Female Master: Why doesn’t my wife love me yet?

"Lu Rui!" Gu Qingyuan hurried forward and helped him up.

The sound of Lu Rui falling that she just heard outside frightened her. Now she saw with her own eyes that he fell to the ground and seemed to have hit the corner of the table. His hands seemed to be cut by the fragments and were bleeding.

Lu Rui hadn't expected her to come over so suddenly. Panic flashed in his emerald eyes as he said, "Young Master, why are you here?"

"If I hadn't come over, how could I have seen you get yourself into this state." Gu Qingyuan's voice was full of reproach as she helped him sit down on a chair beside her.

Lu Rui wanted to hide his bleeding hand behind his back, but was pulled out by Gu Qingyuan.

There were a lot of cup fragments stuck in the palm of his right hand, and when Gu Qingyuan touched it, he made a "hiss" sound.

"Do you know it hurts now?"

Gu Qingyuan let him go, walked around his room, and asked him, "You should have medicine for treating injuries here, right? Where is it?"

Lu Rui pointed with his finger, and Gu Qingyuan walked over and took out a medicine box.

Gu Qingyuan squatted down beside him and picked out the debris from his palm, but she didn't dare to pull out the part that had pierced into the flesh.

She looked up at Lu Rui and said, "Just bear with it, it will heal soon. If you don't get the splinters out, your wound will get inflamed."

Lu Rui nodded gently. Although he didn't understand what Gu Qingyuan meant by "inflammation", his heart warmed when he saw her caring look.

Thinking that a short pain is worse than a long one, Gu Qingyuan pinched the fragment that pierced his palm with two fingers and pulled it out.

Lu Rui's body trembled with pain, and he watched the blood oozing out of his palm.

After removing all the fragments, Gu Qingyuan began to apply medicine to his wound. Fortunately, the bleeding stopped after the medicine was applied, and Gu Qingyuan wrapped it with gauze.

Throughout the whole process, he only cried out in pain when Gu Qingyuan just touched his injured hand. The rest of the time, he bit his lower lip tightly and endured the pain.

"Okay, press it."

After finally treating the wound on his hand, Gu Qingyuan stood up and motioned him to press the injured area.

Although the bleeding has stopped, what if it starts bleeding again later?

Lu Rui heard her words and held it down obediently.

"I said, how could you fall?"

Gu Qingyuan looked at him worriedly and asked.

"I... just wanted to practice walking."

He wanted to walk like a normal person, and after waiting for a long time for his leg to heal, his body seemed to be unable to adapt to the leg because he had not used it for a long time.

"So how's your practice going?"

"I can also walk a few steps without support."

Gu Qingyuan was a little surprised. She had always thought that Lu Rui's legs were still the same as before, but she didn't expect that he could already walk.

"Oh, that's pretty fast."

Lu Rui looked at her again and asked, "Why did the young master come to my place tonight?"

Gu Qingyuan scratched his head and said, "I just suddenly remembered it, so I came to take a look."

The surroundings fell into silence again, and neither of them spoke again.

Suddenly, Lu Rui started to take off his clothes. Because he often worked when he was at home, his muscles looked very strong.

His skin color was not very white, it looked like a normal wheat color, but there were many whip marks and other signs of beatings on his exposed skin.

Lu Rui took off his clothes numbly, as if Gu Qingyuan didn't exist.

Gu Qingyuan quickly held him down and asked in confusion, "What are you doing? You need to take off your clothes on the bed, and you're not sleeping now."

Lu Rui was silent for a moment, then said, "Young Master, do you need me to go to the bed and take off my clothes?"

Gu Qingyuan didn't understand what he meant at first, but suddenly when she saw his gaze, she understood something.

She held her forehead and said, "I'm not that hungry, and I didn't come to you for that."

Well, although this statement is not very credible.

After all, it was late at night, a man and a woman were alone, and Lu Rui was the one she bought, so he had to listen to her.

Lu Rui's upper body was already naked. Gu Qingyuan's hand touched the wounds on his body, as if he could see him trying to escape, but being pulled back by the human traffickers and whipped hard.

When it touched his skin, Lu Rui's body trembled slightly. He looked down at the countless wounds on his body, which seemed to be mocking him.

Reminding himself that he was nothing more than a slave to be sold at will, and no one would care even if he was beaten to death.

Gu Qingyuan withdrew his hand and found that something seemed wrong with his condition.

She coughed lightly and said, "Since you're okay, I'm going back now. Be careful not to let the wound come into contact with water for the next two days."

Is she leaving?

Lu Rui raised his head and looked at her, with an emotion in his eyes that Gu Qingyuan could not understand.

Oh, and his legs.

Gu Qingyuan lifted up his trouser leg and took a look. From the outside, his originally injured leg now looked normal.

She smiled and said, "Actually, you can't rush learning to walk. Just take your time."

Lu Rui moved his lips and said, "Okay."

Seeing him like this, Gu Qingyuan thought that he didn't want to talk because he was in too much pain.

People have already seen it, so it’s time for her to go back.

Gu Qingyuan planned to help him to the bed and then leave.

But Lu Rui seemed to have misunderstood her meaning. When he reached the bed, his hand was already on his belt.

How can this person take off his clothes anywhere?!

Gu Qingyuan held his injured hand again and said, "I want to go back."

Lu Rui's hand paused, confusion appearing in his green eyes.

"Didn't you just say you would take off your clothes on the bed?"

Gu Qingyuan gritted her teeth and said, "I mean you should take off your clothes before you go to bed, not in front of me."

Didn't this person have any sense of shame at all? Suddenly, she felt a little guilty. Lu Rui had been moved around by human traffickers, being picked up like merchandise. I'm afraid her sense of shame had long been erased.

Sighing in his heart, Gu Qingyuan looked at him with some pity.

"Okay, you should rest early. I have to go back too."

Lu Rui nodded blankly.

After finishing speaking, Gu Qing walked out of his room. As she left, Lu Rui heard someone ask her, "Young Master, why are you leaving so soon?"

She had already walked some distance away, and Lu Rui didn't hear clearly what she answered. He just lowered his head to look at the wound on his hand that she had bandaged, then raised it and rubbed it gently on his face.

It still hurt a little, but compared to the beatings he had received before, it was nothing.

Why did she do this? Lu Rui didn't understand.

I am not good-looking, not worth much, and I am a cripple. Why did she bring me back and place me here to be taken care of?
