“Dan Hanjie…” Qin Youxuan nervously licked her lips, “Why are you helping me so much?”

“What do you think?” Dan Hanjie’s wicked eyes narrowed, radiating a captivating shine.

Qin Youxuan only wished to slap herself hard, to avoid being captivated by his dazzling charm.

Dan Hanjie glanced at her reaction and smirked satisfactorily.

“Although you didn’t get severe burns, you have quite a few bruises. Stay here and rest for now. I will handle everything. You can leave once you have recovered completely.”

“There were three people who kidnapped me. Only the boss went to collect the payment. And then, the one who died…” Qin Youxuan, remembering the bloody scene, couldn’t help but tighten her lips nervously.

“No need to think about that, I’ll handle it.” Dan Hanjie stroked her head, released her, and stood up from the side of the bed.

He left the room for a while, only to return with an ice pack in his hand.

“Come here.”

Qin Youxuan stared at the ice pack in his hand, momentarily stunned. Meeting his authoritative gaze, she dared not protest and obediently moved to the edge of the bed.

“Hiss—-”

As soon as the ice pack touched her face, Qin Youxuan winced in pain and tried to push his hand away.

But upon seeing Dan Hanjie raise his brow, she bit her lip and endured it.

“Apply ice first, then some medicine; the swelling will subside faster.” Seeing her brows knitted, Dan Hanjie calmly verbalized his instructions.

His cool demeanor mysteriously became quite soothing.

They were sitting so closely that he could distinctly smell her sweet scent, causing his heart to skip a beat.

Thinking of her nearly dying in a fire, Dan Hanjie’s flirtatious eyes darkened, reflecting a dangerous light.

Whoever dared touch his woman had to pay the price.

“Are we done? My face is numb from the cold.” Qin Youxuan blinked her innocent cat-like eyes at the obviously distracted Dan Hanjie and mumbled quietly.

Otherwise, she was more likely to be frostbitten than just bruised if he didn’t remove the ice pack soon.

Realizing her discomfort, Dan Hanjie hesitated. Seeing her rigid face, he leisurely removed the ice pack.

He threw it onto the bedside table.

He firmly held Qin Youxuan’s chin, “Where else does it hurt?”

Everywhere hurts, but your attention seems to make the pain even worse!

Though resentful, Qin Youxuan kept silent and merely shook her head thoughtfully. Her eyes landed on a glass of water near him and she swallowed.

Her throat seemed to be hurt, and having spoken so much after waking up, she was quite thirsty.

“Thirsty?” Dan Hanjie glanced in the direction of her gaze, raising an eyebrow.

“Yes.” Qin Youxuan obediently nodded.

She was truly thirsty and didn’t have the energy to appease Master. She just wanted a drink of water quickly.

As she was about to get out of the bed to get a drink, she saw Dan Hanjie was one step ahead of her, walking to the table and picking up the glass of water.

Before Qin Youxuan could appreciate his thoughtfulness, she saw Dan Hanjie lifting the glass, arching his brow.

“Plea me, and I might consider.”

She must please him to get a drink of water. Has this guy considered that she is currently injured at all?!

Just as she was about to complain, Dan Hanjie stepped forward, placed his hand on the back of her head, laid a kiss on her lips, and then drew back.

He passed the glass into her hand and coldly tossed two words at her.

“Dumbass.”

His disdainful glance made her feel as though he was laughing at her for not knowing how to appease a man.

With that, Qin Youxuan felt utterly aggrieved by this drink of water!
