Moonlight falls into my arms
Chapter 20 Surely he doesn't only like her.
She thought that Jiang Yuci might have been busy, which was why he left after dropping her and the kitten off.
But to my surprise, Jiang Yuci returned after about ten minutes.
He was carrying three bags: one bag of medicine, a sturdy paper shopping bag, and a square packing box swaying in his hands.
Set the items aside.
He took out a pack of medical wipes and handed it to Ruan Li: "Clean the edges of the wound."
Ruan Li took it, and as she tore the tissue apart, the congealed cut on her hand bone was pulled open, and blood started to seep out again.
"Hiss..." Ruan Li's hand trembled, and the tissue in her hand fell to the ground.
Jiang Yuci sat down next to her and opened another package for her.
He held Ruan Li's hand in his palm and slowly and carefully wiped away the mud around the wound.
Ruan Li was still in a bit of pain, but she didn't dare to speak.
As Jiang Yuci wiped Ruan Li's other hand, Ruan Li bit her fingertip in pain.
Jiang Yuci paused, looked up at her trembling eyelashes, and asked, "Does it hurt?"
Ruan Li felt a pang of grievance, thinking that Jiang Yuci was doing it on purpose, which was why he was wiping so slowly.
She and Jiang Yuci got into a tiff and kept their mouths shut.
When Jiang Yuci used an alcohol swab to clean her wound, Ruan Li couldn't help but say, "I... I didn't mean to run out and cause you trouble. If I don't find it, it will die."
Ruan Li pulled her hand away from Jiang Yuci's palm. "It hurts too."
She was in so much pain that she almost fainted, and tears streamed down her face.
We can't blame everything on her.
Jiang Yuci seemed to see through what she was thinking and pulled her hand back. "I didn't say I was blaming you. If you don't clean it properly, the wound will get infected."
"...Then why are you making that face? I'm scared," Ruan Li said weakly, her head lowered.
Jiang Yuci softened her movements as she applied the medicine to her hands. "Should I laugh?"
Ruan Li thought about it and agreed. She was already in such a miserable state, it wouldn't be polite for Jiang Yuci to smile at her.
Ruan Li's hands were wrapped in cotton gauze.
Jiang Yuci placed the takeout box on her lap and opened it.
The delicious aroma of the pizza slowly rises, filling the air with the fragrance of cheese and shrimp.
Ruan Li stared intently at the pizza and swallowed.
Jiang Yuci wiped his hands clean, took out a piece, and placed it in Ruan Li's palm.
"It smells so good..." Ruan Li held the pizza and bent down to take a bite.
Jiang Yuci watched her eat, and then got her more food after Ruan Li finished.
...I was indeed hungry.
Looking at the empty pizza box, Jiang Yuci silently put it away and threw it into the trash can next to her.
When the kitten was brought out, Ruan Li reached out her two hands to catch it.
"Luckily, they were brought in in time; any later and they probably wouldn't have been able to save him."
"Thank you, doctor." Ruan Li looked at Jiang Yuci beside her. "Um, could you pay my medical bills first? I'll pay you back later."
Jiang Yu left the payment counter and queued to pay. Ruan Li sat beside him, quietly watching him while holding her cat.
That said, she hadn't seen Jiang Yuci for only one day.
When I saw him today, I couldn't take my eyes off him.
Jiang Yuci always wore minimalist basics. The white shirt made him look tall and handsome, exuding a coldness that kept strangers at bay.
Ruan Li suddenly wondered what Jiang Yuci was like during her student days.
Would you, like those boys, secretly write love letters and slip them into the drawer of the girl you like, or give her milk or hand warmers?
But then he remembered that Jiang Yuci said the other person didn't even know him.
Maybe he never did anything for them, otherwise how could he go unnoticed?
Does this mean that he didn't really like his first love that much?
Perhaps it was just because the dead are always gradually perfected that Jiang Yuci developed an obsession.
Life is long, surely he won't only love her.
"Let's go."
"Oh." Ruan Li came back to her senses.
Jiang Yuci stood in front of her with the form in hand, looking at her with his eyes lowered.
Her little face, now clean, still had a thin layer of redness at the corners of her eyes from crying for so long.
He glanced at the small shopping bag next to Ruan Li and said, "Take that and let's go."
Ruan Li pulled her hand away from the bag while holding the cat, and followed behind Jiang Yuci, still holding the cat. "What did you buy?"
Ruan Li glanced inside; it was a small, square box.
Jiang Yuci has a habit of wearing a watch, so she guessed that this must be a wristwatch.
Jiang Yuci turned his head back and watched Ruan Li follow him with small steps. He paused for a moment and waited for her to walk to his side.
"You'll see when you open it back home."
"Should I take it apart? Can I take apart your things?" Ruan Li shook her head. "You should take it apart yourself."
Jiang Yuci looked straight ahead, his voice becoming slightly more serious, "Yours."
The two walked forward together.
Ruan Li was both surprised and suspicious: "Mine? You bought it for me?"
Her lips widened into a smile, revealing small dimples on her cheeks. "What did you buy for me?"
Jiang Yuci remained silent and shook his head.
Ruan Li, holding the cat, gently nudged him. "You're still acting mysterious."
The two got into a taxi. Ruan Li sat next to Jiang Yuci, still wearing Jiang Yuci's coat. She looked up and said, "Jiang Yuci, I'd like to ask you for a favor."
Ruan Li took it very seriously and even used the word "application".
Jiang Yuci glanced at her indifferently, and seeing the cautiousness in her eyes and the hand that kept stroking the kitten's head, he knew what she was going to say.
"can."
It was a rare sight to see Jiang Yuci actually utter the word "can".
Ruan Li's eyes widened. "Do you know what I'm going to say? You actually agreed?"
Jiang Yuci looked out the window. The sleet was getting lighter and lighter, and the warm winter sun was shining down.
"Don't let it near me."
Ruan Li's smile was dazzling. She tilted her head to look at Jiang Yuci, "You're so kind, Jiang Yuci."
Jiang Yuci moved a little to the side, distancing himself from Ruan Li.
Ruan Li muttered, "You're so strict about male virtues, you won't even let the edge of my clothes touch me."
"And these are your own clothes."
Ruan Li felt a little depressed and looked to the other side, "She can't see anymore."
Jiang Yuci glanced at her. "What did you say?"
Ruan Li replied somewhat modestly, "I... I didn't say anything. I just said you truly love her, haha."
She gave a fake smile, baring her teeth and squinting.
Jiang Yuci felt that her tone was a little strange, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
The two of them finally went home, each looking out at the snowy scenery.
The kitten arrived in a hurry; the two of them only bought a cat bed and some cat food before bringing it inside.
Ruan Li made the kitten's nest in her room.
He took off his coat and was about to return it to Jiang Yuci.
Jiang Yuci complained again, "Put it in the washing machine to clean it."
Ruan Li put the clothes in the washing machine to wash.
She ran excitedly to the living room and picked up the things Jiang Yuci had given her again.
She glanced at Jiang Yuci sitting on the sofa. "I'm so curious, what's inside? Want me to guess?"
Jiang Yuci glanced at her, not understanding what was there to guess now that the items were already in her hands.
Ruan Li's first guess was still the watch.
She jokingly teased Jiang Yuci, "I bet you thought you couldn't contact me by phone this time, so you bought me a digital watch that can make phone calls."
Ruan Li remembers that one of the big shots said that it was difficult to type on a digital watch, so he sent voice messages.
Jiang Yuci glanced at the breakfast on the table, reached out and touched it; it was still warm.
The heating in the room was on, so the porridge cooled down slowly.
“Eat your breakfast first,” he said.
