Upon entering the master bedroom, Ji Fuling looked around and found that everything in sight was either black or white. The overall decorating style of the room was particularly cold and hard, which was quite consistent with the impression Ye Nanqing gave off.
She helped Ye Nanqing to the bedside and laid him down. "Alright, you get some rest. I'll sleep on the sofa downstairs. Just call me if you need anything."
Ye Nanqing didn't reply, but simply tilted his chin in a certain direction, as if gesturing for something.
Ji Fuling followed his gaze and found that it led to a bathroom.
She looked puzzled. "What's wrong? Do you need to use the restroom?"
Ye Nanqing leaned against the headboard, his dark eyes glancing at her. "We just had a fight, and I'm a little sweaty. It's not comfortable to sleep feeling sticky."
Ji Fuling then understood what he meant, and pursed her lips, saying, "But you can't take a bath now..."
"I know, so you have to help me."
Ye Nanqing interrupted her, his gaze on her face carrying a meaningful meaning.
Ji Fuling froze, her eyes widening in astonishment as she stared at him. "I...I...help you???"
"That's right."
Ye Nanqing pointed to the white gauze around his waist and said seriously, "My wound can't get wet. Could you wipe it with a wet towel?"
Ji Fuling: "..."
Why does she have this feeling that she's slowly falling into a trap?
This can't be her imagination, right?
"You don't seem willing, fine, I'll do it myself."
As Ye Nanqing spoke, he made a move to get out of bed, but as soon as he moved, he clutched his wound and gasped, "Hiss..."
Seeing that he seemed to have aggravated his wound and looked very uncomfortable, Ji Fuling suddenly couldn't bring herself to refuse.
Regardless of the circumstances, Ye Nanqing was injured because of her.
"Alright, alright, stop moving around. I'll help you, okay?"
After saying that, Ji Fuling turned and went to the bathroom, where she brought a wet towel to wipe Ye Nanqing's body.
Then, Ji Fuling discovered that Ye Nanqing, though seemingly cold, was actually burning hot like a furnace.
Even through the towel, she could feel his body temperature.
The warmth made her cheeks start to feel slightly hot as well.
Ye Nanqing's deep black eyes stared at her intently, watching as her fair face gradually flushed red, and a slight smile curved his thin lips.
He discovered that this woman seemed particularly prone to shyness.
Moreover, she blushes easily when she's shy, which is completely different from her cool and collected demeanor when she's fighting, creating a strong sense of endearing contrast.
Afraid of touching the wound, Ji Fuling moved very gently and carefully throughout the process.
After finally finishing wiping, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but when she raised her head to get up, she saw Ye Nanqing's gaze glancing down at his crotch.
Ji Fuling's face instantly turned bright red, and she jumped up on the spot, shouting, "No, not there!!!"
Ye Nanqing knew she had misunderstood when he saw her reaction.
He didn't explain immediately, but instead looked at the woman's flushed face with a leisurely air, "Where is it not right?"
"You, you're asking a question you already know the answer to!"
Ji Fuling stammered, glaring at Ye Nanqing with a mixture of embarrassment and annoyance, "Anyway, it's not okay there, you can wipe it yourself..."
I can accept having her wipe my upper body, but I also want her to wipe my lower body?
That's impossible!!
Ye Nanqing chuckled softly and said slowly, "What are you thinking? I just feel uncomfortable sleeping in dress pants and wanted you to get me my pajamas."
Ji Fuling froze completely: "..."
So, she misunderstood?
That's so embarrassing!!
Ugh, she just wants to crawl into a hole and disappear!
"The pajamas are in the dressing room next door, you can just grab any set..."
Before Ye Nanqing could finish speaking, Ji Fuling had already run towards the dressing room as if fleeing, as if she wanted to shake off the embarrassment from just now.
Ten minutes later.
Ye Nanqing changed into his pajamas and lay back down on the bed.
Ji Fuling had her back to him and was texting Aunt Ding on her phone, telling her that she had something to do tonight and couldn't go back, and asked Aunt Ding to take good care of the three children.
After sending the message, she put away her phone, turned around and looked at the languid yet sophisticated man on the bed, "Okay, go to sleep, call me if you need anything."
"etc."
Ye Nanqing called out to her.
Ji Fuling was completely bewildered. "What is it now??"
"To avoid any emergencies, you'll need to stay close by, so you can't leave this room. Choose between the bed and the sofa."
Ye Nanqing pointed to the seat next to him and the leather sofa next to him.
Ji Fuling: "..."
He was injured.
He is a patient.
He will die if his wound gets infected.
After repeating these three sentences in her mind several times, Ji Fuling silently walked towards the sofa.
After all that fuss, she was really exhausted. She lay down on the sofa, closed her eyes, and quickly fell asleep.
However, the man lying on the bed didn't even close his eyes, staring intently at Ji Fuling's curled-up figure.
Feeling that she must have fallen asleep, Ye Nanqing got up from the bed, walked over, picked her up horizontally, carried her directly to the bed, and then pulled her into his arms.
The faint fragrance emanating from her seemed to have a calming effect, making him unconsciously captivated...
at the same time.
In a ward of a private hospital.
Xia Yan lay on the hospital bed with tears streaming down her face, her eyes swollen from crying.
"Why is this happening? Ji Fuling should be the one being abused, why am I the one being abused? Waaaaah..."
According to the plan, Ji Fuling was supposed to drink the drugged cocktail, be taken to the bar's restroom, and then be brutally abused by that lecherous old man.
After it was all over, she took pictures of Ji Fuling's miserable state and sent them to major media outlets, completely ruining Ji Fuling's reputation.
However, it was she who fainted in the end, and it was also she who was brutally abused by the old lecher.
She's covered in so much flesh now.
She trembles whenever she thinks about the scene.
Ji Xinqi stood by the bed, looking at Xia Yan who was crying bitterly, and cursed her as an idiot in her heart.
You're such a useless piece of trash who can't even do the simplest thing right, and you still have the nerve to cry!
Annoyance flashed in her eyes, but she didn't show it on her face. Instead, she took a check out of her bag and handed it over.
"Here's two million. Take it and focus on getting better first. We'll talk about that later."
Xia Yan held the check, tears still streaming down her face. "Xinqi, this must be Ji Fuling's doing! She's the one who ruined me! I want revenge! You have to help me!"
Ji Xinqi sat down on the edge of the bed and patted Xia Yan's shoulder. "Don't worry, I will definitely help you. Once you've recovered, we'll make a proper plan and make Ji Fuling pay a heavy price."
Although Xia Yan is indeed a fool, she should make good use of this pawn as long as it can deal with Ji Fuling!
