How could Charlene dare?

Feeling uneasy, she politely declined, saying, "This...this won't be necessary, will it? My cut doesn't look good. Wait until I've cut it better, then I'll send it to you."

"Right now... I'm afraid that after you read this, you'll expel me from the fandom."

Upon hearing this, Shi Ye smiled and replied, "No, I promise I won't expel you."

Despite this, Charlene was still sweating profusely and extremely nervous.

She knew in her heart that this disguise was her last fig leaf; if it were to be torn off, she would once again find herself in a socially precarious situation!

Absolutely not.

What can we do?

Charlene was extremely anxious and even had the urge to jump out of the car.

Just when she was about to break down, they finally arrived at the pharmacy.

This finally gave her an excuse. She pointed out the window and said, "We've arrived."

Upon hearing this, Shino didn't press the matter further, but simply brought the car to a steady stop.

Xia Lin was about to get out of the car when Shi Ye stopped her, saying, "You stay here, I'll go buy medicine."

After saying that, he went downstairs.

When he entered the pharmacy, he felt that Xia Lin's behavior that evening was very suspicious, and something was not quite right.

He instinctively took out his phone and opened his fan group.

Actually, he has a secondary account in the group, but he doesn't check it much on weekdays.

When we went inside, they were having a lively conversation.

So he tried to identify the account that might belong to Charlene from among the many accounts.

But after a careful inspection, nothing was found.

Inside the car, Charlene's gaze followed the boy's retreating figure, while a fierce mental battle raged in her mind.

She felt that things couldn't continue like this; one layer of disguise was no longer enough.

She had been forced to lie to Shi Ye earlier, and she still felt uneasy about it.

She decided that once she got back, she had to create a random account to blend in, adding several layers of protection, so that if she was questioned again, she would have an excuse to cover it up.

Shortly after making up his mind, Tokino returned with the medicine.

After getting on the bus, he began to unpack the medicine packet.

"I'll do it myself!"

Charlene almost instinctively reached out to take it and handle it.

This minor injury was nothing to her; it was a piece of cake.

Shino, however, spoke gently, "Let me help you!"

Charlene paused for a moment, her hand also stopping, and at the same time, she was a little surprised.

It was already very kind of Shi Ye to buy medicine for himself, but I didn't expect that he would have to treat his wounds himself.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Shi Ye said again, "Put your hand over a little."

Charlene then came to her senses, "Ah..."

However, before she could reach out her hand, Shi Ye, holding a cotton swab, raised his hand to disinfect her.

His movements were skillful and efficient, and finally, he carefully bandaged her wound.

During this contact, their fingertips inevitably touched, and that subtle sensation made Charlene's heart tremble.

She secretly sized up Shi Ye.

She discovered that this person, from any angle, perfectly matched her aesthetic standards; he was practically a perfect match for her heart.

Those fingers, with their distinct knuckles, were long and beautiful.

Especially when turning the steering wheel, it's like silently tugging at someone's heartstrings, making it irresistible.

At that moment, his focused movements as he applied the medicine struck a chord deep within Xia Lin's heart.

To avoid being discovered as a lovesick girl, Charlene tried hard to find topics to talk about in order to hide her inner flutter.

She asked, "Your movements are so skillful!"

Shi Yang said you come from a medical family. Do you also know medicine?

Shino nodded and replied, "Yes."

Charlene became interested upon hearing this.

Although I learned a lot about Shi Ye from Ma Xi, there were still some things I wasn't very clear about.

Then, out of curiosity, she asked, "Then why didn't you study medicine?"

Tokino explained, "I'm not very interested."

Actually, back in the tribe, the village chief made sure every child learned medicine together!

However, among the younger generation in the tribe, Marcy is the most talented.

Although he is quite outstanding, he has no interest in this.

Moreover, it's enough for Marcy to carry on the traditions of the tribe.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have plunged headfirst into the racing world and become a race car driver as soon as he left the tribe.

Charlene suddenly realized why.

She nodded thoughtfully, then said, "However, I think if you studied medicine, you could do very well too."

Shi Yang said you're exceptionally smart and learn everything very quickly!

She looked envious when this topic was brought up.

She felt genuine admiration and respect for those who were exceptionally gifted.

Everyone she knew seemed to be incredibly capable: Shi Yang, Zhou Si, Xiao Zhi…

And those big shots, including Shi Ye in front of me, are all highly talented players.

In comparison, I seem so ordinary! I have no special skills.

Shi Ye looked up at her and said calmly, "Human abilities are limited. Being able to do one thing well is already quite remarkable."

The rest don't need to be forced, there's nothing to envy, and there's no need to belittle yourself.

Charlene was slightly taken aback when she heard these words.

Is he... trying to comfort himself?

For some reason, a warm feeling quietly welled up in her heart, giving her an indescribable joy.

She nodded gently and replied honestly, "I just said it as I felt, without any intention of being ashamed of myself."

Tokino said softly, "That's good."

As he spoke, he had already put a band-aid on Xia Lin's wound, then put away the medicine and handed it to her.

He added, "After you get back, don't touch it with water for now. Apply it a few more times until it's fully healed. You should know that."

Yes, of course she knew.

However, it was different when these words came from Tokino's mouth.

It was like a deep expression of concern.

Charlene immediately accepted it and thanked her profusely.

Shi Ye didn't take it seriously and simply said, "Shall I take you back first?"

"Okay!"

Charlene nodded in agreement without the slightest hesitation.

On the way back, she was in a particularly good mood.

This must be what it feels like to have a crush on someone!

Even a simple word of comfort or a dose of medicine can instantly lift someone's spirits.

That subtle flutter of the heart is like a flower quietly blooming in spring, filling the entire heart without one even realizing it.

She held the medicine in her hands, and every now and then she would steal a glance at Shi Ye.

She felt that what Shi Yang said was right. It would be a real regret to miss out on someone you like just because of pride.

This made her even more determined to pursue Shi Ye.

Later that evening, Charlene finally returned home.

Seeing her beaming expression, Xia's parents immediately understood.

This is... you've met Tokino before, right?

The fact that his daughter is a fan of race car drivers, with magazines and related items filling the room, is no secret.

They also knew that Shi Ye was Shi Yang's older brother.

My daughter likes someone, and she can't hide it at all.
