When they got out of the car, Lu Yinchu took her hand. To his surprise, she was more composed than usual and did not pull away. As their palms touched, she felt an inexplicable sense of calm.
Lu Yinchu said, "Don't go anywhere. Stay at home and rest."
Nanxi's eyes flickered as she nodded in agreement.
"Also," Lu Yinchu paused, "keep using the ointment and taking the medicine. If you run out, call me."
Nanxi nodded again. Lu Yinchu said nothing more. Nanxi felt awkward, and she parted her lips to say, "Well... I'll go now."
"Mm."
Nanxi got out of the car. Lu Yinchu didn't cling to her, only watching her delicate figure recede into the distance.
Nanxi didn't dare turn back, but she knew he was watching. He always gazed at her in a way that felt like an offering, which she never accepted...
Yet, why did she have that feeling? It was a mystery to her.
