Chapter 34 - 34 34 Sweet Punishment

34: Chapter 34: Sweet Punishment 34: Chapter 34: Sweet Punishment Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio Bo Jingshen had always remembered how much she enjoyed eating small crabs.

Even though he couldn’t understand what was so delicious about those crustaceans, it didn’t stop him from feeling bad about not being able to buy big crabs for his beloved girl when he was broke.

Now he had money.

So, eat!

Eat big ones!

Are two enough?

Su Lu didn’t want to argue with him.

Bo Jingshen was very stubborn, and it was usually hard to change his mind.

“You have a class reunion tonight, right?

I remember you said at Old Zou’s house yesterday that you’d go to the reunion.”

Su Lu suddenly remembered this.

“Oh right,” Bo Jingshen replied.

What do you mean, “oh right”?

Su Lu was speechless.

He had completely forgotten about it.

If she didn’t remind him, he’d have missed it.

“Then it’s just right, you go to the reunion.”

“What about you?” Bo Jingshen suddenly felt a bit annoyed.

He wished he hadn’t agreed to Old Zou’s gathering yesterday.

“I’ll take the project team out for a meal.

The typhoon incident probably scared them too,” Su Lu said, sitting up and preparing to get out of bed.

But the man’s strong arm wrapped around her waist from behind, preventing her from getting up.

Su Lu: “…”

She instinctively wanted to break free.

But the man behind her seemed to have guessed her intention.

Before she could even start to struggle,

a deep, magnetic voice lazily said, “Don’t move, I have a wound on my back.”

The words acted like a switch, instantly freezing Su Lu in place.

Su Lu softly asked, “Is it not healed yet?

When will you have the stitches removed?

I haven’t seen you go to the hospital for a bandage change…”

“I’ll get the stitches removed when you go for your scar treatment.

It’s a small wound, no need to go to the hospital for a bandage change,” Bo Jingshen said calmly.

It even sounded like he didn’t care about the wound at all.

Su Lu couldn’t help frowning.

If he were in some risky business where getting injured every now and then was normal, his nonchalant attitude would make sense.

But he wasn’t—he was a legitimate businessman.

Why was he so indifferent to scars?

And what about those old scars on his body…

Did his current indifference to injuries have anything to do with those old scars?

What exactly had he been through?

Su Lu didn’t get up; she just reached for the bedside phone and dialed the reception.

The call was answered quickly.

“Hello, this is the reception.

How can I help you?”

Su Lu politely said, “Hello, do you have a medical kit?”

“We only provide over-the-counter medications and simple bandaging supplies.

For prescription medication or larger wounds, we still recommend going to the hospital.”

“It’s okay, the regular kit will do.

Please send it up.

Thank you.”

After getting the receptionist’s response, Su Lu hung up the phone.

The man behind her didn’t say anything, but the firm, muscular arm around her waist seemed to tighten.

Before long, the doorbell rang.

Su Lu got up this time and wasn’t held back.

She brought the medical kit in.

Bo Jingshen was already up, sitting by the bed.

“I’ll change your bandage.”

He didn’t refuse Su Lu’s good intention and let her unveil the bandage from his back.

Su Lu was stunned, her hands unable to move for a long time, her eyes fixed.

To be honest, Su Lu had neglected this.

Because Bo Jingshen didn’t act like someone who was injured…

His presence was strong; his expression never showed a hint of pain.

Each movement was smooth and unaffected.

He could still launch such a fierce and intense offensive on her.

As a result, Su Lu neglected the fact that he was injured.

She thought maybe the wound wasn’t that serious.

Until she unveiled the bandage and saw the wound with her own eyes…

It wasn’t “not that serious.”

It was very serious, but this man had always downplayed it!

A long scar stretched diagonally from his shoulder, crossing his entire back, and extending to the other side of his waist!

The deeper parts had stitches, looking like a centipede crawling across his back.

Su Lu took a deep breath.

As she exhaled, her breathing was trembling.

Then she heard Bo Jingshen’s light sigh, “It’s not that serious.

It just looks scary.”

“Bullshit” was on the tip of Su Lu’s tongue.

But thinking about how the injury happened, she couldn’t scold him and could only bite her lip, opening the bottle of disinfectant, taking out a soaked cotton ball with tweezers, and gently cleaning the wound bit by bit.

“You’ve got such a bad injury, and you still drank yesterday!” Su Lu couldn’t help but say, with a bit of reproach.

And he even had the nerve to stop Old Zou from drinking when he couldn’t even control himself!

Her movements were slow and meticulous, being careful not to use too much force, afraid of hurting him.

This made the process even more torturous.

Bo Jingshen’s lips were tightly pressed together.

Honestly, he’d rather take a sharp pain.

Pain was a more direct and straightforward sensation, without dragging.

But Su Xiaolu’s current actions…

felt like a feather gently brushing the wound.

It was as if a feather was gently brushing his heart as well.

He felt completely unsettled, yet he couldn’t say anything, only pressing his lips and enduring it.

Sweat started to bead on his forehead.

Su Lu saw the sweat on his forehead and back, thinking it was from the pain!

Her movements became even more delicate and gentle!

It was a vicious cycle.

Fortunately, the longest wound had a limit.

After disinfecting the wound, Su Lu waited for the antiseptic to dry, applied a thin layer of healing ointment, then carefully placed breathable, waterproof dressing.

The dressing was finally changed.

Bo Jingshen finally ended the sweet torment.

“All done,” Su Lu said.

Bo Jingshen let out a long breath.

Su Lu’s gaze couldn’t help but glance at his back.

Besides the new wound, his back had many scars.

They had already healed.

It seemed they were old injuries, and she couldn’t tell what had caused them.

But they were quite shocking.

Bo Jingshen quickly put on his robe, covering the old scars.

“Su Lu.”

“Hmm?”

“Come to the reunion with me.”

“But I…” Su Lu frowned.

It didn’t seem right.

When she and Bo Jingshen broke up, it wasn’t a big commotion at the science and technology school, but some classmates in the same dorm might know the details, and she had really played the villain at that time.

If they met again, it would only be awkward.

But Bo Jingshen seemed to know how to press her weak spot.

He said, “There might be alcohol at the reunion.”
