Chapter 122 Tenderness
"Xiao Yu, my hand is tired, let's use the medicine instead."
Li Yan rolled halfway through, her arms ached terribly, and she couldn't hold on any longer, so she simply gave up and tried a simpler method.
Gu Tingyu, who had just been immersed in Li Yan's patience and gentleness, was speechless.
The warm atmosphere was destroyed by Li Yan's words.
Li Yan prepared the medicine, and when she looked up, she met Gu Tingyu's gaze, which was slightly speechless and resentful.
She paused, puzzled, and asked, "What kind of look is that?"
Although Li Yan complained about him, she held a cotton swab between two fingers and gently wiped his wound.
The atmosphere of death has been resurrected once again, but unlike the previous warmth, it has a more familiar feel to it.
Gu Tingyu stared blankly at Li Yan, who was now applying medicine to him.
In a daze, he remembered that Xu Rou used to treat him like this often.
"Ah Yu, how did you hurt yourself?"
When Xu Rou returned to the Gu family home, she noticed the injury on Gu Tingyu's hand. She hurriedly put down her things and went to find a first-aid kit.
Gu Tingyu himself didn't seem to care much: "I'm fine."
It's just a minor injury; it'll be fine in a few days.
But Xu Rou didn't think so. After taking out the first-aid kit, she glared at Gu Tingyu with her gentle and docile eyes, her tone dissatisfied.
"Ah Yu! How could you say that?"
"If the wound is not treated in time, it will become infected."
"If the infection were even more severe, you would..."
Every time he got injured, Xu Rou would gently scold him for his faults and then carefully apply medicine to his wounds.
"It's not as serious as you make it out to be."
Although Gu Tingyu said that, he still silently obeyed Xu Rou's words.
His peach blossom eyes gazed tenderly at Xu Rou's every movement and expression, as if he wanted to see right through her.
But ever since Gu Tingyu left the Gu family, Xu Rou's gentleness has vanished.
Even if you run into her at school, she'll ignore you and won't even say hello.
He originally wanted to go up to her, but he noticed Xu Rou's evasive gaze and that she didn't want to pay attention to him.
He felt as if his feet were rooted to the ground, unable to move his feet. Lost and disoriented, he could only watch Xu Rou's departing figure.
"Xiao Yu, be careful lately, and don't touch the wound again."
Li Yan's gentle voice pulled Gu Tingyu back to reality.
His gaze fell upon the bright and beautiful woman in front of him, but she was not the delicate and pretty girl he had in mind.
His mind was filled with irritation, and he gave a few perfunctory replies.
After Li Yan finished eating and drinking, she continued to lie on the sofa and scroll through her phone.
Gu Tingyu didn't say a word, got up, and went back to his room to play games.
Several hours later, Li Yan couldn't resist any longer when she heard the game sounds coming from the room.
She was furious, threw her phone on the sofa, and went to Gu Tingyu's room.
Gu Tingyu was lying in bed playing video games.
The light from the screen shone on his handsome, flawless face. His almond-shaped eyes were fixed on his phone screen, and his long, slender, pale fingers moved rapidly across the screen.
Li Yan was surprised to find that Gu Tingyu, who was already such a grown man, was still addicted to playing video games.
He was so engrossed that he didn't even notice when Li Yan walked in.
Taking advantage of Gu Tingyu's lack of vigilance, Li Yan tiptoed to the bedside, reached out her small hand, and skillfully pinched Gu Tingyu's ear.
"Xiao Yu!"
"How can you be so addicted to games and not work properly?!"
