Chapter 494 Who Is More Spoiled (2)_1
nσvel.cøm The faint scent of medicinal herbs lingered in her nose. Mo Yan’s nostrils twitched, finding the smell very familiar. Tilting her head in thought, she finally remembered how last year, when she went to the mountains in search of the Red Python and got injured by thorns, he had brought her a jar of ointment in the middle of the night—it was the same scent, wasn’t it?
Speaking of which, that ointment was truly extraordinary. The last time she was hurt, she had applied it twice and was left with only faint red spots. Knowing such an ointment was rare, she saved the remaining half of the jar in the Space for emergencies. The Space had a preserving function, so she wasn’t worried about the medicinal properties evaporating or expiring. This time, since she saw the wound wasn’t particularly serious, she decided to just rinse it with Spirit Spring Water and apply ordinary medicine to heal, even though it would take a bit longer. She didn’t use that jar of ointment.
Xiao Ruiyuan carefully smeared the ointment all over the wound, then found a clean white cloth and carefully wrapped it. He tested the tightness to make sure the bandaging wouldn’t affect the healing of the wound before asking again with a stern face, "What happened?"
Mo Yan stuck out her tongue and honestly recounted the cause of her injury. Then she saw the lingering tenderness and self-blame on Xiao Ruiyuan’s face and was momentarily at a loss.
Having gotten accustomed to his expressionless face and the emotions he rarely displayed, she felt a secret joy seeing such an expression on him now. But she couldn’t bear to let the moment last and reassured him, "This wound is nothing serious, it will heal in a few days, really!"
Xiao Ruiyuan gently held her hand, staring at the back of it without speaking, and she didn’t know if he had taken her words to heart.
Feeling the back of her hand heating up as if it were on fire, Mo Yan, unaccustomed to his intensity, quickly changed the subject, "The trip to the mountain yesterday was quite fruitful. I found a ginseng with quite a few years on it, but I’m not certain how old it is. Sit down, I’ll go get it for you."
