But now he's doing something he used to disdain, all to avenge her. Mo Jing's eyes flickered, making it hard to see clearly.
The night was as dark as ink, and the moonlight was serene and gentle.
In a hospital ward in the city center, the bright room reflects a warm glow.
Mo Jing sat quietly on the hospital bed, the clear handprint on her face and the obvious bluish marks on her chin.
A nurse, her face slightly flushed, held the ointment in her hand, her eyes sparkling. Her heart pounded wildly as she approached the aloof, handsome man.
Her face grew hotter and hotter. What a handsome man! She had never seen such a handsome and aloof man before.
She shyly handed the ointment to Ling Moyuan, imagining their fingertips touching intimately after he took it, and then him politely thanking her. Just thinking about it made the nurse's heart pound even harder, and her adoring gaze became even more pronounced.
But dreams are beautiful, while reality is cruel.
The reality was that Ling Moyuan didn't even glance at the nurse. He said in a cool voice, "Put the medicine on the bed and close the door when you leave." This obvious gesture of dismissal made the nurse's hand holding the medicine stiffen for a moment.
But unwilling to leave like that, the nurse reluctantly said, "How about I help her apply the medicine? I'm more professional." Although she didn't want to help the woman apply the medicine, she endured it in order to be able to get close to this handsome man.
Ling Moyuan turned to look at the nurse, his clear eyes chillingly transparent. The nurse felt uneasy being stared at like that.
In the end, he could only leave with an embarrassed expression, not forgetting to glare fiercely at Mo Jing before leaving.
Ling Moyuan picked up the ointment from the bed, and his well-defined fingers, perfect for playing the piano, twisted the cap open, releasing a faint medicinal fragrance.
"I can do it myself." Mo Jing hurriedly stopped Ling Moyuan as he was about to apply some ointment.
Ling Moyuan glanced at her, then dabbed some ointment on his index finger and gently applied it to Mo Jing's swollen face: "You're so clumsy, do you even know how to apply medicine?"
Is she stupid?
How could she be stupid? Everyone has praised her for being smart since she was a child. She has always been a role model at school and an example for students. How could she be stupid?
Seemingly sensing Mo Jing's dissatisfaction, Ling Moyuan said calmly, "Using yourself as a bait to put yourself in danger, what is that if not stupidity?"
"Nothing ventured, nothing gained." Her clear, beautiful eyes shimmered with tears.
"It's just a small Su family business, why are you going to so much trouble?" Ling Moyuan really didn't understand why such a small company had to go through so much trouble. If she wanted him to go bankrupt, he could do it within three days. Why go to such lengths?
Despite thinking this way, Ling Moyuan also knew that Mo Jing was a person with her own principles and bottom line. Although he hadn't known her for very long, Ling Moyuan understood her well.
She disliked being a woman who relied on men, and in many ways, she was even more stubborn and strong than men. Such a woman evoked both pity and anger.
I feel sorry for her because she has such a hard life, and I'm angry that she could have a great shoulder to lean on, but she's unwilling to get close to it.
But wasn't it precisely this kind of Mo Jing that attracted him in the first place—stubborn, resilient, and strong?
