After Transmigrating, I Saved the Saintly Male Lead
o0o
A smile spread across Gu Hanzhou's lips.
"You're joking."
"How could I blame you? It's just a meal."
"You are so pure, kind, gentle, and generous, it's our good fortune to have lunch with you."
Hearing Gu Hanzhou's praise, Xia Bingzhen's expression froze.
Damn it, he wasn't playing by the rules.
Xia Bingzhen quickly adjusted the expression on her face, her smile bright, "I knew Senior Gu definitely wasn't a narrow-minded person. How could he possibly restrict Senior Ji's right to make friends?"
Gu Hanzhou glanced at her with an ambiguous look, and chuckled softly, "Making friends is Che-ge's freedom, and of course I won't obstruct it."
"However, I hope Che-ge can make some friends who are beneficial to him."
Gu Hanzhou's dark eyes stared at the girl, his gaze carrying a cold chill, "Currently, the academic pressure is very high. If he encounters friends who will hold him back, as his good brother, I will of course stop him from making those kinds of friends."
Xia Bingzhen quickly understood the meaning behind Gu Hanzhou's words.
Wasn't he just saying that she would bring a bad influence to Senior Ji?!
Xia Bingzhen laughed angrily, subtly hinting, "Some people stick around Senior Ji all day long, it doesn't seem very good. What if Senior feels annoyed in his heart but is embarrassed to say it on the surface?"
Gu Hanzhou lowered his eyes and asked softly, "Ge, do you think I'm annoying?"
"Have I troubled you too much these days? I'm sorry."
"Ah?"
Ji Anche raised his eyes blankly, looking completely out of the loop.
Just now, he was thinking about how to make the male lead quickly realize his mother's true colors without hurting the male lead's young heart.
He hadn't paid attention to what the two of them were talking about at all, nor had he heard Gu Hanzhou's question clearly.
Ji Anche asked confusedly, "Xiaozhou, what did you just say?"
"Let me help Senior Gu repeat it." Xia Bingzhen secretly changed the order of the words, "Senior Gu meant, if someone always sticks to Senior Ji, will Senior Ji feel annoyed?"
Ji Anche thought for a moment and replied seriously, "Of course I would. I prefer to be alone and don't like being disturbed by others."
"Besides, doesn't that person have their own things to do? Why do they have to stick to me?"
Hearing Ji Anche's answer, the smile on Xia Bingzhen's lips became even more brilliant and flamboyant.
"Senior Gu, look, Senior Ji also agrees with my point of view. Always sticking to others will definitely be annoying."
Xia Bingzhen suggested. "If Senior Gu has a lot of free time, he can consider developing some hobbies to make his life more fulfilling, interesting, and colorful."
Gu Hanzhou lowered his eyebrows and remained silent.
A strong smell of gunpowder inexplicably drifted in the air.
The atmosphere was a bit tense.
Ji Anche looked confused, what were these two talking about?
Why couldn't he understand at all??!
After a long while.
"Ge, what if that person is me?"
Gu Hanzhou's eyebrows and eyes were tinged with loneliness, and he asked in a very soft voice.
"If that person who always sticks to you and is annoying is me, would you also feel annoyed?"
"If that person is you, of course I wouldn't be annoyed."
Ji Anche had long been used to the male lead being by his side. The male lead staying by his side gave him a sense of inexplicable peace of mind.
"I don't like others bothering me, but I like you being with me."
Ji Anche leaned over and put his arm around the male lead's shoulder, teasing intimately, "Of course you're different from others."
Hearing such blatant and doting double standards, the loneliness in Gu Hanzhou's eyes vanished in an instant, a smile appeared at the corner of his lips, and he looked at Xia Bingzhen with deep meaning.
He held Ji Anche's the back of his hand tightly, deliberately showing their intertwined fingers to Xia Bingzhen.
"So, people are different, there are close and distant relationships."
Gu Hanzhou's eyebrows and eyes contained a light smile, "Xia Bingzhen, are you right?"
"..."
Xia Bingzhen's face looked as if she had received ten thousand critical hits, and she opened her mouth with difficulty.
"...Right."
Ji Anche: "?"
Were these two playing charades behind his back?
