Shi Nuannuan got out of the bathtub to grab her clothes.
Just as she did, her wet feet slipped on the floor and she fell.
“Ah!” She cried out in shock. She was in so much pain that tears were coming out of her eyes. “It hurts so much…”
Ever since she was young, she rarely got hurt, so she was very afraid of pain.
Outside the bathroom door, Xiangyi heard a thud followed by her scream. He could not help but feel anxious and was about to push the door open to enter!
However, on second thought, his hand that was holding the doorknob suddenly stopped. He knew that she was naked in the bathroom at that moment.
The hand that was holding the doorknob tightened, suppressing the impulse in his heart. “Nuannuan, what’s wrong?”
Shi Nuannuan was in so much pain that tears filled her eyes as she sat on the bathroom floor. After a long while, she finally got up from the floor and said to Xiangyi, “I’m fine…”
She looked at her palm. It had been scratched with some traces of blood.
“Are you really fine?” He still felt anxious and uneasy when he heard her strained voice. He wanted to rush in immediately, but in the end he could only endure it!
“I…” Shi Nuannuan looked at her scratched hand, not knowing what to do next.
She also knew that Xiangyi would definitely not be able to come in since she was not wearing any clothes.
Strange, in the novel, wouldn’t the male protagonist rush in regardless? Why didn’t Xiangyi rush in?
Wait, why did she make it sound like she wanted Xiangyi to see her naked body?
“Ugh… it hurts…” The pain pulled her back to her senses as she furrowed her brows tightly. On the other side of the door, Xiangyi was still anxiously waiting for her response.
Suddenly, it became silent, which only made him extremely anxious. If she did not make a sound, he might really break in!
“Nuannuan?!” There was clearly a sense of anxiety in his voice!
Shi Nuannuan looked in the direction of the door, then glanced at the wet clothes she had taken off.
Enduring the pain, she walked to the side and picked up the clothes. Then, she walked to the door, opened the door a crack, and handed the clothes out.
Xiangyi saw her hand stretch out and finally felt relieved that she was fine.
“Are you okay?”
Shi Nuannuan paused for a moment. This small injury should mean that she was fine to Xiangyi, right?
If she said that her hand was injured, would he think that she was overreacting?
Thinking about it, she said, “I’m fine.”
Hearing that, Xiangyi took the wet clothes from her.
He closed the door again. Due to the injury on her hand, Shi Nuannuan did not know what to do for a moment.
She could not find any bandages in the bathroom. More importantly, with the injury on her hand, she did not know how she was going to finish the shower.
She decided not to in the end. She walked to the shower and prepared to rinse herself with warm water before wiping off with a dry towel.
“Ah!”
She had just turned on the faucet but she had been a little absent-minded as she turned it the wrong way. Cold water splashed down on her, making her feel as if she was in an ice cellar.
Xiangyi drying her wet clothes with a hairdryer before hearing her scream again from the bathroom.
Xiang Yi, who had been suppressing his previous worry, lost his rationality after hearing her scream. He rushed into the bathroom immediately. “Nuannuan?!”
