The Spoilt Wife’s Happy Life with the Commander - Chapter 33
Chapter 33 Cleaning the Wound
Darkness came over Lin Qing’s eyes. When she regained consciousness, she found herself lying on the ground. She clearly remembered the cause. The person behind her probably got impatient since the movie was about to start. She hurried to the seat and accidentally bumped into Lin Qing, who was walking slowly.
Lin Qing didn’t mind the steps under her feet and fell over onto the ground soundly.
“Lin Qing!” She heard a low and worried voice overhead. He was no longer as calm as usual.
Mu Li was half-crouching beside Lin Qing. But the video hall was so dark that he could barely see what had happened exactly.
Lin Qing responded to him in a low voice.
The woman who bumped into Lin Qing felt so sorry that she kept apologizing for her carelessness. The situation here attracted the attention of other seated audience.
“I’m fine… you don’t need to keep apologizing,” Lin Qing said.
The woman stopped apologizing when she heard Lin Qing’s words. And it was probably because Lin Qing was blocking the way that the woman didn’t leave either.
“Are you injured?” Mu Li held her and asked.
Lin Qing only felt her calf hurt a little, apart from that, she was fine.
So she shook her head and reassured Mu Li, “I don’t think so.”
So Mu Li helped her to her feet.
He looked down at the ground and saw the popcorn was all over the ground.
“How could you be so careless? How could you be stumbled by such a small step.” Mu Li asked in a low voice. He looked a bit pale.
Lin Qing felt being wronged, “I… am a little afraid of the darkness.”
Her lowering head made her much more adorable.
Mu Li had long adapted to the darkness long ago because of his work, but he neglected Lin Qing’s condition.
If he had known it, he would have…
Mu Li still frowned and tried to say more. The big screen in the distance flickered and the movie began.
“The movie is about to start.” Lin Qing reminded him with a low voice.
Mu Li glared at her, then took her up in his arms and strode out of the video hall.
When they arrived at the exit passageway, Lin Qing understood Mu Li’s intention. She stretched out her small hands and pointed at the big screen behind Mu Li.
“Ah, hey… the movie!” She was very anxious and disappointed.
Under such circumstances, she still wanted to watch the movie?
Mu Li got a little bit angry.
However, it seemed that Lin Qing didn’t intend to give up. Her arms swayed back and forth. It was rare to see her being such stubborn.
Because of her restlessness, Mu Li deliberately loosened his grasp over Lin Qing. Lin Qing thought that she was going to fall down onto the ground. So she withheld her hands and held his neck instantly.
Damn it… She did exactly what he wanted her to.
As a result, Lin Qing remained the original posture and hid in Mu Li’s arms obediently.
Although it was still dark now, Lin Qing suddenly ceased to feel scared anymore.
When they walked out of the video hall, Lin Qing found that she was clinging to Mu Li tightly.
Actually, she was not the one to be blamed. Mu Li hugged her too tightly.
“Mu Li?” Lin Qing turned her head slightly and spoke near Mu Li’s ear.
“Huh?” Mu Li looked down at her, and his eyes met hers.
“You’re hugging me too tightly,” Lin Qing whispered, “I’m a little dizzy.”
Mu Li watched her and smiled—
He hugged her tighter.
Lin Qing regretted telling him about it. She shouldn’t have mentioned it.
When they got into the car, Mu Li’s look suddenly changed. His look was so difficult to read that Lin Qing felt very confused.
She lifted her hand habitually to smooth the wrinkles between his eyebrows. But her lifting hand was stopped halfway.
Mu Li grabbed her wrist reproachfully and said, “Didn’t you say that you weren’t hurt?”
Lin Qing was confused. Then she followed Mu Li’s gaze at her calf.
The pain was probably not strong a moment ago. Lin Qing didn’t notice that her calf was blooding.
After being reminded by Mu Li, Lin Qing began to feel a little painful. She paused for a moment and then tried to touch the wound.
Mu Li could read her thoughts, and he stopped her subsequent action right away.
“Don’t touch it. Let’s go to the hospital!” Before she responded, Mu Li had started the car.
Upon hearing that they were going to the hospital, Lin Qing flinched and her small face turned awful.
“I don’t want to go to the hospital…” She whispered slowly, as if she had been suppressing the thought for a long time.
After saying that, she looked at Mu Li with a pitiful expression. Her big eyes sparkled pathetically, “Can’t we just go home?”
Mu Li felt that he was defeated by Lin Qing.
The medical supplies for treating the wound at home had run out. So when they passed by a pharmacy, Mu Li stopped by to buy medicine.
After getting back in the car, he threw a bag to Lin Qing. Lin Qing took a curious look inside.
Good lord. There were so many medical items in the bag.
Lin Qing thought to herself that she merely got grazed and bled a little. Was it really necessary to buy so many items and make such a big deal?
It seemed that there were at least five or six items in the bag that she hadn’t seen at all before
So she asked, “Not all of them are for me, right?”
Mu Li burst into a harsh laugh and rolled his eyes at her, “What do you think?”
Lin Qing’s got the answer that she did not want to hear.
As soon as they got home, Lin Qing wanted to hide away from Mu Li.
She changed her shoes and intended to run swiftly upstairs and hide under the covers. Unfortunately, she was pulled back by Mu Li.
