Guan Zijue was speechless. Gu Yiâan made it sound like he was the one on the moral high ground when he was the one who literally tore the bedroom apart.
Whatever. Iâll just leave him be since heâs staying here anyway.
âIâd like to take a nap. May I trouble Great Doctor Gu to help me out here?â
Guan Zijue felt something amiss when Gu Yiâan glanced at him, and in the very next second, Guan Zijue was being lifted into Gu Yiâanâs arms.
Guan Zijue wanted to murder him. I know Iâm injured but you donât have to carry me like that!, he thought.
Gu Yiâan was delighted when he saw the horrified expression on Guan Zijue.
He carried Guan Zijue to the bed and said, âBe good and focus on your recovery! Iâll take good care of you!â
Iâd be too annoyed to recover well if he carries me around like that all the time.
As if he could hear Guan Zijueâs thoughts, Gu Yiâan smiled and said, âYou just have to get used to this!â
Guan Zijue grabbed the pillow beside him and threw it at Gu Yiâan.
Gu Yiâan laughed and continued teasing him, âDonât get angry, itâs not good for you!â
He threw the pillow back at Guan Zijue, who had no idea what to do with this man in front of him.
Gu Yiâan seemed to be in a great mood after teasing Guan Zijue.
âIâm going to prepare dinner now. I guarantee itâll be healthy and yummy!â
Guan Zijue shut his eyes as he thought about everything that happened. None of them had spoken about the time in America, as if they had already agreed not to discuss it.
According to his investigations, Gu Yiâan was Pingan, and from how Gu Yiâan reacted, it seemed to only confirm this.
After about an hour or so, he heard Gu Yiâanâs footsteps near the door.
He quickly sat up and got out of bed. I wonât let him carry me like that again. Heâs only making fun of me anyway.
When Gu Yiâan saw Guan Zijue climbing out of bed as he entered, he rushed forward to pick Guan Zijue up again.
My gosh, thereâs no way to escape from this guy.?Instead of murdering Gu Yiâan, Guan Zijue now wanted to kill himself.
Gu Yiâan carried him all the way to the dining table and looked at him sternly.
âGuan Zijue, stop being so stubborn. What if your leg doesnât heal well? You might not be able to take part in those high intensity trainings in future. What do you think youâre doing?â
Is it that serious?, wondered Guan Zijue as he eyed Gu Yiâan with suspicion.
âDonât look at me like that. Youâre not a woman so why would I be taking advantage of you? Stop overthinking it. All I want is for you to heal well. Donât blame me if there are long-term side effects because youâre the one being stubborn!â
Annoyed, he then sat down and started eating.
What Gu Yiâan said reminded Guan Zijue of what happened the other night in his apartment. Feeling slightly awkward at this, he began eating silently.
Gu Yiâan had actually prepared a wheelchair for Guan Zijue as well. After dinner, Gu Yiâan helped Guan Zijue onto the wheelchair and the latter pushed himself back into his room.
Gu Yiâan wondered if he had been too harsh with his words earlier. However, he couldnât help but get angry when he saw how bad Guan Zijue was at taking care of himself.
After cleaning up the dining table in frustration, he saw Guan Zijue still sitting on the wheelchair when he returned to his room.
He went up to Guan Zijue as he thought it was because Guan Zijue was unable to climb into bed. But when he approached, Guan Zijue said, âHelp me get a caregiver!â
âWhat do you need a caregiver for when Iâm here? Think your room is still too big and want to restructure it again?â
âA caregiver can help me with all the daily chores so you can focus on helping me recover!â
âNo way!â Gu Yiâan retorted instantly.
After a moment, he asked, âJust tell me what you need help with. I might be able to help!â
âI want to take a shower. Can you help me with that?â
âOf course. Weâre both men, so I wonât be taken advantage of by you. You might be the one taken advantage of if we get a woman to help with this!â
Guan Zijue creased his brows at this.?What do you mean Iâll be the one whoâs going to be taken advantage of?
âWhatever. Are you going to help me with it or not!â
He felt extremely grubby after having gone without a shower for two days now.
He should be thinking about recovery instead of taking a shower now!, thought Gu Yiâan.
He then said, âLetâs go. Iâll push you in and help you clean up!â
Being deep in thought, Guan Zijue was silent. He had initially planned to return to his camp after a month or so, but with the accident, he would probably have had to take a leave of about two to three months instead. Just like what Gu Yiâan said earlier, he was also worried that there might be lingering side effects if his injuries do not heal well.
Gu Yiâan sighed.?Iâm talking to the air. What is he thinking about now?
He coughed to remind Guan Zijue of his presence. Guan Zijue looked up and asked, âWhat?â
âI said Iâll push you in for your shower. Didnât you hear that?â
âI heard it now!â
Slightly annoyed at this, a mischievous glint appeared in Gu Yiâanâs eyes.
He turned to look for something in the nearby toolbox and walked towards Guan Zijue with the pair of scissors he found.
Guan Zijue frowned in confusion. âWhat are you doing?â
Gu Yiâan smirked. âTake a guess?â
Why does he look so creepy when holding that pair of scissors?
What is he planning? He wonât kill me, would he?
Gu Yiâan reached for his trousers with that pair of scissors.
Guan Zijueâs expression darkened as he threw a punch at Gu Yiâan.
Gu Yiâan reacted quickly and stopped the punch in midair. âRelax! I havenât even started!â
Guan Zijue could only watch as Gu Yiâan cut his trouser legs and turned it into a pair of shorts.
Gu Yiâan looked at his creation proudly after he was done.
âOK! Done! Iâll avoid the injury later, but youâll be able to clean up better like that!â
Guan Zijue could feel his temples pulsating as he watched Gu Yiâanâs expression of satisfaction. I really want to wipe that smile off his face!
As Gu Yiâan pushed Guan Zijue into the bathroom, he said, âYouâll have to sit in the wheelchair since you refuse to let me carry you. Donât be too stubborn though. I still have tons of tricks up my sleeve!â
Guan Zijue stared at him as Gu Yiâan laughed.
Gu Yiâan turned on the tap in the bathtub and turned around to get a clean towel, but he realized that Guan Zijue was frozen in place when he turned back.
âBro, how am I going to wipe your body with your top still on!â
What! He wants to wipe my body?
âIâm guessing you want to go under the shower, right?â He then walked to the bathtub so that he could switch the water flow to the shower head.
Guan Zijue shot a cold glance at him and removed his top quickly, revealing a perfectly sculpted chest.
Gu Yiâan paused to look at Guan Zijueâs figure, finding himself getting a little warmer.
He swallowed his saliva and turned to wet the towel.
