Unable to give Qi Ming a complete family, at least make his childhood as pure and innocent as other children.
Lu Huai’an grasped the woman’s hand, his gaze fell on the obvious red marks, as if a slight pain choked in his throat, mixed with blood.
But all he said were the simple four words, "Let apply the dicine."
The ointnt he brought was placed on the nightstand.
The cool mint scent spread to her senses, and soon after, the nerves on her wrist felt a cooling sensation.
Lin Chu expressionlessly withdrew her hand, a simple rejection, her light voice devoid of waves.
"Lu Huai’an, stop doing things that disgust ."
It was him who tied the hand, the injury was caused by him.
Coming to apply dicine afterwards, doesn’t he find it ridiculous?
Lu Huai’an raised his gaze, the complex emotions in his eyes had faded, replaced by a deep darkness.
He grabbed the woman’s hand again, stating without haste, "If you want to sleep early, be well-behaved, Xiao Chu, you know my temper, even if I break this arm of yours, the dicine still has to be applied."
Lin Chu carelessly let out a light laugh, "Then break it, even if it’s broken, I won’t cooperate."
When people with similar temperants are together, one must temper their disposition to make things simpler.
In the past, the person who was humble to the dust was Lin Chu, the one who wore down all the edges to get closer, also Lin Chu.
And now, both were equally sharp.
Lu Huai’an stared at the woman’s light, indifferent face, his brows slightly furrowed.
He didn’t speak further.
He threw down the ointnt tube he was holding, then pulled the woman leaning against the head of the bed into his arms, and before she could react, he deftly confined her body within a small space.
Lin Chu’s back was tightly pressed to the man’s chest, the strong sll of alcohol rushed into her nose, mixed with crisp mint, ssing with her nerves.
"Lu Huai’an, let go!"
The suppressed voice was filled with anger, clearly agitated to the extre.
Lu Huai’an’s stern features remained calm, the strength in his hands did not relent, he said lightly, "If you don’t want to maintain this position, then stop moving, I have all the ti to keep you company."
Lin Chu naturally knew Lu Huai’an wasn’t joking, if he said it, he’d certainly do it.
Her entire body was almost trapped in the man’s embrace, very close, through the thin sumr pajamas, she could clearly feel his body heat.
The air was filled with a combative tension, but from a third-party perspective, there was more ambiguity.
Lin Chu’s struggles halted, she didn’t want to say another word, her gaze cool and void of warmth.
Noticing the change in the woman’s attitude, Lu Huai’an relaxed the force bound on her waist.
He picked up the ointnt from the table again, squeezed so onto his fingertip, and applied it to her wrist where the marks were.
The depth of the scars indicated how much she despised and resisted at that ti.
Silence, the room returned to quiet, only Lin Chu’s unsteady breathing could be heard.
Without Lin Chu’s restless struggle, such a simple task as applying dicine only took half a minute, but Lu Huai’an took five.
From the left hand to the right, the force was light and slow.
Seemingly reaching her limit, Lin Chu pushed his hand away, escaping from his embrace, her voice cold, "The dicine is applied, you can leave and close the door."
As she spoke, she lifted the thin blanket, turned onto her side on the bed, her back to him.
Clearly, she no longer wished to speak with him.
Lu Huai’an’s sole purpose in coming in was to apply the dicine; on her first day back, she wouldn’t agree to sleep together even if she died.
Lu Huai’an understood this well.
He sat by the bed, his deep gaze falling on the woman’s slender figure, carrying a complex emotion unfathomable to others.
Except for himself, no one would understand.
After a long ti.
Lu Huai’an adjusted the air conditioner’s wind speed, reduced it a bit, then turned off the light and left the bedroom.
Lin Chu, with her eyes closed, couldn’t see, but in the quiet space, the slightest sounds were amplified.
She could clearly feel the eyes lingering on her back, and his footsteps...
Only when the bedroom door closed was the space she was in truly restored to peace.
In the darkness, Lin Chu slowly opened her eyes.
The whole room was dark.
The air still seed to carry his scent, swirling around her nostrils, disturbing her sleep.
