Chapter 109 It’s nice to have a wife
Fortunately, Xiao Zhiyu was staying in the intensive care unit, which was well-equipped with complete facilities, even thermoses were ready-made, which saved her a lot of trouble.
The most important thing is that this is a single room. If it were in an ordinary ward, how would it be possible to give him a bath?
It was so embarrassing with so many eyes watching me.
Thinking of this, Ruan Chuxia once again confirmed that there was no one else around to ensure that Xiao Zhiyu would not feel any discomfort or embarrassment.
Mix the hot water from the thermos with an appropriate amount of cold water until the water in the basin reaches the most suitable temperature.
Ruan Chuxia carefully soaked the towel, making sure it was not too hot or too cold so as not to cause discomfort to Xiao Zhiyu.
He slowly walked to the bedside and began to wipe the face of Xiao Zhiyu, who was lying on the bed unable to move.
She noticed that there were fine beads of sweat on his face, obviously because of the pain from the acupuncture.
"Close your eyes..."
Ruan Chuxia said softly.
Xiao Zhiyu obediently closed his eyes as Ruan Chuxia requested, which made Ruan Chuxia feel warm in her heart.
Then, she carefully cleaned Xiao Zhiyu's face, starting from the forehead, then around the eyes, on both sides of the nose, and near the mouth.
She also pays special attention to cleaning between her eyelashes and inside and outside her ears, which are easy places for dirt to hide but are easily overlooked.
Finally, Ruan Chuxia carefully lifted Xiao Zhiyu's head to make it easier to thoroughly clean the back of the neck area, ensuring that every corner was taken care of.
Xiao Zhiyu sighed comfortably, it’s so good to have a wife!
After wiping her face, Ruan Chuxia went to wash the towel and came back.
The weather was a bit cold, and she was worried that he would catch a cold, so she covered him with a blanket, then carefully avoided the wounds on his chest and abdomen and gently washed the rest of his body.
Her movements were very gentle, for fear of accidentally touching his wound and causing him pain.
By the time she finished wiping his upper body, she was already sweating profusely. She was just about to breathe a sigh of relief and was about to help him wipe his legs.
This is a time-consuming and labor-intensive task, as every inch of skin must be carefully wiped clean to prevent bacteria from growing and affecting wound healing.
Despite this, she had no complaints and only hoped that he would get better soon.
At this time, he coughed lightly, as if he had something to say.
Ruan Chuxia looked at him in confusion, with questioning eyes.
"Over there," he began.
The voice was low, but the tone was firm.
"Um?"
Ruan Chuxia responded doubtfully, but she had a vague premonition in her heart.
"Help over there too!"
He pointed to his lower body with a calm expression, as if he was talking about something very ordinary.
"This...this is a bit embarrassing, isn't it?"
Ruan Chuxia was a little embarrassed, her cheeks slightly red.
Although there were only two of them in the ward, the door was not locked. What if someone came in?
She was worried that someone would see such a private scene and would feel very uncomfortable.
"What's there to be embarrassed about?"
Xiao Zhiyu said as if it was a matter of course, "We are husband and wife."
For him, since they are already married, there is no need to hide anything or have any concerns.
The most important thing is that the sweat on the body is wet and dry, and he can't take a shower after the operation. If he just leaves that area unwiped, he always feels that his whole body is still dirty.
This feeling made him very uncomfortable.
Ruan Chuxia looked helpless. Although they had had close contact before, this was the first time they were face to face.
After all, such a scene is really too special.
Seeing that she was unwilling, Xiao Zhiyu coughed and said, "No need to stare at me, just... wipe it through the quilt."
If he hadn't been seriously injured and unable to do it himself, he would have handled it himself long ago.
Now he is completely unable to move and can only rely on her for help.
Thinking about how he was injured in order to save her, Ruan Chuxia gritted her teeth and nodded: "Okay."
She knew that this was what she should do for the health of her lover, and there was no psychological barrier that could not be overcome.
Then she thought of another question: "But you don't have any underwear, how are you going to change?"
This question suddenly made her feel embarrassed because she didn't know how to solve it.
After all, finding new clothes at this time is not an easy task.
She had been extremely busy these past two days, and since she had never taken care of a patient before, she had not prepared the necessary items or the mental preparation.
Xiao Zhiyu's face became even uglier. The uncleanness made him feel uncomfortable, and after cleaning, there was nothing clean to replace it with, which made him feel even more uncomfortable!
"How about this," Ruan Chuxia said after thinking for a moment, "I'll help you change your pants later. I'll go buy some new ones, wash them, and dry them with a hot water bottle before letting you wear them."
Fortunately, I brought enough tickets and money when I went out, otherwise it would be very difficult to buy suitable replacement clothes.
Xiao Zhiyu seemed a little hesitant. Although he and Ruan Chuxia had a deep emotional foundation, he still felt quite awkward and embarrassed to expose himself to Ruan Chuxia at such a moment.
"It's really no big deal," Ruan Chuxia continued to persuade gently, "Why don't you just put on the clean hospital pants prepared by the hospital for now? Besides, the weather is so nice, the clothes will dry faster."
Seeing that Xiao Zhiyu remained silent for a long time, Ruan Chuxia thought that he had tacitly agreed to this plan.
For Ruan Chuxia, who had never experienced such a thing, her technique was obviously a bit clumsy and her movements seemed unskilled.
Seeing Ruan Chuxia's unskilled operation, Xiao Zhiyu couldn't help but frown, with a slight discomfort written all over his face.
"Let's just forget it..."
After struggling in her heart for a while, Ruan Chuxia began to feel a little shaken.
It already feels very forced. If something goes wrong, won't it make the situation worse?
Realizing that Ruan Chuxia was about to give up, Xiao Zhiyu immediately gave her a stern look.
For him, this half-finished state is more irritating than not cleaning at all.
Couldn't he just have a good, thorough cleanse for once?
Helpless, Ruan Chuxia could only bite the bullet and continue.
As time passed, thanks to her efforts, Xiao Zhiyu, who had been lying pale and weak on the bed, seemed to have improved, and gradually regained some vitality and energy.
In order to hide his complicated emotions, he turned his face away and tried to pretend that nothing had happened.
Finally, all the steps are completed.
Ruan Chuxia, who heaved a sigh of relief, reached out and patted her hands gently. Her eyes fell on the person on the bed and she asked in confusion, "Zhiyu, what on earth is going on here..."
Faced with such a question, Xiao Zhiyu just snorted, then turned his head away and stopped looking at her.
