Chapter 808: Baffling 11

~2 min read 394 words

When I handed the water to Shangguan Yun, he smiled and said, "My hand is a bit numb; will you give me a drink?"

Seeing Shangguan Yun's pleading eyes, I couldn't bear to refuse; if we were at home, I would definitely be willing to give him a drink.

Maybe even without him saying it, I would give him a drink, but this is after all a hospital, and we're still high school students.

We can't be so flashy; keep it low-key, definitely keep a low profile.

"Alright, wait a moment, I'll rub your hand for you." I said somewhat reluctantly.

After saying that, I gave Shangguan Yun water to drink; after he finished, I put the cup aside, lest he want another drink later and have to go ask the nurse, which would seem too wasteful.

Then I gently pinched Shangguan Yun's hand that he claimed had gone numb, using both hands.

I knew he definitely wasn't numb, just making an excuse; since he said it was numb, I would kindly rub it for him.

As expected, after a few rubs, Shangguan Yun gave me a guilty smile and said, "Okay, okay, that's enough; my hand is cold, hold it for me." He then pulled his hand back.

I gave him a look of contempt; he felt guilty and didn't dare look at me.

He perhaps knew I understood in my heart that he was doing it on purpose.

So I took hold of his icy hand again and said, "It's still so cold. How much longer will the IV take? Are you feeling really uncomfortable?"

I can feel that sensation; when the hand gets icy and numb, it's terribly uncomfortable, and in severe cases, the whole arm goes numb.

"Once the IV is done, it'll be fine; I estimate it'll take another hour or so. If you're tired, you can lean on my chest and sleep; when it's done, I'll wake you." Shangguan Yun said with a smile.

"I'm not impatient; I just feel sorry for your hand—it must be awful. How about this: I'll go outside and buy you a hand warmer; then your hand won't be so icy." I thought of this good idea.

But Shangguan Yun laughed and said, "No need; your hand is warmer than any hand warmer. I just need your hand." He said, pulling me close.
