Chapter 64 So... Last night, she... threw herself into his arms
The two did not stay in the old house for long.
Mrs. Shen originally thought that they would stay at the old house tonight.
Unexpectedly, Shen Xichuan refused directly.
"It's so late, why don't you stay?" Mrs. Shen said.
“It’s inconvenient.” Shen Xichuan replied indifferently with three words.
Mrs. Shen didn't react for a moment, "What's inconvenient about this? We're all at home."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Yankai went downstairs to pour water. He happened to hear this and couldn’t help coughing, and choked directly.
Mrs. Shen came back to her senses.
She looked at Shen Xichuan silently, the corners of her mouth twitching slightly, “Xiaochuan, Lanlan is a wounded soldier, isn’t it… inconvenient…”
Xu Jialan's cheeks turned visibly red.
She opened her mouth, not knowing how to explain.
Shen Xichuan simply pulled her into his arms to prevent others from seeing her.
"Mom, what are you thinking? Am I such a beast?"
Mrs. Shen didn't say anything, her face full of what she thought.
Shen Yankai also turned around silently and went upstairs.
He knows nothing.
Shen Xichuan: “…”
He looked at the head of the Shen family speechlessly, "Dad, take care of your wife."
Patriarch Shen flipped a page of the newspaper, looked up, and exclaimed, "My wife is doing fine like this."
Shen Xichuan: “…”
He had a headache and was too lazy to talk.
"Okay, let's go first."
After saying that, he put his arm around Xu Jialan's waist and walked outside.
He opened the passenger door and let Xu Jialan get in first.
Then he walked around to the driver's side.
It was not until the car drove away from the old house that the blush on Xu Jialan's cheeks faded slightly.
Shen Xichuan didn’t open the window this time, and his hands were lazily placed on the steering wheel.
He quickly turned his head to look at her, and the corners of his mouth curled up, "What are you afraid of?"
Xu Jialan froze while fanning his face, and exclaimed, "What?"
She pretended not to understand.
Shen Xichuan smiled, “Don’t worry, I haven’t caught up with anyone yet, I won’t really be such a beast.”
“Ahem—”
Xu Jialan choked on his own saliva.
Does he want to listen to what he is saying?
Shen Xichuan took out a tissue and handed it over, “So excited? Are you looking forward to it?”
The tone was a little lazy, with a slight upward tone.
Xu Jialan: "..."
She looked at him angrily, "Shen Xichuan."
"Yes, I'm here." The man replied with a curled lip.
"When did I expect that?"
"Huh? Aren't you looking forward to it?" Shen Xichuan raised his eyebrows and looked at her.
Xu Jialan: "..."
She chose to keep her mouth shut.
After a while, Shen Xichuan spoke slowly and uttered an ah, “Actually, I’m… quite looking forward to it.”
Xu Jialan blushed immediately, “Shen Xichuan.”
The man had a faint, rogue smile on his face. "What do you want me to do?"
"Shut up." She said coquettishly.
Shen Xichuan smiled, “As you wish, Mrs. Shen.”
…
Maybe I'm really shy.
Along the way, Xu Jialan ignored Shen Xichuan.
After returning to Xinghu Bay, she immediately went into the cloakroom, took her pajamas, and went into the bathroom to take a shower.
Shen Xichuan wanted to explain anything, but he didn't have the chance.
Half an hour later, Xu Jialan came out of the shower.
She opened the bathroom door and was startled to see someone outside.
"You...why are you here?"
"Wait for you."
Shen Xichuan stood up straight, his eyes swept over the wound on her neck, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the wound was protected by a waterproof sticker and was not stained by water.
Xu Jialan felt a little uncomfortable and didn't dare to look him in the eye.
"Waiting for me to do what?"
Shen Xichuan’s eyes fell on her face.
Maybe it was because she had just taken a shower, her overly fair face was pink and tender.
It looks like a peach, making people want to take a bite.
He paused, looked away, and coughed lightly, "I'll apply medicine to you when you come out."
Xu Jialan was stunned for a moment.
Shen Xichuan didn't look at her again, and walked towards the living room.
"Let's go, I'll give you some medicine."
Xu Jialan hurried to follow.
The experimental medicine left by An Yuening is more effective than the one prescribed in the hospital.
Shen Xichuan's brows were slightly knitted, and he relaxed after seeing the wound healing.
"Does the wound hurt today?"
Xu Jialan tilted his head slightly to make it easier for him to apply the medicine.
"It's okay, it doesn't hurt much."
Both pills and topical medications have analgesic effects.
Shen Xichuan felt a little uncomfortable when he saw a glaring scar on the delicate skin with several stitches on it.
He moved very gently, afraid of hurting her.
After applying the medicine, carefully wrap it with gauze.
"When the stitches can be removed, I'll go to the hospital with you."
Hearing this, Xu Jialan was stunned for a few seconds.
She originally didn't plan to go to the hospital.
Not to mention that she had some aversion to hospitals, and An Yuening was a very good doctor.
She originally planned to let An Yuening remove her stitches.
I just didn’t expect…
"Will you go with me? But do you have time?" she asked.
Hearing this, Shen Xichuan thought for a moment, “The stitches will be removed next Saturday?”
Xu Jialan nodded.
“Then there is.” Shen Xichuan put the ointment back in its place and wiped his hands, “I have a day off that day, so I can accompany you to the hospital.”
Xu Jialan did not refuse, nor did she say that she could let An Yuening remove her stitches.
"good."
Shen Xichuan chuckled and raised his hand to rub her head, “Be good, I’m going to take a shower.”
After saying that, he got up, got a change of pajamas and went to the bathroom.
Xu Jialan's expression froze.
The words he said on the way back couldn't help but echo in my mind.
Her face was so hot that she raised her hand to fan it.
I sat in the living room for a while and calmed down.
Xu Jialan returned to the bedroom and tried to fall asleep early.
Maybe the more you think about it, the more it goes against your will.
She didn’t fall asleep until Shen Xichuan finished taking a shower.
Xu Jialan grabbed the quilt, closed his eyes tightly, and pretended to be asleep.
She felt the quilt beside her being lifted.
Then, Shen Xichuan lay down.
Before she could react, Shen Xichuan reached out and pulled her into his arms.
Xu Jialan was caught off guard and fell into the man's arms.
She dared not move, and her breathing was choked.
Shen Xichuan felt her stiffness, rested his chin on the top of her head, and smiled softly.
"Are you so scared?"
Xu Jialan didn't say anything.
Shen Xichuan lowered his head and kissed the top of her head, “Don’t worry, I will keep my word.”
He paused, "As long as you're not prepared for a day, I won't cross the line."
After a few seconds, Xu Jialan opened his eyes.
There was only a night light left in the bedroom.
She smelled the man's scent, the familiar scent of shower gel mixed with the relaxing scent of sandalwood.
She relaxed her body, leaned gently in his arms, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
"Then I didn't allow you to hug me."
Shen Xichuan paused for a few seconds and tutted his words, with a hint of laughter in his tone.
“Mrs. Shen, have you forgotten that you seemed to have gotten into my arms without my permission last night and occupied my pillow.”
Xu Jialan: “…?”
She suddenly remembered that when she woke up in the morning, she was indeed sleeping in Shen Xichuan's seat.
So... last night, she... threw herself into my arms?
