Chapter 96. Warmth?
Ye Zhiyun stood with her arms crossed over her chest, leaning against the wall outside the classroom, in a very bad mood, listening to the sounds from inside.
She clicked her tongue and sighed from time to time.
Yun’er was very unhappy!
However… even if she was unhappy, she had to respect her sister’s decision.
And clearly, sister’s approach was the correct one.
Actually, if they wanted to help treat the wound, Ye Zhiyun could have easily called the medical maid team over.
But sister said —— it’s possible, but unnecessary.
Simple wound treatment, sister said she learned in her dream and wanted to practice, even eager to try.
With things said to this point, what could Yun’er argue against!
Moreover… Lin Zihan was injured because of her own kick, so she had even less justification.
Even so… even so!
But it really was frustrating!
Sister has never treated my wounds before!
Guang Yu imitated her, this unworthy fox loli also crossed her arms over her chest, leaning against the wall next to Ye Zhiyun, making the same pose as her.
Melancholy, right? I can do that too!
This pose is pretty cool!
The fun-loving fox, never absent.
Inside the classroom.
Ye Zhibai gestured with her eyes for Lin Zihan to sit in a nearby chair.
Besides the band-aids, she also brought a red plastic bag containing iodine and cotton balls.
Fortunately there was an open pharmacy in the school, making it quite convenient to buy these things.
Ye Zhibai opened the plastic bag, took out a cotton ball, and knelt on one knee in front of Lin Zihan who had sat down in confusion.
“Give me your hand.”
“Wu… Xiao Bai’er, why…”
“Give me your hand.”
“Oh… okay.”
Gently cradling her delicate palm, Ye Zhibai examined the wound on her thumb from side to side.
Ye Zhibai’s delicate fingers, unconsciously gentle movements, occasionally brushing Lin Zihan’s palm, made the girl’s heart tickle.
“Xiao Bai’er? It’s… it’s fine, this little wound, I often get cut by kitchen knives when cooking, it’ll be fine soon.”
“Knife cuts are different from rust injuries, yours was cut on an iron desk edge, if it’s deep, it could get infected.”
Tetanus warning!
“Eh… is that so? No, how is Xiao Bai’er so knowledgeable?!”
“Learned it in a dream.”
“……”
Can you wholesale these dreams?
Give me a stack too.
Even though she hadn’t figured out what the current situation was at all, and her palm was being freely examined by Ye Zhibai, Lin Zihan surprisingly didn’t resist.
But in her eyes… there was still a hint of confusion and wariness.
Is Xiao Bai’er caring about me?
Or… pitying me?
It’s hard to say.
When Ye Zhibai was about to leave earlier, she happened to glimpse the crimson blood on her finger, and immediately panicked.
As a medical student in her past life, although only in her sophomore year and only having studied the theoretical stage, she was still very sensitive to this kind of bloodstain!
Thinking about wanting to help others —— there was indeed this factor.
But more importantly
Wuwu, if she really gets tetanus, how will we deal with her extorting us!
Medical fees aren’t cheap, enough to feed Guang Yu for a month!
Thinking of this, Ye Zhibai became much more serious and careful when examining the wound.
Lin Zihan lowered her head, looking at Xiao Bai’er’s face illuminated by the sun’s last rays before the sunset faded away.
For a moment she was dazed.
Under the silver bangs, those light purple eyes seemed to have magical power, like violets in bloom, mesmerizing and fascinating.
Her unwavering expression and posture, though clearly keeping people at a distance, somehow created an inexplicable urge to rely on her.
After finishing the examination, Ye Zhibai unscrewed the iodine bottle, used the provided small clip to pick up a cotton ball, and dabbed some iodine on it.
“It’s fine… the wound isn’t deep, just disinfecting it will do, it will sting a bit, bear with it.”
“Mm, it’s fine, I’m saying, Xiao… sss, it doesn’t hurt, it doesn’t hurt! Phew…”
“……”
What’s this
This young lady of the Lin family, looking so strong and fearless.
Maybe she’s quite afraid of pain?
Iodine touching the wound doesn’t really hurt, at most it’s just a bit uncomfortable, alcohol is what really stings!