A dry feeling suddenly spread in his throat, and Ji Anche went to a roadside vendor to buy a bottle of water, also getting drinks for the other two.
Ji Anche twisted open the cap and impatiently took a sip of mineral water, the hoarseness and dryness in his throat finally easing a bit.
Xia Bingzhen looked at the boy drinking with his head tilted back, and her heart couldn't help but flutter.
The boy stood in the sunlight, the slightly upturned ends of his hair catching the light, and the water droplets at the corners of his lips flowed down his jawline to his Adam's apple.
Why was even the action of drinking water so handsome?!
Help!
Xia Bingzhen glanced shyly at Ji Anche, and asked for help with a troubled expression.
"Senior Ji, I'm too weak, I really can't open this bottle of water, can you help me open it?"
"Sure."
Ji Anche took the mineral water, easily twisted open the cap, and handed the mineral water back to the girl.
Xia Bingzhen happily curled up the corners of her lips, her pupils bright and moving.
"Thank you, Senior, you're so kind!"
"No Problem"
When he smiled, it seemed as if the sunlight became brighter and warmer.
Xia Bingzhen was slightly dazed and lowered her head shyly.
"Ge, I can't open this drink either." Gu Hanzhou frowned.
Ji Anche was stunned, "Gu Hanzhou, are you serious?"
Don't think he didn't know just how strong the male lead was.
Last time when he was held in the male lead's arms, he couldn't break free at all. The male lead looked thin, but in reality, he should be stronger than him.
"Ge, I feel a little dizzy today."
Gu Hanzhou pressed his right hand to his temple, his brows tightly furrowed, looking pained.
"I have no energy at all."
"Could it be heatstroke?" Ji Anche asked worriedly.
Gu Hanzhou nodded obediently, his voice carrying a hint of pitifulness, "Seems like I have a bit of heatstroke."
"Ge, can you support me?"
Gu Hanzhou coughed weakly with his fist against his lips a few times.
"Cough cough..."
Ji Anche took the water bottle in his left hand, walked to the male lead's side, and supported the male lead with his right hand as they walked forward.
Looking at the two people's intimate and close back view, Xia Bingzhen secretly gritted her teeth.
Damn it, she had been outplayed by this green tea again!
They finally arrived at the hot pot restaurant.
Ji Anche didn't like noise, so he specially chose a quiet private room.
While waiting for the hot pot broth to heat up, everyone had nothing to do.
Xia Bingzhen took the initiative to start a topic, "Senior Ji, do you know? That science fiction movie I told you about last time, 'War of Dawn', have you seen it yet?"
"I've been quite busy recently." Ji Anche shook his head, "Haven't had time to see it yet."
Xia Bingzhen said excitedly, "Senior must go and see it when you have time. Highly recommended!!! It's definitely the best science fiction movie in recent years!"
Ji Anche said in surprise, "Is it that good?"
Xia Bingzhen: "'War of Dawn' is truly amazing. First of all, the setting is very clever, and the logical reasoning is a perfect closed loop. Secondly, the plot conflicts are also arranged very tightly and wonderfully, with no dull moments throughout. The emotional lines between the male and female leads are also very touching."
Ji Anche's interest was completely piqued.
He vaguely revealed a favorable impression, "It seems there aren't many girls who like to watch hard science fiction movies."
Xia Bingzhen smiled shyly, "I've been very interested in science fiction since I was a child."
The two chatted enthusiastically, while Gu Hanzhou sat alone in the corner.
The tomato soup was bubbling and steaming.
Seeing that the soup pot was boiling, Xia Bingzhen stood up and picked up a plate, originally intending to put large mushrooms into the pot.
She accidentally slipped and didn't hold the plate steady.
In the blink of an eye, all the mushrooms on the plate were about to fall into the hot pot!
The hot pot was now completely boiling. Scalding steam continuously rose.
If the hot soup splashed onto skin, it could easily cause burns!
Xia Bingzhen widened her eyes in horror and screamed.
"Get out of the way!!!"
But her words were a step too late.
The scalding hot soup had already splashed onto the back of Gu Hanzhou's hand.
Ji Anche's pupils shrank, just in time to see the scene of the back of Gu Hanzhou's hand being burned.
The fair back of his hand quickly turned red and swollen.
