When Han Luoli mentioned the words "get married," he shocked himself.
In his past twenty-seven years, marriage had never been part of his plan. Even though Wen Mu clung to him and tried every means to force him, he never entertained the idea.
But just now, the words had slipped out without his control.
Thinking about holding her in his sleep, watching her wake up, sharing a home with her, just fantasizing about it made the corners of his mouth involuntarily lift.
But the girl across from him seemed stunned, showing no reaction. She even looked rather troubled.
Get married?
Gu Xiaoer blinked several times, making sure he wasn't joking. The man's serious and solemn expression made her grow serious as well, as she repeatedly refused, "No, no, no..."
"…" A mighty CEO gets rejected in marriage proposal, does he have any self-confidence left at all?
Gu Xiaoer touched the two earrings on her ears, the sudden fated encounter causing her 'Little Ears' to heat up too, she explained with a serious little frown on her face, "I haven't saved up enough money to redeem you yet..."
"…"
Han Luoli sighed, his thoughts stirred. Silly girl was still thinking about his so-called debt of servitude. He steadied himself but before he could say anything, Shen Minghan knocked and entered from outside.
With the sensitivity and attention to detail of a doctor, Shen Minghan sensed an atmosphere filled with "spring cheerfulness" as soon as he stepped into the ward. Seeing Han Luoli looking refreshed and clearly content, he immediately guessed most of it.
Inwardly teasing his good friend, no wonder he was in such a rush earlier, it turned out he went to pick up a girl!
This guy was really too much, daring to fool around with injuries all over his body, did he not value his life!
"You, it's time to change your dressing." Shen Minghan said grumpily, his sharp eyes had already made a thorough inspection of Gu Xiaoer.
Those earrings...
So Han Luoli really did pick them up. He didn't say a word just now, causing him and Sister Sun so much worry. But looking more closely...
They seemed familiar, but he was sure he hadn't seen them with Han Luoli; it was just a familiar feeling. Unable to remember, he let it go.
"Brother Minghan, can we change it here?" Gu Xiaoer asked Shen Minghan for permission. She had wanted to see the wounds on his back for a long time now, but every time they were securely covered with gauze, and she couldn't see the details.
But just by the size of the wrappings, it was terrifyingly large.
Shen Minghan pondered for a moment without immediately answering Gu Xiaoer. He tossed a look at Han Luoli, saw that he had no objection, and then nodded.
"Xiao Er, the burns on Luoli's back are quite terrifying, are you scared?" He wheeled in the medical cart, quickly put on disposable gloves, and chatted with Gu Xiaoer while working.
"It's because of my injury, how could I be scared?"
"What about the scars? You won't despise them?"
…Han Luoli, lying down with his muscular and powerful back exposed, twitched the corners of his mouth. Shen Minghan, what's with this sabotage, are you trying to ruin my chances?
Gu Xiaoer shook her head, looking genuinely regretful, "Even though Da Luoluo will have blemishes in the future, at least they're not on his face, I don't mind!"
Blemishes?...So you really aren't after my good looks!
Han Luoli truly wanted to sit up and punish her.
"Hahaha!" Shen Minghan, who loved a good show, laughed heartily while he unwrapped the gauze from the trembling man, "Don't worry, little girl, the ointment here at Brother Minghan's is very effective. I promise to return to you a healthy and handsome Da Luoluo!"
"Eh?" Gu Xiaoer tilted her little head, "Is it really that miraculous?"
"Of course!"
Han Luoli also appreciated the thoughtfulness of his good friend; Minghan was deliberately saying this out of concern that Xiao Er might feel guilty.
For his good intentions, he would just have to make his death a quick and painless one...
