Chapter 1060: Chapter 1059: Who is the Mastermind (1)
“I….,” Gu Huanhuan had thought her finger was very painful. But now, as she lifted her hand and saw the fingers bandaged like little carrots, she was momentarily stunned before it dawned on her, right, she was injured. Her nails were already cracked.
It’s said that each finger is connected to the heart, so even though they were bound, the stabbing pain still made her heart involuntarily clench with ache.
“Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?” Wen Chi, being a doctor himself, knew that waking up the next day would be very painful.
“No, it doesn’t hurt,” Gu Huanhuan didn’t want Wen Chi to worry. She looked at his weary face and truly felt distressed.
What she had gone through also caused her family to worry and be scared.
However, Gu Huanhuan tried to smile at Wen Chi, pulling at the corners of her lips. The action of speaking made the pain in her lips even more intense.
Seeing her grimace in pain, Wen Chi really didn’t know what to do with her.
She was truly strong. Clearly, she had been hurt badly, clearly, she was in pain, but still, she smiled at others, comforting them.
She appeared fragile, but in fact, she was very strong. Aside from holding her, he really didn’t know what else to do.
Feeling embarrassed as Wen Chi kept staring at her, Gu Huanhuan self-consciously touched her hair and cautiously asked, “You keep looking at me like this. Do I look very ugly now, right?”
Gu Huanhuan didn’t need a mirror to know how bedraggled and unseemly she must look.
One could just imagine, hair in disarray, ten fingers bandaged, corners of her lips swollen, and traces of blood on her lips. Such an image was truly not fit for public viewing.
The more she thought about it, the more nervous she became. She still remembered being slapped, with her entire face swollen, probably looking like a pig’s head now.

As Wen Chi remained silent, she grew even more anxious and asked with a lack of confidence, “Am I so ugly that I’ve scared you? Nevermind, just hand me a mirror so I can see for myself.”
“No, you’re still as pretty as before. In my heart, you’ve always been the first and best, whether in the past, now, or in the future.” The man was both amused and moved by her actions. Loving beauty was a woman’s nature; he understood that, but she should not be too concerned about her appearance while recovering from an illness.
Seeing her frustrated expression, his heart gave a slight tremor. He sat down at the bedside and carefully took her hand. “Don’t mind it, you look very nice now. Once the swelling goes down, you’ll be fine.”
“Really? That’s great.” Since her hubby was a doctor, she trusted his words without doubt.
“Oh no, I’ve dirtied your clothes.” Gu Huanhuan noticed dirty marks on the front of Wen Chi’s clothes. He was a person with a mania for cleanliness; how had he overlooked this?
His voice was full of apology. “Really, why didn’t you ask someone to help you get a change of clothes?”
Wen Chi touched her head, smiling and shaking his head. How could he worry about such things?
Just then, there was a commotion at the door. Several people came in one after another. The person on the bed propped herself up with a smile and said, “Brother, cousin-in-law.”
Her eyes fell on the people entering, and she quickly spoke obediently.
Seeing her trying to sit up in her eagerness, Wen Chi hurriedly pressed her down.
Shu Pan approached quickly. “What are you sitting up for? Sit back down right away.”
Her voice couldn’t bear to scold her in the slightest.
Seeing that Gu Huanhuan was awake, Shu Pan felt a surge of joy in her heart.
