He didn't get up, but looked up at her, his eyes sparkling with light, and even his eyebrows seemed to soften in the warm sunlight.
She sniffed: "It hurts a lot when it's being pressed down."
As Xiao Jinhan listened, his lips moved slightly, his Adam's apple bobbed, and he stood up, sat down beside her, and placed both of her small hands in his palms, giving her silent comfort.
She didn't know why, but suddenly she became delicate, murmuring, "It still hurts now."
It really hurt; she had no strength left in her body. The strong painkillers she had just taken seemed to have no effect. She was also scared, so she could only grip his hand tightly and look at him sideways: "Even I, the one being protected, am in so much pain. Ye Junlin, he must be in a lot of pain."
Is it painful?
Xiao Jinhan wasn't very clear on the details, only remembering that when Ye Junlin was given anesthesia, he frowned as if he were experiencing the pain of having his bone removed.
If it weren't for him, Sixteen would be gone...
This favor cannot be repaid by simply donating blood to him.
His breathing suddenly became heavy, as if he were saying to her, or perhaps to himself, "He will be alright."
Tang Yaoyao nodded gently, taking it to heart: "Mm."
At this moment, Su Mei came over with a first-aid kit: "I'll use iodine to disinfect Yao Ge to prevent inflammation."
Xiao Jinhan took the first-aid kit and said in a deep voice, "I'll do it."
Su Mei knew he was also very weak, but seeing the worry in his eyes, she ultimately entrusted the matter to him.
He knelt down again to apply the medicine to her, his sharp eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he was very careful with every movement, afraid of hurting her.
He remembered that the little fairy was very afraid of pain.
Then, he took her hand, looked down, and saw some deep and shallow scars on it. His eyes flickered slightly, but he didn't say anything. He then bandaged her hand again and again.
After doing all this, he felt a wave of nausea and dizziness. He squatted on the ground for several seconds to forcefully suppress the dizziness. After a while, he got up and sat down next to her again to wait with her.
Tang Yaoyao was very weak. Every time she moved, it would aggravate her nerves, causing her to wince in pain.
Another half hour passed, and finally, the operating room door opened.
She instinctively wanted to get up and go ask, but he was faster than her. He picked her up in a princess carry and ran towards Gu Mobei.
Gu Mobei wasn't surprised to see him holding Tang Yaoyao. He took off his mask and said, "The surgery was successful. The intracranial hemorrhage has been removed, and she's out of danger. She's now being transferred to a regular ward for another week of observation."
He was silent for a few seconds, glanced down at her, and seeing that her tense expression had relaxed a little, he slowly said, "I understand."
Gu Mobei looked at her blood-red toes and said, "Your toes are fractured. Even if they heal properly, if you don't rest properly, you might suffer long-term consequences and become a cripple, harming yourself and others."
Tang Yaoyao was stunned for several seconds before asking, "A cripple?"
"Let's go back to the ward. Ye Junlin is fine now." Gu Mobei put his mask back on, said this, and went into the ward.
Looking at his back, Su Mei couldn't help but sigh. This man was not only sharp-tongued but also cold-hearted, and didn't seem like a doctor who was supposed to save lives at all. However, he and Fourth Master seemed to have a very good relationship.
Xiao Jinhan carried her back to the ward.
She lay half-reclined on the bed, looking at her foot. As a doctor herself, she knew that if a fracture didn't heal properly, it could indeed have long-term consequences, such as becoming a cripple...
She glanced at Xiao Jinhan almost inadvertently: "I..."
"Don't overthink things, you need to rest." Xiao Jinhan covered her with the blanket.
Ye Junlin was out of danger, which was a relief. The extreme tension gradually eased. Looking at his face, I noticed: "Fourth brother, you don't look well."
I didn't sleep well last night.
She tilted her head to look at him, thinking about everything that had just happened, narrowed her eyes, and asked him, "How about we sleep together tonight?"
She thought he would refuse because of his abstinence and cold demeanor, but to her surprise, he nodded and said, "Okay."
She took off her coat, her well-defined fingers unbuttoned her shirt, stood up, walked to the sofa, picked up the white shirt Jiang Ci had given her, and in front of her, took off the shirt and put it back on.
The whole movement was fluid and graceful, but it made her inexplicably feel thirsty.
She swallowed hard. It wasn't spring, so why was she feeling this way?
The moment he turned around, she blinked her foxy eyes and looked at his stunningly beautiful face. His clean white shirt made him look like a noble, aloof, and ascetic young master. Her breath caught in her throat, and she swallowed hard.
Her cheeks flushed slightly, but the strange feeling in her heart did not dissipate. Gradually, she realized a problem.
Has she started to develop feelings for her fourth brother?
It wasn't the affection between siblings that stirred, but rather the kind of love between a man and a woman.
Xiao Jinhan was completely unaware of the deeper emotions hidden in her charming fox-like eyes. After lifting the covers, he got up and slept with her fully clothed.
Because she had many wounds, he simply lay on his side, keeping her within his sight, without reaching out to touch her: "Go to sleep."
Tang Yaoyao turned her head to look at him, as if trying to confirm something. She remained motionless as her gaze met his, without blinking, as if she could see her heart through his dark chestnut pupils.
"Fourth brother."
His thin lips moved slightly: "Hmm?"
She asked him earnestly, "Have you ever liked someone before?"
Xiao Jinhan thought she was still worried about Ye Junlin. He raised his long eyebrows slightly, seemingly not expecting her to ask such a question, and said softly, "No."
After a two-second silence, he asked, "And you?"
"Yes, that was a long time ago."
She thought of the fox prince she loved when she was still a fox, and how she ended up heartbroken and never dared to touch him again. Because of this, she had almost forgotten what love was and what it felt like to like someone.
However, she has remained a pure fox for over a thousand years.
Every spring, fearing she might lose control and force herself on a respectable male fox, she would store plenty of food in her burrow during the winter to barely survive the spring.
Spring meant constraint and a lack of freedom to her, so she hated the season.
The reason I restrict myself like this is because I'm afraid of encountering a scumbag and getting hurt.
Fortunately, she later became a spirit, and even went through tribulations to become an immortal. She was blessed by the heavens and gained a pair of big eyes to recognize scumbags.
Xiao Jinhan covered her with the blanket again.
The fact that she can say it so easily means she must have forgotten about it.
Tang Yaoyao looked at him seriously again and said, "Xiao Jinhan."
She suddenly called his name. He frowned slightly, his breath still cool, but his expression was full of concern: "Does it hurt again?"
He made a move to get up, but she pressed his shoulder down, licked her lips, and looked very obedient: "Can you kiss me?"
