After dispelling the awkwardness, Mu Ke took out a dicine box, found a bottle of dicinal liquor from it, and applied it to Jiayu. He rubbed it forcefully, and although Jiayu hadn’t felt any pain before, Mu Ke’s rubbing made tears well up in her eyes.
But the man seed to have no pity at all, his hands were very strong. Although he knew that dicinal liquor had to be rubbed like this to be effective, it was too painful.
With tears in her eyes, Jiayu looked at Mu Ke, unable to bear it any longer, and squeezed out a word: "Pain..."
Mu Ke’s expression was a bit sour, and he spat out two cold words: "Endure it."
Jiayu imdiately fell silent. Well, they had reconciled, but it didn’t an he wasn’t still angry.
Mu Ke still wore that cold, sour expression, but the strength in his hands did indeed lighten a lot.
After finishing with Jiayu, he carefully checked again to make sure everything was fine, then slowly tidied up the dicine box. Jiayu watched as Mu Ke neatly arranged each item, and couldn’t help but reflect on herself.
In fact, the reason she had such a comprehensive dicine box here was from when she first t Mu Ke; he had given it to her.
Jiayu used to think she was quite feminine, but now she realized that she wasn’t nearly as ticulous as this man.
Mu Ke put the dicine box away, turned to Jiayu, and said, "Alright, I’m going back now, you should rest early."
Jiayu glanced at the night outside and checked the ti. It was already very late, and although it wasn’t far from her place to Mu Ke’s apartnt, a thought quickly flashed through her mind, and the words were out: "You should rest here, it’s very late."
Saying this was too suggestive, Jiayu’s cheeks couldn’t help but heat up. Mu Ke looked at her and didn’t refuse.
Because it was really too late, and he had had a little to drink tonight, not much, but running around in the cold wind made his head hurt a bit now.
After all, these suggestive words often lead to sothing afterwards, but with today’s atmosphere and situation, nothing suggestive was likely to happen.
As before, Mu Ke lay on Jiayu’s European-style sofa. For a big man, it was a bit small, but it was okay. Jiayu brought him a blanket and quilt from the bedroom before lying down herself.
The spot on her hand where the dicinal liquor was rubbed felt a bit hot, and the sll of the liquor still lingered in the air. Jiayu couldn’t sleep, she raised her hand, quietly looked at the back of it, and suddenly smiled.
——
On the second day of the New Year, the sun was shining brightly. Due to insomnia for most of the night, when Jiayu woke up, it was almost eleven o’clock.
She jumped up from the bed, and the bruised mark on the back of her hand was still there, but it didn’t hurt much anymore, and the sll of the dicinal liquor had faded.
Jiayu got out of bed to wash up in the bathroom. At the bedroom door, she stopped and quietly opened a crack. She could see the living room outside, the sofa was tidy, and the blanket and quilt were folded neatly.
No one was there, but sounds were coming from sowhere, Mu Ke seed to be on the phone.
Jiayu shrank back again, went into the bathroom to wash up. Because she hadn’t slept well, there were heavy dark circles under her eyes, even more noticeable after washing her face.
Her gaze swept over a row of costics nearby. Jiayu picked up a concealer and carefully covered up the dark circles, hmm, much better.
