Chapter 594: Chapter 596, Tianci’s Thoughts
Yun Jinnian hoped it was not so.
Reconnecting blood vessels was delicate work that she had never done before.
The Elder of Wood and the Elder of Earth were getting on in years, and their eyesight was not as good as Yun Jinnian’s, so she watched carefully,
The blood flowed copiously; as she continued to look closely, her hands, her clothes, her face were all covered in blood. Despite the filth, she appeared exceptionally pure.
Chu Yu arrived and just stood at a distance, quietly watching.
A Yun Jinnian so earnest, to a man, was deeply respectable.
If two people were together, even without love, that alone would command a lifetime of admiration, daring not to act frivolously before her.
"The blood vessels are not broken!"
After speaking, Yun Jinnian took a silver needle to stop the bleeding on Chu Xinchun, while the Elder of Wood sprinkled the wound-healing medicine on Chu Xinchun’s wound.
The rest, like bandaging, was something Yun Jinnian could largely leave alone, hoping that the Elder of Wood and the Elder of Earth would manage the deep bone wound on Chu Xinchun’s face and the snapped tendons in his foot.
Once the bleeding stopped and the needle was withdrawn,
Mo Li walked up to Yun Jinnian, knelt on one knee, but said not a word.
Yun Jinnian glanced at him but said nothing, sighed, and left the room, only to see an exuberant Chu Yu, looking at her with a silly, admiring smile.
"You came!"
"Yes, I’ve been here a while. How is cousin Xinchun now?" Chu Yu asked softly, seeing Yun Jinnian covered in blood, his heart ached terribly.
"He should pull through. I will give him another acupuncture session soon; whether he survives depends on his luck now!"
"You’ve worked hard!"
"It’s nothing!"
When had the two of them become so courteous to each other?
Meeting each other’s gaze, they both laughed.
"I’ll go bathe and change first. You go in and see him!" Yun Jinnian said.
"Alright!"
Yun Jinnian went to bathe and change with Hemei and Henuan, while Chu Yu entered the house. Chu Xinchun had been bandaged and laid in bed, his face pale and his condition seeming very poor.
He ultimately didn’t voice his concerns about whether Chu Xinchun could survive.
Seeing Chu Xinchun’s Hidden Guard standing aside, silent, he patted his shoulder, "He’ll get better. He is, after all, Tianchu Country’s youngest god of war!"
Mo Li remained silent.
Chu Yu exhaled and turned to a silent Han Tianci, "What are you standing there for?"
Upon hearing this, Han Tianci raised his eyes, "Big Brother Chu?"
"Hmm?"
"Am I very useless? I couldn’t help my sister at all before!" Han Tianci said, sounding very defeated.
Especially after seeing his sister so calmly cut away the necrotic flesh, then extract those tiny barbs, getting herself covered in blood.
He thought she would feel revulsion, would frown, but unexpectedly, she didn’t even furrow her brow, seemingly indifferent.
Chu Yu chuckled, ruffling Han Tianci’s hair, and drawing him along to walk outside, "Your sister is what she is today because she has suffered immeasurable hardships, endured countless tribulations to build herself up; it has not been easy for her!"
Han Tianci stopped in his tracks, looking at Chu Yu, "Big Brother Chu, do you know about the hard times my sister went through in the past?"
"Yes, I know a bit!"
"Then will you tell me about it?"
Chu Yu did not expect Han Tianci to ask at this time, but after thinking a bit, he answered, "Sure, let’s find a nice place to talk properly!"
"Alright!"
Han Tianci led Chu Yu to pull weeds and check for bugs in the medicinal garden.
When he first came to the Capital City, he didn’t particularly like the city, nor the Han Residence. Later, he grew fond of the Capital City, only because there was a young lady who would watch him with gentle and smiling eyes, who didn’t constrain or chide him, but would show him, through her actions, what he could and couldn’t do. Even if he made mistakes, she wouldn’t mock him, only firmly support him while he started all over again...
