Chapter 307 - 309: Shaocheng’s Rage for the Beauty 3_1
Was she needed to stand up for herself this time as well because of those who bullied her?
At this thought, a warm current rushed through her nervously vibrating heart. As arrogant as it was, a sense of sweetness lingered inside her. Thus, she clung on to him even tighter than before, as if embracing him meant embracing the entire world, and henceforth nobody would dare to humiliate and bully her!
Gu Shaocheng, are you truly the divine sent male god meant to protect me?
Her other hand was being carefully wrapped by Doctor Tian. After a few moments, Doctor Tian stood up and said, "Sir, the bandage is done. The scrape on her wrist is not serious, but we need to check to see if there are any other injuries just to be safe."
Gu Shaocheng nodded. The moment he looked down, the surge of rage that painted his face completely disappeared. His eyes were filled with affectionate warmth as they stared at her, his lips pursing gently. He leant towards her ear and asked softly, "Be honest with me, are there any other wounds?"
Chenxing softly shook her head: "No more."
"Are you sure? You’re not allowed to hide anything from me."
In fact, she could faintly feel pain radiating from her leg. However, being tightly held by him, she seemed to be unable to feel that pain, as though he had become her anesthetic. But upon his reminder, Chenxing suddenly remembered. Gathering her courage, she raised her head. Gently lifting her leg and pulling up her cheongsam, she spoke in a small voice, "I think it hurts here too."
Before she had finished speaking, Gu Shaocheng spotted the mark on the outer side of her thigh. His brow furrowed, anger surfacing as he looked at the large reddish rash glinting under the sunlight. Waves of heartache washed over him.
Damnit, "Why didn’t you mention this earlier?"
Even Doctor Tian gasped slightly, because on the outer side of her thigh, there was a glint of glass fragments deeply embedded into the flesh. The fragments were so deeply lodged that the blood had clotted over them. From a distance, they looked like they had merged into her skin, causing hurt to the eyes of the one watching her pain.
"I... I forgot just now."
Chenxing bit her lower lip, lifting her eyelashes slightly to gauge his reaction. With a remorseful expression, and a mist of tears welling in her eyes that did not spill over, she feared to embarrass him by crying publicly.
"How could you forget the pain?" What was she thinking?
Little did he know, in the midst of her chaotic escape from the clutch of a maid, surrounded by a horde of people she could not escape from, and then buried herself in his embrace experiencing the turmoil around her, where could she find time to care about the pain? When she was under his tender care, she was as if under the effect of an anesthetic. Her heart felt only sweetness and she ignored the pain.
Chenxing pursed her lips, naturally she wouldn’t say all that out loud. She just lowered her head, continuing to rest it on his chest.
Doctor Tian had already taken out disinfectant, medical cotton and tweezers from the medicine box.
After examining the depth and position of the glass shard, he raised his head to Chenxing and said, "Miss Chenxing, I need to pull out the glass shard. The process might hurt a bit, please bear with me."
"Hmm," she responded in a voice as small as a mosquito’s hum.
At this moment, she noticed that the arm holding her tightened even further. Gu Shaocheng appeared more nervous than Chenxing. Seeing the powerful man, who usually wouldn’t bat an eyelid even at the sound of gunfire, his pupils sharply contracting, overwhelmed her with emotions!
