Chapter 7: Chapter 7 Ouch, it hurts so much!

Gu Moqian was worried that Ji Wei's head would hit the corner of the bed, so he quickly reached out to shield her head.

But in the next second, he heard Ji Wei cry out in pain, "Ah—"

Her previous movement had been too forceful, causing the wound on her wrist to split open again, making her cry out in agony.

The moment Gu Moqian heard her cry out, he sat up abruptly and grabbed her wrist. He saw that the bandages wrapped around it were already soaked through with small spots of blood.

His sharply defined brows furrowed slightly. Seeing her reddened eyes brimming with tears, his heart softened. He clasped her small, delicate hand firmly and said, "Wait here for a moment, I'll go get the first-aid kit."

Ji Wei stared dazedly as he got out of bed, opened the door, and walked out.

The pain jolted her awake, and she suddenly realized what the two of them had almost done just now.

Thinking about how she had shamelessly thrown herself into Gu Moqian's arms, Ji Wei's face flushed bright red in an instant.

She covered her burning cheeks in embarrassment for a moment and then suddenly grabbed a nearby towel, rushing straight into the bathroom.

It was the middle of the night, and the servants in the villa were all asleep. Gu Moqian went downstairs, found the backup first-aid kit, and quickly returned to the bedroom.

When he pushed open the door, he found that Ji Wei was no longer on the bed.

His deep eyes flickered with a trace of surprise, but then he heard a clattering noise coming from the bathroom. Putting the first-aid kit down, he walked over in quick strides.
