Chapter 10 Innocence
Lu Qian saw the bandages placed at the bedside, she moved over and picked them out one by one.
From Cheng Yi's perspective, he could see Lu Qian's fair calves trembling slightly due to nervousness.
Lu Qian's smooth black hair was neatly tied up and hung on one side, revealing the girl's delicate neck and a part of her slender back in front of him.
Cheng Yi frowned in displeasure. Sui and Tang had a bad taste and liked women's backs.
The white silk nightgown wrapped around her small, protruding butterfly bones, and the empty fabric hanging around her waist made it difficult not to have fantasies about this clean body.
Cheng Yi's eyes became darker and darker, and the distracted expression in his eyes became increasingly difficult to discern as he squinted his eyes.
Lu Qian picked and chose, and as she picked, she felt that everything was useful, so she simply threw everything she had picked back into the medicine box and carried it to Cheng Yi.
Looking at the man sitting on the bed with such domineering power and as majestic as a mountain, she was momentarily at a loss.
It was difficult for her to find a good place to bandage Cheng Yi in this position, and the problem was... she didn't dare let Cheng Yi move.
But Cheng Yi's wound was still bleeding, and it would only get worse if not treated.
Lu Qian had no choice but to smooth down her skirt and squat beside the bed, next to the wound on Cheng Yi's side.
Cheng Yi didn't look at her or talk to her, which made Lu Qian feel a little relieved.
The wound looked shocking in Lu Qian's eyes.
The blade was over 20cm long and didn't seem to be very sharp. There were burrs around the wound. The wound was so deep that it had cut through Cheng Yi's subcutaneous fat and severed his hard muscles.
She picked up a large ball of gauze and wet it with plenty of saline solution.
"It might hurt a little, just bear with it."
Lu Qian reminded him in a soft voice with a slight tremor.
Cheng Yi raised his eyebrows at Lu Qian's words. Asking him to endure the pain? This woman...
Seeing that Cheng Yi did not respond, Lu Qian raised his hand and gently wiped the skin around Cheng Yi's wound.
Lu Qian could see that the wound had obviously been treated by someone, but the person who treated the wound seemed a little too rough, and the bandage was only slightly better than an emergency one.
After wiping it a few times, Lu Qian realized something was wrong.
The tense atmosphere just now made Lu Qian ignore Cheng Yi's half-naked body.
After calming down a little, she realized that Cheng Yi was not wearing any clothes.
Cheng Yi's burly body, as if carved by a knife or an axe, was right in front of him. Lu Qian didn't dare to look anywhere other than the wound.
But even so, she could feel her face getting hot uncontrollably.
After a thorough cleanup, the ground was covered with piles of blood-stained gauze.
Lu Qian picked up a cotton ball, dipped it in a large amount of iodine, and gently placed her slender fingers on Cheng Yi's waist, which had no trace of fat, slightly stretching the lines of the wound and disinfecting it bit by bit.
A cool and numbing touch came from his waist, and Cheng Yi's cold face couldn't help but tilt.
Perhaps because squatting was too tiring or because the skirt was inconvenient, Lu Qian had changed to a half-kneeling sitting position.
Her already boneless body became more docile than ever in this position. The redness of her nose and eyes from crying had not yet faded, and her lowered eyebrows and drooping eyes made her look so delicate that it tickled people's hearts.
Cheng Yi could see the tips of Lu Qian's ears turning pink due to embarrassment. The pink color seemed to be warm and could burn Cheng Yi's eyes.
The silver bell on the ankle rested on the floor, making extremely subtle sounds as the little feet swayed due to the discomfort of kneeling.
Cheng Yi didn't know why, but this voice always sounded so irritating to his ears.
So much so that when Lu Qian walked into the wrong room and appeared at his door just now, he thought it was a special vibration frequency developed by his enemy, specifically designed to deal with his body structure.
But in fact, he knew that Lu Qian's background was very clean, otherwise Sui Tang would not have kept her alive until now.
Hengxiang Pavilion is the information hub of the Sui family in Beigang and the core location for the Sui family’s global industrial chain.
Sui and Tang dynasties would not even let in a fly of unknown origin.
When Sui Tang asked Lu Qian's name in the car, he was not just chatting, but at that time, he had already quietly started to investigate Lu Qian.
Just one name, Sui family, can wipe out anyone.
Lu Qian carefully applied the medical tape and firmly fixed the medicated gauze on Cheng Yi's waist.
After doing all this, Lu Qian had a thin layer of sweat on his head. Treating wounds was really a laborious and delicate job.
"Okay, as long as it doesn't get wet it should be fine."
As Lu Qian spoke, he stood up and cleaned up the medical residues on the ground.
Cheng Yi came back to his senses and looked down at his waist.
The neatly-formed medical tape was firmly attached to his skin, minimizing the scope of the bandage as much as possible while still accurately covering the horrific wound.
Cheng Yi couldn't help but relax his brows. It was wrapped much better than Jiang Luan.
Lu Qian cleaned up all the dirt on the ground, holding a pile of garbage and bowed slightly to Cheng Yi.
"Then I'll be leaving first."
"Why do you know this?"
Before Lu Qian turned around, Cheng Yi's low, cold words frightened her so much that her back went numb and her body shook uncontrollably.
Did she do something unnecessary to make Cheng Yi suspicious?
Lu Qian tightened the garbage in his arms and mumbled, "I really just got on the wrong bus..."
"I asked you why you did this."
Cheng Yi's voice became three points colder, which was proof of his impatience.
Lu Qian was frightened again, took a step back cautiously, and hunched his shoulders.
"Ever since we were little, myself and my family members have been injured frequently, and I've been good at bandaging common wounds."
With many years of experience in interrogating prisoners, Cheng Yi immediately heard the evasiveness in Lu Qian's words.
But he didn't ask any further questions. There was no need to deal with a little girl he met by chance.
Cheng Yi casually took off the gun from his waist and threw it on the table with a bang.
"You go back."
This seemingly casual action almost scared Lu Qian to death. Can a gun be thrown away like this?
For a moment she didn't even hear what Cheng Yi said.
Seeing Lu Qian still standing there in a daze, Cheng Yi sighed and repeated in a cold voice, "I said, you can go back now."
Why is this little girl so confused and dazed?
Lu Qian finally came back to his senses, "Oh! Oh oh oh, okay, okay, I'll leave now."
Lu Qian was like a frightened little rabbit, holding the garbage in her arms and running out of Cheng Yi's room in small steps.
Cheng Yi looked at the pretty figure and a hint of bitterness flashed through his heart.
Cheng Yi frowned and closed his eyes silently.
It seems that if you can't see it, you won't think about it.
Between breaths, Cheng Yi heard that sweet tone again.
"That's right."
Cheng Yi slowly raised his eyes, his narrow eyes were not fully open, and the cold gaze shot out from the slit was filled with a hint of disbelief.
Lu Qian stood at the door and gave Cheng Yi a standard 90-degree bow.
"Thank you and Brother Tang for saving me."
Then, without even looking at Cheng Yi, he stood up and ran away.
Cheng Yi's eyes moved away from the door without even a second of lingering.
The cold and murderous intent in his eyes immediately returned to its usual state.
