Xiaobai's injury was most worrying to Zhuang Ru, who had not left her house for many days and finally came to the hospital, with tears in her eyes, thinking that Xiaobai was in danger, and temporarily couldn't care about the astonished gazes of others. The doctor and nurse were also startled by her face at first, but after all, they had seen various types of injured people in the hospital, and after a few more glances, they got used to it. Luo Bing arranged for Xiaobai to stay in a single VIP room with a bathroom and an accompanying bed, originally intending to hire a special nurse to take care of Xiaobai, but Zhuang Ru insisted on staying behind. So, Xiaobai stayed in the hospital, still "cohabiting" with Zhuang Ru.
Xiaobai read out Luo Xue's funny text message on the third day of his hospitalization, when he thought the injury to his leg was not a big deal and he could move around with crutches. However, Zhuang Ru still wouldn't let him get out of bed, insisting that external injuries needed to be nursed. When Xiaobai read out the poem scolding himself for being stupid, everyone laughed, including Xiaobai himself. He thought that Luo Xue's mood had probably improved a lot by now, and so he felt relieved.
The days of getting along have been long, and Luo Xue is no longer just the employer he wants to protect. Emotionally, Xiao Bai has already regarded her as a lovely little sister. Sometimes, don't underestimate the young masters of wealthy families. They are not only flowers in the greenhouse, but their experiences and insights since childhood make them more resilient to various events than ordinary people. Luo Xue should be able to grow up even more after this change, right?
The life in the hospital wasn't bad, just taking medicine, changing dressings, eating and sleeping. There was only one annoying thing, which was personal hygiene issues! When going to the toilet, she had to rely on Zhuang Ru's support with a single crutch, and after closing the door, she could barely solve it by herself. However, with bandages wrapped around her legs, she couldn't take a normal bath. After lying in bed for three days, her whole body was itching, and she kept scratching but felt too embarrassed to say anything. Zhuang Ru noticed her thoughts and waited until the nurse finished changing the dressing and there was no one else in the ward before asking: "Xiaobai, are you itchy? I'll help you wipe your body."
"No need, no need, I'll do it myself. I can already walk on the ground now." He got up and prepared to go to the bathroom to wash himself with a basin of warm water.
Zhuang Ru pressed down on him: "Be careful not to strain your wound, you can't bend deeply now, I'll do it."
Xiao Bai's face turned red, and he didn't know what to say. Zhuo Ru glanced at him with a slightly red face and said: "The nurses are all female, and the nursing staff in the hospital are all big mothers and sisters. You can call them to help you wipe your body, but it's better for me to do it... just treat me as a nurse."
"Never mind, I don't want to either..."
Zhuang Ru lowered her head: "A big guy like you is still shy? What's there to be shy about with me? Is there something you have that I haven't seen before?"
His heart racing, he couldn't refute her and simply closed his eyes to let it go. He thought to himself: "Men have nothing special, of course, Sister Zhuang has seen them before... but I've never let another woman see mine!" As he was still thinking, he only heard Zhuang Ru softly say: "Take off your clothes." When he opened his eyes, he saw that Zhuang Ru had already placed a basin of warm water on the stool beside the bed and held a snow-white towel in her hand.
"Ah? Take off your clothes!"
Zhuang Ru: "How can you wipe your body without taking off your clothes?... You're not convenient, I'll do it instead. Just turn over and that's fine."
Zhuang Ru's hands were soft and smooth, gently wiping the small white skin with a semi-wet hot towel. It should be a very comfortable feeling. But Xiao Bai was tense and didn't dare to move, unable to tell whether he was enjoying or enduring it. After more than ten minutes, Zhuang Ru patted his back lightly and said softly, "Relax, don't tense your muscles so tightly! The back is done, turn over, I'll go change the water."
Turn over? It's come to this, so I can only turn over! Xiao Bai's face was already red and burning, not daring to open his eyes, because a certain thing had already lifted its head. Although he repeatedly warned himself in his heart not to... but some reactions were inexplicably uncontrollable. Zhuang Ru didn't speak, still gently and carefully wiping his body, wiping and wiping until finally reaching the base of his thigh. Xiao Bai was so embarrassed that he almost couldn't breathe, because that place not only hadn't relaxed, but had instead become even harder.
Zhuang Ru didn't avoid the "key" area, one hand gently supporting the other as she wiped it clean with a hot towel from top to bottom. Nurses who have taken care of bedridden patients may know that wiping this area is more troublesome, but Zhuang Ru clearly wasn't afraid of trouble. She also gently lifted ***, carefully wiping away any possible residue around ***. Xiao Bai was sweating, he didn't need to look to know that the tip had already swollen to a deep purple, how embarrassing! But to be honest, it's actually more convenient to wipe this way.
Although Zhuo Ru was very careful, with only a small area of contact, Xiao Bai still had an urge to... Fortunately, the wiping didn't last long, and he endured it. Zhuo Ru's hand and towel left that fatal spot. Xiao Bai let out a sigh of relief, but secretly felt that the feeling just now was actually very comfortable, so comfortable that he wanted to moan! ...This thought made him feel ashamed.
Xiaobai opened his eyes and secretly glanced at Zhuo Ru's expression. Zhuo Ru was sitting on the edge of the bed with her body turned to one side, her breathing slightly rapid, and through her tight-fitting cashmere sweater, her full breasts could be seen trembling with each wiping motion. Her face should have been red too, but it wasn't easy to tell because she was sitting on Xiaobai's left side, showing him the terrifying scarred right side of her face. But Xiaobai didn't need to look at her expression; he directly sensed that Zhuo Ru's feelings were almost the same as his own just now. —— Looking at Zhuo Ru's face again, although the scars were still frightening, Xiaobai suddenly felt that they weren't ugly!
Zhuang Ru seemed to feel Xiao Bai stealing glances at her, and her breathing suddenly became uneven. There were also fine beads of sweat on the tip of her nose. She didn't raise her head, but said softly: "Xiao Bai, I have something to say to you."
Bai Shaoliu: "Zhuang Jie, if you have something to say, just say it."
Zhuang Ru: "This job of yours is too dangerous. What if the knife had stabbed a bit further? This time's injury isn't serious, but what about next time?... I was so happy when you found work and helped me find work too... But now I'm worried again, why don't you quit, we can think of other ways... You were helping me at first, but I don't want to drag you into having an accident for my sake."
Zhuang Ru used the word "we", which is a kind of role displacement, or an unconscious shift in substitution. The words just now may only be spoken by close relatives and family members. Xiaobai's heart warmed up, saying: "Sister Zhuang, don't worry about me, what danger? Even walking on the street can get hit by a flower pot! I'm fine."
Zhuang Ru turned her face and glared at him: "You can't say that, being a bodyguard for Miss Luo is very dangerous now, you're not unclear about it in your heart, I didn't think of this before either."
Bai Shaoliu: "When things are going smoothly, it's easy to follow others and show off, but when real danger arises, they don't dare to do anything. What's the point of being a bodyguard then?... Mr. Luo gave me an opportunity when I was in my most difficult situation, now Miss Luo is in her most dangerous situation, how can I just leave? I'm not that kind of person!... Besides, even if I weren't her bodyguard and saw her in danger, I would still help her, let alone it being my duty to protect her.... Zhuang Jie, I know you're looking out for me, but let's not discuss this topic again."
Zhuang Ru: "I'm just discussing with you, I didn't mean to make you do it, if you don't want to listen, I won't say anything. Just be more careful in the future and don't work so hard... Xiaobai, are you this kind to everyone? What I mean is... being so sincere?"
"Is that so? I'm not very clear myself, I just know what should be done."
