Before she could speak, Xie Zhiyan had already unscrewed the cap of the ointment, taken out a cotton swab from the drawer, and scooped out some ointment. He originally wanted to apply the medicine to Shu Ying, but worried that he might hurt her by being too rough, so he could only put the cotton swab back into Shu Ying's hand.
"This medicine is quite effective for abrasions. It feels cool and refreshing when you apply it. The wound may itch a bit while it's healing, and this medicine contains some anti-itch ingredients."
Shu Ying gently blew on it, and Xie Zhiyan handed her the trash can. He then took out the first-aid kit from the cabinet and cut a piece of gauze that was neither too short nor too long.
"It's hot now, so I'm wearing short sleeves. I'll wrap the wound a little to avoid accidentally touching it."
He was very thoughtful. Although he had little experience in taking care of people, he instinctively found out what Shuying needed.
Shu Ying looked at the man she had chosen with satisfaction, increasingly admiring her own judgment.
Xie Zhiyan held the gauze in his hand and touched her wrist with his fingers. The gentle warmth of his body made Shu Ying's arm feel as if it were on fire.
The phrase "skin-to-skin contact" inexplicably came to her mind here.
Thinking of their wedding night, she blushed so much she wanted to disappear into the ground. Xie Zhiyan liked seeing her shy expression, so he didn't deliberately expose her.
Wherever his fingers lightly brushed, Shu Ying would involuntarily tremble. She kept trying to pull her hand back, but Xie Zhiyan only needed to exert a little force to hold her wrist completely in his hand.
He deliberately lowered his body, and you could see his bronze skin through his collar.
Shu Ying glanced away somewhat awkwardly, unable to help but let his mind wander. He felt as if this person was doing it on purpose.
"Don't get the wound wet for the next few days. I'll change the dressing for you every day. It's best not to use this hand for physical exertion."
Xie Zhiyan spoke in a low voice, even deeper than usual, sounding magnetic. Shu Ying's ears tickled, and she blushed even more.
She quickly moved further away, creating distance between them, and stared at him with a serious expression.
"When we were in the yard just now, didn't you say you had something else to say? What did you want to tell me?"
When the topic turned to business, Xie Zhiyan's expression changed. He looked at the first button on his collar on his phone and sat up straighter.
"This is the first time I've met Sister Song today, and I feel a sense of familiarity. I don't know how to describe this feeling to you. It's like seeing... a relative."
Actually, this sounded a bit abrupt, but Song Zhaodi was a woman, and he didn't want Shu Ying to misunderstand.
Shu Ying was completely confused, but she had a bold guess in her mind and vaguely understood what Xie Zhiyan was going to say.
