Because when wearing a skirt, the arms are inevitably exposed, and it is difficult to avoid being seen by others. With this scar, she must be very uncomfortable.

Zhao Beichen patted her hand gently and said softly, "Ms. Ruyu, I know your concerns. You are afraid that what I am saying now is just to comfort you, but in fact, this ointment will not have any effect at all, right?"

"......." Although Yan Ruyu didn't want to admit it, it was the truth. Moreover, now that Professor Zhao had seen it, there was no need to hide it. She had no choice but to nod, "Yes, yes."

After hearing this, Zhao Beichen encouraged her to believe it without hesitation.

"Ms. Ruyu, we can't give up the hope just because this scar is difficult to remove."

"Even though the scar is darker and more obvious, it doesn't mean we can't give it a try. What if the effect is good? If you don't believe it now, you may regret it in the future."

In order to make her willing to try and give her hope, he added, "Besides, didn't I promise Miss Ruyu when we were in the hospital that if the wound really left a scar, I would definitely find a way to help Miss fade it."

"If this ointment doesn't work, then I'll think of other ways. I'm so smart, do I have to worry about not being able to think of other ways? I just don't know if Miss Ruyu will believe me."

Yan Ruyu felt a familiar warm feeling in her heart as she listened to what Zhao Beichen said.

She has always known that Professor Zhao always seemed to be genuinely thinking about her, no matter what happened, and everything he did was more than just simple comfort.

Yan Ruyu took a deep breath and decided to trust the ointment.

"Well, since Professor Zhao has said so, if I don't give it a try, wouldn't that be disrespecting Professor Zhao?"

"As for whether the ointment is effective, I'll give Professor Zhao some face and just believe it for now."

Zhao Beichen smiled slightly.

Fortunately, she was willing to believe him.

"It's my honor that Miss Ruyu can give me a face."

"Ms. Ruyu's wound has healed well recently. Before she was discharged from the hospital, I asked the doctor when she could start applying the scar-lightening ointment. The doctor told me that she could start today."

"So, I want to ask, Miss Ruyu, do you want to start using it today?" As he said that, Zhao Beichen took out the ointment from his pocket and shook it in front of her, as if tempting her to try it.

Yan Ruyu also nodded successfully, "Okay."

Zhao Beichen opened the ointment, dipped some from it with his index finger, held Yan Ruyu's wrist, and gently applied the ointment.

He also said, "I still believe what the doctor said, so I also believe that this ointment will definitely be useful."

When the ointment touched her skin, Yan Ruyu felt a cool sensation, and a coolness penetrated into her wound.

The coolness did not make her feel uncomfortable. On the contrary, the cool ointment made her feel soothed and relaxed.

Zhao Beichen applied the ointment with great concentration, his fingers sliding gently across her skin. The warmth of his fingers mixed with the coolness of the ointment was particularly felt on Yan Ruyu's skin.

Yan Ruyu looked at his gentle face and felt her heartbeat gradually quickening. Her cheeks seemed to be getting hot and even red.

Although Zhao Beichen applied medicine to her and changed her bandages in the hospital, she still looked at him closely.

But this time it was somewhat different. This time, there was no cotton swab as a medium for applying the medicine. Instead, it was the warmth of the fingers that came into direct contact with her skin and lasted continuously.

Being at such a close distance, Yan Ruyu felt a sense of intimacy she had never felt before, and she couldn't help but doubt... Are her feelings for Zhao Beichen really as simple as they seem on the surface?

Perhaps someone noticed her burning gaze, but Zhao Beichen's fingers paused on Yan Ruyu's arm.

He raised his head and looked at Yan Ruyu's slightly flushed cheeks and evasive eyes, and his heart stopped for a moment.

Yan Ruyu was afraid that he would see through her, so she quickly avoided his gaze and pulled back her hand, "Professor Zhao, Ying, the medicine should have been applied by now."

Zhao Beichen stared at her for a moment before answering, "Yes, the medicine has been applied."

Zhao Beichen put the ointment away as if nothing had happened, picked up the tissue on the table and wiped his hands.

His slow movements were actually because he was recalling the scene he had just seen in his mind.

Did she blush just now? She blushed...

Why was she blushing? Was it because I was applying the ointment to her?

I just applied some ointment, why do I blush?

Zhao Beichen lowered his eyes and stared at his hands, still unable to figure out why.

Yan Ruyu secretly watched his actions from the side. Seeing him rubbing the ointment on his fingers, she suddenly felt a wonderful mixture of warmth and coolness on her arms, which made her heart beat faster.

Zhao Beichen put his finger to his nose and smelled it. There was still the smell of ointment on it, which was not very pleasant.

When he turned around and was about to speak, he found Yan Ruyu staring at the wound on her arm, pursing her lips, with a very strange look on her face.

"Ms. Ruyu? What's wrong with you? Did I accidentally hurt your wound when I was applying the ointment just now? That shouldn't be the case. Isn't the wound healed now?"

Yan Ruyu heard the voice and looked up quickly.

The two looked at each other, and Yan Ruyu felt her heart beating so fast that it seemed like it was about to jump out.

She bit her lip gently, trying to calm her heartbeat.

"It's okay. I just felt the ointment was cool and comfortable, so I couldn't help but stare at it for a while." Yan Ruyu answered softly, trying to suppress her accelerated heartbeat.

After hearing what she said, Zhao Beichen's slightly frowned brows finally relaxed.

"Indeed, my fingers also felt it when I was applying the medicine to Miss Ruyu. However, this kind of medicine should feel more comfortable, much better than those that get hot after being applied."

Yan Ruyu's eyes flickered.

She thought, could she say that there was actually a slight warm feeling, but it was not the ointment, but the temperature of the fingertips through the ointment?

I hesitated for a moment and chose not to say anything.

Because she also knew that if she said it, she would inadvertently reveal her accelerated heartbeat and blushing...which would easily lead to Zhao Beichen misunderstanding.

"Yes, yes, it is much better indeed."

"By the way, Professor Zhao, did you have something to say just now?"

She couldn't continue talking about this topic anymore and had to think of a new one.
