"It's okay, it's okay. I just accidentally bumped into the bed. I'm sorry, Sister Chunmei, for waking you up." Jian Shu rubbed his forehead and quickly apologized to Li Chunmei who was woken up by him.
Li Chunmei had also come to her senses by now. Seeing her covering her forehead, it was easy to guess what had happened.
He glanced at her with a reproachful look and said with equal concern, "Hey, why are you still talking about this now? When can't you sleep? The important thing right now is you. That bump just now was pretty hard, wasn't it? Put your hand down so I can see it."
Speaking of this, her mouth was full of regret.
Jianshu breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that there was only a swelling on his forehead and no bleeding or scars.
"Don't worry, it's no big deal. It's just a swelling. I'll apply a towel to it and it will be fine after the swelling goes down." Looking at the three people with concerned expressions, Jian Shu put his hand down, indicating that he was fine.
But the reactions of the three people were completely beyond her expectations.
"It's such a big bump, and you still say it's nothing. Do you think it's serious only if it leaves a scar?" Li Chunmei saw the bump on her forehead and couldn't help but look at her reproachfully.
Zhou Xuemin, standing by, said the same thing, "Kid, how much strength did you use to get hit like this?"
Even the usually shy Li Heping couldn't help but become serious and nodded, saying, "It's very serious."
Is it really that serious? Jian Shu couldn't help but feel a little suspicious. She felt fine when she touched it.
However, the attitudes of the three people still made her worry, so she quickly pretended to take out a mirror from her luggage bag, which was actually a space, to look at her injuries.
Ouch, that looks a bit miserable.
After taking a closer look, Jian Shu realized that it was not as serious as it looked. The reason why it looked a bit tragic was mainly because her skin was too white. The sudden appearance of a red and swollen area made her look a bit miserable when compared with the two photos.
But in fact, it was just a small bump. After two days of swelling, it was fine.
"Xiaoshu, hand me the towel. I'll wet it for you. Put it on your forehead. It will at least relieve the pain." Li Chunmei got out of bed without knowing when, and was now standing beside Jianshu's bed.
"Oh, okay. Thank you, Sister Chunmei." Jian Shu didn't refuse. After all, although it wasn't that serious, she still needed a cold compress. If it weren't so inconvenient to enter the space, she would have wanted to apply ice.
Jianshu took out a new towel from his luggage bag and handed it to Li Chunmei, then thanked her.
"Don't be polite. When we are out, we should help each other." Li Chunmei took the towel and walked out.
Jianshu didn't know where she went, as she didn't find any faucet on the train.
There are differences between men and women. Zhou Xuemin and Li Heping were unable to help much, so they had to stand aside and wait for Li Chunmei to come back to see if there was anything they could do to help.
After a while, Li Chunmei came back with a basin, which was mostly filled with water and a few ice cubes.
"Sister Chunmei, where did you get this washbasin and ice cubes?" Jianshu asked in surprise.
The washbasin is okay, on such a long train, you never know who would bring a washbasin. But ice cubes are different, who would bring ice cubes on the train? It’s not easy to preserve them.
Li Chunmei walked in cautiously carrying a basin of ice water. Seeing this, Zhou Xuemin and Li Heping quickly made room for her.
She placed the basin on the ground and placed the towel in it, letting it soak completely. She then wrung it dry and handed it to Jian Shu, explaining, "I just spoke to the conductor about the situation. She got me this basin and ice."
She said it simply, but Jianshu knew it well. It was definitely not that easy to get a wash basin and ice cubes. Forgetting the wash basin, even the ice cubes were not common in an era when refrigerators were not even heard of. How could they be so easy to get in the middle of summer?
Holding the towel in his hand, Jian Shu couldn't help but clench it tightly and said gratefully, "Sister Chunmei, I really don't know how to thank you. Thank you!"
Before they met yesterday, they were complete strangers. It was really amazing that they could achieve this.
"Why are you saying this? It's what I should do. If you really want to thank me, just apply it quickly and hand it to me when the towel is no longer cold, so as not to waste this basin of water." Li Chunmei had no intention of taking credit for it. In her opinion, what she did was what she should do, and others would make the same choice as her.
Jian Shu said nothing more, silently applying the ice to her forehead. The ice melted quickly, and she didn't want to waste her effort. She knew everything else.
In this way, two people passed it to Jianshu and applied it to him at the same time, until the water temperature returned to normal and the pain in Jianshu's head disappeared.
Of course, the swelling hadn't gone down yet. It wasn't magic water, so it wouldn't go away that quickly. It was simply numb from the cold water. If she poked the skin next to it with her fingertips, she wouldn't feel anything.
"How are you? Are you feeling better? If not, I'll ask the conductor to give me some ice." After silently looking at the water in the basin that had returned to room temperature, Li Chunmei raised her head and asked Jian Shu.
The water isn't cold anymore, so applying it won't have much effect. If that doesn't work, I'll just have to ask for more ice. It's not easy, but I still have to try. There's no point in giving it halfway.
After touching his cool forehead, Jian Shu said to Li Chunmei, "No need, Sister Chunmei. This ice water is very effective. My forehead doesn't hurt anymore. I just need to wait for the swelling to go away."
There are medicines in her space, so she can just take some anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving medicines later.
