Chapter 238 The future I want must have you
Yun Chen put one hand on Yan Shijiu's shoulder, found the right position, and used the other hand to dip the medicine powder and apply it carefully to him.
Yan Shijiu sat quietly without saying another word, letting Yun Chen manipulate him.
He felt as if a beautiful and gentle butterfly was landing on his shoulder, gently kissing his back, making his heart numb and itchy.
For some reason, he suddenly hoped that a landslide would occur at this moment, binding him and Yun Chen together forever.
He was reluctant to disturb this feeling, but was afraid that he would sink further, so he finally spoke:
"Yun Chen, did you wash your hands after going to the toilet?"
Without even thinking, Yun Chen raised his hand and hit him on the head.
Hearing Yan Shijiu's playful voice again, Yun Chen felt much more at ease.
It was so quiet just now. She was applying medicine to a naked man, and the atmosphere really made her feel awkward.
Soon, the medicine powder was used up, and there was still a wound on Yan Shijiu's back near his waist that had not been coated.
Yun Chen was unwilling to let it go carelessly, "Yan Shijiu, give me another bottle of medicine."
She received a new bottle in her hand, opened it, and applied the medicine.
Listening to the sounds of Yan Shijiu and Wan Chen putting on their clothes again, Yun Chen untied the belt covering his eyes and began to apply medicine on Yan Shijiu's wrist.
The wound on the wrist was too deep and ordinary powder was useless. Yun Chen had to apply ointment that could remove dead tissue and regenerate new flesh, and then bandaged the wound with cloth to promote healing.
While bandaging, Yun Chen noticed that Yan Shijiu's right wrist was wearing a thick bracelet that was so dirty that the color could not be seen:
"What is this? Take it off. I'll put it on after I apply the medicine on you."
Yan Shijiu raised his eyebrows and smiled mysteriously, "This is my amulet. I can't take it off, it's tied in a knot."
Without asking any questions, Yun Chen brought the oil lamp close to Yan Shijiu's wrist, untied the bracelet, and carefully applied the ointment on it.
"Yun Chen, you came to save me after everyone evacuated, right?" Yan Shijiu suddenly asked.
Yun Chen didn't even raise his head, busy applying the medicine while saying:
"Yes, I was at the breach in the city wall, ready to rush out and jump into the river to escape, but then I remembered I hadn't saved you yet, so I came back."
Yan Shijiu was obviously very happy to get such an answer. He curled his lips and said:
"This shows that you care about me very much."
"Nonsense!" Yun Chen rolled his eyes at Yan Shijiu. "You're my friend, how could I not remember you? It's my fault that I came too late, causing you to suffer so much. Sigh!"
Obviously, what Yun Chen understood was completely different from what Yan Shijiu said.
But Yan Shijiu didn't care.
In his opinion, Yun Chen's willingness to sacrifice himself to save him alone was enough to prove her sincerity.
Yan Shijiu gave Wan Chen a look, and the latter immediately said, "I've finished applying the medicine, I'm going to keep watch," and then slipped out of the room.
When there were only two people left in the room, Yan Shijiu sat on the edge of the couch, leaned over and lowered his head, looking at Yun Chen who was squatting in front of him.
Although he was very thin, he was still tall enough to cover her completely.
Her face was so close to him, so small, only as big as his palm; but her eyes were big, watery, clean, without a trace of filth, and even the ruthlessness when she killed was pure without any impurities.
She held his wrist and applied the medicine attentively. Because she was too serious, her lips were slightly pouting, looking very cute and naive like a young girl.
Restraining his inner restlessness, he said with a serious expression:
"Yun Chen, you like me."
It is not a question, but a very confident statement.
She didn't know what narcissistic or mean thing this guy had done, and she didn't even bother to roll her eyes. "Yes, yes, yes, I like you, I like your whole family."
"You won't like my family." He seemed not to have noticed her perfunctory response at all, and continued to talk to himself:
"Yun Chen, I have a lot of things to do now, so I can't like you yet. Give me some more time."
"No problem, I'll give you five hundred years. If that's not enough, five thousand years will be fine too!" she replied.
He looked up at the darkness in the sky, his eyes gradually darkening, and he didn't know whether he was talking to her or to himself:
"Don't be happy yet. Wait a little longer. Wait until you are made a marquis and appointed a prime minister, and wait until the country is stable. Only those who have achieved everything will be eligible for the final reward."
The light was too dim, she couldn't see his expression, and she didn't want to pay attention to his mumbling words at all, so she said nonchalantly:
"I didn't realize your ambition is to become a marquis or a prime minister? Not bad, not bad. It's like a mountain between two different professions, and I don't know how to be an official either, so I wish you success!"
"It should be 'us.'" He stared at her, his eyes burning. "In the future I want, you must be there."
By this time, she had applied medicine to his wrist and bandaged it. She breathed a sigh of satisfaction and clapped her hands.
"Then I'll try my best and not die too early. When you become rich and powerful, don't forget me. When you become a marquis or a prime minister, I, as your friend, will also benefit from it!"
After she finished speaking, she was about to stand up, but he suddenly grabbed her wrist and pulled her in front of him.
She was caught off guard and was almost pulled to the point of falling. She fell into his arms and sat on his lap. At the same time, she accidentally knocked over the lamp at hand, and the lamp oil spilled all over his shoulders.
He seemed not to feel the heat at all. He just got extremely close to her face and stared into her eyes with a sinister look, like a wolf locking onto its prey.
It was rare to see such a scary expression on the cheerful Yan Shijiu's face. Yun Chen was stunned and forgot to struggle free.
"Ah...it's so hot."
It was like dark clouds and lightning rolling in, but suddenly the sky cleared up, Yan Shijiu said this, and then his expression changed, and he patted the lamp oil on his shoulder with a bared mouth.
He opened his clothes and saw that a big blister had appeared on his shoulder.
He had a sad face and said pitifully, "Xiao Yunyun, you took such good care of me. I feel like I could live several years less!"
She had witnessed Yan Shijiu's sudden startle and crying and laughing countless times, and this time was no exception. She pushed his arms away fiercely, patted her pants in disgust, and looked at him sideways.
"I knew you were crazy!"