But even though it was just iodine, Lin Zihan fearfully closed her eyes tightly, her body suddenly shrinking, feet tensing up, constantly muttering it doesn’t hurt, and only after a long while did she dare to slowly open her squinting eyes.
“Xiao Bai’er… is it over?”
“Mm, it’s done.”
“I told you it doesn’t hurt!”
Now you’ve got courage again!
Ye Zhibai threw the used cotton ball into another small bag she had brought, to be thrown away when leaving later. She closed the iodine cap and put it away, this iodine and cotton balls could be used again in the future.
Lin Zihan’s gaze followed Ye Zhibai’s not-so-busy figure as she moved.
In her daze, she felt like what she was seeing wasn’t human
Ahem, not meaning to insult!
She meant, she seemed to be seeing a silver-haired little angel.
Lin Zihan closed her legs tightly, arms hugging her front, leaning against the wall humming a little tune.
Somehow feeling that the sunset light was a bit warm.
It felt… like it had been a long time since she’d basked in the sun like this.
Ye Zhibai’s cold voice.
Suddenly cooled this gentleness!
“Hey, don’t wipe off the iodine, I just put it on for you.”
“Okay!”
Lin Zihan quickly moved her thumb away from almost touching her clothes.
Close call… almost got immersed in it?
Strange
Ye Zhibai walked back slowly.
Opening the band-aid box, she held it out in front of Lin Zihan.
“Band-aids, here.”
“Hm?”
Why do you seem not very quick-witted!
“Band-aids, can you put it on yourself, I need to go.”
After a moment of silence.
Lin Zihan’s crimson eyes turned, raising one finger.
That smile actually had a somewhat coquettish meaning.
Or rather, the coquettish tone in her voice was quite full.
“Ai ya ya… Like this, I’m afraid I can’t put on the band-aid well, want Xiao Bai’er to help me put it on~~ Okay?”
These words, no need to wait for Ye Zhibai’s response.
Ye Zhiyun’s echoing voice immediately resounded from the corridor!!
“Lin! Don’t you dare push your luck! If you want more bruises just say so!”
“……”
Lin Zihan shuddered in fright.
So did Ye Zhibai!
Taking the band-aid box from Ye Zhibai’s hand
Uh, can’t take it?
Ye Zhibai was gripping the box tightly.
Her gaze still so cold.
“Didn’t say they’re all for you… just take one, isn’t that enough?”
“Pff… Hahahaha!!”
What are you suddenly laughing about!
Take a band-aid! I’m in a hurry to go home and sleep!
This time, Lin Zihan laughed so hard a tear formed at the corner of her eye.
Only then did she catch her uneven breath and tear off a piece from the band-aid box.
She clumsily wrapped the band-aid around her thumb, raising her finger and looking at it as she turned it in circles.
As happy as if she had wrapped some treasure!
She used the back of her hand to wipe away the tear of laughter from the corner of her eye.
“Thank you, Xiao Bai’er… You really are… too gentle, haha…!”
Goodness, the world really is fickle.
I’m being so stingy, yet she’s still thanking me!
Lin Zihan knew.
Xiao Bai’er must have deliberately let her take only one piece, right?
To protect my worthless dignity.
She was making it clear that this wasn’t charity, wouldn’t give more, just this one piece.
Such gentleness and perspective… how could Lin Zihan not express gratitude?
This Xiao Bai’er is really despicable
Even to the point that some words, whether sincere or not, were said as she stood up.
“I’m really a bit envious of Zhiyun… having such an angel by her side, must be very happy.”
—— Ahem!
This was the sound of Ye Zhiyun clearing her throat from outside the corridor, indicating approval!
These words of yours are still pleasing to hear!
With the wound treated, Ye Zhibai tied up her little red plastic bag of medical supplies, preparing to turn and leave.
“I’m going.”
“Eh Xiao Bai’er wait! Wait a moment, you left something behind!”
“Hm?”
Lin Zihan quickly searched her pockets, looking somewhat anxious.
She wanted to find the vine ring she had given to Xiao Bai’er earlier.
She couldn’t give it earlier, if she doesn’t give it this time, there really won’t be another chance.
But after rummaging around.
She suddenly remembered.
Ah
I threw it away…