Ji Anche hurriedly grabbed the iced mineral water next to him and rushed to pour it on the burned hand.
Immediately rinsing a burn with cold water could alleviate the pain.
The redness and swelling on the back of his hand quickly subsided a bit.
Ji Anche's eyes were filled with worry, and he asked with concern, "Xiaozhou, how do you feel? Does it hurt?"
Gu Hanzhou retracted the back of his hand and said obediently, "Ge, it doesn't hurt. You don't need to worry about me."
The back of his hand was so red and swollen over such a large area, it didn't look like he was okay at all no matter how you looked at it.
Ji Anche frowned and asked, "Are you really okay?"
Gu Hanzhou lowered his eyebrows and forced a weak smile, "I'm fine."
"Ge, you don't need to mind it."
Gu Hanzhou's pale face slightly curved into a smile, looking very pitiful, "I've long been used to this kind of pain."
Hearing Gu Hanzhou say this, Ji Anche's heart felt sour, and he became even more worried and felt even more sorry for Gu Hanzhou.
At this moment, Xia Bingzhen interjected apologetically, "Senior Gu, I'm really sorry!!! I accidentally slipped just now and didn't hold the plate steady. Senior Gu, are you okay? Senior Gu, do you need to go to the hospital for a check-up?"
While saying this, a look of suspicion appeared in Xia Bingzhen's eyes.
If Gu Hanzhou had moved faster just now, he could have easily dodged it.
Could this Senior Gu have done it on purpose?
Gu Hanzhou pursed his lips tightly and shook his head, "No need to go to the hospital. My skin is thick, being scalded by hot water isn't a big deal."
Gu Hanzhou raised his pale eyebrows and clarified, "This is all my own fault for being too careless."
"It has nothing to do with Junior Sister Xia."
Gu Hanzhou turned his head and forced a smile at Ji Anche, "Ge, you must not blame Junior Sister Xia. Junior Sister Xia should have just made a momentary mistake just now, so she accidentally injured me. She definitely didn't mean to. So you must not blame her."
At this moment, Xia Bingzhen seemed to smell the familiar faint fragrance of green tea.
She quickly entered a fighting state and roared hoarsely, "No!!!!!"
The entire private room shook in an instant.
"It's not Senior Gu's fault, it's all my fault!!!!!! It's my fault for not holding the plate steady!"
Xia Bingzhen's eyes were slightly red, and she bit her lower lip apologetically, looking extremely uncomfortable.
Gu Hanzhou shook his head, his lips pale, "It's not your fault. I didn't manage to dodge in time."
"Ge, you must not blame Junior Sister Xia."
Xia Bingzhen said weakly and pitifully, "No no no, blame me. It's all my fault."
Gu Hanzhou: "No, it's my fault."
Xia Bingzhen hurriedly said, "No, it's not Senior Gu's fault. It's all my fault. Wuwuwuwuwu."
Gu Hanzhou coughed weakly, "Cough cough... It's not your fault."
Xia Bingzhen said weakly and pitifully, "Senior Gu, don't say that, I'll feel even more guilty. It's really all my fault."
Ji Anche: "?"
Good heavens, were these two doing a tongue twister here???
Besides, he hadn't blamed anyone.
What exactly was going on with these two?!
Ji Anche's head hurt from the noise of these two. It felt like bees were buzzing in his ears.
He really couldn't understand what the two of them were hung up about.
Ji Anche loudly interrupted, "Stop being considerate of each other!"
However, no one paid him any attention.
Awkward.
A flash of inspiration struck his mind, and Ji Anche suddenly thought of a very brilliant solution.
Ji Anche stood up from his seat and hurriedly walked outside, "Wait for me, I'll be right back."
Gu Hanzhou stood up, intending to follow.
"Xiaozhou, you don't need to accompany me, I'll be right back."
Hearing this, Gu Hanzhou had no choice but to sit back in his original seat, "Okay, I'll wait for you."
After Ji Anche left, the private room became quiet.
The weak and pitiful look on Xia Bingzhen's face disappeared without a trace.
The smile on Gu Hanzhou's face faded, and his eyes were as dark as ink.
When he looked at the others without any expression, the cold and perverse look in his eyes naturally revealed itself. Xia Bingzhen suddenly felt that the current Gu Hanzhou seemed different from just now.
