Ning Meng let out a soft gasp as she used her hands to cup her face . Nevertheless, an urge drove her to peek through the cracks of her fingers . Huo Beichen looked skinny when he had a shirt on . Now that it was removed, Ning Meng could see that he was rather muscular; every single inch of his body perfectly crafted .

Ning Meng turned her gaze downward, an unexplained force pulling her them to the forbidden zone! Immediately, Huo Beichen used a towel to cover himself . Ning Meng was left in disappointment .
“What are you looking at?” asked Ning Meng, somewhat abashed .
“There is something on your body!”
“What?”
“I found a hint of handsomeness on you!”
He lowered his head down and laid his eyes on Ning Meng . Thanks to her fair skin, he could see that her ears had flushed and the redness of her lips the obvious centerpiece on her palm-sized face . Under her slim, trimmed eyebrows, a pair of soulful eyes were unveiled .

Suddenly, Huo Beichen could feel a warmth heating the location Ning Meng was staring at .
“Get out!” shouted Huo, Beichen abruptly .
“Okay . ”
Ning Meng stepped out of the room and closed the door behind her . Lo and behold, just when Huo Beichen was about to take off the towel and shower, Ning Meng opened the door again and popped her head into the room .
“Hubby, I don’t think you have eaten, right? I can cook you a bowl of tomato egg noodles, but you have to allow me to first nurse your wound . ”
Huo Beichen glared at her, not uttering a single word .
“How about I cook for you for a week?”

“A month . ”
A month was rather long!
Ning Meng’s heart was softened when she saw the white bandages on his arm .
“Deal!”
Ten minutes later, Ning Meng was done with the cooking, and Huo Beichen was done with his shower as well . With a towel wrapped around his waist, his hair still dripped with water . He tried his best to stop the water from seeping into his bandages . Yet, despite his best efforts, it was slightly damp .
But, it seemed he did not care at all . Seeing the noodles being laid on the table, he used his left hand to pick up chopsticks and started to gobble down the noodles . Seeing him so preoccupied with the food, Ning Meng took the opportunity to go to his right side with a first-aid box in her hand .
“Enjoy the noodles . Let me apply some cream on your wound . ”

This time, Huo Beichen did not reject Ning Meng .
Right before she landed her hand, Ning Meng halted in mid-air, hesitating .
“Hubby, you are a man… can I… touch you?”
“Haha… I’m just kidding!”
Suddenly, she realized that Huo Beichen had been glaring at her . Immediately, she took back what she said .
“This joke is not funny at all!”
When she opened up the bandages, a terrifying sight greeted her . The blisters had all popped, and there were blood and pus seeping from the raw flesh . First, Ning Meng cleaned the wound with some saline water, then applied some cream on the wound before wrapping it with a new set of bandages, instinctively making a butterfly loop on them .
Huo Beichen had his eyes fixed on the butterfly loop after Ning Meng was done with the dressing . All his ruthlessness was now gone, replaced with hollow loneliness .
“Do you not like it? I can wrap it up again . ”
Before she could touch him, Huo Beichen stood up all of a sudden! His eyes sparkled with an endless sea of stars! After a while, he turned around and walked up the stairs with the butterfly-loop bandages on his arm . As she looked at him from the back, an infinite sadness gripped her heart .
Seven days later .
Huo Beichen’s arm had almost fully recovered . Feeling an improvement in his situation, he unwrapped the bandages .
It was at that time that something significant happened in the entertainment industry! The new song Su Tiantian released had just topped the music charts!
