Clinging to Devoted Fiancé, Heiress Slays the World!

Chapter 8: Chapter 8 Haven't Slept Again, Why Take the Blame?

Gu Moqian's hand holding the cotton swab paused, seeing her brows knit tightly in pain, he suddenly couldn't bring himself to continue.

"It's okay, I can endure it." Seeing his hand stop, Ji Wei bit her lower lip, her voice trembling slightly.

Though she said she could endure it, her uneasy, wandering gaze still betrayed her.

Gu Moqian hesitated, then put the cotton swab down.

"Really, it's fine. You can go on." Ji Wei, at this moment, started to act tough. She didn't want Gu Moqian to think she was being overly fragile.

"Not scared anymore?"

"Not scared!"

Ji Wei put on a resolute expression.

To divert her attention, Ji Wei found a topic: "Gu Moqian, how do you know how to do these things?"

In her impression, as the heir of Rongcheng's number one elite family, Gu Moqian should be someone removed from the mundane concerns of life.

Whatever he did should be accompanied by a crowd of people, rather than being this... versatile, even knowing how to disinfect and bandage wounds.

Thinking back, it seemed she was the one more spoiled, growing up as a pampered young lady taken care of by others. If she was thirsty, a servant would automatically bring her water. If she was hungry, she only had to say a word. Even if she accidentally got a small cut, Old Madam Ji would hold her in distress for half a day.

If she were thrown into a group and left to live alone, she probably wouldn't even have basic self-care skills.

"When I was a child, I lived in the countryside for a while." Gu Moqian paused slightly, his tone calm as he replied.

Countryside?

Why would the dignified heir of the Gu Family live in the countryside? What had he experienced in his childhood?

Tss~

Before Ji Wei could make sense of it, the pain in her wrist surged again. This time, she endured without crying out, but her brows furrowed tightly.
