"The hand that was scratched today," said Huo Yanqing as he opened a green box.
Shuxin recognized the box at a glance. It was filled with ointment. Huo Yanqing had given it to her when she had injured her elbow and knee. Song Li had said that it could not only heal the wound quickly, but also beautify the skin and remove scars.
The ointment had indeed worked very well that time, so she had kept it carefully. How did he find it?
Shuxin suddenly recalled that Yao Huiqin had pulled her into the living room to chat, and Huo Yanqing had entered her room. Could it be that he had stayed in her room for so long to look for ointment to treat her wound?
He had actually remembered that she had been injured all this time.
It was not difficult for Shuxin to imagine how difficult it was for a blind person to find a box of ointment in an unfamiliar environment based on his sense of touch and smell.
Her heart felt as if it had been filled with honey. The honey instantly rippled and filled her heart.
It also felt as if a warm current flowed through her heart and instantly spread to her limbs and bones. Her entire body felt warm and cozy.
Shuxin's lips unconsciously curled into a smile. "Fifth Uncle, it's just a small wound. Let me do it myself."
As Shuxin spoke, she reached out to take the ointment from Huo Yanqing's hand. Huo Yanqing frowned slightly. "Are you afraid that I won't be able to treat it well?"
Shuxin detected a hint of depression in Huo Yanqing's words. Was he feeling depressed because he could not see?
Shuxin felt a tinge of heartache. Huo Yanqing had always been so strong that Shuxin sometimes even forgot that he could not see.
Huo Yanqing was such an outstanding and superior person. He was used to having everything in his hands. The thing that he could not stand the most was being treated as a vulnerable person by others.
Therefore, not all concern was necessarily good. Sometimes, it could even hurt someone.
Shuxin obediently handed her hand over. "The wound is about five centimeters below my elbow."
"Okay." Huo Yanqing responded softly. He placed Shuxin's hand on his lap and dipped a cotton swab in the ointment. His large hand gently touched the wound and the cotton swab followed his long fingers to apply the ointment bit by bit.
Shuxin's gaze landed on the man's handsome face. His thin lips were slightly pursed and he looked unusually serious, as if he was doing something very important.
Shuxin's heart was beating very quickly. Shuxin knew that this was a sign of affection.
During the time she spent with Huo Yanqing, he took care of her and showed her affection from time to time. Even when he spoke to her affectionately, Shuxin felt that Huo Yanqing liked her.
However, she had suffered such a fatal betrayal from Xiao Ruize in her previous life that she did not dare to give her feelings easily. On top of that, there was a huge gap between her and Huo Yanqing. Huo Yanqing had never said that he liked her. Therefore, even though she felt that Huo Yanqing liked her, she did not dare to approach him.
"Did you hear what my mother said?" The man's deep voice pulled Shuxin back to reality. Shuxin instantly became nervous and hurriedly denied it. "No."
Huo Yanqing's lips curved slightly. His hearing was very sensitive and he heard Shuxin's footsteps as soon as she came out of the bathroom.
Huo Yanqing did not expose Shuxin's lie. Instead, he pursed his lips and continued to treat her wound.
After the wound was treated, Huo Yanqing placed the ointment on the bedside table. "Apply it again tomorrow and you will be fully healed."
"Okay. Thank you, Fifth Uncle."
