Inside the car.

Chi Ming looked at Shen Qingyue's obviously injured leg & the visible wound on her forehead. He gripped the steering wheel tightly, feeling a tightness in his chest. "What's going on?"

Shen Qingyue casually replied, "Just a minor issue, let's drive." She didn't want to involve Chi Ming too much. This Bai Juhua had caused her trouble today, & she would not let her get away with it.

Chi Ming hesitated to speak but ultimately said nothing. He started the car without further ado.

Shen Qingyue continued, "Tonight, I'll stay at ur place... I don't want Grandpa to see..."

"Alright." Chi Ming remained silent. Originally, he should have been excited about bringing Shen Qingyue to his home, but under the current circumstances, he couldn't find any reason to smile.

Upon reaching their destination, Chi Ming got out of the car 1st & directly lifted Shen Qingyue up.

Shen Qingyue struggled, "I can walk!"

"Don't move." Chi Ming's tone was low.

Shen Qingyue looked at his serious face & couldn't help but smirk, "It's really nothing serious, you're being too nervous. From the way you're acting, one would think I've had my limbs amputated." She had been cornered by a group of people tonight, got injured, & was pushed by Qin Zhen. She was also feeling annoyed, but seeing Chi Ming like this inexplicably made her feel a bit comfortable. Perhaps she had some strange quirks?

Chi Ming didn't answer her & instead placed her on the sofa in the house.

He then went to get the 1st aid kit & carefully applied medicine to her. Shen Qingyue saw his serious expression & couldn't help but exaggerate,

"Ouch... It hurts so much..

Chi Ming's hand paused, his voice muffled, "I'm sorry..."

Shen Qingyue suppressed her laughter, "I can do it myself."

"I'll do it." Chi Ming resolutely refused her outstretched hand & continued to carefully apply the medicine.

He was applying medicine to her forehead, so they were very close. She looked at his tense & furrowed brows, felt his breath, & for some reason, her cheeks turned slightly red, so she turned her head to the side.

"Don't move!" Chi Ming reached out & adjusted her head. After tending to her forehead, he put her leg on the coffee table, lifted the hem of her suit pants, & looked at the bruise. His expression turned dark again.

Being stared at like this made Shen Qingyue feel a little embarrassed. She said,

"It's nothing, it'll be fine in a couple of days. No need for medicine."

Chi Ming didn't say anything & continued to apply the medicine. Then he said, "I'll go prepare some water for u to take a shower. After that, I'll apply the medicine again."

"Fine." Although Shen Qingyue felt a little disappointed, she didn't insist. After taking a shower & seeing the clothes that Chi Ming had already prepared, perfectly sized for her, it was evident that this guy had planned everything in advance. & at this moment, she realized that tonight, in this place, it was just the 2 of them! She had taken the initiative... Was this what being favored felt like? So she instinctively chose him? Knowing that he would be tolerant?

Shen Qingyue shook her head, touched her damp hair, & prepared to find a hairdryer. But after searching for a while, she couldn't find it. She went to find Chi Ming instead. Seeing that the bedroom door was slightly open, she didn't enter directly but knocked & asked him.
