Yin Shaojie took out something else from the medicine box. It was a spray, and he sprayed it onto the red, swollen area.

Tch! Mu Xiaoxiao gritted her teeth.

"Pain?" he asked.

Mu Xiaoxiao shook her head and hugged the pillow awkwardly below her nose as she said softly, "It"s not pain. It"s a cooling feeling…"

"Yeah. This is for pain relief so that when I apply the medicine, you won"t feel that it"s very painful. Okay, I"m going to apply the medicine. Be good and don"t move about." He explained as he put the cream onto his hand. Then, with his long fingers, he carefully applied the medicine for her.

Mu Xiaoxiao simply didn"t know what to do with him, so she had no choice but to endure it.

However, just like he said, when he applied the medicine, it really didn"t hurt. It only felt a little numb.

After ten minutes, Mu Xiaoxiao was getting a little impatient. "Are you done?"

Wasn"t this taking a bit too long?

Was his finger not tired?

"That"s how you use this medicine. You have to slowly ma.s.sage it and let the medicine be absorbed. This way, it"ll get better faster. Bear with it for a little longer," Yin Shaojie said as he very patiently continued to apply the medicine for her.

Mu Xiaoxiao initially felt that there was a burning sensation. She wondered if it was the medicine taking effect. It felt comfortable. As she lay there, she almost fell asleep.

Yin Shaojie finally was done applying the medicine. He looked up and saw her in a daze.

He chuckled. Putting the medicine cream back onto the coffee table, his elegant face went up to her as lightly caressed her lips.

Mu Xiaoxiao"s eyelids lifted, and she looked at him in a dazed state.

"Jie…"

Hearing her calling him, his body jolted. He eagerly grabbed her shoulder and asked, "What did you call me?"

Was she regaining her memory?

When her memory was lost, she never called him in that.

Yin Shaojie jaw tightened as he stared at her little face eagerly. He shook her again and said, "Xiaoxiao, wake up. Can you call me again?"

Mu Xiaoxiao"s eyes blinked drowsily, and she muttered in a hoa.r.s.e voice. "Jie… I"m thirsty. I want to drink water…"

With that said, she rolled over and laid on her side, hugging a pillow in her arms and between her legs.

This was her usual habit. She liked to hug things when she slept.

Yin Shaojie"s heart trembled. "You"re thirsty? I"ll go get some water for you. Wait here."

He thought as he walked. Was the blood clot in her brain slowly going away?

He got a little excited just thinking about it, quickly poured some water, and went back to her.

"Here. Drink some water," he said, wanting to help her up.

But Mu Xiaoxiao closed her eyes again, her face rubbing against the sofa.

The morning sun rays were bright and pleasant. Moreover, she had been tormented by him last night and was very tired. She was forced to wake up because of the discomfort at her inner thigh. Now that she wasn"t hurting anymore, fatigue came over her, so she wanted to continue sleeping.

As he watched her, he felt as though he didn"t know what to do with her, yet he still longed for her to call him "Joe" again. Pondering for a moment, he then brought the cup to his lips, took a sip of water, lowered his head, and put his lips on her little mouth.

Their lips fit tightly together, and he pa.s.sed the water to her.

Mu Xiaoxiao almost choked. Her throat moved up and down as she reflexively swallowed the water.

After drinking the water, her eyes opened slightly and looked at him again.
