Chapter 1203: Meet You Again When Flowers Fall (2)
Take a moment to look at the person who is crying out in pain.
Du Ruoheng only arched her brows for a moment before immediately retracting her expression and scolding softly, "Shut up!"
Huo Xiaoye turned his head slightly and saw Du Ruoheng kneeling beside him, with her eyelashes drooping, wiping his wound with a gentle expression.
Her already graceful figure cast a shadow under the candlelight, and my heart felt hot - or maybe it was just an illusion that my body was hot!
Feeling the other party's silence, Fang realized that he seemed a little too fierce just now, so Du Ruoheng found an excuse to talk: "This time we used a new recipe of wound medicine. Because the ratio of white jelly and blood clotting was increased, the effect is very good, but it is also a bit too strong, so it may hurt more."
At this time, beads of sweat had already seeped out of Huo Xiaoye's forehead, which proved that the medicine was indeed as Du Ruoheng said.
Meeting Du Ruoheng's eyes, even though the wound hurt so much, Huo Xiaoye still wanted her not to worry too much, so he forced a smile: "It doesn't seem to hurt now. After all, it's the medicine prepared by Sister Fairy, and..."
"If you keep talking, I'll use the thickest needle on you." Du Ruoheng interrupted him.
It takes time to soak the mulberry bark thread in the liquid medicine, so other wounds are treated first.
Now, the few small wounds on the side have just been treated with medicine, but the core area is too deep and must be sutured with a needle before it can be treated with medicine and bandaged.
Du Ruoheng had already threaded the mulberry bark thread through the silver needle in her hand.
After all, she was a person with superb medical skills. Her suturing movements were fast and steady. The moment the needle tip pierced the skin and flesh, Huo Xiaoye's muscles were visibly tensed.
The only sound in the room now was the gentle crackling of the candlelight.
During the process of suturing the wound, Du Ruoheng's fingertips would occasionally brush against Huo Xiaoye's skin. Because her hands had been smeared with disinfectant before the operation, they were slightly cool.
It was this coolness that gave Huo Xiaoye the motivation to endure the pain of surgery.
The mulberry bark thread shuttled across the wound, gradually interweaving into fine lines.
Although the wound was deep, it was not too long, so the operation was over in less than a quarter of an hour.
After applying the medicine and bandaging Huo Xiaoye, Du Ruoheng started chatting with him casually: "What are you going to do this time?"
Seeing Huo Xiaoye pursed his lips and remained silent, Du Ruoheng suddenly remembered that there were some things that the other party might not be able to disclose, so she added, "It doesn't matter if you can't tell me, I'm just asking casually."
"It's not that it's hard to explain, I just don't know where to start!" Huo Xiaoye was silent for a moment before saying, "To be honest, the people who hurt me this time are the same people who hurt me two years ago. It's just that this time I caught them all in one fell swoop and didn't let any of them escape."
"No, these are two different groups of people!" Du Ruoheng frowned slightly and expressed his opinion, "From your wound, it can be seen that they used different weapons, and the wounds were also in different places.
Last time, those people liked to chop their opponents' feet, but this time you were injured in the shoulder, and if you hadn't dodged in time, the injury would have been on the neck.
Judging from your legs, they want to incapacitate you, so they probably want to capture you alive. This time, they probably want your life, so..."
After listening to Du Ruoheng's analysis, Huo Xiaoye nodded: "Then I will arrange for someone to check it out."
While talking, there was a knock on the door.
It was Hongdou who brought the medicine. She was used to seeing extra people in her lady's room. After all, it had happened more than a dozen times in the past two years.
"Drink the medicine!" Du Ruoheng helped Huo Xiaoye up and let him lean against the headboard. "It won't need to be said that it can restore your vitality. The key is that it can relieve pain and help you sleep. You are too tired. Get a good sleep!"
"Okay!" Huo Xiaoye, who has always been very cautious about what he eats, will only completely let down his guard in front of Du Ruoheng.
The bowl in my hand was empty in an instant.
"It's so hard!" Huo Xiaoye mastered the little tricks of "getting favor" that he learned occasionally.
Hongdou saw this and turned her back, curling her lips in disdain. ——You can't be disrespectful to his face, Master Huo has a strong desire for revenge.
Being five years older than Huo Xiaoye, Du Ruoheng couldn't help but feel soft-hearted towards him. She immediately took out a small piece of osmanthus candy from the bedside drawer and stuffed it into his mouth.
While eating the candy and seeing the word "Yongzhou" engraved on the box containing the osmanthus candy, Huo Xiaoye's mouth corners unconsciously curled up - this was one of the supplies he sent a few days ago.
The fact that Du Ruoheng placed it at the bedside shows that she likes it.
When handing her the empty medicine bowl, Huo Xiaoye held her wrist with his uninjured hand, his palm burning hot.
"Let go!" Du Ruoheng pulled her hand back several times but failed to break free from Huo Xiaoye. When she was about to increase her strength and try again, the man relaxed his grip. He just stopped holding her wrist and grabbed her palm instead, and even deliberately scratched Du Ruoheng's palm.
Du Ruoheng was startled and immediately turned around to look at Hongdou behind her. When she found that the maid was far away from them and her eyes were looking elsewhere, she breathed a sigh of relief, but still glared at the culprit.
