Shi Qian couldn't do anything about Fu Xiuhan. Fu Xiuhan didn't seem to have any ill intentions towards him, so he couldn't just turn him away. Besides, after washing his face, he had figured it out: his injury was indeed because of Fu Xiuhan.
Therefore, he naturally has the right to accept Fu Xiuhan's repayment.
Since we can't avoid it, we might as well enjoy the young master's care.
Shi Qian opened the door, turned around and continued drying her hair with a towel, then heard a gasp behind her.
"Oh, you washed your hair?"
"How can you wash your hair? Your hand is injured, isn't it?"
"Let me see, has it gotten wet? Has the wound reopened?"
...
Fu Xiuhan pounced on Shi Qian like a husky, scanned his wound with his eyes, and only stopped when he confirmed that the gauze was just a little wet and there was no bleeding.
"You still need to be careful these next few days and avoid getting it wet."
"Otherwise, if the wound gets wet, it will crack or become infected, and it will get worse."
"You were injured because of me, so it's my responsibility to take good care of your hand."
"Where's the hairdryer? I'll dry your hair for you. You'll get sick if your hair isn't dry in this weather."
...
After checking the wound, Fu Xiuhan helped Shi Qian sit on the sofa and began searching the whole place for a hairdryer. Finally, he found the target in a small cabinet in the living room.
"You can sit here, I'll help you."
"This is the first time in all my years as a young master that I've served someone. You're lucky."
...
Shi Qian watched Fu Xiuhan fussing around. He didn't know if he was lucky or not, but he felt like Fu Xiuhan was going to tear his scalp off.
Those who know the facts might think it's hair drying, while those who don't might think it's hair removal.
Unable to bear it any longer, Shi Qian finally decided to confiscate the tools used in the crime from Fu Xiuhan in order to save her hair.
Fu Xiuhan never flattered anyone, and to show his sincerity, he went all out.
Shi Qian casually fiddled with the hairdryer a few times.
Fu Xiuhan was suddenly deprived of his chance to shine and stood pitifully to the side.
Shi Qian was speechless. Was Fu Xiuhan's aloofness in the previous life all an act? Why is he like a little dog wagging its tail at him every day in this life?
If Fu Xiuhan's aloofness in his previous life was just an act, then Qian had to admire his acting skills for being able to suppress such a noisy true self.
If other people in the school found out that the aloof school bully they perceive was actually this talkative, they would be shocked.
After Shi Qian finished drying his hair, Fu Xiuhan carefully took the hairdryer from him and put it aside. Then he pushed the coffee table in front of Shi Qian and opened the breakfast table, which consisted of light and appetizing congee and side dishes.
"That's all we can eat today. You're injured and there are many things you need to avoid. Let's eat something simple for now, and I'll treat you to a meal when you're better."
Shi Qian refused Fu Xiuhan's offer to feed him by hand, and instead used his good hand to drink the porridge spoonful by spoonful.
After Shi Qian finished her porridge, Fu Xiuhan awkwardly packed up the trash on the table, watched Shi Qian lie down on her dormitory bed, and then reluctantly left.
Shi Qian didn't get a good night's rest and fell asleep soon after lying down. When he woke up, it was already dark. He looked at his watch and it was 7 p.m.
He came back around 9 a.m., got ready, and slept until this late. It seems his body is really too weak; he couldn't handle just one fight and needs such a long rest.
Shi Qian opened her bedroom door and found two people sitting on the sofa outside.
Meng Qing had already finished class and returned. He had come back at noon to bring Shi Qian lunch, but Shi Qian still hadn't gotten up by the time lunch break was almost over, so he had to put the things down and go back to class. Evening self-study was optional; the school didn't require it. Meng Qing was worried about Shi Qian's injury, so he came back as soon as get out of class ended.
Fu Xiuhan had come several times before, but there was no response when he knocked on the door. He didn't want to rush in, so he followed Meng Qing in. He also packed lunch, but Shi Qian was still asleep. He thought he could just wait here while Meng Qing went to class, but when Meng Qing went out, she dragged Fu Xiuhan out with her.
Fu Xiuhan could only come over in the evening. The two sat on the sofa in silence, waiting for Shi Qian to wake up.
When Shi Qian came out, she saw two men who were frozen in place like statues, and she had no idea what they were up to.
What are you doing?
When Meng Qing and Fu Xiuhan saw that Shi Qian had gotten up, they both got up and went to Shi Qian's side.
"Are you feeling any better? Is there anything else that feels uncomfortable?"
Meng Qing asked first.
Not to be outdone, Fu Xiuhan quickly added, "I came to see you at noon, but you weren't up yet. You must be hungry after sleeping for so long. I ordered some food for you, it'll be here soon."
Shi Qian nudged the two people who were too close to him, signaling them to keep their distance, and then went to the water dispenser to pour himself a glass of water.
Meng Qing had originally planned to pack some food for Shi Qian, but she didn't know when he would wake up and was afraid the food would get cold again like it did at noon. She thought she would go out and buy food for Shi Qian after he woke up.
"What do you want to eat? I'll go buy it for you?" Meng Qing said.
"What do you want to eat? I'll order more for you," Fu Xiuhan retorted, not to be outdone.
Shi Qian finished drinking a whole glass of water before noticing the two of them behaving like they were vying for attention. She thought that since Fu Xiuhan had already ordered something delicious, there was no need to make another trip.
"No need, didn't you already order food? Just eat that."
It's just dinner, no need to make a fuss.
When Fu Xiuhan heard that Shi Qian had chosen to eat his food, he immediately gave Meng Qing a victorious look.
Meng Qing didn't say anything, but silently went to the back to pour Shi Qian another glass of warm water and handed it to her.
Shi Qian hadn't had enough to drink yet, so he said "thank you" and took another glass.
Fu Xiuhan was not having it. He took two steps closer and stared intently at the water glass in Shi Qian's hand, thinking that he would pour a glass for him after he finished drinking.
Just as Shi Qian finished drinking her water and put down her cup, Fu Xiuhan seized the opportunity to snatch it away, preparing to pour her another cup.
Shi Qian looked at Fu Xiuhan's inexplicable competitive spirit with some speechlessness, "I'm full, I don't need water, even if I did, I wouldn't be able to drink it."
Fu Xiuhan saw that Shi Qian really didn't want to drink anymore, so he gave up.
Fu Xiuhan's order arrived downstairs quickly, but he didn't want Shi Qian and Meng Qing to be alone together, so he asked Song Qi to pick it up. He completely forgot that the two of them lived in the same dormitory, and even if they weren't alone together now, they would be later.
Fu Xiuhan didn't care about all that. At this moment, he just didn't want to. Shi Qian liked him, so he might as well have Song Qi and Meng Qing switch dorms tomorrow.
Fu Xiuhan and Meng Qing locked eyes, both seeing the hostility in each other's eyes.
Meng Qing felt that Fu Xiuhan had ulterior motives towards Shi Qian. He had rejected Shi Qian before, but now he was shamelessly coming back. Did he change his mind because Shi Qian had become more beautiful? This guy who judges people by their appearance is not worthy of pursuing Shi Qian.
Fu Xiuhan felt that Meng Qing and Shi Qian were being a bit too intimate. He noticed Meng Qing's little actions on the first day of school and even suggested to Song Qi that they change seats. Could it be that she also had feelings for Shi Qian?
