Chapter 268: 247: Can you help me apply the medicine?
"Alright, alright, I won’t do it again." Wen Renche lovingly ruffled her hair, the tear mole hidden beneath his golden-framed glasses seemed to sway with bursts of joy.
Yu Zhi turned her head away, avoiding his touch, and a trace of inexplicable resentment appeared in her eyes: "Don’t you know that touching my head might stunt my growth?"
She now had reason to suspect that her height remained at 165 because of being patted on the head.
Wen Renche was quite fine, especially...
Upon thinking about that man who broke his promise, a fleeting shadow passed through Yu Zhi’s eyes.
"Nonsense." Wen Renche playfully tapped her slightly puffed-up cheek, his voice like the gentle breeze of early spring: "It’s cold outside, let’s sit in the car."
"Mm, let’s look for a pharmacy nearby first."
"Are you feeling unwell?"
Yu Zhi shook her head: "I need to tend to your wound."
Facing the light, the dots of starlight cast by the streetlamp fell into her eyes, resembling an entire Galaxy, making one deeply engrossed.
Wen Renche gazed into those eyes, intense emotions fleetingly flashed by, thankful for the glasses that concealed them, never caught by her.
He gently stroked the fingertips that her lips had brushed against earlier, his heartbeat inexplicably quickened a bit.
It was as if his chest was painfully shaken.
"Ah-Che, what are you thinking?" Yu Zhi stood up and noticed he was still sitting there unmoving, inevitably feeling a bit puzzled.
"Nothing, let’s go." Wen Renche steadied his mind, trying to maintain a natural state.
He opened the car’s passenger door, wrapped her tightly in a blanket again, then walked around to the other side.
Many pharmacies in the Imperial City operate overnight.
After driving just a block, they spotted a conspicuous ’pharmacy’ sign.
Wen Renche was about to unbuckle his seatbelt when he heard the sound of a door opening, and before he could react, the girl had already stepped out.
He glanced outside through the car window, feeling for the first time a desire to bask in the care and tenderness she brought.
Thus, he didn’t follow.
In just a short while, the girl returned with a small plastic bag, jogging back towards him.
The first thing she did after sitting down was to turn on the car’s interior light and took out cotton swabs and medicinal liquor from the bag.
"Ah-Shi, can you help me apply it?"
The male voice at her ear, intoxicating like fine wine, involuntarily halted Yu Zhi’s movement of handing things over.
She looked up at Wen Renche, hesitated for a moment.
Ultimately, she unscrewed the medicinal liquor bottle cap, dipping a cotton swab into the dark brown liquid.
"Come closer." Yu Zhi half-lifted her hand.
When he obediently leaned forward, she attentively applied the medicine for him.
There was not a trace of ambiguous emotion in her eyes, only care that came from a Yu Family Member.
But Wen Renche was different.
He lowered his gaze, his line of sight traversing her slightly trembling long lashes, landing on those lips like cherry blossoms.
An indescribable impulse unknowingly rose from his heart, expanding more and more in his mind.
He rolled his Adam’s apple, his amber phoenix eyes deepened, unable to hide his possessive desire.
The atmosphere gradually became romantic; if only he lowered his head, he could kiss those lips appearing countless times in his dreams.
Wen Renche couldn’t resist such temptation, he tentatively moved, unexpectedly, the girl turned her head away abruptly.
The sound of the plastic bag rustled again.
Wen Renche blushed at the ears, exhaling a breath of frustration, that impulse also suppressed.
