Su Wan’s happiness was completely flushed away by these words.

She lowered her head. “Got it.”

After getting an affirmative answer, Jing Chen was satisfied and brought Su Wan back home.

As soon as she came back, Su Wan brought the medicine to the bathroom under Jing Chen’s gaze and stayed inside for a long time.

Jing Chen sat on the bed impatiently. Can’t this woman ask him for help if she couldn’t handle it?

He put on his slippers with a black face, walked over, knocked on the door, in one go.

Su Wan’s careful voice came from inside. “I’m sorry, I might need a while more. Bear with it for a while longer.”

“I can’t take it anymore. Open the door!”

The moment Jing Chen finished speaking, the door of the washroom opened with a click.

Su Wan walked out and gestured for him to go first.

But Jing Chen took the medicine from her hand and lifted her shirt. “Pull it up yourself.”

Su Wan let out a cry of surprise and reflexively wanted to cover her bare skin. She did not wear anything in front…

In order to make it easier to apply the medicine, she decided to take it off. It was about time to change it.

Who would have thought that Jing Chen had asked her to open the door so that he could apply medicine for her?!

She did try her best to apply it to her back. She had a small frame and was very thin. It was just that she had to put in some effort. It was not that she could not apply it.

…

Jing Chen rubbed her back gently with his warm hand and applied the cold ointment evenly.

It should have been a cool touch, but for some reason, the temperature on her body increased instead.

Su Wan held her breath, but she could not stop her body from trembling.

Her back started to itch for some reason. Jing Chen had applied it too gently, and the soft itch rushed to her brain, making her shiver.

She groaned, her face flushed, her jaw clenched.

Naturally, Jing Chen noticed it. He quietly fanned it with his hand. Seeing that the ointment had been absorbed, he put down her clothes.

He teased, “Your body is much more honest than you are. Go lie down on the bed.”

Su Wan’s eyes widened in disbelief. “What?”

It was so late! She was still sick!

Was he still thinking about doing that again?

“What do you want? Aren’t you going to sleep?” Jing Chen tilted his head and teased her.

It was as if Su Wan was facing a formidable enemy, she fled and hid under the covers.

Jing Chen watched the whole process. Telling from his expression, he looked much happier.

After turning off the lights, Jing Chen laid down beside Su Wan. Although they were on the same bed, they did not touch each other.

This bed was indeed big enough for both of them to sleep comfortably.

Early in the morning.

When Su Wan woke up, she saw Jing Chen sizing her up the moment she opened her eyes. She immediately widened her eyes and scooted out strategically.

Jing Chen’s face darkened and he reached out to pull her back.

“Get out of bed and buy a present for Grandpa. It’s in a few days.”

With that, he got up to wash up.

Su Wan’s state of mind was still unsettled and she tried to regain it for a long time. She touched her stomach, but it didn’t show at all. Only then did she move.

They chose to go to the Jiuxin International Business Building.

There were all kinds of brands here, ranging from mid-tier to luxury goods. The middle-tier and high-tier consumer areas were clearly divided.

You could go to whichever area you needed to.

The area where the luxury goods were was relatively deserted.

Just as they entered the first shop, a woman came out. Jing Chen stopped in his tracks when he saw her.

The woman was sitting in a wheelchair. When she saw Jing Chen, she looked up and smiled brightly. “What a coincidence to meet you! Is this telepathy? Did you know that I was missing you? Is that why you appeared in front of me?!”

Su Wan recognized her. This woman was Bai Lian.

This bright and beautiful face matched perfectly with the face in the video. It was just that the wheelchair…

In her memory, Bai Lian was standing in the video.

Jing Chen laughed. “Didn’t I tell you? If you need anything, just let me know. I’ll definitely help you settle it. Why did you come out yourself?”

Bai Lian shook her head and smiled. “I have to buy grandpa’s gift personally to show my sincerity.”

With that said, she looked distressed and continued, “You came at the right time. Can you come with me to take a look? I want to give something that Grandfather likes so that Grandfather will be happy.”

Jing Chen agreed without hesitation.

Su Wan, who was standing at the side, saw everything. He did not care about her feelings at all.

He was the one who brought her here to buy a gift, yet he abandoned her before they even started.

Bai Lian was obviously very happy.

Bai Lian was about to speak when she suddenly paused. She turned her head slightly and said to the person who was pushing her wheelchair, “Assistant Lin, bring me my water. I’m a little thirsty..”
