When Lu Jingheng heard her pricking her thigh, his brows furrowed even deeper. "Fine, I'll take you back."
He fastened her seatbelt before starting the car.
Xu Rubao breathed a sigh of relief; she really didn't want to come to this place again.
"Mr. Lu, Xu Ziqing is still at Night Song. Will she be alright?"
"No, Qin Zhiyao will deliver her safely to the Xu family."
He's usually a bit unreliable, changing women all the time, but he won't mess things up when he gives orders.
Back at the villa in Jinyuan, Lu Jingheng carried her out of the car.
The effects of the medicine on Xu Rubao hadn't worn off yet, and her body was limp, so she could only let Lu Jingheng hold her.
Lu Jingheng placed her on the sofa. "I'll pour you a glass of water. Drinking some water will help you recover."
"Thank you……"
Xu Rubao watched him pour water for her, and after pouring the water, he went to get medicine, busy running around.
Normally, he was treated like an old man, and she was the one who busied herself taking care of him.
Now, she lay on the sofa like an old man, as if Lu Jingheng, who used to be aloof and superior, had become a completely different person.
Xu Rubao thought he looked incredibly handsome as he walked towards her carrying his medicine box.
Lu Jingheng put down the medical kit and looked at him, who was staring blankly at him. "What are you looking at? Let me see the wound. It needs to be treated."
Xu Rubao lowered her head and looked at the location of the wound on her leg.
That spot, right next to my thigh, was a very awkward position.
She shook her head. "Mr. Lu, please... let me handle it myself. I'll manage."
After saying that, she covered her wound with her hand so he wouldn't see it.
Lu Jingheng didn't want to waste any more words with her and simply removed her hand.
Tonight, her underwear was stripped off, leaving her completely covered in a sheer white veil, creating a see-through effect.
"Should I...should I change my clothes first?"
This tattered clothing is practically useless; wearing it is like wearing nothing at all.
Lu Jingheng ignored her, thinking to himself, "There's a place on her body that I haven't touched."
He looked at the wound; thankfully, it wasn't too big.
He disinfected the area, applied a hemostatic ointment, and then put on a band-aid.
"Okay, be careful when you take a shower tonight."
Xu Rubao felt really embarrassed. "Thank you, Mr. Lu. Well... I'll go upstairs first."
I feel like I can't face him like this right now; I should at least put my clothes on.
Xu Rubao wanted to go upstairs, but as soon as she stood up, she overestimated herself. The effects of the drug hadn't worn off yet, and she suddenly went limp.
Lu Jingheng caught her, somewhat displeased, "Why are you being so stubborn?"
He originally wanted to scold her, but her soft body in his arms made him suppress his anger.
"I...I just didn't want to cause you any trouble, and besides, I...I should change my clothes since I'm dressed like this."
Xu Rubao's voice was also soft and gentle. Her face was flushed, and she didn't know if it was because of the medicine, but her eyes seemed particularly bright, as if they had been washed with water, and they looked watery.
Lu Jingheng looked at her and felt a strong urge to kiss her.
"What do you mean? It's okay for so many people to watch in Night Song, but not here?"
"No...no, that's not what I meant, no, I...I..."
Xu Rubao didn't know how to explain, so she actually said no.
She said no, could it be that she meant Lu Jingheng could watch it? That's clearly not what she meant.
For a moment, he couldn't speak fluently and stammered.
