Inside the suitcase, apart from her change of clothes and other things, Xiao Qiao also brought some of Wei Shao’s clothes. She helped Wei Shao sit up and undress. When she removed his undershirt, she saw his wounded arm where the flesh gouged. Although the swelling had subsided, it was still shocking. Without anesthesia, one can imagine how painful it was.

Xiao Qiao felt her heart aching.

“Does it still hurt?” She asked as she wrung the soft towel and wiped this side of his arm for him.

“It still hurts a little.” Wei Shao said. It was not entirely a lie. If you hit it, it does still hurt.

Xiao Qiao frowned slightly, carefully avoiding the wound, and helped him wipe his arm. She also wiped his upper body. After changing the water and the towel, she handed the towel to him while glancing at the lower part of his body, signaling him to do it himself.

Wei Shao spread both hands like he was disabled and remained motionless while looking at her.

“Wipe it yourself. Isn’t your other hand still fine?” Xiao Qiao turned her head sideways.

Although they had been together for more than a year, Xiao Qiao was still ashamed to be naked in front of him and felt more embarrassed to look closely at his part for no reason.

Unlike him, shameless.

Wei Shao was expecting surprises but found that she was the same as usual. When it came to the critical point, she gave up and asked him to do it himself. After a while, Xiao Qiao heard him sigh and lazily said, “Okay.” He turned around and reached for the towel. But he threw it into the water regardless of the splash. He pulled her lightly, and she fell on his lap.

Xiao Qiao was stunned and looked up at him. He cupped her face with his hands. He kissed her on the lips and expertly pressed her onto the narrow army bed.

Xiao Qiao was unprepared and squirmed under him a few times, indicating she refused. But soon, she meekly opened her lips to let him kiss. After a while, he grabbed one of her hands and pressed it toward the lower part of his body. Xiao Qiao hastily refused: “You are not healed yet, no.”

Wei Shao’s emotions were so strong that he was panting: “I’m fine.”

“I know you’re not fine!”

“I’m really fine!”

“Don’t lie to me! When I say no, I mean no!” Xiao Qiao drew back her hand forcefully.

Wei Shao stopped.

Xiao Qiao saw he remained still and was gloomy. She thought she seemed a bit harsh and felt guilty, so she gently pushed his shoulder and softly said in his ear: “Listen! I am doing this for you. This time your body really can’t take it. I’ll be angry if you don’t listen to me!”

She coaxed and told him to behave! Wei Shao felt his body’s blood surging, and embraced the warmth of her soft body while saying: “I listen to you …… but I am so uncomfortable …… if you do not believe it, touch it …… help me to release it, I will be fine after I release it…… I promise not to do anything else ……”

Xiao Qiao felt a dilemma.She came here to take care of his body. She should not go along with his nonsense. But seeing his handsome face with an uncomfortable and painful expression, she couldn’t bear it. Not sure what she did to stir up such a big fire in him that could not go down.

She hesitated for a moment: “Fine, then, just release it once……”

Wei Shao nodded without hesitation and did not even blink: “Okay! I’ll just let it out once!”

……

Wei Shao, this big liar! She will never trust him again!

The next day, during the fifth period, with the morning sun still faintly visible outside, Xiao Qiao was awakened by the piercing sound of the rhinoceros horn outside the tent. She opened her eyes confusedly to find herself pressed tightly under Wei Shao on the side of the narrow army bed, half of her body hanging outside. She was still holding on and not falling because Wei Shao’s leg pressed on her stomach. The pressure made her back sore, like being run over by a wheel.

Last night, she did not know how many times they did it. She used his weakness as a reason but still could not stop him, even if her words bore anger. Finally, he forced her to sit on top of him. All these are nothing. The most important was, how could she meet people today?

She swore she had worked hard to hold back and tried not to make a discordant sound. She even covered Wei Shao’s mouth several times to block him from making a disturbing sound. But when she thought about the soundproof effect of the tent made of cowhide, she felt deflated in her heart.

The only thing that relieved her was the surrounding area of the tent was empty last night. The distance of the nearest tent was about ten feet. Hopefully, everyone was asleep without listening with their ears open.

Xiao Qiao gritted her teeth and wanted to push Wei Shao’s heavy leg off her body when his arm reached over and wrapped around her. They huddled together.

Wei Shao slowly opened his eyes, intertwined with hers.

In the hazy morning ray, his eyes were bright like starlight.

“I’m so much better now that you’re here.” He sighed while moving his head toward her, gently rubbing his chin, which had a new layer of stubble, against her warm forehead, with his slightly hoarse voice.
