Chapter 247 - 246 The Changed Bai Zhiqing
"Honey, do you think I’m stupid? Getting injured on purpose just to trick you? The thing that hit my shoulder was deadly, not rubber. I could have lost my arm if things were slightly worse. I wouldn’t lose an arm just to deceive you, and I’m certainly not turning into Yang Guo, meeting Little Dragon Girl after sixteen years,"
Lu Tianxing chuckled bitterly, sighed in self-pity with a desolate tone, as if he had been abandoned, "Ah, honey, if you don’t want to, then forget it. I’m strong and healthy, I’ll be fine; you don’t need to bother about me. I’ll handle the rest. At most, the wound might get infected from being exposed to water, no big deal."
"Lu Tianxing, what do you mean by that? Are you suggesting that I, Bai Zhiqing, am an ungrateful wretch? Hmph, come with me, I am not afraid of you."
Those words from Lu Tianxing really annoyed Bai Zhiqing, making her feel like an ungrateful wolf that wouldn’t recognize kindness. She gritted her teeth and stomped her foot in agreement immediately.
Moreover, Lu Tianxing had saved her life twice, helping him was no big deal, and indeed, Lu Tianxing wasn’t in a condition to do things himself since an infection was not a minor issue. Still, Bai Zhiqing felt a rush of shyness. The bastard dared to make demands; once he recovered, it seemed necessary to teach him a lesson.
"It’s nothing, Bai Zhiqing, what are you afraid of? Just pretend it’s like bathing a pet as usual."
Bai Zhiqing mentally cheered herself on, trailing behind Lu Tianxing like a timid bride just lifted onto the bridal sedan, head lowered, her face flushed with embarrassment.
At that moment, Bai Zhiqing hadn’t realized that she was gradually losing her former iciness, unconsciously accepting Lu Tianxing’s presence, and though occasionally flustered and annoyed, she was no longer as explosive as before.
"Honey, what are you still dithering there for? Hurry over."
Lu Tianxing, having walked a few steps ahead, noticed Bai Zhiqing still standing there and promptly urged her.
"What are you yelling for? I know how to walk, no need for you to nag. Besides, you’re a man; why are you nagging more than a woman?" Bai Zhiqing said with feigned calmness, but her stuttering voice betrayed her unsettled heart.
"Honey, then hurry up! Are you planning on having me stand here all night?" Lu Tianxing saw that Bai Zhiqing was still stationary and urged her again.
