Chapter 9

Shen Qian sighed, "You are making cold jokes again"

Li Meili's ultimate evaluation of Shen Qian

A loud bang echoed, startling Shen Qian awake, and she jumped up in fright. She hurried outside and looked down from the building, only to see You Ran staring blankly at the ground, where there were broken pieces of porcelain and an overturned lamp at his feet

How would I know what is wrong? I am not a doctor

It must be said that particularly cold jokes have truly reached an unparalleled level

You Ran smiled faintly, her face once again displaying the usual warm smile she was known for... Shen Qian truly did not understand this man; she blew gently on the water in her cup and cautiously took a few sips to quench her thirst

The night grows deeper, and after the heavy rain, the stars in the sky are hidden among the clouds, with only a few visible. The crescent moon hangs in the deep blue night, occasionally veiled by passing clouds, and the moonlight gradually dims.

It is best for women not to wear anything while sleeping, as it is not good for the breasts and may easily lead to breast cancer

Shen Qian replied: "Alright, goodbye"

After some time had passed, Shen Qian began to feel drowsy again, yet she was still a bit distant from sleep, existing in a state of half-sleep and half-wakefulness

She has arrived, so he cannot continue like this any longer

Shen Qian walked over and said, "Let me see your hand."

Shen Qian placed You Ran's hand on her waist, and her nerves instantly tensed up, as if her bodily functions had come to a halt. She stiffly said: "You can take it off."

You Ran opened the door and asked in confusion, "What happened to Miss Shen?"

But this is clearly a case of asking a question with full knowledge of the answer. Could Shen Qian possibly guide him from behind with her hands turned away? Shen Qian tried her best to hold back, "Just touch wherever you like." After all, it's just the back, nothing serious.

Shen Qian took out a light blue nightgown from the wardrobe and handed it to him, "This is the outfit you will change into later." Shen Qian was now even afraid to look at him. You Ran took it and placed it on his right side, resuming his silence.

Shen Qian pressed her lips tightly together, gazing at the calm man in front of her, who was as composed as a book. She made a concerted effort to maintain her composure, took a deep breath, and her left hand moved slightly, wanting to reach out and touch the large hand that belonged to a man, which was placed not far from her.

Shen Qian's originally terrified feelings were replaced by a sense of defeat from spitting blood and dying. She had just wanted to ask him what he intended to do. Yet, You Ran understood it as, "Do you mean to 'do'?" (The term 'do' colloquially refers to making love, as commonly said in certain places)

Shen Qian was somewhat taken aback. She knew that this man was hurt in his pride, and she didn't know how to comfort him, so she could only smile and say, "It's fine, I can pour it myself." As she spoke, Shen Qian took a porcelain cup from the coffee table and poured herself a cup of hot water by the water dispenser. "Hiss..." Shen Qian's tongue was scalded, and feeling a bit awkward, she said, "This water is really hot; it burned my lips."

Mr. You, do you have any medicine here

"It's nothing." You Ran retracted his right hand slightly behind him, while Shen Qian still held onto his arm and examined it closely. His skin was excessively pale, and the redness was quite pronounced, clearly indicating a burn. Shen Qian shifted his gaze to the broken porcelain on the ground; it turned out to be a shattered porcelain cup. The light bulb in the lamp that had also fallen to the ground was broken, which was why it had made such a loud noise

* * *

She is still a cow now, but it is a dairy cow

"I do not wish to work; I only want to take that piece of clothing, Miss Shen," You Ran said with utmost seriousness

You Ran remained completely still, his eyelids lowered, the fan-shaped eyelashes casting a shadow that obscured the complexity in Shen Qian's gaze. His expression appeared quite calm, but it was limited to that kind of calm one might see just before a volcanic eruption.

"It's nothing." He spat out these two words after a long pause, and anyone could tell that this "nothing" certainly meant there was something. Shen Qian looked at him in confusion, scrutinizing him from top to bottom to find what was amiss, and finally noticed that the fingers of his right hand were all red.