It was as if he had cast off the warm and harmless disguise, revealing his true nature.
Gu Hanzhou's voice was cold, "Stay away from my brother"
"Why?"
Xia Bingzhen sneered, crossing her arms and raising her chin, asking, "Based on your tenth-level green tea skills?"
Gu Hanzhou's expression was indifferent, his knuckles resting lazily on the table.
His pupils were dark, his ink-like eyes seeming to see through everything.
"You like Ji Anche?"
Xia Bingzhen was a girl after all, and suddenly having her deeply hidden crush exposed, her expression became embarrassed, and her earlobes turned a light pink.
"Yes, I do like Senior!"
"What about it?!"
Gu Hanzhou stated the facts mercilessly, "My ge doesn't like you."
"Whether or not Senior likes me is none of your business?!" Xia Bingzhen said angrily and shamefully.
She had actually known this for a long time, but she had always been reluctant to give up.
Don't ask, the answer was that Senior was too handsome.
He had captivated her heart.
Not giving up was her last stubbornness as a face-obsessed person.
Seeing this stumbling block in front of her, who had repeatedly hindered her close interactions with Senior, Xia Bingzhen felt extremely angry.
"I really can't understand, why do you have to stop me from being with Senior???"
Xia Bingzhen questioned without choosing her words, "Could it be that you also like Senior?!"
Gu Hanzhou chuckled softly.
"Yes."
"I like him."
A strange infatuation appeared in Gu Hanzhou's eyes, "He is mine."
"Don't covet my person."
Gu Hanzhou chuckled softly, "Otherwise, you bear the consequences."
The expression on Xia Bingzhen's face changed unpredictably, clearly extremely surprised.
Having said this, Gu Hanzhou was too lazy to bother with irrelevant people anymore.
He took out his phone and lowered his head to send a message to Ji Anche.
Xiaogu: [Ge, when are you coming back?]
Xiaogu: [The cuttlefish balls you like are cooked, waiting for your arrival]
Xiaogu: [(Well-behaved waiting.jpg)]
Soon, Ji Anche's message popped up.
Ji Anche: [I'm going back right away! I specially prepared a surprise for you guys!]
Gu Hanzhou looked at the words 'you guys,' his eyes obscure.
"Hey, Senior Gu."
"Uh..."
"Hmm..."
Xia Bingzhen's expression was tangled, and she hesitated, "Actually, I..."
Impatience flashed across Gu Hanzhou's eyes, and he threw his phone onto the table, "Shut up if you don't want to talk."
"I'll talk, I'll talk!!" Xia Bingzhen took a deep breath and said seriously, "Senior Gu, actually I'm not here to break you up."
Gu Hanzhou: "?"
Xia Bingzhen flicked her long black hair behind her ear, a bright smile on her cheek,
"I'm not here to break you up, I'm here to join you!"
Gu Hanzhou: "???"
At this moment, the private room door happened to be pushed open.
Ji Anche walked in with a black plastic bag in his hand.
The words Gu Hanzhou was about to say were immediately choked back in his throat.
He turned around, his eyebrows and eyes curving into a smile, "Ge, you're back."
Xia Bingzhen, unwilling to be outdone, said loudly, "Senior, you're finally back!"
Xia Bingzhen quickly walked towards the door, lowered her head, and looked at the black plastic bag in Ji Anche's hand, "Senior, what's in your hand? Let me help you carry it."
Ji Anche opened the black plastic bag and smiled mysteriously, "I brought you guys a gift."
"Wow, how happy!"
Xia Bingzhen's cheeks flushed slightly, and she smiled, "Thank you for the gift, Senior, you spent too much."
A smile spread across Gu Hanzhou's lips, and he said softly, "Thank you, Ge."
Soon, Xia Bingzhen couldn't smile anymore.
After seeing what the gift was, the smile on Gu Hanzhou's lips also slightly froze.
What Ji Anche gave them was actually "Five-Year College Entrance Exam, Three-Year Simulation."
To make his ears quieter, Ji Anche placed the 'Five-Year College Entrance Exam, Three-Year Simulation' in front of the two of them, and even put carbon pens for writing in front of each of them.
