After the divorce, Mr. Gu spent every day at the crematorium.

As Bo Yuxiu's voice drew closer, Shen Yao's heart began to pound faster.

"Teacher Bo, thank you. Please put the light by the gate. I'll have the electrician come and change it later."

"I just happened to be here, so I'll change it for you while I'm at it. Besides, it's not safe for an electrician to come here so late at night."

"It's late, you should go home."

Shen Yao didn't want Bo Yuxiu to see her in such a disheveled state.

However, a force pressed down on her shoulder.

"Teacher Shen, turn around and let me see you."

Bo Yuxiu's voice was almost right next to her ear.

Shen Yao's body still wanted to move forward, but Bo Yuxiu turned her back.

By the light of the roadside lamp, Bo Yuxiu could see Shen Yao's face clearly. His pupils contracted sharply, and he was stunned for a long time.

"What happened?"

"I did it myself, it has nothing to do with anyone else."

Shen Yao no longer wanted to have anything to do with the Gu family, so she didn't plan to let Bo Yuxiu know what had happened.

Seeing the woman with her head down, trying her best to hide the wound on her face, Bo Yuxiu took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I won't ask. Let's go and treat the wound on your face first."

Shen Yao had almost no choice but to go inside, as Bo Yuxiu pulled her into the house.

Shen Yao pressed her fingerprint to unlock the door. As soon as the door opened and the lights came on, she subconsciously turned her head to the side, trying her best not to let Bo Yuxiu see her face.

The door closed softly, and Bo Yuxiu dimmed the lights a few degrees, saying gently, "My technique is very gentle, it won't hurt. Where is your first-aid kit?"

Shen Yao pointed to the location of the study.

Bo Yuxiu entered the study, took out the medicine box, and skillfully took out alcohol and anti-swelling medicine.

Under the room lights, the woman's face was covered with layers of handprints, her fair skin red and swollen.

Suppressing the urge to press for answers, Bo Yuxiu began applying medicine to the woman.

The moment the anti-swelling and pain-relieving medicine touched her face, the stinging sensation immediately traveled to her brain, and Shen Yao couldn't help but gasp.

However, afterwards, no matter how much pain she was in, she gritted her teeth and endured it.

Bo Yuxiu tried his best to use as little force as possible.

The woman frowned deeply, but did not utter another groan.

"If it hurts, you can call out."

"It doesn't hurt," Shen Yao replied firmly.

Bo Yuxiu's hand, holding the cotton swab, froze in mid-air.

He looked at the woman; her lips were already pale from the pain, yet she stubbornly insisted that it didn't hurt.

Bo Yuxiu was a little angry. "Who taught you to cry out when it hurts?"

Shen Yao's face was burning with pain, and her consciousness was becoming somewhat blurred.

Upon hearing Bo Yuxiu's words, she was taken aback. "What?"

Seeing the woman's blank expression, Bo Yuxiu shook his head. "Never mind, she's in a lot of pain right now, so I won't say anything that would upset her."

After applying the medicine to Shen Yao and instructing her not to get the wound wet, Bo Yuxiu went to the bathroom to change the light for Shen Yao.

Shen Yao watched as the man elegantly took off his coat, folded it neatly, and placed it on the sofa. He then rolled up the sleeves of his white shirt and asked, puzzled, "You can do this too? With so many servants in your family, do you, the young master, really need to do this?"

Bo Yuxiu turned his head and said with a smile, "I went abroad to study after graduating from high school. During my eight years of studying abroad, I earned my own tuition and living expenses. Sometimes I worked two jobs a day, doing all sorts of jobs. Washing dishes, cleaning toilets, delivering food..."
