Gu Liancheng stopped her.
"Let it be, itās just a bruise. I have ointments here, I can apply them myself. Going to the hospital wonāt do any good, a hematoma can only heal on its own."
Her first thought upon seeing his injury was to take him to the hospital.
Indeed, even going to the hospital wouldnāt provide an immediate cure. They could only prescribe a bunch of medicines and let the bruise heal by itself.
"Besides..." Gu Liancheng thought for a moment, "The ambiance was so enjoyable just now, I didnāt want to leave. I wanted to stay for a while longer."
Eleven was about to say that there would be plenty of opportunities in the future, there was no need to worry. But she eventually didnāt say it.
"But you have quite a large bruise, itās not as small as a fingernail. Letās go, Iāll accompany you to the hospital. How about just a drip for a day? We could also visit the Traditional Chinese Medicine doctor and get some blood-activating and stasis-dissolving herbs, just for one day, I can take care of you this day."
She didnāt like to drink Chinese medicine because it was bitter, but anyway, the one drinking wouldnāt be her!
Eleven had a ton of persuading methods in mind, yet to her surprise, Gu Liancheng just smiled and nodded without hesitation after silently gazing at her for a few seconds, "Okay, Iāll let you take care of me for one day."
Eleven was taken aback, his smile seemed like had gained an advantage.
Gu Liancheng wore the shirt from the washstand. It was a bit challenging, and seeing him try to button it with one hand, Eleven stepped forward and said, "Iām here, Iāll do it."
Eleven, being considerably shorter than him, stood in front of him and started buttoning from the top. To do this, she had to look up.
She was looking at the buttons, but at first glance, she unconsciously noticed his tan skin and his collarbone that was pronounced enough to pass the coin test.
She composed herself and continued buttoning.
Gu Lianchengās gaze, however, remained on her.
She was very close to him. Her body exuded a faint fragrance that made him feel extremely comfortable. It was neither overpowering nor too mild.
Her curly hair dispersed, her face gradually leveled as she buttoned down to the middle.
He looked down from above at her occasionally blinking, her lush eyelashes fluttering.
"Have you changed your perfume?"
"Huh?" His sudden question caused Eleven to lose track, she paused before answering, "Yeah, Feiāer gifted me. I donāt know what brand it is, but itās quite fragrant. Light and refreshing, I really like it. Although, I didnāt ask her, Feiāerās gifts are not cheap usually. Why, are you going to pay her back on my behalf?"
It smelled really nice, he liked this scent.
He felt slightly intoxicated smelling this fragrance at that moment.
He didnāt know if he liked this fragrance, or he liked it because it was on her.
"Sure," he replied, "Tell me everything Ye Fei bought for you, Iāll pay her back."
"No need," said Eleven, "I was just saying. How could I let Feiāer accept the money for her presents? She would kill me."
Unless she wanted to ruin their friendship, how could she give money for Feiāerās presents? Feiāer would be so furious that she might bite her!
"I know." He was just saying that as well.
Ye Fei wouldnāt really accept his money, both of them didnāt lack money.
"But... that Shimmer is really expensive. I never expected Feiāer would... if you could help me pay her in advance... Jiujiu said he will pay it back when he grows up..." Eleven was not confident as she said this, after all, it was unknown when Jiujiu would be able to earn that much, "I canāt earn that much in my lifetime..."
"Okay," Gu Liancheng agreed without a momentās hesitation, "I wonāt count the small stuff, I will pay her back the large sum."
