Burn ward.
After a whole afternoon of fussing, Chu Yu was first taken to the advanced emergency room, and then transferred to the burn unit to recuperate.
His upper body was stripped of his clothes, and bandages were wrapped all over his back.
Chu Yu was injured in the back, so he could only lie face down.
He frowned in discomfort, not daring to close his eyes to rest.
Lin Yang and Lu Xiangxi sat at opposite ends of the hospital bed, keeping watch over each other.
Lin Yang looked apologetic, her head bowed absentmindedly, muttering repeatedly, "I'm sorry."
Meanwhile, Lu Xiangxi was peeling an apple, then using the tip of the knife to cut the peeled flesh into small pieces, tenderly trying to feed it to Chu Yu.
Chu Yu tilted his head to the right, avoiding the piece of fruit that was about to be put into his mouth.
"I'm sorry, I've dragged you into this..." Lin Yang clenched her hands tightly and pressed them to her forehead, her eyes fixed on Chu Yu's horrifying back injuries.
Chu Yu stretched out his long arm and placed his broad palm on Lin Yang's head, gently stroking her head to ease her guilt.
"It's not your fault, I did it willingly." Chu Yu's voice was very soft, like a piece of light paper that would drift away with the wind, yet her words carried such weight.
"Ahem." Lu Xiangxi gripped the fruit knife tighter, deliberately coughing to break the ambiguous atmosphere that was about to be created.
Chu Yu ignored her and continued to gaze at her tenderly.
"Ouch~" Lu Xiangxi cried out, then sobbed, "Ah! I'm bleeding, Brother Chu Yu, it hurts so much, waaaah..."
Tears fell instantly.
The fruit knife fell to the ground, and the hand holding it, with only a small bead of blood barely visible, was presented to Chu Yu.
Her delicate and pitiful appearance truly reveals her true nature as a manipulative woman.
No wonder she was the scheming second female lead in her previous life.
Lin Yang peered through her fingers and saw Lu Xiangxi's affected behavior clearly, and couldn't help but feel admiration for her.
"Brother Chu Yu, look at me! It hurts so much, waaaah..." Seeing that Chu Yu's eyes were still fixed on Lin Yang, Lu Xiangxi cried even louder.
After being called a second time, Chu Yu reluctantly turned his head, offering a few perfunctory words of comfort, a completely different attitude from how he treated Lin Yang, "Where is it? Let me see."
"Oh, it hurts so much! Brother Chu Yu, blow on it for me, the blood is still flowing~" Lu Xiangxi deliberately moved closer to Chu Yu, their faces almost touching, glancing triumphantly at Lin Yang out of the corner of her eye, as if she were showing off.
Lin Yang turned to the side and lazily yawned with her back to them.
She secretly moved her face, which had been stiff and motionless.
Fortunately, she's used to acting, so she can handle the "absent-minded" acting role relatively easily.
She felt somewhat apologetic about Chu Yu's injuries, but not as much as she made it out to be.
After all, the doctor's words after the surgery were still ringing in her ears.
The operating lights went out, and the doctor came out. "The injury is nothing serious, just a minor burn."
"But that bowl of scalding soup was clearly spilled all over his back, so how come he's not seriously injured?" Lin Yang asked, puzzled.
"Based on the injuries, the bowl of soup probably wasn't all spilled on him. I checked his clothes on his back and it was mostly water; there wasn't much soup, it just looked scary," the doctor explained in detail.
water?
Upon closer reflection, there was indeed an empty bottle of mineral water next to the overturned packing box when she left the film set.
Could it have been accidentally spilled when the boiled pork slices were knocked over?
After the doctor's explanation, Lin Yang understood the situation, and her guilt towards Chu Yu lessened considerably.
"Oh, right, there's this patient who's acting strangely. He kept insisting that we bandage him up in a scary way. I wonder what his intention is." The doctor suddenly remembered something and reminded Lin Yang, who was about to leave to visit Chu Yu.
oh?
Then so be it, let him see how remorseful I am.
