Chapter 912 - Her Guilt

Chapter 912: Her Guilt

“Wait here,” said he softly after putting her down. He then turned around and found the first aid kit from the cabinet.
Fortunately, there was only a light abrasion on her arm. It only needed to be disinfected and cleaned before applying the medicine.
He sat down beside her and carefully cleaned her wound.
Shi Nuannuan slowly came back to her senses as her gaze fell on his arm. His clothes were torn, and the edges were stained with blood.
“You’re injured.”
She knew that she had really messed up just now. Not only had she almost been hit by a car, but she had also caused him to be injured.
She was always like this, acting without thinking. Last time, she had also caused his wound to rupture and he almost lost his life. This time, it was the same.
The guilt she felt might help her grow, even just a little.
One day in the future, she might not be so reckless anymore.
Xiangyi dressed her injury and did not seem to care about his injured arm. Instead, he asked, “Do you feel any pain or discomfort?”
Although they had avoided the car just now, he had still fallen to the ground with her. He basically got injured while protecting her.
She shook her head, still looking sad with lingering traces of the shock from earlier.
“No.”
Hearing her answer, Xiangyi’s heart finally calmed down. Thinking about how he had yelled at her because he was anxious, he could not help but feel even bad.
However, he could not bring himself to apologize out loud. Instead, he just pulled her into his embrace.
“I was so anxious just now that I lost my temper at you.”
Nuannuan knew that he had yelled at her because he was anxious as she leaned into him.
“I know.”
In fact, she had only blamed herself for her own recklessness, not him for yelling.
A moment later, she pushed him away and her gaze fell on his injured arm.
“You’re injured.”
Her usual lively and carefree self had momentarily disappeared, replaced by a more concerned and guilty persona as she looked at his wound.
Xiangyi followed her line of sight and noticed his injured hand before getting up.
“I’m going to change.”
Fortunately, no blood dripped on the floor. Instead, it had all seeped into the clothes. However, judging from the degree of pain from the wound, Xiangyi knew very well that it was not light.
He did not want her to see it, so he got up and took the medical kit and entered the bedroom.
Shi Nuannuan watched as he walked away silently. She still looked guilty and concerned.
After about five minutes, he still had not come out. So she got up and walked towards the bedroom.
She placed her hand on the door handle and gently pushed the door open. She saw Xiangyi taking off his clothes and cleaning the wound.
The dirt and particles from the road must have gotten into the wound due to the friction of the fall so the injury felt quite painful.
When she saw the state of his injury, her heart only felt like breaking even more.
However, she did not show it on her face. Instead, she walked over calmly and knelt down in front of him.
“I’ll help you.”
Xiangyi had already washed and disinfected his wound, and was in the midst of applying medical cream over it when she offered to help.
She had never done such a thing before, but she was extremely careful. Even though the medicine hurt him a lot, he did not say a word and only stared at her thick and curly eyelashes.
The wound somehow became increasingly worse to look at, mainly due to the appearance of the medicine.
