Chapter 254 But I’m Not
- Lu Yao helped Xiang Dongnan until they reached the neighborhood across from this one. “Wait here for a second. I’ll get some ointment for treating wounds for you. You should check the injury yourself when you get back. If it’s serious, do go to the hospital.” After helping him sit down on the ground floor, she was going to leave after telling him to wait.
- Clutching his stomach, Xiang Dongnan took a sharp gasp. His usual warm demeanor was swept away by the blood on his body and face. When he smiled, a devilish charm appeared on his handsome features. “They’re just minor injuries and I have some ointments for them at home, so let’s go back.” After that, he half-joked, “Can you clean me up? You look like you’ve seen a ghost every time you look at me. That’s a bit frightening to me, actually.”
- After being surprised, Lu Yao smiled bitterly. “Looks like you didn’t get hurt that bad, since you still can joke around.” Then, her smile faded, which was replaced by a stern expression. With her gaze shifted down, she apologized by saying, “You got beaten up even when all you did was just trying to take the ingredients up. Sorry about that.”
