Chapter 143 Su Lingyu blushed
Su Lingyu quickly raised her hand to wipe away the tears on her face. Her watery almond eyes were misty and her voice was choked and helpless.
"I wanted to get you a basin of warm water, but I put too much hot water in it so I added cold water. I accidentally added too much cold water and then poured in hot water... Now there's no hot water..."
Huo Yan's heart softened incredibly in an instant.
When he walked up to the aggrieved and annoyed woman, he just wanted to push her against the wall, kiss her hard, and love her wantonly.
But he didn't do that. He just held her neck with his big hands, kissed her forehead, and whispered to her: "It's okay, I'm not afraid of the cold."
Su Lingyu was anxious: "But..."
"I've been injured more seriously than this before, but I was able to take care of myself back then. This injury is nothing to me." Huo Yan smiled softly, "Not only do I not need your care now, I can even hold you in my arms, believe me."
Su Lingyu glared at him unhappily: "Then forget it!"
As she spoke, she picked up the basin and poured out the water. She bit her lip and said, "I'll go downstairs and get a kettle of water."
Water heaters had only been on the market for a short time in that era, so to her they were like antiques and not very useful.
Especially when the weather is cold, the water heater in the bathroom takes a very long time to heat up the water. It is faster to go to the kitchen downstairs to get a kettle.
When she finally got the water ready, Huo Yan reached out and felt it, and sure enough, it was neither hot nor cold.
Thinking of the injuries he suffered in the car accident, he asked Su Lingyu to get him a basin of water. The hot water she casually threw at him felt hot even for his thick skin, and he couldn't suppress the upward curve at the corners of his lips.
Su Lingyu looked at him in confusion: "Are you crazy? You are injured, but you are still so happy."
Of course Huo Yan would not tell why he was happy. If he did, the little ancestor would be too shy to talk to him tonight.
After Su Lingyu carefully wiped the blood around the wound, he cleaned the towel and wanted to wash his body again. Su Lingyu was worried that his wound would break open, so she said, "Let me do it."
She wrung out a towel and wiped his back. Her movements were not very skillful, so soft and light, as if he was a delicate and fragile porcelain. This kind of force was not very satisfying and even a little itchy.
But he said nothing.
After wiping his upper body, he stood up, unbuckled his belt in a few seconds, took off his military pants and threw them on the ground.
A pair of dark eyes stared at her intently, waiting for her next move.
He was standing and Su Lingyu was sitting. When she looked up, she saw the man's narrow waist, eight strong and distinct abdominal muscles, and two deep mermaid lines, the part covered by dark blue underwear.
The strong smell of male hormones mixed with some sweat came to Su Lingyu's face, and her face turned red immediately.
This person is getting more and more unreasonable!
Who is willing to serve him!
"You...are you shameless? Wipe it yourself!" She bit her lip and angrily threw the towel in her hand into the washbasin on the bedside table.
The splashing water wet the ground, and some of it splashed onto Huo Yan's long legs.
He chuckled, turned around, twisted the towel, and prepared to do it himself.
But the next moment, the towel in his hand was snatched away again.
"This is the first time, and the last time!" Su Lingyu said in a low voice, and even reached out to hit his leg, "Your pants are wet, go to the bathroom and change them, and wipe them yourself."
“…Okay.” Huo Yan responded hoarsely.
After she finished wiping slowly, he was so annoyed that he didn't dare turn around to look at her. He also forgot to get a change of clean underwear. He picked up the washbasin and walked straight to the bathroom.
Su Lingyu quickly called him: "Hey, you didn't take the clean one... that thing."
It was her subconscious reaction, but when Huo Yan suddenly turned around and saw the part that was bulging out from below, she was dumbfounded again, her almond-shaped eyes widened.
"What?" Huo Yan asked.
"Nothing!" Su Lingyu answered quickly, jumped onto the bed, pulled the quilt to cover herself, and started pretending to be an ostrich again.
Huo Yan reacted and looked down. His already hot ears turned even redder. Thinking about what she had just said, he immediately used the washbasin to cover up the abnormality of his body and walked to the closet to get a pair of clean underwear.
This time, it was Su Lingyu who was waiting for Huo Yan on the bed.
After waiting for a long time, the person didn't come back. She wondered if the person went to the bathroom to relieve himself, but the time was too long. After waiting for ten or twenty minutes, the person still didn't come back, so she got up and went to the bathroom.
She approached slowly and heard no sound from inside the closed bathroom, not even the legendary "groaning" or "gasping". Only then did she boldly knock on the door with confidence.
"Huo Yan, what took you so long?" she asked.
Soon, a man's helpless voice came from inside: "...it will take a while for it to disappear."
"..." Su Lingyu immediately opened the door. The man was wearing only a pair of underwear, standing in the bathroom without doing anything. The wound began to bleed again. He immediately asked in shame and anger, "Aren't you cold?"
"Don't want to scare you."
"I'm scared!" Su Lingyu didn't dare to look at him, and said to him fiercely, "You, you hurry out, you need to be bandaged with medicine! If you catch a cold, I won't take care of you."
“…Okay.” Huo Yan lowered his head and touched his nose, then followed obediently.
The two sat back on the bed.
Su Lingyu tried hard to ignore the changes in the man's body and focused on applying medicine and bandaging the wound.
After finally finishing it, she didn't care about anything else. After putting away the medicine box, she crawled into the quilt, covering her head. A muffled voice came from under the quilt: "The medicine has been changed. If you want... go to the bathroom yourself."
But Huo Yan didn't go.
He turned off the lights and got on the bed. He bent over and held her in his arms. He pulled off the quilt covering her head so that she could breathe fresh air, and was careful not to bump into her.
"You're not going?" Su Lingyu turned her head slightly and asked, very confused.
Huo Yan said, "No."
"Aren't you uncomfortable?"
Huo Yan's breathing became heavy for a moment. Between telling the truth and possibly annoying her, and lying and deceiving her, he chose to be honest in a roundabout way: "I can bear it."
Since he said he could tolerate it, Su Lingyu didn't care.
Her own mind was in a mess.
Sometimes she thought about the sleepless nights she had spent in the past ten days, sometimes she thought about the ugly knife wound on Huo Yan's waist, and sometimes she thought it was strange that she had cried just now.
Now that she thought about it, she didn't know why she was crying... Was it because she felt sorry for him, as Huo Yan said?
Su Lingyu's eyes suddenly widened.
When this thought popped into her mind, it was like a tangled ball of wool was straightened out. She suddenly glimpsed her true feelings from the chaos, and everything had an answer.
She was never stupid, she just had no experience in love and had never thought about it that way.
Did she actually fall in love with the man behind her without realizing it? Did she actually fall in love with Huo Yan?
Yes, if she didn't like her, why would she let him kiss her and allow him to do this and that to her?
With his hands covering his chest, Su Lingyu's face flushed in the night.
Even after the beginning of autumn, a man's sturdy body and hot body temperature are not only not offensive, but make people feel warm and comfortable.
It is easy to sleep in a cold bed alone with him around.
She turned around and snuggled into Huo Yan's arms. She rubbed her head against his chest and put her hands on his chest, feeling his heartbeat from time to time. She asked the system in her heart:
[Xiao Tongzi...If I don't want to give Huo Yan to someone else, will the mission be unfinished?]