Shen Qian chuckled softly, feeling that the reaction was somewhat exaggerated, unlike her usual demeanor of remaining unperturbed in the face of great danger. Just now, the grip she had on her was indeed quite strong; fortunately, it was not her injured right hand, otherwise, it would be truly unimaginable.

"Raise your hands, it's difficult to take off a pullover-style garment." You Ran slightly lifted the hem of Shen Qian's waist, exposing a bit of flesh. A rush of cold air seeped in, causing Shen Qian to shiver all over, and she immediately raised her hands in a gesture of surrender

"First... please help me take off this T-shirt." With each word Shen Qian spoke, she felt her heart racing, her face burning with embarrassment. You Ran's lips curled into a faint smile, her beautiful brows slightly raised, "You need to guide me; otherwise, I won't be able to help you either"

You Ran nodded and then went out. Shen Qian watched him leave, her face involuntarily starting to burn again. She was puzzled; usually, even when she blushed, it would only last for a moment, so why was she still blushing this time

Shen Qian secretly despised You Ran, thinking that he must have often watched adult films in the past, and was no longer surprised by women. Just look at his face, so calm and natural. Perhaps his practical skills are also quite strong. In Li Meili's words, "Men from wealthy families are the least reliable; they have no worries about food or clothing, and thus indulge in women out of boredom. They are usually experts in bed"

Shen Qian felt weak again, her entire body leaning against the sofa, her head heavy. You Ran gritted her teeth, "Wait here, I will get you a cup of hot water." You Ran suddenly stood up.

You... Shen Qian gritted her teeth, feeling that it was unfair for him to take advantage of her and even mock her. How could there be such a despicable person? Moreover, Li Meili has mentioned that Shen Qian has a very standard S-shaped figure, tall and with well-defined curves. Describing Shen Qian as having a "good figure" is by no means an exaggeration. With a waist of 1.7 meters, how could she be considered a barrel?

You Ran chuckled and said, "Can your wrist move? Or should I do it?" Suddenly, You Ran leaned down, enveloping Shen Qian in his broad embrace. Although they did not touch, the proximity was close enough that Shen Qian could feel his warmth. She immediately fled, tightly clutching the blanket, and looked at the man who had suddenly come close to her with fear, asking, "What do you want to do?"

He came downstairs to boil water; this was his first time boiling water, and he did not know how long it would take for the water to become warm. Relying on his own instincts to fill the kettle, he could not tell when the water would overflow. He realized that the small details of life he had never considered before were now presenting him with such difficulties. All he could see now was light, along with some overly vague images. This home was too familiar to him, allowing him to navigate it effortlessly, just like a normal person, while all the daily matters were handled by the housekeeper or Old Zhang. Yet now, he understood that his previously comfortable "blind" life was utterly powerless; he could not even pour her a glass of water. What right did he have to attempt to turn the tide?

Shen Qian felt her face flush, wanting to turn away. Although she knew You Ran couldn't see her, she still felt awkward being in front of a man, "exposing herself." She casually pulled the blanket over her body, turned around, and snatched the nightgown, saying, "I'll put it on myself."

You Ran skillfully helped her take off the T-shirt. Shen Qian turned around, facing away from him, and said, "Help me unhook my bra."

What happened? Shen Qian immediately ran down and asked You Ran, "What is going on?"

And it continued on. Shen Qian felt very tired, so she simply lay down to sleep. Soon, she fell into a deep sleep, unaware of anything.

You Ran retracted his hand and self-deprecatingly said, "I am truly useless; you are ill, and I can't even manage to pour a glass of water, yet I've made a mess of this place."

You Ran extended her other hand to the other side of her waist and chuckled, "A bucket waist."

"If you don't guide me this time, I might take advantage of it, you know?" You Ran smiled slightly, revealing a hint of innocence

After You Ran finished dressing Shen Qian, she stood up on her own and said, "You should rest well, I will be going out"

You Ran had a pair of pampered hands, which, even when cold as ice, felt smooth against Shen Qian's back. The coolness of the palms was irresistible in the sweltering summer heat. At first, Shen Qian was very resistant, feeling shy in her heart, but in the end, she was conquered by that chill, and unexpectedly developed a sense of greed.

