Ling Chuxia’s foot was scratched by fragnts, causing nurous wounds, but those were rely minor skin injuries. The most severe injury was that a piece had pierced straight into the sole of Ling Chuxia’s foot, creating a rather deep wound, which explained why Ling Chuxia was in such pain.
Upon seeing the wound, the doctor furrowed his brows and couldn’t help but say, "This wound is very deep. How did this happen?"
Shi Che didn’t speak, his dark eyes deepening, his expression extrely tense.
Then, the doctor glanced at Shi Che and said, "Co on, help your girlfriend up, and I’ll remove the fragnt."
Shi Che nodded and half sat down beside the bed, gingerly helping Ling Chuxia up so she could lean on him.
The nurse had already treated so of the other wounds on Ling Chuxia, and she had slightly regained her senses. However, now that the doctor was about to remove the fragnt, the mont the tweezers touched it, she shivered violently from the pain, her face turning even paler.
Shi Che clearly felt Ling Chuxia’s trembling, tightened his hold around her, and whispered lowly to the doctor, "Be gentle."
It was unclear whether the doctor didn’t hear or ignored him, but he continued clumsily with the fragnt. Ling Chuxia couldn’t bear the pain and let out a soft cry, cold sweat almost soaking her clothes.
Shi Che’s expression darkened, his dark eyes fixating on the doctor as he spoke with a chilling undertone, "I said, be gentle!"
His voice was low and resonant.
Stunned by Shi Che’s words, the doctor was visibly shaken. Even Ling Chuxia reflexively looked up, though, consud by pain, she couldn’t turn to look at Shi Che.
The doctor glanced at Shi Che, who sat there, his handso face expressionless, radiating a dangerous and threatening aura. His gaze made the doctor’s heart tremble, lightening his touch considerably.
Despite the doctor’s gentler approach, removing the fragnt still caused Ling Chuxia imnse pain. She clenched her lower lip tightly, unknowingly gripping hard until the fragnt was entirely extracted; it felt like she had been brought back from the brink of death.
Not just Ling Chuxia, but even the doctor heaved a huge sigh of relief. The intensity of Shi Che’s stare had kept the doctor sweating, the silence oppressive. Now that it was finally over, he couldn’t help wiping the sweat from his forehead.
Then, the doctor efficiently bandaged Ling Chuxia’s wounds, stood up, glanced at Shi Che, and instead shifted his gaze aningfully toward Ling Chuxia, finding it easier to talk looking at her.
In a low voice, he advised, "The wound is quite deep, you need to take good care of it. It’s best not to walk in the coming days, avoid contact with water, and change the dressings daily. If you really can’t bear the pain, you can take so painkillers, but if you can endure, it is best not to take them."
Ling Chuxia nodded, her voice extrely weak, "I understand, thank you, doctor."
The doctor responded with a ’you’re welco’ and, not daring to look at Shi Che again, quickly slipped out of the examination room as if on greased feet.
Watching the doctor’s retreating figure, Ling Chuxia felt an urge to laugh for so reason, but her foot hurt too much, preventing her from laughing. Her eyes fell, and she inadvertently noticed her hand intertwined with Shi Che’s, realizing she had been gripping it tightly the whole ti.
