“Then you can make any request you want,” she replied. After all, she only had a limited amount of money and only one life to give.
“Okay,” he responded.
She was taken aback for a moment. ‘Did he just... agree to my request? He’s being rather easy-going.’
“How’s your hand? Is it still burning?” He shifted his gaze back to her hand that was still under the running cold water.
“It doesn’t hurt as much now. Since it has been under the water for some time, I think it should be fine,” she replied.
He then turned off the tap and took out his handkerchief that he always carried with him to wipe her hand dry.
“Do you have any ointment at home? It still looks quite swollen. It’s better if you apply some ointment.”
“Oh, we do.”
“Bring it here now.”
Qin Lianyi ran to her room to fetch the ointment for burned skin. When she got hold of the ointment, she suddenly realized. ‘Why am I so obedient?’
However, that remained as a thought. She still took the ointment and came out of her room. When she stepped out, she saw Bai Tingxin in the living room chatting with her parents.
When she came nearer, she heard her mother say, “Oh, so that’s it. Lianyi sent you back to your hotel room after you got drunk and took care of you the whole night. Lianyi is a kind-hearted girl. We always teach her that it is a joyful thing to be able to extend help to those in need.”
