Chapter 166 Hmm, it hurts...!



Pei Zhiyu was a little surprised.

But in this situation, she really couldn't bear to push the person away.

Until Qin Hezhou took the initiative to let go of her and raised his head, with tears still in his eyes, just like the real thing.

His feigned misery reminded Pei Zhiyu of—

He had the same expression on his face when he told himself he was bankrupt on the day he got the marriage certificate.

"Hmph." Pei Zhiyu snorted coldly and turned his head away from him, but he was still a little angry in his heart.

But thinking about the injury on Qin Hezhou's hand, she couldn't just sit there and watch. She asked helplessly, "Is there a medicine box?"

"Yeah." He raised his chin slightly and pointed in a direction for her, "In the second cabinet from the left."

Pei Zhiyu took the medicine box and sat down next to Qin Hezhou, taking his hand and placing it on his knee.

"Oh..." She couldn't help but sigh.

This shocking wound had several large cuts. It was estimated that he had pulled out the fragments himself, but countless small wounds still remained.

"Actually, you can call Zhou Yanli. He's a doctor and his family owns a hospital." Pei Zhiyu said while disinfecting, "Why do you have to call me?"

"Don't you know?" Qin Hezhou asked in a calm voice.

Pei Zhiyu used a sterilized hemostat to pull out two fragments for him and scoffed nonchalantly: "Know what?"

"Hiss--" Qin Hezhou felt pain.

He frowned, his eyes fixed on the sly smile on Pei Zhiyu's lips, and answered with a gasp, "I want to see you, I want to see you, don't you know?"

They were so close that they could lock the person in their arms with just a flick of their fingers.

Even if you breathe a little harder, the other person can feel the surge of your heart through the surging breath.

Pei Zhiyu was busy cleaning his wound but did not respond to what he had just said.

As if pretending not to hear.

How could I not hear it!

Qin Hezhou endured the pain, his injured hand suddenly clenched into a fist, and pleaded in a deep voice: "Please don't hide from me, okay?"

"..." Pei Zhiyu remained silent, but her obviously fluctuating breathing betrayed her panic.

As Qin Hezhou exerted more force, the glass shards that had been stuck in his flesh and had not yet been removed were causing secondary damage to his palm.

This almost self-harming behavior seemed to be a testament to Pei Zhiyu's care for him...

“That’s enough!”

She admitted defeat, she was indeed not as cruel as him, and could watch him with blood on his hands without being moved.

"I'm right in front of you now, and I'm not running away. Since you asked me to come over and help you deal with it, can you just behave yourself?"

Qin Hezhou nodded and spread out his hands.

Pei Zhiyu sighed softly and continued to pick out the tiny broken glass shards.

He was indeed able to endure it. He said he would be obedient and didn't say a word. He gritted his teeth until Pei Zhiyu finally cleaned his wound.

"Well--"

"Does it hurt?" she asked.

Qin Hezhou nodded vigorously, "Yeah, it hurts...!"

“Serves you right.”

"Um?"

"I've learned my lesson and won't cause trouble for myself next time." Pei Zhiyu said frankly. Although he spoke harshly, his hands were much gentler.

Qin Hezhou was stunned for a moment and asked, "You... figured it out?"

"Just because I've been fooled by you a few times doesn't mean I'm really stupid." She sneered, "Who could hurt you so badly? You obviously did it yourself."

Besides, even if someone really wanted to hurt Qin Hezhou, this entire building is his people. Who would be so stupid as to take action here?

After hearing what Pei Zhiyu said, Qin Hezhou did not feel embarrassed about being exposed. Instead, he seemed a little... happy?

He jumped for joy, chirping and pestering Pei Zhiyu, asking, "Since you've already guessed it, why did you still come?"

“…”What a bullshit question!

Pei Zhiyu didn't answer.

Seeing that Qin Hezhou was about to use the same trick again, she didn't fall for it anymore. Who would feel sorry for a green tea girl?

She said viciously, "If you hurt yourself again, I will disappear from your sight immediately."

Who doesn't know how to threaten others?

The effect was immediate, and Qin Hezhou obediently let go of his hand.

Pei Zhiyu really couldn't help it, rolled his eyes at him, then grabbed the hand covered in dried blood and continued to clean it.

"Why did the people from the Lin Group come to see you?"

Qin Hezhou was visibly stunned by the sudden change of topic. After a moment's hesitation, he replied, "Pei Guangyuan sent someone to send an invitation to the birthday party."

Pei Zhiyu paused, a little surprised: "He sent you an invitation?"

"Um."

"The purpose is not pure," she said.

Then, a memory flashed through his mind. Some time ago, Wan Xiaoyu had mentioned to him that the senior executives of Lin's company had absconded with the money.

Seeing her lost in thought, Qin Hezhou hooked his pinky finger over hers and said, "I asked someone to check and they said it was a funding issue. I'm trying to find some connections with the Qin family."

"Oh!" Pei Zhiyu laughed contemptuously. She dodged the finger and murmured, "Nothing good can stop you from getting up early. He still wants to try to get close to the Qin family. What a pipe dream."

Qin Hezhou was not annoyed when his fingers were shaken off.

On the contrary, because of Pei Zhiyu's words, he laughed, "Well, you are right, he has offended the wife of the president of Qin Corporation, and he still wants to benefit from Qin Corporation."

“What a wild idea!”

Pei Zhiyu knew that he was teasing her on purpose, but she didn't feel angry. She was still thinking about what happened before.

Actually, I am not that angry anymore, but I just can't let it go.

When Qin Hezhou asked her if she could go home and stop hiding from him, Pei Zhiyu had no answer at all.

He lowered his eyes, but still couldn't help the emotions pouring out: "Pei Zhiyu..."

"Um?"

"If you don't need to apologize, can you tell me what I can do to make up for what happened before?"

"..." She suddenly looked up and met his eyes.

Now she can conclude that it was not a dream that day, and it was indeed Qin Hezhou who came to the hospital to find her.

He says sorry but she doesn't accept it.

He asked what she needed to do, but she didn't know what she needed to do to get over the hurdle in her heart.

After a long silence, he could only say, "It depends on your sincerity."

"Okay, I'll let you feel my sincerity." Qin Hezhou smiled because of the unclear answer.

I was only happy for two seconds when I heard Pei Zhiyu say, "You asked me why I came."

"Hmm?" He was stunned, then nodded: "Hmm!"

She put the iodine in place, held Qin Hezhou's hand, and blew carefully on the wound, bringing out waves of tingling and itching.

Then a voice as melodious as the chirping of an oriole sounded, and she said with great seriousness:

"Because you wanted to see me..."

"And I, too, long to see you."
