Chapter 229: I don't care, sleep wherever you want

"I'm not a doctor!"

Qiao Sheng pulled her hand back.

Shi Lin smiled, he stared at Qiao Sheng and said: "You're not a doctor, but you've sewn clothes before, right? Sewing this wound is no different from sewing clothes."

"What do you mean, no difference!"

"The difference is huge!"

Qiao Sheng didn't dare to sew Shi Lin's wound, she said: "Let's go find a doctor tomorrow to sew it up; I'll just give you a simple treatment for now."

Without waiting for Shi Lin to say anything,

Qiao Sheng began cleaning his wound; perhaps afraid of hurting him, she handled it much more gently than before.

Shi Lin stared at her the whole time without saying a word.

If it weren't for his wound being made to bleed by her pressing.

Qiao Sheng almost turned and left.

Done.

Qiao Sheng bandaged him with the previous white cloth; being close, they inevitably touched.

Shi Lin reached out and pulled her into his embrace: "You care about me."

He really blossoms with just a bit of sunshine.

Qiao Sheng shouted: "Let go of your claws!"

Shi Lin pursed his lips and reluctantly let go of her.

"Where should I sleep tonight?"

Qiao Sheng replied to him: "I don't care, sleep wherever you want."

Just as she finished speaking.

Qiao Sheng realized her words were problematic; she wanted to correct herself but it was too late, Shi Lin walked straight to her bed and lay down.

"Get up!"

"I'm in pain."

Shi Lin spoke up.

Qiao Sheng didn't believe him at all, she said: "When I was bandaging you earlier you didn't say it hurt, but now you do—do you really expect me to believe you?"

"I was first dazed by you and forgot to say it hurt."

Shi Lin opened his mouth and came forward.

Qiao Sheng was speechless.

She turned and went to sleep in the next room.

Now there are many rooms in the house, she couldn't be bothered to argue with him.

Shi Lin, smelling the faint fragrance on the bed, soon fell asleep; only heaven knows how little he's slept these days, as soon as he opens his eyes he rushes here.

Morning.

Xiao Shitou and the others got up, but he still hadn't woken.

Qiao Sheng made breakfast, not seeing him get up, she assumed he had left and ate with Xiao Shitou and the others.

After eating breakfast.

With An Liu and the others seeing Xiao Shitou and the others off, she didn't bother with them.

As she came out of the outhouse, preparing to go to town.

Shi Lin came walking over.

"You didn't leave?"

Qiao Sheng blurted out a sentence.

Did she just want him to leave?

Shi Lin came before Qiao Sheng and said: "These days I'm not going anywhere; I'll just stay here to recuperate."

He was injured.

Qiao Sheng couldn't bring herself to drive him away; she lightly opened her lips and said: "If you want to stay, stay—but I'm not home during the day, so you'll have to figure out your own meals."

"Mm!"

A smile instantly appeared on Shi Lin's face.

Qiao Sheng suddenly realized his wound hadn't been sutured, she said: "Your wound hasn't been stitched; you'd better go to town to see a doctor."

"I'll listen to you."

Shi Lin walked together with Qiao Sheng.

They happened to run into Qiao Hushui and the others as they came out.

They chatted a few words.

Shi Lin and Qiao Sheng rode in Qiao Hushui and the others' ox cart to town.

They hadn't even left the village when someone spotted them.

Upon seeing several handsome young men beside Qiao Sheng, the few women waiting for the ox cart at the village entrance began to chatter.

"Do you know the man sitting across from Qiao Sheng? He's really handsome!"

"Yes, he's really handsome."

"Who knows, maybe Qiao Lianhua hooked up with him from somewhere—she's never been the settling type; look at the men around her, all kinds."

Shi Lin narrowed his eyes, asked Qiao Xuehua for a peanut, shelled it, took out the kernel, and flicked it at the woman's leg.