“You have not used the medicine yet. Where are you going?” She heard Mu Li behind her.
Somehow, Lin Qing found Mu Li’s voice a little bit sinister and frightening.
Actually, it was only her fantasy.
Lin Qing regretted inwardly. If she had known it earlier, she wouldn’t have changed her shoes.
She had no choice but to take the bag over and then obediently sat on the sofa.
Mu Li went to wash his hands and walked to the sofa while Lin Qing was nervous.
Lin Qing lowered her head and the bag was beside her. He didn’t know what she was thinking about.
“Lin Qing, stretch out your calf.” Mu Li sat beside her and said gently.
Lin Qing stretched out her leg a little bit with fear and bit her lip.
She trembled a little. Mu Li finally realized that she was too nervous.
“Does it hurt?” Mu Li’s heart ached inexplicably. He then touched Lin Qing’s forehead.
Fortunately, the temperature was normal.
At this moment, Lin Qing shook her head.
“Then, is the pain causing you to be nervous?” Mu Li stared at the wound on her leg with a worried look.
It seemed that she was scratched by something sharp and then got this wound, which had stopped bleeding just before she got off the car.
However, things were still not optimistic.
Lin Qing pursed her lips and unwillingly said, “I’m afraid… of the smell of the hospital.”
Then she pointed to the bag on the sofa and said, “I’m also afraid of this…”
Mu Li suddenly understood.
No wonder she didn’t want to go to the hospital, and even tried to sneak away when they got home. Now he knew why.
“Don’t worry, I am good at handling wound. It won’t hurt.” Mu Li consoled her.
However, why did these words sound pretty weird?
He asked himself in mind.
“Good at it?” Lin Qing repeated his words. It seemed like she recalled something bad. She trembled obviously.
Mu Li laughed and rubbed her head, pulling her into his arms.
“What are you thinking about? Why are you so scared?” His slender fingers ran through Lin Qing’s long hair, “If the wound is left untreated, it will become infected. Be a good girl.”
Think about what? Lin Qing was a little confused. She protested, “I’m not thinking about anything…”
Mu Li pinched her cheek and acknowledged, “Alright, you’re not thinking about anything.”
Because of Mu Li’s gentle touch, Lin Qing calmed down a little. Then, it seemed that she wasn’t that scared anymore.
Just like what happened in the cinema.
While Lin Qing was thinking about that, Mu Li had already placed Lin Qing’s calf onto his own legs. He carefully examined the wound and then took out alcohol, iodine, cotton swabs, gauze, and the like from the bag.
Mu Li was extremely skilled at dealing with wounds.
When he washed the wound with alcohol, he could clearly feel that Lin Qing’s body was trembling.
However, Lin Qing kept silent all the time. She clenched her teeth and lowered her head.
After he dressed the wound, Mu Li rubbed Lin Qing’s head and said, “Alright, there’s no need to be nervous.”
Only then did Lin Qing dare to turn to look at her own calf.
She put her leg down and moved it. Her calf was well bandaged up, and she felt no pain at all.
This was the first time that Lin Qing demonstrated no strong resistance to dealing with the wound. Suddenly, she felt a little touched.
“Mu Li…” Lin Qing looked at Mu Li with tears of gratitude.
Mu Li was stunned by her gaze. This was rare.
Lin Qing was not afraid of going to the hospital, but of the liquid medicine that was applied to her wounds.
When she was a child, a doctor with poor medical ethics treated her wounds, which left a terrible impression on her.
Because of this experience, Lin Qing decided that if she got injured again in the future, she would allow Mu Li to treat all her wounds.
Thinking of this, she became much happier.
So she raised her head and said, “Will you help me in the future?”
“In the future?” Mu Li narrowed his eyes and gave Lin Qing a flick on the head without mercy, “Do you want to hurt yourself again in the future?”
Lin Qing felt being wronged and pouted, “It’s just in case…”
Mu Li touched her forehead. She really thought too much.
But Mu Li agreed to her “unreasonable” demand. Although he did not know why he was defeated by her.
“Alright, let me get you upstairs.” After a while, Mu Li stood up to help her up.
But Lin Qing grabbed his clothes first.
This cautious movement cause Mu Li to pause for a while.
“What’s the matter?” His heart became tender and his tone was soft.
Lin Qing scratched her head with embarrassment, “Please come over here.”
As Lin Qing spoke, she looked at the wound. Mu Li thought that something was wrong with the wound, and he bent down.
At the same time Lin Qing made a gesture that shocked Mu Li again.
Lin Qing put her tiny arms around his neck. As she pulled him downwards, Mu Li couldn’t help but bend down.
She hugged him.
This was the first time that Lin Qing approached him involuntarily.
Mu Li had a strange feeling inside
The hug was short, friendly, and pure.
However, when Lin Qing was about to relax her grip, Mu Li seized the opportunity. He quickly sucked her bottom lip directly and took control of her mouth.
“Oh…” Being ambushed, Lin Qing got a little flustered.
However, Mu Li did not give Lin Qing the chance to escape. Instead, he chased after her soft tongue…
Lin Qing felt sad inside for a long time. She thought of a slang: set the wolf to keep the sheep.
Now, she could do nothing about it.
