Before Huangfu Xuanye could reply, Ying Bao had already picked up the fruit knife and started to peel the apple.
Huangfu Xuanye could not help but worry when he saw the little girl cutting the apple with her knife. He was afraid that she would cut his hand.
It was Huangfu Xuanye’s first time seeing Ying Bao peel an apple. The hand that she was holding the knife with was trembling a little. Instead of calling it peeling an apple, it would be more accurate to say that she had a grudge against an apple. With one slice, a huge pit was formed.
“If you don’t know how to do it, let me do it!” Huangfu Xuanye could not stand it anymore.
“It’s okay, I can do it! I have to practice more! My parents never let me touch knives but I have to grow up and do things by myself. I can’t always rely on them for everything.”
Ying Bao said as she peeled the apple.
She was probably traumatized by the experience of being kidnapped when she was young. She could not help but tremble whenever she touched a knife hand all these years.
She knew that it was a psychological problem. She had always wanted to overcome it.
Huangfu Xuanye did not let Ying Bao do it. Instead, he leaned over and directly sucked on her bloody finger.
Ying Bao widened her eyes in shock at his sudden action. Her sore fingers were quickly enveloped by a moist and warm touch.
“Uncle...”
Ying Bao was actually a little embarrassed. She wanted to pull her hand back, but Huangfu Xuanye did not let her go.
After a few minutes, he took out her finger. When he looked at the wound again, it was no longer bleeding. The thin wound had already closed up.
“Alright, the bleeding has stopped,” Huangfu Xuanye said seriously, not thinking about anything else. Ying Bao, on the other hand, was blushing because of the contact.
Huangfu Xuanye was focused on her finger and did not notice the change in her expression. At this moment, a nurse came in and he asked the nurse to bring him a band-aid and an alcohol cotton ball.
The nurse brought it over to him, and he carefully wiped Ying Bao’s wound with an alcohol swab before putting a band-aid on it.
He raised his head and noticed that her face was as red as a cooked shrimp. “Cherry, what’s wrong?”
“Tm fine now.” Ying Bao finally pulled her hand back and shook her head.
Huangfu Xuanye did not notice the change in her mentality. He only told her, “Don’t try to act tough next time. Your parents refuse to let you touch the knife because they’re worried that you would hurt yourself. Now the facts have proven that you really can’t touch a knife casually.”
