“Don’t look. Don’t look at me. Put me down!” Su Qianxun covered her face frantically. She had become a hideous monster now. The sight of her own face disgusted her. It would certainly repel him too.
Long Sijue barely had time to think about her appearance right at this moment. He immediately carried her into the helicopter. Ye Gu did not know what was going on. He looked at the two of them anxiously.
“Head back right now.”
Ye Gu immediately controlled the helicopter and slowly took to the air.
Su Qianxun felt an awful itch all over her body, but she did not dare to put down her hands, for her face was too hideous.
Long Sijue looked at the huge, red blotches on her hands and body. He immediately tried to pull her hands off her face.
“No. Don’t look. I’m so ugly. I don’t want you to see me.” Su Qianxun refused to put down her hands no matter what.
Hearing what Su Qianxun said, Ye Gu instinctively turned his head and looked at the backseat. While he was distracted, the helicopter tilted slightly. Long Sijue and Su Qianxun almost fell out of their seats, and Su Qianxun lowered her hands
Staring at her face, Long Sijue’s heart nearly stopped beating. Her whole face was reddened and swollen—even the skin around her eyes. She no longer looked like herself.
Su Qianxun’s gaze met his. She saw the shock in his eyes and immediately wanted to cover her face again. Long Sijue quickly grabbed her hands and said, “Don’t move. Come with me.”
Long Sijue knew well that it was not an allergic reaction. She was most likely poisoned. He carried Su Qianxun into the bathroom and told her, “Wash your face with cold water… don’t be afraid. I’m here. I would not let anything bad happen to you.”
After Long Sijue said that, he turned and left the bathroom for a moment. He went to grab some ice cubes from the fridge. He also took out some medicinal powder while instructing Ye Gu to head to the hospital right away.
When he returned to the bathroom, Long Sijue immediately poured the ice cubes into the bathtub, added the medicinal powder and stirred the mixture.
When Long Sijue got up, he saw that the young woman was in an uncontrollable frenzy. Just as she was about to scratch her face, he seized her hands and said, “Do not scratch your face!”
“Itchy. It’s so itchy.” Tears kept trickling down Su Qianxun’s face.
“I know it would be very itchy, but if you scratch and tear your skin. You’d be disfigured. Get into the bathtub first!” Long Sijue lifted her in his arms and put her into the ice water of the bathtub.
Bone-chilling water engulfed her. The young woman broke down crying and immediately wanted to climb out. As much as he did not want to, Long Sijue shoved her back into the water.
“Xun’er, listen to me. Sitting in the water could suppress the venom in your body temporarily. Hang in there for a while.”
Su Qianxun was too upset to listen to him. She kept trying to climb out of the bathtub or scratch her face, so Long Sijue got into the bathtub as well. He held her in his arms tightly.
“It’s so itchy. Let go of me. Don’t hold me back. Let me scratch my face.” Su Qianxun was in such a panic that she could not stop crying.
“Hang it there a little longer. We’ll be arriving at the hospital very soon.” Long Sijue held her tightly and restrained her arms.
With Long Sijue’s constant encouragement, Su Qianxun tried her best to suppress the urge to scratch her cheeks. A few minutes passed, and she finally felt better. The medicine must have taken effect and the iced water relieved the itch.
Long Sijue kept washing her face with water, hoping that the itch on her face would lessen.
Su Qianxun suddenly realized that she was not covering her face anymore. Flustered, she turned away so that he would not see her.
“Turn your face to me.” Long Sijue touched her cheek gently.
“No. I’m very ugly now. I don’t want you to see me.” Su Qianxun’s voice was filled with fear and helplessness.
“Silly girl, you’re not ugly at all. You’re very beautiful.” Long Sijue placed his hand on her cheeks and slowly turned her face towards him.
