Can't Take My Eyes Off You

Lu Xingzhi obediently took off his shirt. Jiang Yao was naturally in charge of his medication and dressing changes because he needed them daily.

"Do get water onto your wound. Simply wipe it with a wet towel if you can't stand it. Don't go to training now that it is cold outside. Don't sweat, so you don't need to shower," Jiang Yao said as she applied the medicine.

Lu Xingzhi grunted and said, "I sweated last night."

"Why did you sweat last night? Did you fight someone?" Jiang Yao panicked when she heard that. She thought Lu Xingzhi had been hiding his injuries from her. However, she snapped back to her senses when she saw Lu Xingzhi's teasing smile.

"Don't you remember that we sweated together last night?" Lu Xingzhi turned his head back after he said that. He smiled so much that even his body trembled slightly.

Jiang Yao did not say anything. She pretended that she did not understand what he was saying.

There were many wounds on Lu Xingzhi's body, big and small, that needed to be treated. After a while, Jiang Yao asked him to put his clothes back on. The pungent smell of medicine had permeated Lu Xingzhi's body.

"Oh, Yaoyao, I have to tell you something." Lu Xingzhi should have told Jiang Yao about that last night, but because it was her birthday yesterday, Lu Xingzhi did not want her to be unhappy.

"Go ahead." Jiang Yao nodded as she packed the medicine box in her hand. She could listen to Lu Xingzhi as she packed her things.

"Big Brother called me last night. He said that he knew why that organization kidnapped the tourists." Lu Xingzhi looked at Jiang Yao. "They're looking for you."

"Looking for me?" Jiang Yao's hand paused. "Why are they looking for me? Why are they taking so many people just to look for me?"

That was what Jiang Yao could not understand. Was there a need to take more than a thousand people just to look for her?

"They are looking for the Divine Doctor's student," Lu Xingzhi said.

Jiang Yao immediately understood the situation. "Okay, I understand. They want me to treat their illnesses. But they thought I wouldn't help, so they kidnapped so many people to blackmail me."

Not to mention a thousand people, the lives of over 300 were enough to raise the bar of morality and force the Divine Doctor's student to appear. Even the lives of over 300 people were enough to persuade Jiang Yao to make a concession.

Furthermore, the country could not simply stand by and watch over 300 people perish. As a result, the government would undoubtedly assist in locating the Divine Doctor's student.

Jiang Yao was a doctor, but she despised the feeling of being compelled.

Initially, Master Sen and the others forced her to remove the Divine Doctor from that world. She expected a period of peace, but she did not expect that the Divine Doctor's student would be remembered again after the Divine Doctor had supposedly died.

"I have to go, right?" Jiang Yao's expression was not very good.

"I don't want you to go, and I won't let you go." Lu Xingzhi gently patted Jiang Yao's head. "The news hasn't spread yet, and we still have time to arrange it. Let me think about it."

It was both a dragon's and a tiger's den. Lu Xingzhi would not allow it, nor would he let Jiang Yao leave.

Leaving aside Jiang Yao's hatred for Qian Yunen, who knew if Qian Yunen would seize the opportunity to harm Jiang Yao?

Most importantly, he would not allow Jiang Yao to endanger herself. He did not want Jiang Yao to be forced to do something she did not want to do.

He wanted his fellow citizens safe, but he also wanted Jiang Yao safe.
