Chapter 960: Only I Can Guard It (7)
"I know this, I’ve already made it clear to her, I told her not to come near Jiaojiao anymore." But whether the other party will listen or not, that’s another question. Besides, I heard she’s been sick these past few days. I also had someone send her a gift a few days ago, considering it as closing this Chapter of fate that shouldn’t have happened."
Xiu Xi nodded his head and went back to Ruan Jiaojiao’s room to continue watch over her.
The injury on Ruan Jiaojiao’s hand required daily application of medicine. Initially, this task was meant for Shu Jiao, who had the gentlest touch, but with Xiu Xi’s return, it naturally fell upon him.
While applying the medicine, Ruan Jiaojiao sat on the sofa watching TV, and Little Fatty squatted beside her holding the medicine, making it convenient for Xiu Xi to apply it.
From the moment the bandage was unwrapped, Xiu Xi’s expression turned particularly ugly, and Little Fatty even held his breath subconsciously, afraid of making Xiu Xi look even more upset.
However, no matter how ugly Xiu Xi’s face became, his hands were exceedingly gentle, treating Ruan Jiaojiao’s small hand as though it were a rare and precious treasure.
The other young men beside them didn’t dare move a muscle during Ruan Jiaojiao’s treatment.
Because they always felt that their slightest movement, the mere flow of air, could cause pain for Ruan Jiaojiao.
For the Ruan Family, the process of applying medicine was a torment. After Xiu Xi finished, Ruan Jiaojiao looked at her hand, now wrapped up like a zongzi (rice dumpling), and wanted to say that it didn’t need to be wrapped like this, but when she met Xiu Xi’s gaze, she instinctively swallowed her words. Instead, she flattered him with a smile: "Brother Xiu Xi did a beautiful job wrapping it."
"Yeah, yeah, it looks much better than what Yuan Xiaodong’s grandfather does." Little Fatty added his own flattery.
"..." Xiu Xi gave him a glance, and Little Fatty immediately shrank his neck and walked away with the medicine.
