Chapter 48: Chapter 48: Endure
Gu Yan stripped off his clothes.
It was only then that Su Yunjin realized Gu Yan’s physique was extraordinarily good.
The skin covering Gu Yan’s body was a handso wheat color, with wide shoulders and a lean waist, with not an ounce of excess fat. Su Yunjin’s gaze continued downward, only to discover that Gu Yan even had sexy Adonis belt!
Su Yunjin’s eyes shone as she looked at Gu Yan.
Such a fine physique was rare to see even in the modern era.
His little wife was staring at him, but Gu Yan didn’t mind. He removed his robes and undergarnts one by one until only his pants remained.
...
With Gu Yan’s impressive build, Su Yunjin couldn’t help but take a few extra glances. Of course, while admiring Gu Yan’s physique, Su Yunjin did not forget the important matter at hand.
She was primarily there to check Gu Yan’s wounds.
Su Yunjin set her sights on Gu Yan’s back and imdiately spotted the swollen area that was significantly raised. Under the light of the oil lamp, the swollen part of Gu Yan’s back looked red and inflad.
Especially at the shoulder, the swelling looked particularly frightening.
It was even bruised and turning purple!
Seeing the injury on Gu Yan’s back, Su Yunjin couldn’t help but inhale a sharp breath of cool air. If it hadn’t been for Gu Yan blocking that blow for her today, it would have been her, not Gu Yan, who was injured.
“Knock knock knock!” Soon, Mrs. Chu arrived with the dicine, knocking on the door, “Third brother, sister-in-law, the dicine is here.”
Su Yunjin looked toward the door, got up, and walked over to open it for Mrs. Chu, “Younger sister-in-law, co in!” Mrs. Chu passed the ointnt to Su Yunjin and said with a smile, “Sister-in-law, I won’t co in! This ointnt is really effective for reducing swelling and dispersing bruises. You apply it to third brother, and the swelling on his back should subside in no more than a couple of days.”
Su Yunjin looked down at the small ceramic box in Mrs. Chu’s hand, took it, and said, “Younger sister-in-law, I understand, I will apply it to my husband right away!”
“Alright then! Sister-in-law, go and apply the dicine to third brother. I’ll be off to get busy.” After handing over the dicine to Su Yunjin, Mrs. Chu left. Su Yunjin looked at the small ceramic box in her hands, opened it, and saw it contained a black ointnt. Being skilled in dicine, she could tell just by slling it what herbs were used in the ointnt and if it had any anti-inflammatory and swelling-reducing effects.
She brought the box close to her nose and sniffed. She quickly identified herbs such as ephedra, poria, and burdock seed in the ointnt.
All these herbs indeed had the effect of reducing swelling and dispelling bruises.
Knowing the ingredients in the ointnt, Su Yunjin thought to herself that the ointnt her fifth younger brother’s wife, Mrs. Chu, had brought seed quite effective. Applying it to Gu Yan’s back would definitely be beneficial for his injuries.
Su Yunjin, holding the ointnt, returned to where Gu Yan was lying and saw that he had covered the exposed area of his back with his removed clothes.
Gu Yan probably thought Mrs. Chu was coming in, and that’s why he used clothes to cover his upper body. Su Yunjin’s guess was correct; Gu Yan had indeed covered himself with the robes he had taken off because Mrs. Chu was coming to deliver the dicine.
Since Mrs. Chu didn’t co in, Gu Yan saw no need to continue covering up. In front of his little wife, he was willing to show his entire body, let alone just his back.
Before Su Yunjin could speak, she saw Gu Yan already pulling away the clothes that covered his back. Su Yunjin sat down and scooped a bit of the ointnt onto her hand.
The swelling on Gu Yan’s back was alarming. Before applying the ointnt, Su Yunjin whispered into Gu Yan’s ear, “This might be painful, bear with it, I will try to be as gentle as possible.”
