Maid?
Lu Hualiang raised his eyebrow.
Then, he replied expressionlessly, “All the maids have gone on holiday.”
“On holiday?” Xia Weibao replied suspiciously. “When did they go off? They were still here at dinner time.”
“After dinner, Uncle Fu gave them time off to allow the maids to accompany their children for the examination in a few days’ time.”
Great! He had said it beautifully.
The college examination was indeed important. It could be said to be the greatest turning point in one’s life. Indeed, it was necessary to go all out preparing for it.
Xia Weibao felt that Lu Hualiang was rather humane.
It was just that…
“Can you help me call a part-time nurse over?”
“It’s already so late. Nurses need to sleep too.”
Xia Weibao was in a dilemma and her eyebrows were deeply furrowed.
“Nurses and maids. What exactly do you want to do? It’s so hard just to go to bed.”
Lu Hualiang did not blush, and neither did his heart rate increase. He was a professional at lying.
Xia Weibao was slightly embarrassed. “The wounds are on my back. I can’t apply the ointment myself…”
Lu Hualiang, who had already gotten the medicine, leapt with joy. This was the outcome he had been waiting for.
But would he admit it?
Negative.
He looked at her in disgust, “How troublesome.”
Then, he sat down beside the bed and reached out to lift up her clothes.
Xia Weibao was shocked and instantly protected her chest with her arms. “What are you doing?”
“Helping you apply your ointment. Hurry. I want to sleep even if you don’t.”
What?
He was going to apply the ointment for her?
Was he shameless?
“No… no need…”
“You mean you are able to do it on your own? Or should I call Uncle Fu to help you with it?”
Xia Weibao: “…”
She would rather not apply the ointment at all…
She reached for her phone. “I’ll call Xiang Chu over to help.”
“Xiang Chu?” Lu Hualiang’s eyes narrowed.
“That’s right. He’s my disciple.”
“Xia Weibao, you’re calling a man to help you apply the ointment?”
Xia Weibao frowned. Why was she hearing the sound of teeth grinding?
It was probably just her imagination.
“Xiang Chu is a doctor. In his eyes, I’m just a patient. You don’t differentiate between male and female patients.”
“In my eyes, you are a patient as well. Besides, I’m your husband. You’re making people travel around at such a late hour. Don’t other people need to sleep as well? I can’t believe you’re so selfish. Hurry. Apply your ointment and go to bed.”
Xia Weibao was utterly embarrassed by his words.
Indeed, it was too late to make others travel around for her. It would disrupt their sleep.
It was just that letting Lu Hualiang apply the ointment for her…
She felt uneasy.
If this man was the emperor Xia Liang, it would be fine. But it was a person who looked like the emperor, but was not him.
Yet, Lu Hualiang did not give her a chance to reject him as he had already lifted up her shirt..
Xia Weibao had no other choice. “Wait.”
Then, she reached out to unbutton the front button.
After unbuttoning it, she immediately used the blanket to cover her front.
Only then did she let Lu Hualiang help her to remove her shirt.
“Why bother covering? Who is going to look at you?”
Xia Weibao: “…”
Why did she hear dissatisfaction in his voice? Was it just an illusion?
With her shirt off, Lu Hualiang’s mouth was feeling a little dry at the sight of her back.
It was obviously riddled with wounds and there was pink flesh growing out from the black and burnt flesh. But it looked dangerously tempting.
His body was feeling a little hot.
He had to admit that Xia Weibao had a good figure.
There were two butterfly bones that lay on her two slender shoulders. Her long back and shoulder blades were prominent. Her slender waist accentuated her curves, which extended to her hips, which were even more attractive…
Splat. A drop of an unknown red liquid suddenly dropped on Lu Hualiang’s hand.
