“You’re recovering slower than I expected.” Luo Ziling’s face was red as he carefully checked the condition of the wound. “You left in a hurry last time, so I didn’t have time to tell you about any follo-up procedures or give you the medicine.”
“Do I need more treatment?” Linlan asked in a similarly low voice.
“Well…will you send me back later?”
Linlan nodded.
“Til make you a bottle of medicine when I go back to the dorm. Rub it on your scars every day to make them fade away.” Luo Ziling was embarrassed. “I came in a hurry just now, so I couldn’t bring the medicine along with me.”
“That’s fine.” Linlan nodded and asked, “Do you want to take a look at the wound on my leg?”
“If it’s the same as here, then there’s no need.” Luo Ziling pointed at the long scar stretching from her shoulder blade down the left side of her chest.” When you were injured, I actually wanted to remove this scar for you.”
“Really?” Linlan couldn’t hide the surprise on her face.
“Yes.”
“Then help me treat it. Tl owe you one more favor.”
“Sure thing!”
“Help me treat it now,” said Linlan. She brought the hand that was covering her chest down and stood in front of Luo Ziling calmly.
Luo Ziling couldn’t help but blush, once again finding himself at a loss.
Seeing his red face and the panic written all over it, Linlan felt inexplicably relieved.
This was the nature of a pure man. He would blush and panic when seeing a woman’s body.
He’d already seen her body multiple times back then, so it wasn’t a big deal to her, Linlan thought.
it was because of this that she was calmer than Luo Ziling.
“Can you remove it?” she asked.
“C-can I touch it?” Luo Ziling asked boldly. Realizing how his words might have sounded, he hurriedly amended, “T-To check the condition of the scar, I mean.”
Linlan nodded without hesitation. This was a normal request; if Luo Ziling had given her a diagnosis without actually checking the scar, she would’ve gotten angry.
With a trembling finger, Luo Ziling reached out and traced the scar thar marked Linlan’s collarbone. It was as thick as a finger, and he asked softly, “Does it hurt?”
Linlan was stunned for a moment, but immediately shook her head. “No, it doesn’t.”
“When you were injured, I mean. Did it hurt then?”
Hearing his words, Linlan took a moment to think over her words, then said softly, “Yes, it did. But it’s over now.”
“Who was so ruthless that they would slash at you like this?” Luo Ziling asked, his fingers trembling ever so slightly.
“It wasn’t on purpose! “Luo Ziling suddenly blushed, as if he was the one who’d been molested.
He hurriedly reached for the bag he had brought with him, but after digging through it, he was dumbfounded.
He had been so excited to see Linlan take off her clothes that he forgot that he hadn’t brought the scar-removing medicine with him.
In fact, he had already told Linlan that he would mix up some diluted medicinal powder for her bruises, but he had forgotten all about it about it in his nervousness. However, he wasn’t the one who’d asked Linlan to take off her clothes! She was the one who took the initiative to take them off!
Thinking of this, he felt a little more at ease. “…About that, I forgot to bring the medicine!”
Linlan’s expression instantly turned cold. She glared fiercely at Luo ziling, then quickly turned around, put on her underwear as he stared at her back, then put on her leather jacket. After tidying herself up, she walked out of the room without a second glance back, without even acknowledging his
presence.
Luo Ziling was stunned for a moment, then quickly followed after her.
Linlan didn’t look back and walked directly to the Hummer parked outside.
Luo Ziling trailed behind her, looking very much like a kicked puppy and feeling very dejected.
When the two of them walked out of the house together, they ran into a few dark-skinned men.
Without even asking, Luo Ziling could tell that these cold-faced men were definitely soldiers like Linlan.
He looked at them curiously, but those people ignored him and instead turned to Linlan, to which he couldn’t help but feel a little depressed.
“How did it go?” The two men asked Linlan.
Linlan looked at Luo Ziling, who was following behind her expressionlessly. She hesitated for a moment before replying, “There is hope for a cure. The chief treats him well, too; it’s the first time anyone’s ever been treated that well.”
Her words were surprising to the two men, and the way they looked at Luo Ziling seemed to change.
This made him feel slightly more comfortable, and he could not help but reveal a shy smile.
Without saying anything else, the men left.
After leading him to the car, Lin Lan opened the car door and sat in the driver’s seat.
Luo Ziling hesitated for a moment before finally climbing into the front passenger seat.
“I didn’t do it on purpose!” he cried, looking nervously at the silent Linlan. “I swear that I didn’t do it to ogle you!”
“Lknow that,” she said curtly, then started the car and stepped on the accelerator, driving off at a fast speed and startling Luo Ziling in the process. When he regained his composure, she continued, “Besides, you are a doctor. In your eyes, men are no different from women.”
“Tl definitely help you remove all the scars,” Luo Ziling said firmly, as if he was apologizing. “When you come back tomorrow, I’ll treat you properly, okay?”
Linlan didn’t say anything, instead nodding slightly in response.
Seeing her nod, Luo Ziling heaved a sigh of relief…
