Li Shunan soon came out with a box of medical supplies. At the same time, he switched on the light under the roof and the courtyard had clearly become much brighter.

Seeing that he had come out, Jiang Lingzhi retracted her hand even though she was about to press the call-back button. She then placed her cellphone back into her backpack and stood up straight.

Li Shunan walked over and glanced at the chair behind her. “Sit.”

His tone was extremely lazy, perhaps because he was tired. He would never speak more than what was required.

“Okay.” Jiang Lingzhi took two steps back, sat down on the chair, and when she looked up again, he had already placed the ointment in front of her.

His beautiful hand was bony, and his skin was fair.

Jiang Lingzhi took the ointment from his hand and looked up at him. “Thank you.”

“You think?” Li Shunan sneered and continued, “How can a little kid judge a stranger well?”

Jiang Lingzhi remained silent.

‘Why does he insist that I’m a little kid?’

The boy did not seem to want to hear her answer. Instead, he slowly pulled a piece of gauze from the box of medical supplies and raised his hand to press the gauze onto her fair knee.

He was not exactly gentle with her. Jiang Lingzhi gasped and quickly blew on the wound on her knee. “Why did you apply so much force? It hurts.”

Li Shunan looked down and stared at her with an insincere smile and a puzzled gaze. “I thought you’d think I’m too gentle..”
