Chapter 162 Is It Really You?
Chao quickly picked up the mask and covered his face with it. He was shocked by several flashes of light and no longer cared about the girl in the muddy water. Although he moved quickly, he still got stabbed!
He turned around to escape, but a man in a silver mask stopped him. The masked man kicked Chao in the stomach and knocked him to the ground.
The masked man took out his knife again with a murderous look in his eyes. When he was about to hit Chao with the knife, the girl not far away let out a low moan of anguish. Chao quickly got up from the ground and ran away when the masked man was distracted by the girl's moan.
Yun Jue didn't dare neglect the girl, so he immediately put away the knife and walked over to Mu Nuanxin. He carefully held her in a hug and asked nervously, "Wake up! How do you feel?"
"Mr. Yun, is it really you?" Mu Nuanxin opened her eyes weakly and extended her hand to touch his mask.
"You mistake me for someone else. I'm not Mr. Yun! Can you walk? I'll take you out of here!" He gently avoided her hand and then helped her get up. However, she was too weak to walk.
"Climb on my back. I'll carry you!" Yun Jue lost his right arm, so he could only hold her arm with his left hand. After throwing her on his back, he left quickly.
Mu Nuanxin, who was on his back, felt relieved because she knew she was safe.
The rain became heavier. After quite a while, they reached a small house in the mountains. Yun Jue walked into the house, carefully placed her on the ground and then turned on the light.
"How do you feel? Can you move?" He quickly went back to her side and carefully wiped her wet hair out of her eyes.
Mu Nuanxin shook her head in pain. She was very weak and felt pain all over her body. Tears ran down her face again.
Yun Jue was heartbroken while looking at her, but he didn't dare express his feelings for fear that she would notice something.
"Where do you hurt?" he asked in a deep voice. His fingers trembled as his suppressed voice was unsteady.
"I have a burn on my back. Mr. Yun, I'm hurt. I feel cold!" Mu Nuanxin extended her hand with a sad look on her face. Tears kept rolling down her face. She trusted him, just like she trusted her family.
Yun Jue was shocked to hear that she was injured. He held her in a hug with his left hand, took off her dirty coat, unfastened the zip on the back of her blouse and removed the wet bandages slowly. The burn came into sight. It became red and badly swollen because it got wet in the rain.
Her injury was severe. He must apply medicine to her injury and keep her warm to prevent her from having a fever. However, she was too weak to move now, let alone treat her injury by herself.
Although he hesitated, he must make a decision for her health. "I'm sorry, but I have to take off your wet clothes to apply medicine to your injury," he said while holding her face.
He froze and couldn't help getting aroused when seeing her perfect nude body. He averted his eyes embarrassedly, covered her with a blanket, got the towel soaked in hot water and lifted up the blanket to wipe her cold body.
Mu Nuanxin blushed scarlet. No one had ever seen her nude body except Long Qingyue. She knew the man did so to save her and he would never hurt her, so she could only endure the embarrassment with her eyes closed.
She felt better when she felt the warmth of the towel. After finishing wiping her body clumsily, Yun Jue sweated a lot. His body couldn't help shaking when he felt the softness of her body.
He put some ointment on her back, wrapped the blanket around her, picked her up with one hand and walked to another room so she could take a rest.
They looked at each other. A heavy silence filled the air. Although he wore a mask, Mu Nuanxin knew that he must have blushed too.
Yun Jue put her on the bed. She felt warm when lying on the soft fur blanket. He took off the blanket wrapped around her and covered her with a new thick one.
After finishing everything, he breathed a sigh of relief. However, her nude body still flashed through his mind.
"You can sleep if you're tired. I'll get some food for you." When he was about to leave, Mu Nuanxin grabbed the edge of his coat.
"Mr. Yun, I'm not hungry. Please don't leave me alone. I'm scared." She looked up at him pathetically and burst into tears again. She was really happy to see him again and afraid that he would disappear like last time.
"Okay, I'm not leaving. I'll be here with you." Yun Jue immediately returned and squatted down beside her.
"You admit that you are Mr. Yun, right? Mr. Yun, I really miss you." Mu Nuanxin suddenly got up and wrapped her arms around his neck tightly.
She missed him so much. Every time she thought of him, she felt heartbroken. She had prayed that she was willing to pay any price if he could come back.
"You're really mistaken. I'm not the person you said. You should take a rest first. I need to change my clothes." Yun Jue froze and then pushed her hand away slowly. He put her back on the bed and left without looking back.
Mu Nuanxin watched him walk out of the room quickly. Her heart ached when she saw his empty sleeve. Although she wanted to ask him to stay, the words stuck in her throat. Tears streamed down her face.
Yun Jue came back in a white shirt and black pants. He was still tall, but his right arm was missing. He walked over to her with a bowl of noodles in his left hand.
"Are you hungry? You can eat the noodles. They'll warm you up." Yun Jue put the noodles on the table, but Mu Nuanxin was lying motionless and turned her back to him. Her body was trembling.
Yun Jue was stunned and then asked, "What's wrong?"
"I'm fine. I just don't want to eat. I have no appetite," she replied in a choked voice. She really had no appetite when seeing his current condition. He had suffered a lot of pain because of her.