Shen Qian completely worshipped You Ran, saying to the girl that this matter was surprisingly so ordinary, although she also knew that this matter...

Watching You Ran walk out, Shen Qian closed her eyes again to rest. She felt utterly exhausted, her head heavy, and it was truly uncomfortable. Shen Qian sighed; her constitution was weaker than others, and she would usually catch a cold and develop a fever if she caught a chill. There was a high probability that she would injure herself if she fell, making her akin to a porcelain doll. Shen's mother had once lamented that it was that accident that caused her body to be this way; she used to be as strong as an ox.

Thank you. Shen Qian did not think much about it; she indeed wanted to have a glass of water

At this moment, she felt weak all over, alternating between chills and fever. She sensed that she had a fever. There were no medicines here, and she was unsure whether the man, You Ran, had prepared any medications for common ailments. Gritting her teeth, she stood up and slowly walked out of the room, knocking on You Ran's door.

Miss Shen, I will be going out for a few days

The bedroom that You Ran prepared for Shen Qian is in a water blue tone. When Shen Qian first arrived in this room, she particularly liked it, feeling it was a coincidence, as her favorite color is water blue

Shen Qian was taken aback, bewildered by this sudden question, "Where are you going?"

He did not answer, extending his hand towards her, "Clothes."

You Ran walked over to the landline, dialed a number, and said, "Come over for a while, bring some fever medicine and some porridge. Yes, a lighter porridge." After hanging up the phone, You Ran sat next to Shen Qian and asked, "Is there anything else that is not right?"

This is freshly boiled water. Although You Ran's eyes lacked focus, they always sparkled. At this moment, however, his eyes dimmed as he recalled his earlier ineffectiveness, leaving him with an unpleasant feeling.

Alright. Shen Qian increasingly feels that she is like fish meat at the mercy of others

You Ran merely chuckled softly, her hand lightly brushing against Shen Qian's cool skin. In their cold exchange, You Ran felt even cooler, naturally provoking more of a reaction from Shen Qian. The moment You Ran made contact, Shen Qian couldn't help but shiver.

Shen Qian hesitated and did not dare to boldly take hold of it. After a fierce internal struggle, Shen Qian's indecisive left hand clenched into a fist and then instantly released to grasp You Ran's hand. You Ran's hand was very cold, even colder than Shen Qian's body, which was soaked by the rain.

"There is something." You Ran vaguely brushed it aside. Shen Qian knew he did not want to elaborate, so she did not press further, merely offering a polite reminder, "Be careful on the road"

With no other options, Shen Qian honestly handed over her clothes. Unable to overcome her own barriers, she requested to turn her back to him while exposing her chest. Yu Ran, indifferent, remarked: "It's not like you haven't seen it before, besides, I can't see it anyway"

Shen Qian turned over, feeling cold all over. She wrapped herself in the quilt, yet still felt very cold. She swallowed hard, realizing that her saliva was gone; she was very thirsty. Shen Qian initially intended to get out of bed to pour herself a glass of water, but as soon as she sat up, everything before her was pitch black, and her head spun. Unsteadily, she fell back onto the bed.

Indeed, having served in the military, there is a certain level of physical fitness.

I have not put on my underwear yet

You Ran was taken aback for a moment, directly pulling Shen Qian into the room, bringing her to the sofa. He touched her forehead, then tried his own, frowning and saying: "It is hotter than mine"

Cattle

Finally, as the button was undone, Shen Qian immediately covered her chest with both hands, curling up in place. You Ran groped for the pajamas beside her, felt them, and discovered they were also a pullover style. She couldn't help but smile wryly, "Another pullover, do you need me to help you put it on?"

Shen Qian was left speechless. A veterinarian and a doctor are two different matters, alright? One treats humans, while the other treats animals. There is indeed a distinction between the two, and moreover, she specializes in animal hybridization.

Aren't you a veterinarian

It seems that You Ran should indeed be an expert in bed
