Chapter 792: Rare Gentleness

Editor: Henyee Translations

An Nuo had never imagined that her next meeting with Murong Chen would be under such a scene and method.

Thinking about how the other party had seen her embarra.s.sing appearance just now, An Nuo couldn’t help but blush in embarra.s.sment. She didn’t say anything along the way and felt a sense of social death.

When they arrived at the private room, An Nuo realized that there was no one around. As soon as she relaxed, she heard Murong Chen speak.

“You sit here first. I’ll go out for a while.”

After Murong Chen settled her in the private room, he turned around and left, not giving An Nuo a chance to speak.

Hearing the sound of the door opening and closing, the private room returned to silence. An Nuo secretly looked in the direction of the private room’s door and realized that the other party really didn’t seem to have any intention of returning immediately. She couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief.

Knowing that Murong Chen had disappeared, An Nuo, who had been a little tense just now, relaxed her body and sat on the chair.

She quietly took out her left hand that she had been hiding behind her back just now. She frowned when she saw the obvious redness and even some purple marks on it.

Actually, the pain had already dissipated a lot. The feeling from the marks was more numb.

What worried An Nuo the most was that this trace would affect her filming for a few days. Even if she applied medicine, it might not be able to heal immediately. It would probably take a few days to gradually heal.

It seemed that she couldn’t attend public events for the next few days.

An Nuo sighed sadly. When she thought of the reporters and paparazzi who could write an entire fantasy series no matter what details they could catch, her head began to ache slightly.

She reached out and rubbed her temples. Just as she was planning to go home and ask her manager to bring her some medicine, she heard Murong Chen push open the door and walk in.

An Nuo instinctively wanted to hide her hand back, but Murong Chen walked in front of her faster.

“Give me your hand,” Murong Chen said to her in an unquestionable tone.

An Nuo shook her head stubbornly. “Actually, it’s nothing…”

After all, she was in front of the person she liked. She was really not used to making a fool of herself and showing her weak side.

Murong Chen didn’t say anything or force her. He just opened his palm in front of her and gestured for An Nuo to extend her hand.

He didn’t say anything, but this unquestionable att.i.tude really made An Nuo feel a little helpless, as if the other party had infinite patience. An Nuo was silent for a long time. Seeing that Murong Chen still didn’t intend to dispel this thought, she had no choice but to slowly move her hand out from behind her back, but she was still a little embarra.s.sed.

“I’m really fine,” An Nuo added guiltily.

However, looking at the red marks on her wrist, she didn’t look fine. After Murong Chen saw the shocking scratches, his brows raised, and even the corners of his mouth, which was pursed into a straight line, began to tighten slightly. It showed that he was not in a good mood at the moment.

As expected, the lesson just now was not enough.

Thinking of how he had let the other party go with just a few words, Murong Chen felt a little regretful and annoyed.

Then, without waiting for An Nuo to react, he half squatted down and placed the medicine box he had just gone out to look for. Then, he held the other party’s injured wrist in his left palm and started to take out the necessary supplies from the medicine box with his right hand.

“I’m not sure if it will hurt. If it’s too painful, you must tell me.” Murong Chen looked at the medicine, then pursed his lips and said softly.

He had never helped others treat their wounds, so he was a little confused about An Nuo’s injuries. Fortunately, the medicine packaging had the use of every medicine written on it, so it greatly resolved Murong Chen’s problem.

“Actually, I can handle it myself—”

An Nuo wanted to say that, but her words were interrupted by Murong Chen’s actions.

The originally cold medicinal alcohol felt a little warm when it came into contact with the other party’s warm and dry palm. Then, it was pressed against the wound that had just been grabbed and slowly rubbed. It carried a light and careful force.

It was an indescribable feeling for An Nuo. However, when she saw how careful Murong Chen was, she couldn’t help but smile slightly. For some reason, a kitten that was licking a marshmallow appeared in her mind.

An Nuo didn’t dare to move her wrist that was held by the other party. Hence, she sat obediently in her seat and didn’t say a word, concentrating on enjoying the peace at this moment. However, her silent appearance made Murong Chen misunderstand. From time to time, he would raise his head to confirm An Nuo’s condition.

“Don’t worry, just rub it. It really doesn’t hurt.”

When Murong Chen looked up to confirm her condition for the third time, An Nuo finally couldn’t help but add with a smile.

Even though it was originally painful, the shallow and small pain slowly disappeared under Murong Chen’s gentle ma.s.sage.

She didn’t know if it was a psychological effect, but An Nuo felt that this medicinal rub was very effective. The warm touch made her feel much better. Even the numbing and slightly unconscious pain from before receded like the tide.

“Okay.”

Murong Chen nodded. Then, without saying a word, he began to ma.s.sage An Nuo’s wrist.

He had just seen the explanation in the manual. It said that this medicinal rub would take at least 20 minutes of rubbing to have a certain effect.

However, when he looked at the obviously fair and slender wrist in his palm, even the slightly protruding joint looked so delicate and beautiful. Murong Chen moved slightly and secretly suppressed the sudden restlessness in his heart. He focused on rubbing the other party’s wound.

“Speaking of which, why are you here?” In the silence, An Nuo couldn’t help but ask curiously.

Murong Chen answered very quickly. “I’m just here to discuss business. I didn’t expect to be so fated.”

“If not for you, I wouldn’t know how to escape.” An Nuo thanked him very sincerely. In the end, she thought of something and suddenly couldn’t help but laugh.

“It’s nothing. Even if it wasn’t me, the others would help if they saw it.”

Murong Chen didn’t take credit for it and only replied casually.

However, he was a little concerned about the situation between An Nuo and the other party just now. That was clearly not a work matter, especially since that man was still pestering An Nuo unilaterally. Hence, after a moment of silence, Murong Chen still asked tactfully out of his own thoughts.

“What about you? What are you doing here today?”

An Nuo didn’t expect Murong Chen to turn around and ask her. She was slightly stunned and didn’t feel that there was anything she couldn’t say, so she told Murong Chen her purpose and reason for coming here today.

To be honest, after excluding An Nuo’s work arrangements, Murong Chen had thought of countless possibilities, but he didn’t expect it to be a blind date.

When he heard the word “matchmaking” from An Nuo’s mouth, his hands couldn’t help but pause for a moment. Then, he continued kneading without changing his expression, as if nothing had happened.

“You don’t look like someone who needs a blind date,” Murong Chen said honestly.

Although he didn’t have a deep understanding of An Nuo, after interacting with her a few times and getting to know her, he could tell that she was an outstanding person with superior abilities..
