After a moment, he reached out and gently rubbed his shoulder, silently grumbling to himself.
Knowing I'm weak, why did you hit me so hard?
...
Damn it, I misspoke.
What an idiot, he doesn't know his own strength.
The sun rises in the east and sets in the west as usual, and night falls on the horizon as always.
In a room with soft lighting
Xiao Wujie lay in Chu Liyue's arms, a thin blanket covering his body.
A young nurse gently pulled open half of Xiao Wujie's collar, revealing his fair and smooth shoulders and upper arms.
He took a syringe, lightly wiped his upper arm with a cotton swab dipped in disinfectant, and instantly the thin, sharp needle pierced a vein in his arm.
Xiao Wujie groaned in pain, gasped for breath, and immediately buried his face in Chu Liyue's arms.
"It's okay, it won't hurt, it'll be over soon."
Chu Liyue gently stroked the back of his head with her slender fingers, and softly pressed her red lips to his earlobe.
After the injection, Chu Liyue reached out and took the sterilized cotton swab, pressing it against the bleeding spot and gently coaxing the patient:
"Okay, it's over, it doesn't hurt anymore."
Xiao Wujie, who had been pricked with an acupuncture needle, lay in her arms, his eyelashes fluttering slightly, his voice low and somber:
"Sister, why do I need a shot?"
"This is a body-strengthening drug. It can enhance physical strength for a certain period of time without much side effect."
Gently embracing the back of his head, Chu Liyue spoke softly, not hiding anything from him.

However, this medicine is not without side effects; it is somewhat addictive, takes about half a day to take effect, and lasts for about three or four days.
Once the effect wears off, it will accelerate the loss of physical strength, causing a period of drowsiness lasting one to two days.
He gave a soft "hmm" and buried his head in her arms again, a hint of weariness creeping into his brows.
Chu Liyue gently stroked his cheek and spoke softly.
"Go to sleep if you're sleepy, baby. The incubation period of the medicine will make you feel sleepy."
"I'll hold you, go to sleep."
"Once you wake up, we'll head to Laoheishan."
