed her eyes and continued to hypnotize herself.
After the burning gaze disappeared, Gu Chao still didn't dare to move. He waited until her breathing gradually became regular, then he slightly moved his stiff body, opened his eyes and looked at her.
A peaceful sleeping face.
He sighed silently.
What should he do with her?
After staring for a while, he quietly got up and turned off the desk lamp, and the room fell into complete darkness.
However, Lu Ming was awakened by a dull pain in his stomach before he had slept for long.
She didn't open her eyes. When she heard Gu Chao's steady breathing, she quietly raised her left hand and gently rubbed her abdomen, trying to make her stomach feel better.
However, after a while, not only did the pain not improve, it became more and more painful.
She was in so much pain that sweat broke out on her forehead and the bandage seemed to be a little wet.
This disappointing body!
She despised herself so much, why had she become so fragile now?
No, I can't let him know. He finally got a good night's sleep tonight, I can't wake him up again.
Just hold on for a while, everything will be fine as long as you can get through it.
However, the dull pain in her stomach gradually turned into colic. She couldn't help but curl up sideways, covering her abdomen tightly with her hands. This posture pressed on the wounds on her shoulders and chest. In short, she felt pain everywhere. She gasped and couldn't help but groan softly.
A sigh seemed to be heard from behind her, and a big hand reached out and pressed on her cold belly. She could seem to feel the warmth in his palm through her clothes.
The man asked, "Stomachache? Why didn't you tell me?"
His tone was so harsh and fierce that she could almost imagine him frowning and looking serious.
She suddenly felt aggrieved, her throat choked, her eyes became warm, and a tear flowed down her cheek onto the pillow.
She turned her face to the side, not wanting him to see her tears. She shook her head, took two deep breaths, and said in a calm tone, "No...it's okay, just a little bit. It will be fine in a while."
The sound was as weak as a cat's purr, and if you listened carefully you could even hear the trembling in it.
When Gu Chao heard her say this, he became furious and clenched his fists. He really wanted to just ignore her and let her fend for herself.
But seeing her sweating, biting her lips tightly, and breathing softly, she looked pitiful, I really couldn't bear it.
He has fallen into the hands of this woman!
He got up from the bed, opened the door and went out.
Before Lu Ming could guess where he had gone, he quickly came in with a glass of water and two pills.
He turned on the light, gently helped her up, let her take the medicine and drink some water, then put her down and gently rubbed her stomach with one hand.
With a two-pronged approach, Lu Ming's rumbling stomach finally calmed down soon. She breathed a sigh of relief and then realized that the man was still sitting next to her.
She couldn't help but look up at him. His dark eyes reflected the light and her figure. The soft light made his expression look much softer, not as fierce as before.
She whispered, "Thank you."
He didn't speak.
She added, "I'm sorry to trouble you again."
But after hearing this, Gu Chao's face suddenly darkened. He looked at her deeply, stood up, turned off the light, lay back on his bed, and ignored her again.
Lu Ming was confused: "???"
What happened? What on earth had she done to offend him?
