The moon is setting, the sky is dark and cold, and the leaves are rustling in the autumn night.
The light in Yuqing Garden is bright and warm, contrasting with the night outside.
In the guest bedroom on the second floor of the villa, a gray room, the bathroom door is open.
A dim light overflowed from the bathroom and fell on the thin carpet on the ground. The man stood there with an upright posture, wearing a military uniform. His tall body blocked half of the dark light coming from the bathroom.
His whole face was fair and handsome, with a cold expression. He was standing beside the bed with his head lowered and his figure upright, seeming to exude a cold, dignified and calm temperament.
However, at this moment, the door was gently pushed open, and a ray of light shone on Shen Chaoxi's face.
Her movement was slight, but it caused the man in the room who had originally planned to change clothes and go into the bathroom to take a shower to move.
Lu Yunzhou's eyes darkened, his brows furrowed tightly, his long white bony fingers fell on his clothes, and his military uniform was still half open.
There was gauze wrapped around the shoulders, and the obvious muscle lines on the abdomen, smooth and distinct, fell into Shen Chaoxi's eyes.
She raised her eyebrows slightly, as if after seeing Lu Yunzhou without clothes, a dark smile flashed in her eyes.
"Do you need help?"
Shen Chaoxi smiled and spoke. She walked in as if nothing had happened, and the light from the bathroom shone on the man's face.
He turned slightly and looked towards Shen Chaoxi. The light made his face look like pure snow, and his dark eyes were dyed with a layer of gentle moisture, and he looked into Shen Chaoxi's eyes.
"Shen Chaoxi."
His thin lips moved slightly, and his voice was low and pleasant, but inexplicably revealed a kind of nervousness.
"Are you going to rest first? I want to take a shower."
Lu Yunzhou explained in a hoarse tone.
After looking at the girl who suddenly entered his room, Lu Yunzhou frowned slightly. He seemed not to have expected that Shen Chaoxi would appear here at this time.
"I know."
Know?
Lu Yunzhou frowned.
Then she still comes in.
At this time, she saw Shen Chaoxi coming in without hesitation. She walked up to the man with a pair of peach blossom eyes and a hint of smile.
"But the injury on your hand, do you really not need help?"
When he was cooking downstairs before, he clearly cooked the food himself, and it must be said that he was helping Chen Yu.
Well.
Then if she doesn't expose it, after all, she's just cooking, and as long as she doesn't strain the wound and doesn't touch the water, it'll be fine.
But this matter, related to the injury on his shoulder, was not a joke.
"I can do it myself."
Lu Yunzhou frowned, lowered his eyes, and said in a cold voice in front of Shen Chaoxi.
"The injury on my hand is not serious."
Shen Chaoxi knew he would say this, her breath was slightly confused for no reason, and she laughed.
"Yeah."
Hearing her words, Lu Yunzhou's eyebrows tightened, and his slender fingers with clear joints paused in front of him. The smooth and clear outlines were also exposed to Shen Chaoxi's sight.
She raised her eyes and smiled appreciatively, blending with the man's serious and handsome face in the dim light outside the bathroom.
Even her voice became a little unclear, mixed with a touch of temptation and interest.
"Does Chief Lu think you can coax me as well as you did with the children in the shopping mall in the financial center?"
"I still think I'm stupid."
"Is there something wrong with your hand? Can't I tell?"
Lu Yunzhou's eyes dimmed suddenly, and he knew that Chao Chao must have guessed it.
"Why, Chief Lu is still trying to trick people."
Shen Chaoxi stared at him.
"No." Lu Yunzhou frowned, his voice was low and full of magnetism, but a little thick, as if he had lowered his breath.
"If not, I can verify it later when you take a shower."
Whether his injuries are serious or not, sometimes you can't hide it from others as long as you see it with your own eyes.
With that said, Shen Chaoxi took the lead and took a step ahead of him and entered the bathroom inside. The bathroom in Yuqingyuan, whether it was the master bedroom or the guest bedroom, was quite spacious.
The soft light, like that kind of warm light, shines on people's faces, making them neutralize some serious sharpness and indifference, and become as gentle as jade.
After being pushed in by Shen Chaoxi, in the huge bathroom, the man's eyes were dark and his thin lips were slightly pursed.
Lu Yunzhou had never resisted her in any way. He stood in front of her with his head lowered and said in a low tone.
"Chaochao, am I really okay?"
But Shen Chaoxi's eyes clearly showed disbelief.
"fine?"
"Chief Lu, tell me, it's because your shoulder injury split three times that it's okay."
"Doctor Gu told you in the hospital that if the wound opens again, your arm will be useless and you'll be fine?"
Shen Chaoxi raised her eyes, her voice was slightly cold, but full of questioning.
Lu Yunzhou's eyes dimmed, as if he heard her words and instantly realized that she was angry.
His lips were tightened into a straight line, and there was an indescribable calmness of a man, but when he looked into her eyes, his voice lowered, and he took the initiative to give up.
"Chaochao."
Shen Chaoxi looked at him and said, "Chief Lu."
"Do you think you are great?"
"You don't say anything even when you're hurt."
The gunshot wound on my shoulder became infected and I secretly ran to the hospital to see Dr. Gu for treatment. Lu Yunzhou, do you think I'm stupid?
But Shen Chaoxi didn't say these words, she just stared at the nervous man in front of her.
"I didn't want to hide it from you."
When faced with Shen Chaoxi's questioning, Lu Yunzhou was always the emotionally stable person.
Lu Yunzhou lowered his eyes and met her eyes. There was a faint worry in his eyes, as if he was afraid that she would be unhappy.
"Shen Chaoxi."
"I'm afraid you will feel guilty if you find out about this."
It was his own choice to shield her from the gun.
He didn't want Chaochao to have any psychological burden on his heart.
"But Lu Yunzhou, you were injured because of me."
Shen Chaoxi said in a calm tone.
"I have the right to know the condition of your injuries."
Even if there is no marriage contract between them.
Even if they were just ordinary comrades, he had to tell her the truth.
For the first time, Shen Chaoxi felt that he was like a complete fool and didn't say anything.
If Gu Suizhou hadn't told her the last time he came to Yuqing Garden, she would still have been kept in the dark.
In her eyes, Lu Yunzhou is an adult and should know the seriousness of shoulder injuries.
What's more, he is a soldier.
"Okay." Lu Yunzhou suddenly said hoarsely.
In front of Shen Chaoxi, he would always lower his attitude, as long as Chaochao said so.
He listened to them all.
"I won't hide anything from you from now on."
"I told you everything."
Lu Yunzhou opened his thin lips and said in a serious voice.
What he fears most is that Chao Chao will be unhappy.
Chao Chao's body encountered those things in Dongzhou.
He just wants to coax her now.
Take care of her.
Don't let her get hurt.
