Shang Yanxing and Jiang Susu took a car, preparing to return to Shuixie Villa.
Inside the car.
Jiang Susu asked with some concern, "Thank you so much just now. But are you really alright?"
She could tell from Shang Yanxing's expression that he didn't seem to be in a good mood either.
Looking at the petite woman before him, Shang Yanxing said, "Protecting Madam's safety is what I should do. Why are you being so polite with me, Madam?"
He was overjoyed to be able to protect the girl who was in charge.
Shang Yanxing touched his shoulder, his expression somewhat ferocious, "Hiss—"
Jiang Susu immediately asked with concern, "What's wrong? Does it hurt a lot?"
Shang Yanxing shook his head. "I'm fine, Madam, you don't need to worry about me."
Jiang Susu's eyes reddened slightly, and she said anxiously, "Even at a time like this, you're still being stubborn. If you keep doing this, I'm not going to talk to you anymore."
In the crucial moment, he protected her, but now, this man is trying to be strong against her.
Shang Yanxing reached out his right hand and cupped Jiang Susu's face, saying, "I was just afraid that Madam would worry. Please don't be angry, Madam. I won't do it again."
In the end, Jiang Susu didn't hold a grudge against him. "When we get back to Shuixie Villa, I'll apply some medicine for you."
Otherwise, she would still be worried.
Shang Yanxing nodded. "Yes, I'll do whatever you say, Madam." His girl was showing him concern now, which warmed his heart.
Throughout the journey, Jiang Susu looked very worried, and Shang Yanxing noticed it all.
He also comforted her, saying, "Madam, don't worry so much. Just apply some medicine when we get back. I'm really fine."
Jiang Susu was a little annoyed. She felt that Shang Yanxing was just trying to comfort her, so she didn't believe him.
"Don't talk anymore, or I'll get angry if you say it's nothing." She was still in pain just now, and now she's telling her it's nothing.
Shang Yanxing had no choice but to shut his mouth. "Alright, I won't say anything. I hope you won't be angry, Madam." The little girl was quite cute when she saw him being so serious.
This was something he had never seen before.
So Shang Yanxing didn't dare to speak any more along the way and just sat there obediently.
Half an hour later, they returned to the Waterside Villa.
Jiang Susu asked Xu Ze to bring out the first-aid kit.
Jiang Susu looked at Shang Yanxing and said, "You... take off your clothes, I'll apply the medicine for you." Although it was a little inconvenient, she wouldn't feel at ease if she didn't apply the medicine.
Shang Yanxing hesitated for a moment, looking at Jiang Susu's flushed face, and said, "Madam, perhaps I should do it myself. I'm afraid you..."
Before Shang Yanxing could finish speaking, Jiang Susu interrupted him, "Stop talking, hurry up."
It's nothing shameful, just applying medicine. Besides, this is because of her, so she wouldn't feel at ease applying the medicine herself.
Left with no other choice, Shang Yanxing had no choice but to obey.
He took off his coat, and then he was wearing a shirt.
"Hiss—" It seems that the movement was a bit too big and it aggravated the injured area.
"Don't move, let me do it."
Jiang Susu sat down in front of Shang Yanxing and helped him unbutton his shirt.
She untied them one by one, and perhaps because she was shy, she felt her hands were trembling a little.
After all, this was the first time she had ever taken off a man's clothes like this.
Once the buttons were undone, his muscular chest was instantly revealed.
Jiang Susu was stunned for a moment. The chest was firm and full, and the contrast between the pale skin and the firm pectoral muscles was striking.
She swallowed unconsciously.
Seeing Jiang Susu's stunned expression, Shang Yanxing smiled and said, "Why are you standing there, Madam? Weren't you going to apply the medicine for me?"
Upon hearing Shang Yanxing's voice, Jiang Susu finally reacted and said somewhat flusteredly, "Oh, okay...okay."
What was she spacing out about just now?
I was almost bewitched by Shang Yanxing's good looks, and almost ruined something important.
When did she become obsessed with men's bodies? She remembered she wasn't like this before.
Since leaving Shen Shiyan, she felt that she had changed a lot.
She used to follow Shen Shiyan around every day, and she almost never looked at other men.
But now, she seems a little different.
Even so, she could not be seduced by Shang Yanxing's good looks.
Jiang Susu is not that kind of person. How could she possibly be seduced by a man's good looks?
Jiang Susu tore open Shang Yanxing's clothes and saw the injury on his shoulder.
It was red all over, and even had some bluish-purple spots. It looked very painful, and this man had lied to her that it didn't hurt.
Jiang Susu looked at the injured area, her eyes instantly reddened, and her nose felt sore.
She picked up the ointment and applied it to Shang Yanxing.
While applying the medicine, she complained, "How could you be so stupid? You could have dodged it, why did you protect me?" At that time, if Shang Yanxing hadn't been protecting her, he definitely wouldn't have been injured.
Shang Yanxing smiled and said, "I was afraid that you would get hurt, so I instinctively protected you. I'm relieved that you weren't hurt. I'm fine and will be alright in a few days, so you don't need to worry."
Does the fact that his girl cares about him so much mean that Jiang Susu still has feelings for him?
Her eyes were red as she looked at the man in front of her, unsure of what to say, yet unable to bring herself to blame him.
"We're just in a business marriage. You don't need to protect me so well." He's being so good to her now, and she's afraid that she might become unable to live without Shang Yanxing in the future.
Shang Yanxing's smile froze slightly. Hearing Jiang Susu say these words, he still felt a little uncomfortable. "These are all things I should do. Otherwise, in the eyes of outsiders, we don't seem like a married couple. So, Madam, please don't say such things anymore."
Every time she heard Jiang Susu say such things, she felt very sad.
Jiang Susu nodded and agreed to Shang Yanxing's request, "Okay, then I'll do as you say."
She just felt that this man seemed a little foolish. Actually, he really didn't have to be so good to her.
But Shang Yanxing's reasons left her with no way to refuse.
Maybe he was just putting on an act for others? But she always felt that Shang Yanxing seemed to be genuinely good to her.
Could it be her imagination?
Is she too narcissistic?
Seeing Jiang Susu staring blankly with a worried look on her face, Shang Yanxing couldn't help but say, "Madam, please don't worry about me. I'm really fine. It's just that I'll need to trouble you to apply the medicine for me these next few days."
Actually, he wouldn't have bothered with this injury in the past. But the girl was worried about him, so he cooperated and applied the medicine.
"Alright, leave the applying of medicine to me. It's what I should be doing anyway." After all, Shang Yanxing was injured because of her, so it was only right that she apply medicine for him.
