Nine Hundred and Eighty-Five I Want to Kiss You (I)
Ye Yan took off the apron, walked around behind her, and wrapped the apron around her body. Shu Nian obviously didn't expect him to be like this. His hand holding the spatula tightened and he subconsciously took a step forward, trying to keep a distance from him.
"Be careful, fire." Ye Yan warned, pulling on both ends of the apron, and with a little force, he pulled her back and protected her in his arms. She leaned back and pressed against his chest.
This posture...
Instead, it felt like he was hugging her from behind. She could even hear her heart beating wildly.
Shu Nian's face suddenly turned red, his head lowered, and he made no sound. Ye Yan glanced at her and could see her trembling eyelashes, like fragile butterfly wings. He wanted to hold her like this and protect her in his arms so that she wouldn't have to endure any wind and rain.
In the end, he just comforted in a low voice, "Don't be nervous, I'm afraid you'll get burned. I don't mean any harm."
"...Well, I know." Shu Nian asked himself to relax. He is not Xiang Muyang and will not hurt himself.
Yeyan tied the apron on her and stepped back. Then Shu Nian became more unrestrained and showed off his skills in the kitchen. Ye Yan did not stay in the kitchen longer, but sat in the living room and watched TV.
However, while I was bored changing channels, my eyes drifted towards the kitchen from time to time.
Well, how come any woman looks so good when cooking? Everything he does is impeccable.
No wonder my father always likes to stare at my mother when she is cooking.
————
Shu Nian was very good at cooking and quickly cooked three dishes.
However, she didn't eat much.
Yeyan put the chicken steak in her bowl, "Eat more, you are so thin."
"Thank you." Shu Nian pulled his lips, took a small bite of the chicken steak, and looked out the window thoughtfully.
"You don't have to look outside. Tonight, no, you will stay here for the next few days." Ye Yan's tone was affirmative, without any discussion.
"Huh?" Shu Nian looked at him in astonishment.
"You were injured like this, how are you going to explain it to your dad when you go back?"
Shu Nian sighed,
"I'm thinking of finding a small hotel outside and staying there for a few nights."
"I am your creditor now. Keep the money you spent in the inn to pay off your debt. Unless you have other friends who can take you in."
Shu Nian looked down at the bowl in front of him, speechless. In this city, she has no friends. I have been living in a gloomy haze for the past few years. I am busy non-stop every day, so how can I find the time to deal with interpersonal relationships? She suddenly felt like a floating duckweed, wandering in the sea of people, but there was no place where she could really lick her wounds.
Somewhat sad.
Her silence made Ye Yan understand and made him feel distressed.
In the end, he just said: "That's it."
Shu Nian hesitated for a moment, but didn't push it back anymore. He nodded and looked at the man opposite him gratefully, "Thank you."
————
After dinner, Shu Nian was cleaning up the kitchen.
Ye Yan glanced at the clock on the wall and played with the ointment left by Fu Yunxi in his hand.
When Shu Nian came out of the kitchen, Ye Yan stood up and handed the ointment to her, "Go and apply it three times a day."
Shu Nian took the medicine and gestured towards the room, "Then I'll apply the medicine first."
Ye Yan nodded and watched her enter the room.
Shu Nian was in the bathroom, applying medicine in front of the mirror. The scars on the neck, face, and hands are easy to deal with. However, the injury on the back...
Shu Nian took off his men's pajamas slightly, revealing his snow-white shoulders and most of his bare back. Turning half sideways, he glanced at the wound. Thinking of Xiang Muyang's violence and madness, his eyes still couldn't help but feel sore. A marriage that was originally thought to save her from shock and pain ended up with such a funny and embarrassing broken ending. The past five years have been like a nightmare, and life has been like a joke.
He pulled his lips self-deprecatingly, retracted his mind, and moved his hands behind his back, trying to reach the wound. However, I couldn't touch it.
Forget it, it's just a skin injury anyway.
Just when Shu Nian was thinking about giving up, the bathroom door was suddenly pushed open from the outside. She subconsciously looked towards the door and saw Ye Yan standing at the door. The two people's eyes met, and she was stunned for a moment. When she came back to her senses, she remembered that she was disheveled at the moment.
Oops.
She bit her lip and immediately pulled up her pajamas in a panic. She didn't have time to button them up, so she just grabbed her chest with both hands.
"You want to use the bathroom? I'll go out first." She was so embarrassed that she had nothing to say. The temperature on her face soared, making her cheeks turn red.
Holding the clothes on his chest with both hands, he buried his head and wanted to go out.
However, after taking just one step, Ye Yan's tall body was already approaching.
"The wounds on the back can't be painted on, can they?" he asked in a low voice.
The man stood there upright, looking at her from top to bottom, his eyes as deep as a whirlpool. The soft light above his head made Shu Nian's heartbeat completely disordered. She tightened her hands and nodded, then shook her head, "It doesn't matter. It's just a little skin injury...it doesn't matter."
"Let me do it."
"...What?" Shu Nian stared at him in surprise, as if he heard wrongly.
However, meeting Ye Yan's deep eyes, she quickly looked away. I just felt my mouth became inexplicably dry.
Just now, you must have heard wrong, right?
"You turn around."
"...What to do?" Shu Nian stuttered.
Ye Yan saw that she didn't move, so he grabbed her shoulders and turned her around. Both of them stood in front of the mirror. He stood behind her. He was half a step away from her, but Shu Nian felt as if there was a fire behind her, so hot that her hands were sweating.
However, Ye Yan was unusually calm. He raised his hand and took the ointment off the glass table.
Shu Nian realized what he was going to do, half turned sideways, and tightly grasped the other end of the ointment.
"... I can't get enough."
"Let go."
Shu Nian shook his head.
"Three times a day. I promised Yunxi to supervise you."
"..." Her face flushed. How can you supervise like this?
Ye Yan just pulled lightly, and the ointment was taken away.
Shu Nian was frozen, not daring to move. Ye Yan squeezed the ointment on his fingertips, and with his other hand, he had already lifted her long hair hanging behind her. The snow-white back of her neck was exposed, and the scars on it made Ye Yan's face darken. Damn Xiang Muyang, he actually had the heart to do that!
He applied the medicine on his fingers and spread it evenly on the wound. He was very careful, afraid of hurting her again.
And then...
His fingers moved down again...
Shu Nian was obviously going to refuse, but when his fingers touched her, she felt like she was hit by an electric current and her whole body went limp. And as if possessed by a demon, her hands holding the clothes unconsciously loosened a little. This allowed his fingers to smoothly pull the collar down from the back.
