When she got back to the hospital room, Jiang Yao stitched up Lu Xingzhi's wound and applied the medicine she had taken from the system. When she came out of the bathroom after washing her hands, Lu Xingzhi was calling Huo Xiang to ask him and Luo Ruoran to go home first and not come to the hospital.
After he hung up, Lu Xingzhi saw Jiang Yao standing in the bathroom looking at him from afar. He waved at Jiang Yao and said, "Come here."
Jiang Yao obeyed and walked over. She tucked him in and wiped his face. "Don't be like this again. I was scared to death when I saw your pale face. I was chasing after a robber, and you were injured. Why did you stupidly chase after him? What are you trying to show off for? Even if you thought I couldn't catch up with him, aren't the police involved? "
The moment she finished speaking, the room fell into silence. The silence was so oppressive that even his gaze on her was as oppressive.
"So you're aware that the police are involved?" Lu Xingzhi's voice was as cold as ice. "Don't you understand that I was chasing after you, not the robber?"
He held Jiang Yao's hand, which was holding the towel. He gripped her fingers so tightly that the veins on the back of his hand could be seen. "Just like you said, what am I trying to show off for? I'm injured. Why would I chase after a robber who didn't threaten anyone's life and was only after money? "
He had been suppressing his anger the whole way. He had even listened to Jiang Yao nag him the whole way back when she realized that she hadn't done anything wrong.
Until now, she still didn't know who was in the wrong between the two of them.
"Jiang Yao, you're really something," Lu Xingzhi scoffed as he flung Jiang Yao's hand away. His gaze was oppressive as he glared at Jiang Yao.
Jiang Yao froze for a full ten seconds. She could feel that Lu Xingzhi was angry.
This time, he was truly enraged.
She finally realized that the reason he chased after her despite his injuries was because he was worried about her, and not because he was chasing after the robbers like she had thought.
Therefore, she was the one who had caused his wound to rupture. It had nothing to do with outsiders.
Guilt instantly engulfed her entire heart.
"Xingzhi, I'm sorry." Jiang Yao really realized that she was wrong. Just now in the park, she really shouldn't have been impulsive. She rushed out without a word of explanation, and then let him chase her because he was worried about her.
Jiang Yao reached out and gently hooked Lu Xingzhi's hand. Seeing that he didn't shake her off, she slid her hand in and held his hand. "I was wrong. I swear, there won't be a next time. Absolutely not!"
"You know you're wrong? Where did you go wrong? " Lu Xingzhi glanced at her. When he saw the guilt on her face, a sense of helplessness rose in his heart.
She had more secrets than he had thought, and it shocked him even more.
She had climbed over the wall, and her nimble skills were no less inferior to his.
However, he had graduated from a military academy and was a professional soldier. He had never missed a single day of his training.
But what about her? She was just a girl who studied obediently by her parents' side. Before she went to university, she had never even left the city. Where did her skills come from?
"I was wrong, I was wrong! I was really wrong. " Jiang Yao nodded repeatedly. "I shouldn't have done things impulsively. I shouldn't have chased after the robbers as soon as I saw them. I shouldn't have worried you."
