Xie Qingyu's movements were so natural that Nie Shenyuan's heart melted. He bent down and let Xie Qingyu wrap her arms around his neck before lifting her up.

"You're awake. Were you tired yesterday?" Nie Shenyuan asked, looking at him.

"You're really back?" Xie Qingyu's tone was filled with surprise, and she seemed to have regained some composure.

"Do you think you're dreaming?" Nie Shenyuan felt sorry for him upon hearing this.

"I thought he hadn't woken up yet. Didn't you say it would be a month? Why are you back so early?" Xie Qingyu looked up at him and asked.

"We finished the mission early, so we came back a little early," Nie Shenyuan said with a smile.

"Are you alright?" Xie Qingyu asked.

Nie Shenyuan paused for a moment, then shook his head. "No."

Although it was only a momentary pause, Xie Qingyu still noticed his hesitation.

"Where are you injured?" Xie Qingyu withdrew her hand and looked Nie Shenyuan up and down.

Good, no missing limbs, so the wounds are on the body.

"It's just a minor scratch," Nie Shenyuan said casually.

Xie Qingyu didn't believe it. "Let me see."

"That's not a good idea." Nie Shenyuan tried to back away.

"Don't move, let me see." Xie Qingyu said firmly.

Nie Shenyuan stood still, letting Xie Qingyu take off his clothes.

Nie Shenyuan hadn't changed his clothes after returning; he was still wearing the clothes he wore on the mission. They were relatively clean, so he must have changed before returning.

Xie Qingyu was a little slow to react in the morning, and her movements were not very nimble; her hands even trembled a bit when she was unbuttoning her clothes.

Nie Shenyuan swallowed hard, tilting his head back and not daring to move.

Xie Qingyu unbuttoned his clothes, revealing the skin and flesh underneath.

Even though they've shared a bed for so long, Xie Qingyu has never touched Nie Shenyuan's muscles.

The muscles under his hands are now firm and the lines are very smooth. There is a piece of gauze on his waist and abdomen, which means it has been bandaged.

Xie Qingyu examined it carefully and found no blood seeping out, so the injury should indeed not be too serious.

Xie Qingyu touched the area around the wound. "Does it hurt?"

Nie Shenyuan wanted to answer that it didn't hurt, as the injury was really not serious.

But just as the words were about to come out, he saw Xie Qingyu's worried look and immediately changed his words, "It hurts, it hurts terribly."

"The medicine isn't working?" Xie Qingyu asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Seeing you makes me feel a little pained." Nie Shenyuan's tone softened, with an obvious hint of coquetry.

Xie Qingyu looked up at him to check his expression.

Half a day later, Xie Qingyu lowered her head and blew on his wound.

A slight breeze blowing on the skin caused a shiver, the sensation spreading from the waist until dawn.

"Alright, alright." Nie Shenyuan quickly helped the person up. "Get up and eat."

"Where's Tuanzi?" Xie Qingyu looked outside and realized it was almost noon.

“He’s out playing. He’s already finished eating.” Nie Shenyuan watched Xie Qingyu get up and followed behind her, continuing, “Was he sick yesterday? I saw a basin by his bedside.”

"He had a slight fever yesterday, but he should be better now, right?" Xie Qingyu said as she walked to Tuanzi's side, bent down and touched his forehead. There was no sign of fever at all.

"Thank you for your hard work. You should wash up and have something to eat first. I'll go report over there. Don't wait for me." Nie Shenyuan said as he walked out.

Nie Shenyuan has had time to rest since he returned, and it's about time he went to report.

"Have you eaten?" Xie Qingyu asked, noticing that the food didn't seem to have been touched much.

"I've already eaten. This was specially saved for you." Nie Shenyuan didn't really have much of an appetite when he came back. He had been tense all night, and the sudden relaxation affected his appetite.

"it is good."

Nie Shenyuan went to report, while Xie Qingyu ate here.

Even though Nie Shenyuan had only been back for a short time, he had already tidied up the yard again.

Nie Shenyuan will be able to rest for a few days after returning from his mission.

Xie Qingyu was quite happy to receive this news.

"You've recovered from your injury," Xie Qingyu joked.

It wasn't until Nie Shenyuan finished showering that night that Xie Qingyu could see the wound. It was more serious than Xie Qingyu had imagined; it was a bullet graze, not just a superficial injury.

All the meat in this piece was taken away.

Looking back now, the fact that there was no blood on the gauze is probably because the wound was opened relatively early, and it now seems to be showing signs of scabbing over.