"Be good and do your exercises, don't be considerate of each other anymore, okay? Let yourselves off the hook, let each other off the hook, and let my ears off the hook too."
Ji Anche clenched his fist and said encouragingly, "Studying is the most important!!!"
Xia Bingzhen: "..."
Gu Hanzhou: "..."
Seeing the two people's instantly silent expressions and the finally quiet private room, Ji Anche took a small sip of goji berry tea, finally relieved.
Ji Anche picked up his phone, thinking that he could finally have some peace for a while.
It seemed that he would have to bring a few extra math papers when meeting with Student Xia Bingzhen in the future.
Caring for ear health starts with bringing math papers!
After eating hot pot.
Xia Bingzhen had some urgent business at home and left first.
Returning to school.
To avoid the gatekeeper, Ji Anche and Gu Hanzhou specially climbed over the wall and took a relatively secluded path.
This path was very remote, with lush bushes and dazzlingly blooming snow-white gardenias planted around it.
The rich fragrance of gardenias lingered around their noses.
Walking on the empty campus.
Ji Anche asked worriedly, "Xiaozhou, how does the back of your hand feel? Does it still hurt? I'll take you to the school hospital to take a look later."
In his eyes, the male lead was like a glass doll, and even the slightest bump had to be treated with caution.
Gu Hanzhou shook his head and said softly, "It's okay."
o0o
In the bushes.
Liu Lifei curled up in the dense bushes, his right leg fitted with a cold mechanical prosthetic. He raised his bloodshot eyes and stared fiercely at Gu Hanzhou.
He didn't expect to run into Gu Hanzhou as soon as he returned to school.
If it weren't for Gu Hanzhou, the school wouldn't have known about his theft. He wouldn't have been expelled by the school, let alone faced juvenile detention, leaving an indelible mark of crime on his personal file.
He had sneaked out this time to take revenge on Gu Hanzhou! Gu Hanzhou had ruined his life, and he would also ruin what Gu Hanzhou cared about the most!
Liu Lifei's bloodshot eyes looked towards Ji Anche, and he clenched the steel pipe in his hand.
Ji Anche's arms broke out in goosebumps, and he felt a sinister chill down his back.
The bushes suddenly rustled.
Ji Anche glanced over casually and suddenly saw Liu Lifei holding a steel pipe and attacking his head.
That person moved too fast, and by the time he realized the danger and wanted to dodge, it was completely too late.
Seeing that steel pipe was about to fall on his head.
This strike would probably splatter blood on the spot!
Ji Anche instinctively closed his eyes tightly.
"Thud!!!!!"
A dull sound of a steel pipe hitting flesh came from beside his ear.
One second... two seconds... but no pain came at all.
If the sound hadn't been so clear and heavy, Ji Anche would have suspected he had misheard.
He tentatively opened his eyes and saw Gu Hanzhou standing in front of him, using his arm to block the steel pipe.
The outermost part of the steel pipe had sharp and dense iron thorns.
The iron thorns pierced into his skin, and fresh blood flowed down his wrist. The bloodstains on the clean white shirt looked particularly glaring.
Bright red blood reflected in Ji Anche's eyes, his pupils shrank sharply, and his thoughts seemed to be suddenly severed.
Suddenly, he couldn't see anything in front of him, only a vast expanse of white.
Gu Hanzhou protected Ji Anche behind him and backhanded the steel pipe.
He pulled out the steel pipe and then smashed it hard onto Liu Lifei's face.
Liu Lifei fell directly to the ground, bright red blood oozing from the corner of his mouth.
Gu Hanzhou showed no mercy in his attacks, each time aiming for the most painful parts of the human body.
Liu Lifei on the ground was almost beaten to a pulp, curling up in pain, only able to let out miserable screams.
Gu Hanzhou walked up to Liu Lifei, who was curled up on the ground, and looked down at him condescendingly.
His eyes were bloodshot, and the violence in his heart was almost bursting out uncontrollably. Just a second ago, Ji Anche would have been injured in front of him.
Liu Lifei shrank back, supporting himself on the concrete with his elbows to escape backwards. Even though the flesh on his elbows was worn away, he still stubbornly and fearfully retreated backwards, as if he had already foreseen that something extremely terrifying would happen in the next second.
