He lured her deep into his trap, using both overt and covert methods to seduce her.

He slowly walked forward, bent down, and accurately inserted the plug into the socket.

Then, he straightened up and gently pressed the fan's power button.

With a slight buzzing sound, the fan began to spin rapidly.

He turned to look at Wei Yinuo and asked softly, "Where do you feel unwell? Let me help you cool down."

Wei Yinuo's lips twitched, but her expression looked somewhat unnatural, and she awkwardly waved her hand.

"no, I'm fine."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yan did not respond, but stood quietly in place, silently looking at Wei Yinuo.

Wei Yinuo felt increasingly uncomfortable under his gaze, so she mustered up her courage and looked up to meet Zhou Yan's eyes.

He chuckled dryly and said, "Uncle Zhou, I'm fine. You can go back now. I can take care of myself."

Zhou Yan was taken aback for a moment, then asked in return, "If he can stay here with you, why can't I?"

Upon hearing this, Wei Yinuo froze, and it took her several seconds to recover before she asked, her face full of confusion, "What?"

Zhou Yan simply shook his head and replied calmly, "It's nothing."

"Oh."

Wei Yinuo sat silently on the edge of the bed, staring blankly at the needle on the back of her hand.

Zhou Yan sat motionless by her bedside, watching over her.

For a moment, Wei Yinuo felt extremely embarrassed.

She changed the subject and said to Uncle Zhou, "Uncle Zhou, please don't tell my mom and uncle about my allergies."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yan asked with great interest, "Are you so afraid of letting them know?"

"I don't want them to worry, and besides, it's not a big deal."

Zhou Yan frowned.

"What would be considered a serious matter? Do you know? The doctor said that if you hadn't been brought in in time, you would have suffocated."

Wei Yinuo waved her hand dismissively: "Oh, it's nothing. I've been like this before. The doctor was just scaring you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Yan suddenly roared, "Wei Yinuo!"

Wei Yinuo was stunned by his shout and didn't react for a moment.

Zhou Yan realized he had overreacted, took a deep breath, and after calming himself down, said, "I didn't tell them."

Upon hearing this, Wei Yinuo finally felt a sense of relief and quickly thanked Zhou Yan, saying, "Thank you."

Zhou Yan suddenly frowned: "Why are you thanking me?"

This question stumped Wei Yinuo. She stood there blankly, blinking her big eyes, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

At this moment, Zhou Yan seemed to be getting impatient. He reached out and rubbed his slightly messy hair, muttering, "Oh well, it's nothing serious."

After saying that, he turned around and strode out of the ward without looking back.

Watching Zhou Yan's departing figure disappear through the door, Wei Yinuo slowly raised her head.

Only after confirming that Zhou Yan had really left did she feel as if all her strength had been drained away, her body went limp, and she involuntarily let out a huge sigh of relief.

However, at the same time, an indescribable sense of loss quietly welled up in my heart, as if my whole heart had become empty.

This feeling is so contradictory.

She actually disliked this version of herself.

But I can't control my emotions.

The nurse came over to remove the needle and brought over some medicine.

Seeing her red eyes, I comforted her, "It'll be fine in a few days. If it's itchy tonight, just apply some medicine."

Wei Yinuo nodded.

As soon as the nurse left, she got out of bed, went to the toilet, and applied the medicine to herself in front of the mirror.

It's okay on my face and arms, but it's not so easy to wipe off my back.

She took off her clothes and put them aside.

She struggled to twist her body as she applied medicine to her back.

The bathroom door was suddenly and unexpectedly pushed open.

With a slight creaking sound, Zhou Yan walked in.

The first thing you see is a girl with her upper body half-naked, applying medicine in front of a mirror.

Zhou Yan was stunned.

I instinctively wanted to look away.

I couldn't help but sigh: the little girl has really grown up.

Wei Yinuo had no idea that someone would break in at this time.

She trembled with shock and frantically grabbed the clothes lying to the side to cover her body.

Her cheeks flushed instantly, and she stammered, "You, how did you get in?"

Zhou Yan seemed to realize the inappropriateness of his behavior.

His eyes darted away, and he explained somewhat awkwardly.

"I went to buy you dinner, and when I came back I couldn't find you in the room, so I..."

As he finished speaking, his voice trailed off, clearly betraying a hint of guilt.

Wei Yinuo was both embarrassed and annoyed. She bit her lip and said coquettishly, "Get out!"

However, Zhou Yan did not turn around and leave immediately. Instead, he took a small step forward and asked with concern, "What are you doing here?"

Wei Yinuo subconsciously hid the ointment she was holding behind her back, lowered her head, and softly replied, "Apply the medicine..."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yan reached out his right hand and snatched the ointment directly from Wei Yinuo's hand.

Before Wei Yinuo could react, Zhou Yan had already taken the ointment.

"Turn around, I'll help you."

Zhou Yan's tone was calm, as if the awkwardness from just now had not occurred.

Upon hearing this, Wei Yinuo blushed deeply. She was so nervous that she could hardly speak, stammering, "No, no need, I, I can, I can do it myself."

"But the wound is on your back, how can you apply the medicine properly if you can't see it yourself?"

Zhou Yan patiently persuaded him.

Wei Yinuo kept her head down, like a child who had done something wrong, clutching the hem of her clothes tightly with both hands, stubbornly insisting, "Really, it's not necessary. I can do it myself."

Zhou Yan immediately became somewhat angry.

Xu Ning can see it, so why can't he?

He wanted to question.

But when she saw the blisters on Wei Yinuo's body caused by an allergic reaction, her heart softened instantly.

She brought this upon herself.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yan patiently said, "Listen to me, your back injury is quite serious."

As he spoke, he reached out, grabbed her shoulder, and turned her around so that her back was to him.

Wei Yinuo looked up and gazed at the man standing behind her through the mirror.

The moment their eyes met, she felt guilty and quickly lowered her head.

Zhou Yan looked at her flushed ear tips and chuckled softly.

Wei Yinuo heard this and got a little angry: "What are you laughing at? Do you think I look ridiculous right now?"

Zhou Yan explained, "No."

Wei Yinuo retorted, "Then what are you laughing at?"

"I'm not laughing."

Wei Yinuo: "..."

Liar! She clearly heard it just now, but she still says she didn't.

She was thinking about crickets in her mind.

"So you just apply the ointment directly to the red and swollen area?"

Zhou Yan's low, hoarse voice came from behind.

Wei Yinuo was a little embarrassed, and gave a soft "hmm" before whispering, "There are cotton swabs over there."

"understood."

After saying that, Zhou Yan reached out and washed his hands. After washing his hands, he also used the disinfectant next to him.

Wei Yinuo asked in surprise, "Why are you washing your hands?"
