But... does this maid have Parkinson's? Why are her hands shaking so much? She could clearly feel that the liniment had spilled all over her back! It was practically flowing down!
Su Chen turned around, about to speak, when she was startled by the person applying the medicine to her.
"Money...money...Qian Duo?"
"Why didn't you tell me about all your injuries?" Qian Duo's voice trembled.
"What kind of injury is this?" She hadn't seen his back before, but judging from his expression, she could guess pretty much what it was. "It's just a bruise to fool people."
The pain in my back is nothing compared to the pain I felt a couple of days ago when I banged my head against the corner of the bed to stay awake.
Qian Duo remained silent for a while, then raised his hand slightly before lowering it again, his eyes lowered as if he were lost in thought.
He didn't speak for a long time.
"Tell me if you get hurt in the future."
Su Chen chuckled and said, "Why would I tell you? Will telling you heal my injury?"
“Tell me, and I’ll take care of you.” Qian Duo said this with utmost seriousness, his deep eyes shining with a light he had never seen before.
Su Chen looked up and met his gaze. In Qian Duo's memory, this was the first time she had ever looked at him so intently...
She said quietly, "Where did you learn these cheesy pickup lines from?"
The system was just awakened by the intense shock in Su Chen's heart, but it hadn't said anything. When it saw Qian Duo confessing his feelings, even this man's heart couldn't help but skip a beat. It was thinking that the silly host should finally get it now, right?
The host actually said something so jarring! It really infuriated him!
[Hey host, even if you can't act shy, just saying "okay" would be fine! What are you doing like this?] He now strongly suspects that the host isn't a woman! And most likely, he's a total straight man!
"What a load of rubbish! Didn't you see that his attitude was just a sugar-coated bullet? After enjoying the sweetness on the surface, he didn't give me a chance to breathe and 'blasted' me until I was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside."
[Dude! With an imagination like yours, it's a shame you're not writing novels. What kind of nonsense is this, all sweet talk? Didn't you see the deep affection in her eyes?]
Su Chen reached out and cupped Qian Duo's face in her hands, examining it closely before shaking her head and saying to the system, "I didn't see it, but to be honest, his eyes are really beautiful, hehehe..."
The host is too much of a pervert, the system can't bear to look...
Although Qian Duo stood there expressionless, his mind was already filled with questions.
He was just about to ask what cheesy pickup lines were when he saw Su Chen suddenly turn her head away and remain silent. He thought she was angry, and although he didn't know why, he figured an apology would be the right thing to do.
Just as he was about to apologize, Su Chen suddenly turned around and cupped his face in her hands, her eyes, which had been empty before, suddenly blinking and staring at him intently.
If someone else were there, they would definitely see that his ears were red and burning hot, as if they had been scorched by fire.
Just as he was anticipating what she would say, she suddenly let go of his hand and shook her head under his expectant gaze...
Instantly, Qian Duo's passionate heart cooled completely, as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over it.
"Okay... I understand." The eagerness in his eyes gradually faded, returning to his usual calm.
To be precise, it has become no different from stagnant water, and even when the wind rises, it cannot stir up a ripple.
Qian Duo looked up at the garden full of red leaves, a smile curving his lips, but the smile didn't reach his eyes before it faded away.
Watching Qian Duo's desolate figure as he left, Su Chen's eyes darkened.