Finally, he fled to a dead end at the wall, with nowhere left to escape.
At this moment, Liu Lifei somewhat understood why those people he had beaten before had such desperate expressions on their faces.
Watching death approach him step by step, he couldn't escape.
Liu Lifei's teeth chattered in fear, and physiological tears flowed uncontrollably. The anger and impulse brought by the rush of blood earlier had completely disappeared, and now only intense regret and panic remained.
A fishy and foul smell of urine came from the air.
A puddle gradually wet Liu Lifei's crotch.
Liu Lifei trembled, crying out stutteringly, "Please, I was wrong, I was wrong... I'm sorry..."
"Please don't come over, I really know I was wrong..."
"Don't kill me... spare me..."
Gu Hanzhou's eyes were sinister, and his whole body exuded a violent aura.
Uncontrollable manic-depressive and bloody thoughts surged in his heart.
He weighed the steel pipe in his hand, raised it, and was about to smash it down hard.
His wrist was suddenly grabbed.
Gu Hanzhou turned his head irritably and saw Ji Anche frowning, looking at him with a somewhat complicated expression.
"Xiaozhou..."
Reason suddenly returned, and Gu Hanzhou casually threw the steel pipe in his hand onto the concrete ground.
The steel pipe hit the ground, making a crisp "clang" sound.
Realizing the violent and bloody aura he had unintentionally revealed just now was inconsistent with the well-behaved and docile demeanor he always displayed in front of Ji Anche.
Gu Hanzhou's throat tickled, and his face gradually turned pale.
He cautiously glanced at Ji Anche.
Initially, he had pretended to be weak and harmless in front of Ji Anche to see the interesting look of being deceived on Ji Anche's face after knowing the truth.
But now, he was actually a little afraid of Ji Anche knowing the truth.
If Ji Anche saw the real him, would he still be so good to him?
The answer must be no.
What Ji Anche liked was a well-behaved and sensible younger brother, not a gloomy and indifferent madman.
His ge was a flower born towards the sun, liking everything sunny and warm, while he was the exact opposite.
Hypocritical, vile, cruel, violent.
No one would like the real him.
Cold sweat seeped from Gu Hanzhou's palms, his fingertips tightly clenched together, his voice carrying a trace of panic, "Ge, what I did just now was a conditioned reflex, not intentional. I don't know what happened."
Gu Hanzhou's face was deathly pale as if he had been frightened, trying his best to look gentle and harmless.
He threw himself forward and hugged Ji Anche tightly, murmuring, "Ge, I didn't know it would be like this."
"I was so scared."
"I'm sorry... I was really so scared..."
Ji Anche hugged the boy's body in return, discovering that Gu Hanzhou's body was actually trembling slightly.
Having been with the male lead for so long, Ji Anche really understood the male lead's temperament and personality too well.
The male lead had a gentle personality, even more docile and kind than the white lotus female lead in TV dramas.
He didn't dare to fight back even when bullied.
Back then, when Liu Lifei poured chalk dust into his water cup and completely messed up his desk, he didn't even see him get angry.
It was as if no matter how others bullied him, he wouldn't get angry.
He didn't expect that this time, to protect him, the male lead would actually take the initiative to attack others with a steel pipe.
Ji Anche couldn't describe what he was feeling right now, only that his heart felt both sour and swollen, as if soaked in sour lemonade, with sweet warmth seeping out through the cracks.
"Xiaozhou, are you injured?"
"Ge should be the one saying sorry, Ge didn't protect you well."
Ji Anche gently patted the boy's back again and again, comforting him softly and patiently, "Don't be afraid, it's already over."
After a long while, Gu Hanzhou's trembling and panicked body finally calmed down.
Ji Anche gently let go of Gu Hanzhou and walked towards Liu Lifei, who had fallen on the ground.
Liu Lifei's face was bruised and swollen, blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and his expression was terrified as he curled up his body like a puddle of mud, shivering, looking very miserable.
Ji Anche felt his shirt cuff being gently tugged.
He turned his head and saw Gu Hanzhou's pale and fragile face, "Ge, I was so scared. I'm sorry, I couldn't control my behavior."
Ji Anche's heart couldn't help but ache.
The male lead had received such a big shock.
When people are stimulated, they always do some extraordinary things.
