Versatile Sword Cultivator
Chapter 339 – Injured treatment

Lin Jichen returned home to find Gu Qiuxue pacing anxiously in the living room, waiting for him.

Seeing him back, she let out a sigh of relief.

But when she noticed his bandaged arm, Gu Qiuxue screamed and rushed over.

"Little Chen, what happened? What happened to your hand?"

Her face was filled with worry, her concern evident, tears almost spilling over.

The doctor who bandaged Lin Jichen's arm was a novice, wrapping it layer upon layer, making it look like it was in a cast.

Lin Jichen quickly explained, "Sis, I'm fine. I just ran into some drunk guys on the way home with Ren Lan, got into a bit of a scuffle, and cut my hand a little."

"How could you be so careless? What did the doctor say?"

"It's just a cut. The doctor said it's nothing serious. Just need to change the bandages and medicine regularly, avoid water for a few days, and stay away from spicy food."

Gu Qiuxue breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Is Xiao Lan okay?"

"She's fine, no worries."

"You, always so impulsive. Why get into fights? Next time, just run away, don't try to be a hero."

Gu Qiuxue nagged, looking at Lin Jichen's hand with a pained expression.

"I got it, Sis. Next time, I'll run if I can."

"Good. You must be tired. The game updated today, so you can't play. Go wash up and sleep. I've prepared your clothes, they're in the bathroom."

"Alright."

Lin Jichen headed towards the bathroom.

"Wait, Little Chen, your hand can't get wet. How are you going to shower?" Gu Qiuxue suddenly remembered.

Lin Jichen paused. Right, his hand was wrapped up like a dumpling, how was he supposed to wash?

He thought about skipping the shower, but after the fight, he was dirty, covered in blood, and had sweated a lot. How could he sleep without a shower?

Feeling awkward, Lin Jichen turned to Gu Qiuxue and said, "Sis, maybe... you could help me?"

Gu Qiuxue's face turned bright red, even her neck flushed.

Last time, Lin Jichen had joked about her helping him shower, and she had refused without a second thought.

This time, it seemed the joke had come true, and she couldn't refuse.

"Then... I'll just help you wash your hair," Gu Qiuxue stammered.

Lin Jichen almost asked which head, but wisely stopped himself, fearing a beating.

"Thanks, Sis," he said, heading to the bathroom.

Gu Qiuxue took a few deep breaths, trying to calm herself, before shyly following him.

In the bathroom.

"Sis, I can't take off my clothes, you'll have to help me," Lin Jichen said, lifting his bandaged hand with a wry smile.

"Ok..." Gu Qiuxue responded, then helped him remove his shirt, her hands trembling.

Finally, his shirt was off, revealing his toned physique.

Gu Qiuxue's blush deepened, and she lowered her head, not daring to look.

Lin Jichen handed her the showerhead and squatted down. "Sis, you can start now."

Gu Qiuxue took a deep breath, telling herself it was just a shower, nothing to be embarrassed about.

She turned on the shower, checking the water temperature with her hand. Once it was right, she began wetting Lin Jichen's hair.

She applied shampoo and started to gently massage his scalp.

Feeling her fingers through his hair, Lin Jichen couldn't help but sigh, "This feels so good, Sis. You're great at washing hair."

Gu Qiuxue laughed, "If you like it, I'll wash it for you more often."

"Yes, from now on, my hair is all yours."

Gu Qiuxue smiled and continued washing his hair carefully.

After rinsing, she dried his hair with a towel.

Lin Jichen didn't move the whole time, enjoying the top-notch service.

Once his hair was done, Gu Qiuxue couldn't sit still.

"You can handle the rest yourself. Call me if you need anything."

She stole a glance at his bare chest, her face flushing again, and quickly left.

Lin Jichen smiled wryly, struggling to remove his pants with one hand, then awkwardly washing his body.

"Why couldn't both hands be injured? Sigh~"

He lamented, thinking if both hands were hurt, Gu Qiuxue would have no choice but to help him shower completely.

Lost in thought, he accidentally let his bandaged hand get wet.

"Damn!" Lin Jichen quickly raised his hand.

Outside, Gu Qiuxue called out, "Little Chen, what happened?"

"Oh, nothing. My hand just got wet."

After a moment of silence, Gu Qiuxue seemed to muster her courage and said, "Little Chen, maybe... I should help you wash..."

Lin Jichen's eyes widened, his heart racing.

"Really...?"

He couldn't believe his luck.

"But... can you... put on some shorts..." Gu Qiuxue's voice was barely audible, but Lin Jichen heard it clearly.

"No problem, Sis. Just wait a moment."

He quickly found his shorts and struggled to put them on.

"Okay, Sis," he called out.

When Gu Qiuxue didn't come in immediately, he thought she might have changed her mind.

But then the door opened, and she entered, holding a plastic bag.

Their eyes met, both blushing.

Gu Qiuxue, suppressing her shyness, approached.

"I'll cover your hand to keep it dry."

"Okay."

Lin Jichen obediently let her cover his hand with the plastic bag.

Once done, she took the showerhead and began rinsing him.

Lin Jichen noticed her hands trembling more than before.

"Keep... keep your hand up, don't let it get wet."

Gu Qiuxue's voice was shaky, revealing her nervousness.

Lin Jichen complied, raising his hand.

Next was the body wash.

At this point, Lin Jichen couldn't hide his reaction.

Gu Qiuxue noticed too, almost dropping the showerhead.

"Turn around..."

She was mortified, wanting to disappear.

Lin Jichen, equally embarrassed, quickly turned his back.

Finally, in an awkward atmosphere, Gu Qiuxue finished washing him.

Leaving the final touches to Lin Jichen, she fled the bathroom.

Lin Jichen endured the discomfort, finishing his shower. When he came out, Gu Qiuxue had already retreated to her room, likely not coming out again that night.

Lying in bed, Lin Jichen replayed the scenes in his mind, falling asleep with endless fantasies and hopes...
