Chapter 818: Each with His Own Schemes
Su Xiao shuddered immediately, but quickly calmed down. She ran over to support him and shouted, "Ah, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. How are you? It hurts, right? I'll get you the medicine box. No, I'll stop the bleeding first."
As he said this, he picked up a piece of gauze and pressed it tightly on Situ Jin's wound.
Because she deliberately used force, the wound continued to bleed naturally, and soon the gauze was stained red. Seeing this, Su Xiao immediately showed an even more panicked look, "Why can't I stop it? What should I do? Oh my God!"
"It's okay, don't panic, go get the medicine box." Situ Jin said calmly.
Su Xiao said "oh" and ran to get the medicine box.
The medicine box was placed in a small cabinet. Su Xiao pondered for a moment, resolutely hid the gauze in a small ceramic basin, then picked up the medicine box and returned to Situ Jin.
Situ Jin first stopped the bleeding, then disinfected and bandaged the wound. His overall movements were quick and skillful, and it was obvious that he had done this countless times.
Su Xiao watched silently, her mood still confused, thinking about the blood-stained gauze, but she couldn't leave.
After Situ Jin was completely done, he looked up at Su Xiao's pale face and forced a smile, "It's okay, don't be afraid."
His voice was low and gentle, which was rare to him. He was not like this before, but these days he was no longer indifferent or unfeeling to her.
If it were in the past, Su Xiao would definitely be relieved, but now that she knew he was not Yun Che at all, she only felt hatred and fear.
Her brother repeatedly told her not to let Situ Jin notice that something was wrong with her, and not to let Situ Jin see that she already knew Situ Jin's identity. So, the only way was to reduce contact so that it would not be easy to discover.
Thinking of this, Su Xiao picked up the medicine box and said, "I'll go put the medicine box away first."
She didn't know that Situ Jin had been looking at her back for a long time, his eyes flickering with a complicated look.
Su Xiao put away the medicine box and walked into the bathroom with gauze.
She emptied a small bottle, washed it, and squeezed the blood on the gauze into the bottle. It turned out to be as deep as half a finger, which seemed to be enough for testing.
Su Xiao closed the bottle cap tightly and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Knock knock..." There was a knock on the door outside.
It was Situ Jin, whose deep voice came slowly, "Are you not well yet?"
Su Xiao was determined and responded, "It will be soon."
Five minutes later, Su Xiao opened the bathroom door and met Situ Jin's slightly puzzled yet concerned look. "Are you okay?"
"Oh, no. Your hands can't get wet. Do you want to take a shower? Do you need my help?" Su Xiao said the last sentence with great effort.
When she found out that he was Situ Jin, she certainly didn't want to see his body, but she had to pretend like this so that he would think that she was no different from usual.
Fortunately, Situ Jin himself did not want her to see his body, so he declined, "It's okay, I can do it myself. If you are tired, go lie down for a while."
Su Xiao looked at him thoughtfully, then nodded obediently.
Situ Jin walked into the bathroom, and Su Xiao took out the small bottle from her pocket. She thought about where to hide it, and finally, she stuffed it among a pile of skin care products in her drawer, making sure he wouldn't notice.
She returned to the bed, staring at a certain place, her mind racing, thinking about all kinds of things, until Situ Jin came out.
His hair was not dry yet, so Su Xiao helped him blow dry his hair as usual.
She remembered wondering why his white hair disappeared last time, and now everything became clear.
Yes, he is not Yun Che at all, he is not at all!
"By the way, can I take a day off the day after tomorrow and take you and the kids out for an outing?" Situ Jin suddenly said.
Su Xiao froze.
In the past, she would have been very happy, but now...
"What's wrong? Did you have something to do that day?" Situ Jin asked in confusion.
"Oh, it's not very important. I just made an appointment with Wu Junhao to go back to Junnanfang to discuss a project." Su Xiao also made an excuse.
"What time do you meet?"
"10 o'clock in the morning." Because she didn't want to go out with him, Su Xiao simply set the time at this point.
Sure enough, Situ Jin looked disappointed. Su Xiao quickly asked, "What about the day after tomorrow? Do you want to move your vacation to the day after tomorrow? You can go out then."
Situ Jin thought for a moment and shook his head, "I have a meeting the day after tomorrow that will last for three hours. I probably won't be able to leave."
"Is that so? Forget it then. Work is more important. Let's see." Su Xiao put on a look of regret and consideration, trying her best not to let him notice her abnormality.
Situ Jin thought about it and nodded, "Okay, I'll make some arrangements."
After that, everyone stopped talking, had their hair blown dry, and went to bed together.
Su Xiao remembered that in the past, she would look forward to Yun Che's close contact. Now that she knew that the man next to her was no longer Yun Che, she was scared and panicked, and her heart was beating like a drum.
And at this moment, Situ Jin suddenly reached out and hugged her.
"What are you doing!" Su Xiao shouted immediately, and subconsciously struggled with her whole body on guard.
A hint of confusion flashed in Situ Jin's eyes. He remembered that she really wanted to be intimate with him before, and sometimes she was even very proactive, but he avoided her every time. Now, it was only because he listened to Mingli's advice and he didn't want to arouse her suspicion that he made this attempt with great effort.
Now it's her turn to resist?
What's going on?
Is it because she was heartbroken several times before and doesn't want to be intimate with him anymore, or is there some other reason?
Facing Situ Jin's sharp and shrewd eyes, Su Xiao had calmed down from her original conditioned reflex, and her heart couldn't help but become even more flustered and conflicted.
She knew that what she had to do now was to throw herself back into his arms and accept his intimate behavior, but she simply couldn't do it. She didn't want even an inch of her skin to be touched by this devil!
In addition, Su Xiao suddenly thought, why did he do this tonight? Wasn't he the most resistant to her contact? Before, she took the initiative to flirt with him, but he was unmoved, as if she was a virus, and he wanted to stay away from her. But tonight, he took the initiative to be intimate with her.
What the hell is he up to?
Su Xiao knew that she should go along with him and see what he wanted to do, but she just couldn't get over it, even though she and he had done that horrific thing twice before.
But now, she really couldn't stand it.
Su Xiao's mind became increasingly confused, and her thoughts became impulsive again. She ignored everything else and quickly sat up, saying, "I'm going to the bathroom."
Without waiting for Situ Jin to react, she immediately jumped out of bed and rushed into the bathroom.
Situ Jin stared at the door, always feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure it out, and gradually he started to have a headache again.
In the past two days, he found that his headaches were becoming more frequent and more severe. It seemed as if something was installed in his brain, which would start up at a certain time and bring him painful vibrations.
Is this the aftereffect of falling into the valley?
It seemed he needed to take some time to get checked out, as these symptoms, which always appeared suddenly, were out of his control and made him feel very uneasy.
Not wanting Su Xiao to discover his strange behavior, Situ Jin stood up and walked out of the bedroom.
After a while, Su Xiao came out and found that the bed was empty and Situ Jin was nowhere to be seen.
What about others?
