She had only been there a short while when someone took advantage of her, so how could Xu Zhuohua not be angry?
What angered her even more was that Cheng Muyun didn't move away at all, letting Luo Yunqiao get so close.
What are you doing?
Xu Zhuohua shouted, startling the people inside the room who turned to look at her.
She got even angrier. Miss Xu never held grudges and would settle scores on the spot.
Xu Zhuohua threw the food box on the table, strode forward, grabbed Luo Yunqiao's wrist which was on Cheng Muyun's chest, and pulled him up.
"Luo Yunqiao, what do you want to do?"
Luo Yunqiao frowned. Xu Zhuohua's grip was unusually strong; the delicate young lady had never experienced such hardship.
"Let go, my hand hurts so much."
Cheng Muyun also stood up to stop him, "Zhuohua, let go first."
Xu Zhuohua raised her hand and pushed him away, but by sheer coincidence, she pushed his shoulder, and Cheng Muyun let out a cold groan in pain.
"Luo Yunqiao, no matter how anxious you are, you don't need to be so eager to come over, do you? If you want to come in, shouldn't you serve me tea first?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Yunqiao's face flushed red instantly, and he struggled with his hands, saying, "What are you talking about? I'm just worried about Brother Mu Yun."
Xu Zhuohua glanced at Cheng Muyun, who was clearly shocked by what Xu Zhuohua had just said. He was clutching his wound and staring blankly at Xu Zhuohua.
Xu Zhuohua chuckled softly. So Cheng Muyun also had designs on Luo Yunqiao.
"Worried? An unmarried young lady runs to this remote mountain area and stays up all night taking care of a man. Her intentions are obvious to everyone. Is it just for the sake of taking care of him?"
Luo Yunqiao was speechless and turned to Cheng Muyun for help: "Brother Muyun, I didn't mean that."
Cheng Muyun frowned as he looked at Xu Zhuohua, remaining silent.
"Huh? You didn't mean that? Who would believe that? Judging by actions, not intentions, you're even deceiving yourself, that's ruthless."
Luo Yunqiao was so anxious she was about to cry. As the beloved daughter of a wealthy businessman, she had never suffered such humiliation.
She never failed to get what she wanted, but with Cheng Muyun, she kept running into obstacles.
Using business dealings as an excuse, he followed Cheng Muyun to the arduous Tiger Wolf Mountain, where he fought a battle with the Japanese and was nearly scared to death.
When Cheng Muyun was injured, she wanted to take care of him closely, but Cheng Muyun never let her get close. Every time they were together, Zhang Qi stood in the way. She watched Cheng Muyun get injured and suffer, but all she could do was deliver medicine.
She had considered Xu Zhuohua's accusations, but had never committed them, so she felt extremely wronged.
Luo Yunqiao couldn't shake off Xu Zhuohua's hand and was so anxious he almost cried: "I will never admit to something I didn't do!"
Xu Zhuohua was suddenly overcome with anger and wanted to say something more.
"Alright! Zhuohua, stop! I'm keeping an eye on things for you. Miss Luo didn't have any contact with Young Marshal Cheng, so stop making trouble!"
Xu Jixin, who had somehow walked up to Xu Zhuohua on crutches, yelled at her, leaving Xu Zhuohua stunned.
Luo Yunqiao finally broke free from Xu Zhuohua's grasp and ran out of the house, overwhelmed with shame.
Lifting the curtain brought a gust of cold wind, which sobered Xu Zhuohua up a bit.
She looked at Xu Jixin and asked blankly, "Second Brother, what did you just say?"
Xu Jixin sat down in the chair and looked at Xu Zhuohua helplessly. "I've been keeping an eye on things for you. Young Marshal Cheng has never done anything out of line. Chen Sihai has nothing better to do than play matchmaker. He never speaks of any innocent couple. Don't believe him."
This Chen Sihai, with his honest and simple appearance, actually talks a lot of nonsense.
Xu Zhuohua's face immediately turned red. Wasn't what she just did just an unreasonable tantrum?
...
Pfft—
Cheng Muyun couldn't help but chuckle. Xu Zhuohua bit her lip and looked over. He was covering his wound, his eyes were deep and his lips were swaying as he smiled.
"Is Zhuohua jealous of me?"
Xu Zhuohua's face turned even redder. "Who's jealous! I'm not."
Cheng Muyun reached out and grabbed Xu Zhuohua's wrist, gently rubbing it. "Seeing how furious you were just now, I felt very touched."
Xu Jixin opened the food box. "That's enough. Young Marshal Cheng, stop spoiling my little sister. If this continues, she'll definitely tear the roof off."
Cheng Muyun smiled and said, "It's good to remove it now, then we can cover it with a new one."
Looking at Cheng Muyun's doting gaze, Xu Zhuohua couldn't help but smile.
Fortunately, Cheng Muyun is a devoted man; otherwise, he wouldn't be worthy of my heroic act of jumping into the fire.
"Zhuohua, stop grinning like an idiot. Come over here and feed this soup to Young Marshal Cheng."
Xu Zhuohua took the small bowl of soup, which was now only half full because Xu Zhuohua had thrown the food box on the table earlier.
Cheng Muyun sat up against the pillow, opened his mouth, and pretended to ask Xu Zhuohua to feed him.
Feeling guilty for touching his wound, I had no choice but to start feeding him with a spoon.
Cheng Muyun smiled and sipped his soup slowly.
He drank slowly, his smile as warm as the March sun, as if he thoroughly enjoyed being fed by Xu Zhuohua.
Xu Zhuohua's anger gradually subsided with Cheng Muyun's smile.
After feeding him, Xu Jixin had already heated the scalpel with an alcohol lamp.
Xu Zhuohua turned around and was startled, thinking she had returned to her high school chemistry class.
"Second brother, what are you doing?"
Xu Jixin silently took out iodine and gauze, "Disinfect and treat the wound."
Xu Zhuohua then remembered that Xu Jixin was a medical student and a skilled surgeon.
Seeing Xu Zhuohua standing there in a daze, Xu Jixin explained, "This is an alcohol lamp. It leaves no residue after burning, making it more effective at disinfecting than candles. Iodine is also a disinfectant."
