Chapter 167 - Déjà vu (1/2)

Changyu watched the both of them converse happily. So this was what went on behind her back every night? Helene had told her she was going to have a fair fight with her for Jianjun's affection. So this was the fair fight? Happily having a conversation with him in the middle of the night?

But wait, why was she here also? Was it not for the same reason.

She remembered the saying 'All is fair in love and war'.

She took light steps inside the kitchen to where they both were speaking. She was never going to go back. It would only give Helene more opportunity in flirting with her man.

Jianjun's eyes shone when he saw her and mistakenly cut his finger with the knife he was using to chop a onion.

It was Changyu's turn to widen her eyes when she caught sight of the blood.

Before Helene could attend to him or say anything, Changyu moved past her to meet Jianjun.

”I am so sorry. You must be really hurt” She wrapped her small hand around his wrist to take a proper look at it. ”Let's go to the hospital” She said gently before pulling him with her.

Hospital? Jianjun wondered. What for? This was only a minor cut and only a little blood spilled. He looked down at her hand that was wrapped around his wrist as he willingly followed her out. He was totally short of words.

That moment, he remembered someone else was there so he looked over his shoulder to signal for Helene to help with the ingredients. Changyu didn't even bother to acknowledge her and just quickened her pace.

Helene gave a simple smile and nodded, indicating she would handle it.

”What are you doing here?” He asked gently as she treated his wound.

He was able to convince her to use the first aid tools in the restaurant's sick bay instead of going to the hospital. It was late and he didn't want her to be wandering about the city. It was no safe place for a young delicate lady like herself.

The problem was, she didn't know how to administer a first aid treatment. After showing and teaching her what to do, she was able to get it and help him.

”I came to see someone” She replied without raising her head from his hand.

”Who?” He asked curiously. He didn't like the idea of her going out to see someone by this time. He didn't like the idea of her going to see someone at all. Especially if it was a guy.

”Why do you care who?” She asked with an angry tone. Still not looking at him. How dare he cheat on her with Helene?

Despite the fact that she was angry, she still took great care in disinfecting his wound not to cause him pain.

She didn't care what anyone thought. To her, she was already in a relationship with Jianjun. She was only waiting for him to join her in it.

”You sound annoyed. Did someone annoy you?” He asked in concern.

”You're all clean now.” She said before arranging back the first aid box.

”Changyu.” Jianjun called her.

She saw the look of concern he gave her.

Of course, he felt something was wrong. She was really not her usual nice self.

”You must really like Helene” She managed to say. Trying her best to sound unhurt.

He gave her a confused look. Like Helene? Why this sudden question out of the blue?

”Am I wrong?” She asked in am accusing tone.

”No... I mean.. Yes” He had not been paying attention so he thought she asked 'Am I right?'

But Changyu latched on the 'No'. An angry girl in love was difficult to convince.
