Finally out of the shower, Shi Huan spent quite some time getting ready for bed, listening carefully to the sounds outside her room. When she was certain that Chu Xiuhuang had fallen asleep, she finally opened the door and stepped out.
But...
Chu Xiuhuang was not asleep at all!
He sat there on the couch like a leopard waiting for the right moment to strike, his eyes slanted as he watched her intently.
Caught off guard, Shi Huan was taken aback and stammered, "Mr. Chu, you...how...why..."
"Come and help me apply the medicine," said Chu Xiuhuang.
Medicine?
Chu Xiuhuang raised his hand. "Considering how badly you scratched me, isn't it only fair that you help me with my wounds?"
Glancing at his arm, Shi Huan saw it covered with angry red cuts and scrapes, some of them even bleeding. The sight was horrifying.
Did she... did she do that bad?
"Hurry up!"
Shi Huan: "..."
