Chapter 352 - Like A Donkey (1/2)

Cheng Zheng turned around and took out his medicine box, pointing a finger outside, “Let’s go!”

It was only slightly more than 10 steps from his room to their room…

As Xiang Wan walked back to her room, her face and ears were already flushed red and her throat was dry.

This was because she suddenly thought of something.

Were the rooms in this little hotel soundproof?

Bai Muchuan was still the same when she left, lying lazily on the bed. He did not seem to be at all concerned about the wound on his arm.

At the very least, he was not that concerned about himself, unlike Xiang Wan…

He glanced at Cheng Zheng quietly.

Cheng Zheng also glanced at him without uttering a word.

He walked to the bed and started to remove the old dressing for Bai Muchuan. After that, he disinfected and applied for some medicine before dressing up his wound… From the beginning till the end, he said nothing. That cold and stern look of his made Xiang Wan, who was standing aside, felt at a loss; whereas Bai Muchuan did not seem to mind it at all.

She felt like she was standing at a junction with piercing cold wind coming from the two men who were similar to “air-conditioners”.

“Done.” Cheng Zheng packed up his stuff and was preparing to leave.

“Thank you.” Bai Muchuan said neither warm nor cold towards him.

“Mm!” Cheng Zheng walked a few steps before stopping.

He did not turn back, as if he was talking to the door.

“Do take more care of yourself, things are different now.”

After a short pause, he looked at Xiang Wan from the corner of his eye. “Even if you don’t care about yourself, you need to spare a thought for Xiang Wan.”

Hur! Bai Muchuan laughed. “Do you have the right to say that?”

A battle between them was about to start again!

Xiang Wan felt her scalp going numb just from hearing that.

Sir Little Bai was always courteous to others, except for Cheng Zheng. It was like he had snatched his territory; every time he saw Cheng Zheng, he would usually be mean toward him.

Xiang Wan noticed that Cheng Zheng’s expression darkened. She did not want them to fight and quickly tried to prevent it from happening.

“It’s getting late. Captain Cheng, we’ve troubled you. Please have a good rest!”

Her method was actually fine.

However, not one of them appreciated her effort.

Cheng Zheng walked away just like that.

Immediately after he left, Bai Muchuan asked with an unhappy expression, “Did you think that I’m being unreasonable and was picking on him?”

“…”

What was he thinking?

Xiang Wan smiled and examined his wound carefully. “I don’t know about the bad blood between you and Captain Cheng. I only know that it’s not nice to fight in the middle of the night. What if others heard it?”

Bai Muchuan did not reply. He drew his arm back slowly and looked away.

“Xiang Wan…”

“Yeah?”

“Have you ever trusted someone wholeheartedly?”

Trusting someone wholeheartedly? What kind of trust is that? she thought.

Xiang Wan mulled over it for a moment. “Yes. You…”

Her words made Bai Muchuan satisfied.

He turned his head and looked into Xiang Wan’s bright eyes, before slowly turning away to look at the heater. “If I were to betray you… No, if you got betrayed and abandoned by someone you have trusted wholeheartedly in a thorough manner, will you hate him?”

“…”

Xiang Wan couldn’t answer.

However, from his words, she could somehow deduce something from it.

“Is that person… Cheng Zheng?”

She was curious.

She was craving for an answer!

Nevertheless, Bai Muchuan only puffed a sigh after gazing at her for a long time.

“It’s not him; I’m just making a metaphor. Little Xiang Wan, we should go to bed! Tomorrow, after all the things here are done, we’ll go back to Nanmu!”

“…”

Xiang Wan pretended to be irritated.

“You’re being very annoying! You didn’t want to tell me…”

“…” Bai Muchuan suddenly cracked up and got up to take her hand. “We can study this problem slowly, but tonight is not the right time.”

Wasn’t that her words?

Hurhur, he used her words against her.

Wonderful, Sir Little Bai!

Xiang Wan chuckled and let him pull her onto the bed.

“Oh, if that’s the case, what is suitable to talk about tonight?”

“It’s a technical problem…” Bai Muchuan furrowed his eyebrows as he looked at her seriously with his gleaming eyes. “I couldn’t figure it out… Did I really… Mm… Got in?”

“Ahhhhhh!” Xiang Wan hammered him at the shoulders.

“We should continue to put out the fire!”

…

The next morning, the town was still snowing.

News of the explosion over at Wen Xin Nunnery had already spread throughout Nanmu.

Although the snow was very heavy, it didn’t stop the locals from gathering to take a look at the scene.

That day, there were more visitors in town than usual.

The crowd gathered and talked about Wen Xin Nunnery.

The police cordoned off the only path to the nunnery.

As there were concerns of remaining bombs around the area, they did not allow any visitors to go up the mountain.

Hence, in a place that was already backward, many guesses and imaginary stories spread…

When Xiang Wan woke up in the morning, her wound felt much better.
