After rebirth, I rejected the rich yandere lady-Chapter 478 - 221: The Redemption of Fate, The Changed Xiao Sickly Cutie._2

He held Yao Mingyue tightly in his arms and ran to the clinic next to the hotel.

The doctor hurried back to check on her and immediately arranged a private room for her.

"Thankfully, she’s just weak and a bit hypothermic. Go get a fresh set of clothes and a warm towel to change the patient."

Xu Musen didn’t dare to delay, he ran back to the hotel, took new clothes from Yao Mingyue’s suitcase, and rushed back.

The doctor had prepared hot water and a warm towel and handed them to Xu Musen.

"Help the patient change clothes and use the warm towel to wipe her body. I’ll prepare some medicinal soup."

As the doctor gave instructions, he suddenly noticed Xu Musen was also drenched: "Why haven’t you changed your clothes?"

"No time, I’m fine."

Xu Musen shook his head; to be honest, his head ached a bit, but he still took the basin and warm towel.

The doctor nodded in understanding, sincere affection like this was rare to see.

"There are hospital gowns in the room’s closet; change into one of those, and I’ll prepare some medicinal soup for you as well."

"Thank you, Doctor."

Xu Musen nodded and walked into the sickroom.

Yao Mingyue lay on the hospital bed, pale as a sheet; she had always been sensitive to the cold, and now her body shivered uncontrollably.

Xu Musen went over and gently placed the warm towel on her forehead.

Seeing her damp clothes, Xu Musen didn’t hesitate, as for any issues of responsibility, they could be discussed later.

He drew the curtain, began to gently help Yao Mingyue remove her clothes. Her skin was naturally fair and delicate, but now it was frighteningly pale, as if drained of blood.

After removing her clothes, Xu Musen looked at the girl’s undergarments, pausing only for a moment.

The icy lake water, if left clinging to the skin, especially for girls, might lead to illness.

Xu Musen reached out and helped her take them off as well.

The girl’s body was like the most meticulously carved and perfect piece of art, without a single flaw.

But Xu Musen had no desire to admire it at the moment; Yao Mingyue lay on the bed, terribly cold and shivering, so he quickly took out the clothes and dressed her.

He then dried the water on her hair.

Using the warm towel, he gently wiped her body, slowly bringing some color back to her skin.

Soon, a young nurse came with disinfectant, observing Xu Musen drenched while earnestly tending to his girlfriend.

She had heard about the accident at the ice skating rink, where a father and daughter had fallen into the water, and a young couple had heroically saved them.

It seemed this couple was the one.

Moved, she said to Xu Musen: "Go and change your clothes, I’ll take care of the patient’s wounds for you."

Xu Musen noticed several cuts on Yao Mingyue’s right hand, inflicted by the ice. The wounds weren’t deep, but they were stark against her fair skin.

Xu Musen didn’t interfere with the nurse’s disinfection and dressing of the wounds.

He turned around, went behind the curtain, took a hospital gown from the closet, and changed out of his wet and cold clothes.

At that moment, on the hospital bed, Yao Mingyue felt the sting of the disinfectant on her palm; she coughed, her head a mess, unable to remember how she ended up there. But still, in her mind, one name echoed: "Musen..."

Xu Musen quickly went over, standing in front of the bed. Yao Mingyue’s vision was blurred as she lifted her left hand, frantically searching for something.

Xu Musen gently held her left hand, which was terrifyingly cold as if the bones themselves might freeze.

Xu Musen gently cradled her hand in his palm, rubbing it gently and breathing warm air over it.

"I’m here."

Xu Musen drew closer to her, slowly beginning to speak.

Yao Mingyue’s vision finally cleared, and the first thing she saw was the person she most wanted to see. On noticing Xu Musen wearing a hospital gown, a sense of panic unconsciously swept over her feeble cheeks.

"You... are you sick?"

"The one who’s sick is you."

Xu Musen felt an indescribable emotion upon seeing her panicked expression, and he reached out to lightly touch her forehead.

It was still slightly hot.

"The wound has been treated, I will bring the medicinal soup shortly; you both rest for a while." Stay connected with novelbuddy

The young nurse packed up the disinfectant, looking at the couple with admiration and envy for their bravery and deep affection in these times.

She couldn’t help but say, "He was taking care of you with wet clothes until just now. I had him change into dry ones. Don’t get too emotional, and take your time to recover."

After speaking, she tactfully left.

In the sickroom.

The two exchanged silent glances, feeling the aftermath of a close escape.

Now that Yao Mingyue knew he was alright, her emotions seemed to calm a bit. She stared intently at Xu Musen.

Her weary phoenix eyes overflowed with countless emotions. She lifted her injured right hand and waved it slightly towards Xu Musen, seemingly wanting to say something.

Xu Musen bent down slowly, bringing his face close to hers.

"Smack!"

But the next moment, Yao Mingyue slapped Xu Musen with her injured hand. It didn’t hurt much, or at least, not nearly as much as the pain of her torn wounds.

"You... have you lost your mind to the cold?"

Xu Musen was stunned by the slap.

"It’s your mind that’s muddled!"

Yao Mingyue’s emotions surge once again as she looked at Xu Musen: "You idiot! Why did you recklessly go save others? Don’t you know, I..."
