Chapter 283
283 Acting Pitiful
“I’m… fine…” Nangong Jue leaned against Le Yao. “Thank you for coming to see me.”
“Are you really fine?” Le Yao glanced at him. “Then I’m leaving.” She pretended to push him away.
“No.” Nangong Jue hurriedly corrected himself. “My wound hurts.”
Le Yao rolled her eyes. “Lay down. I’ll find Second Young Master Fu.”
“There’s no need. It’s just bleeding. He left some medicine. I’ll be fine after changing it.” Nangong Jue hurriedly shook his head. If he really came back, wouldn’t his act be in vain?
“Where?” Le Yao helped him to the bed and lay down.
“In the box on the table over there. The white bottle.”
Le Yao brought the medicine and gauze over, but she looked at the injured area and felt a little embarrassed. “This… is there another man in the house?”
“Why are you looking for other men?” Nangong Jue frowned.
“You have to put medicine on your butt. I’m a woman. It’s not suitable.”
“You actually want another man to see my butt?” Nangong Jue exclaimed. “Han Binglan, you’re too bad.”
“I-”
“Let me tell you, only my wife can see my butt. No one else can see my butt. I’d rather die than…”
Le Yao: “…”
Had this guy become a drama queen?
“Then where can I find you a wife now?”
“You.” Nangong Jue said righteously, “Apply the medicine for me.”
“We’re divorced. We’re strangers.” Le Yao rolled her eyes.
“We used to be married, too. You can do it until I find a next in line.”
“But I don’t want to.” Le Yao threw the medicine bottle on the bed. “I want to stay chaste for my future husband. Seeing that you won’t die for now, I’ll leave first.”
Nangong Jue was speechless.
He wanted to vomit blood.
“We have an agreement. You can’t refuse when I need you.”
The corners of Le Yao’s mouth twitched, and she stopped in her tracks. “But…”
“But I need you to apply medicine for me now.” A hint of smugness flashed across Nangong Jue’s eyes. “This is not against the law or morals. You can’t refuse.”
“I…” Le Yao felt like ten thousand alpacas were running through her heart.
In the end, Le Yao still gave in to Nangong Jue’s trick. She resigned herself to fate and pulled off the other party’s pants. Then, she roughly tore off the bandage. In the end, Nangong Jue let out a miserable scream. Although he quickly held it in, he still let out the sound.
Le Yao shivered. She wanted to laugh at the other party, but when she saw the wound on his butt, she was so stunned that she couldn’t speak. There were no good spots on his butt. Some places were scabbed over, but most of them were still bloody. It hurts just to look at them.
“I just couldn’t hold it in for a moment.” Nangong Jue felt a little embarrassed. This little injury really wasn’t that painful for him, but in order to make her pity him, he was still pretentious.
“How did you get hurt?” Le Yao lifted his shirt again, but his entire body was almost wrapped into a mummy. Some of the gauze was also bloody.
“Don’t ask.”
“Because of me?”
Nangong Jue fell silent. According to his past personality, he would definitely not take credit. However, in order to woo his wife, he could only be shameless and act pitiful.
“Why?” Le Yao had a faint guess in her heart. She had been buried under the collapsed old brick kiln with a landslide above. How could an ordinary search and rescue team find her so quickly?
