When Qin Lu’s lips met the soft, cool touch of her fingertips, his body shuddered, and his eyes suddenly turned deep and thick as ink.
He slightly parted his lips, letting his teeth gently nibble on her soft fingertip.
Nan Yan felt like an explosion of fireworks had gone off in her mind.
Her small hand, as if shocked, quickly withdrew, and her usually clear and cool eyes now carried a blush.
She avoided his gaze, not daring to meet his eyes.
She didn’t know what had come over her to make her act like this!
“Yanyan… ”
Qin Lu’s voice was incredibly husky, filled with indescribable desire.
His warm hand remained tightly against her back, and the heat from his palm made Nan Yan want to shiver.
Nan Yan was already entranced by him from the beginning. Hearing his seductive tone, she didn’t hesitate and propped herself up on the sofa, her upper body leaning forward.
Her pure yet alluring face loomed larger in Qin Lu’s eyes, but he didn’t make any move. His dark eyes were fixed on her, as if he wanted to see what she intended to do.
As they got closer, their breaths intertwined in ambiguity. They were now just inches apart, but Nan Yan suddenly pulled back.
No, she shouldn’t take advantage of the situation…
Currently, Qin Lu was an injured patient, and it wasn’t right to exploit the situation like this.
She used this as an excuse to convince herself, blinked her eyes, suppressed the impulse in her heart, and moved backward.
Qin Lu narrowed his eyes and suddenly reached out to grab her waist, causing her to stumble into his arms when she had intended to retreat.
Nan Yan’s eyes showed a hint of panic. In her haste, she remembered Qin Lu’s leg injury and didn’t want to put pressure on his legs.
She quickly placed her hands on the wheelchair’s handles to avoid his legs.
Qin Lu held Nan Yan, and his hands didn’t wander. He just supported her waist, and his abyss-like eyes locked onto her.
“Little girl, why did you stop?”
Earlier, he had even anticipated that she would take the initiative to give him a kiss.
However, when the critical moment came, she retreated, leaving him excited and disappointed.
Nan Yan’s thoughts were exposed, and she didn’t try to hide it. However, in this position, she still felt a bit shy.
She bit her lip, suppressing her wildly beating heart, and looked innocent as she said, “Seeing that you have a leg injury, I didn’t want to take advantage of you.”
Qin Lu’s breath paused for a moment before he burst into laughter.
He gritted his teeth, wanting to take a bite of her rosy lips.
But he couldn’t bear to.
He forcibly restrained the impulse to kiss her passionately, and his voice was husky as he said, “Yanyan, when my leg is better, how would you like to take advantage of me?”
Nan Yan: ‘
These kinds of thoughts were meant to be kept in one’s mind and not spoken out loud!
She adjusted her posture, trying to create some distance between them while wearing a smile, teasing him deliberately, “Those things, well, you’ll find out when you’re betterQin Lu: “…”
The little girl had learned some bad habits…
“Brother, let go, I want to get up.”
Qin Lu realized that continuing in this position could lead to him losing control at any moment. He released her and allowed her to sit up. After Nan Yan sat down, Qin Lu looked at her and asked, “Still in pain?”
“Hmm?” Nan Yan didn’t react immediately to his question.
What was he asking?
What was hurting?
If anything, it was his leg that should be hurting.
“Your back, the cramped area,” Qin Lu explained as his hand gently caressed her back.
This time, he behaved very gentlemanly, just indicating the area with his finger, without any other actions.
“I’m fine now,” Nan Yan sighed. “It seems that drinking only milk every day isn’t enough. The amount of calcium I’m getting isn’t sufficient to meet my body’s needs. I’ll have to add some herbal soups in the future…”
As an apprentice of the Divine Physician, it would be unacceptable if she couldn’t even maintain her own body properly.
If it were any other person’s body, with her direct care, they would have recovered long ago.
Unfortunately, the original host’s body had been severely damaged, and it had been injured at its foundation.
To have nurtured it to its current state was already quite remarkable. However, returning to the original level of physical fitness seemed unlikely.
Qin Lu ruffled her hair and said, “If you want to eat something, just let the kitchen know, and they’ll prepare it for you.”
Nan Yan replied, “Okay.”
After Qin Lu left Nan Yan’s room, he couldn’t help but sigh.
It seemed that his self-control in front of the little girl was getting worse and worse.
Certain thoughts that pushed the boundaries would always surface uncontrollably.
But he couldn’t act on them…
Just endure a little longer; there was still one more year…
In the room, Nan Yan gazed absentmindedly in the direction of the door.
After a while, she snapped out of it, rubbing her own cheeks.
Hmm, her body temperature today was much higher than usual.
She really lacked courage.
She couldn’t believe how timid she had become, perhaps because it was because of Qin Lu?
Rubbing her forehead, Nan Yan slipped on her slippers, fetched her laptop from the bedroom, and settled back on the couch to research some things.
Meanwhile, in M Country, a new storm was brewing.
Xi Shijin’s team had finally commenced mass production of the T-1 reagent!
