Chapter 1228 - Not Enough to be Scared (2/2)
Qiao Sen was an undercover spy at a criminal organization. He naturally couldn’t reject it if his boss wanted to give women to him.
But, did he really sleep with those two women before?
It really p.i.s.sed her off!
Even though Cen Xi was angry, she didn’t forget her responsibilities. Her priority should be taking care of Qiao Sen so that he could recover quickly.
What were feelings? She should wait until he left that controversial place!
…
After she stopped herself from thinking about her feelings, Cen Xi felt a lot more at ease when she faced Qiao Sen.
She took care of him carefully every day, helping him change his dressings, feeding him his meals and even got up in the middle of the night to help cover him with the blanket.
That day after he almost got injured from holding in his bladder, he was even more unwilling to talk to her.
It was common for her to speak ten sentences before he would reply coldly with a short response. Most of the time, it was something like, “Shut up”, “Scram” or “You’re really noisy”.
Anyway, he never gave her a nice expression to look at.
At times, Cen Xi would get so angry she would stomp her feet and throw a towel at him. However, she wouldn’t be angry for more than thirty minutes every time. She would remember her responsibility and come back to take care of him properly.
Anyway, once he had recovered and she had finished her mission, she would owe him nothing.
Although they didn’t get along well most of the time, Cen Xi still found out lots of little details about him. One was that he was a clean freak. He would get her to clean both his hands properly before he ate.
Every night, he would still get one of his men, Ah Xin, to wipe his body for him.
One night, Ah Xin went to settle something and didn’t come back. He couldn’t get his body wiped and became really hot-tempered. From that alone, she could feel that he had some nuances as a young master in his bones.
Seven days pa.s.sed, and Cen Xi was so tired she had lost some weight.
She just needed a few more days. Once his wound had no chance of infection and healed properly, there shouldn’t be a problem anymore.
Cen Xi hadn’t slept properly for a few nights already. Today, she really couldn’t hold on anymore and changed s.h.i.+fts with another nurse to take care of Qiao Sen while she went back to the dormitory to sleep.
Cen Xi didn’t know how long she slept, but someone shook her awake suddenly.
Opening her eyes, she noted a nurse with red eyes and tear streaks on her face. Cen Xi sat up. ”Xiao Mi, what’s wrong?”
“Xiao Hei, that ward’s patient has a really bad temper and he’s so fierce! His eyes are so cold. Because of that, I was nervous and couldn’t inject him properly. The second time, I still couldn’t do it. I’ve never made such a mistake and I still couldn’t get the needle in on my third try. Then he told me to scram.”
Cen Xi’s mouth twitched.
If she had been poked three times by a needle inaccurately, not only would she tell the person to scram, she would even scold that person.
It felt painful even at the thought of it.
“I don’t want to go to that room anymore, please go yourself!”
Cen Xi hummed in response, changing her clothes as she hurriedly ran towards the room. When she was about to arrive at the room, another nurse ran out with red eyes.
Seeing Cen Xi arrive, the chief nurse looked like she seen her savior. “Xiao Hei, you’re here! Hurry and go in to give Mr Qiao his injection!”
Cen Xi pulled the door open and saw the man.
He had no expression on his face, but his eyes were extremely dark. His hand on the bed was still bleeding from the wrong injections.
Cen Xi’s heart tightened and she walked in hurriedly. Taking a cotton bud, she helped stop the blood flowing from the back of his hand.
She didn’t dare look at him, but she could still feel the dark eyes on her.
Oh no, she actually forgot to wear her face mask.
However, it should be fine as well. She had put on makeup to make herself look uglier, so he probably wasn’t able to recognize her.
“So you look like this.” The man’s temperature-less voice trailed from above her.
Cen Xi could hear the scoff in his words, as she looked up and glared at him angrily. “What’s wrong with being ugly? Do you think you look very good? Tsktsk, your face…”
Qiao Yanze furrowed his eyebrows. What was wrong with his face? Did something happen to his fake skin? Could she see something?
“Get out!”
Seeing his temper change so suddenly, Cen Xi furrowed his eyebrows. “No, your face, let me…” She reached out, wanting to touch his face.
However, before she could touch him, he grabbed her wrist.
The temperature of his hand seemed to be lower than usual, cold and freezing. The moment he grabbed her hand, Cen Xi s.h.i.+vered coldly.
She took back her hand. “So you can still use your strength. Besides, I don’t want to take advantage of you, I only saw something on your face.”
“You don’t have to care. I told you to get out.”
Why was his att.i.tude so foul? After all, she had taken care of him to her best ability in the last few days and they were teammates as well, couldn’t he be better to her?
The more he didn’t want her to touch his face, the more she wanted to do it!
Just as her fingers were about to touch his face, she didn’t have time to react when something happened.
[1] Xiao Hei in Chinese means Little Black, likely he was calling her that because of her dark skin tone
