She had been so scared that her legs had turned to jelly. With trembling lips, she had said, "I'm sorry."
He had stared at her for a long time, and the emotions in his eyes had fluctuated. She had thought he would get angry, but in the end, he had acted as if nothing had happened. Without saying a word to her, he had called the housekeeper over to clean up. Then he had called the company and asked someone to send another document over.
Later, she had gone back to her room and avoided him for more than three hours. She hadn't been completely relieved until dinner, when she saw that he had no intention of getting even with her.
From then on, she had gradually begun to relax in front of him. She wasn't as anxious as she had been in the beginning.
…
When Gu Yusheng had participated in missions in the army, he had been seriously injured, so he hadn't cared about this knife wound at all.
He wasn't afraid of pain, but later, when the wound had healed, the itch had been unbearable.
Especially on the night that Dr. Luo had come to remove the stitches, the itch had been so bad that he had been scratching his heart and lungs. He had tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep. In the end, he had been so sleepy that he had closed his eyes and scratched his back from time to time.
When Gu Yusheng had entered the master bedroom, Qin Zhi 'ai had already fallen asleep. Although he had been very gentle, he had still woken her up.
With the dim light in the master bedroom, she had stared at him blankly for a while before she realized that he had been scratching his wound. She had immediately reached out and pressed his hand down.
Gu Yusheng hadn't slept well, so he had woken up as soon as she had grabbed his wrist. He had first glanced at his wrist that she had been holding tightly, then he had slowly come back to his senses. He had asked in a somewhat muffled voice, "Did I wake you up?"
"No." Qin Zhi 'ai shook her head. When she was about to let go of his wrist, she found that his fingertips were stained with a few traces of blood. She frowned and hurriedly looked at his shoulder. She found that the area around the wound had turned red from his scratches. Some areas were swollen, and some of the stitches had blood beads on them.
She took out a tissue to wipe the blood beads away, then said softly, "You can't scratch. It will leave a scar, and if you use too much strength, it will affect the healing of the wound."
She thought about it and was still a little worried. She was afraid that he would fall asleep and scratch his back again, so she simply grabbed one of his wrists with each hand.
He didn't struggle.
The room was quiet again. Perhaps because she had woken him up, or because she had held his hand, Qin Zhi 'ai couldn't fall asleep.
With her eyes closed, she could clearly feel Gu Yusheng's body moving from time. She couldn't help but turn her head to look at him.
His brows were furrowed tightly. Perhaps it was because of the unbearable itch, but he was trying his best to endure it. In the end, Qin Zhi 'ai could hear him gritting his teeth and groaning.
Qin Zhi 'ai glanced at the clock on the wall. It was already three o' clock in the morning. Was he tormented by his wound and unable to sleep well last night?
No matter what he had been thinking when he had saved her, he had indeed been injured for her.
Seeing him suffer like this, Qin Zhi 'ai felt a little guilty and sad. She swallowed her saliva and turned her head to look at his profile. After a moment of hesitation, she said softly, "Thank you."
He was shocked by her sudden thank you. He turned his head to look at her in confusion.
Qin Zhi 'ai pointed at the wound on his shoulder and said in a low voice, "Thank you for that day."