He could understand.
Ji Anche called the school security and asked them to deal with Liu Lifei.
Then, Ji Anche supported Gu Hanzhou and walked towards the infirmary. The top priority was to treat the wound first.
After arriving at the infirmary.
The doctor in the white coat raised his head and asked, "What's wrong?"
"He's injured, doctor, please take a look quickly." Ji Anche looked anxious, holding Gu Hanzhou's injured arm and showing it to the doctor.
Seeing that bloody wound, even the well-informed doctor was taken aback, "Whoa, such a big cut. But this wound looks scary, it's actually not a big deal, it will heal quickly with some ointment."
The doctor pointed and said, "You students don't work hard at studying all day, you just have to fight and get yourselves into this state to be happy, right?"
Ji Anche lowered his head and silently endured the scolding.
"He didn't fight."
Gu Hanzhou took the initiative to take responsibility, "I was the one who hit him."
Doctor: "Hey, you kid..."
The nurse's call came from outside, "Old Wang, there's a patient with a high fever and exhaustion, come take a look quickly."
"Okay, coming right away!"
The doctor stuffed bottles and jars of medicine into Ji Anche's hands and hurriedly instructed, "You apply the medicine to him, and then wrap it with a bandage. It's very simple. I'm too busy to leave right now."
"Ah?" Ji Anche blankly took the medicine jar, "Okay then."
Sitting on the wooden chair in the infirmary.
Ji Anche had learned some basic nursing knowledge before, and applying ordinary medicine was something he could do.
He opened the brownish-red bottle and dipped a cotton swab into it.
The cotton swab became wet and soaked with the brown liquid.
Ji Anche looked focused and serious, holding the medicine-covered cotton swab and dabbing the wound little by little.
The liquid medicine seeped into the flesh through the cracks in the skin, and a slight bee-sting-like pain came from the wound. Gu Hanzhou had a high pain tolerance, so this kind of pain was nothing to him.
Ji Anche raised his eyes and asked, "Does it hurt?"
Gu Hanzhou belatedly hissed, furrowed his brows, and nodded heavily, "It hurts a lot. It hurts especially."
Gu Hanzhou looked at Ji Anche with anticipation in his eyes.
Would ge care about him?
Ji Anche said ruthlessly, "Endure it."
A look of astonishment appeared on Gu Hanzhou's face, looking somewhat silly.
Like a silly roe deer staring with wide eyes, looking at him blankly.
Ji Anche couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips, a suppressed chuckle escaping his throat.
Then the laughter grew louder and louder, "Hahaha..."
Gu Hanzhou's face also became redder and redder.
Light red gradually spread from his neck to the roots of his ears, a faint blush appearing on Gu Hanzhou's ears, and his pale cheeks finally gained some rosy color.
If he teased him any further, he would probably explode.
Ji Anche took out a lemon candy from his pocket, his fingertips slowly and deliberately parting Gu Hanzhou's lips, and stuffed the candy into Gu Hanzhou's mouth.
"It won't hurt anymore if you eat a candy."
Ji Anche ruffled Gu Hanzhou's hair messily, a smile spreading across his eyebrows and eyes.
"Good boy."
The sweet and sour lemon flavor melted in his mouth, and Gu Hanzhou blankly bit the candy, his thoughts pausing for a moment.
His gaze involuntarily fell on the boy's clear and handsome side profile. The boy's nose bridge was high and straight, and his jawline was clean and sharp.
Sunlight sprinkled on Ji Anche's cheeks, and Ji Anche was surrounded by the fresh and bright spirit of youth.
Even the curve of his lips, which curled up slightly, happened to settle in his heart.
At such a close distance, Gu Hanzhou could smell the comfortable scent of Ji Anche's school uniform.
The doctor came back after finishing his work.
"Let me see how the bandage is."
Seeing the bandage already wrapped around Gu Hanzhou's arm, the doctor's eyes lit up, "Oh, young man, you've got some skills, the bandage looks quite good, but it will get inflamed soon."
Ji Anche was stunned, "Why will it get inflamed?"
The doctor smiled, "It's wrapped too tightly and not breathable, you can't bandage it like this."
Ji Anche touched his nose and lowered his head awkwardly. He was afraid that the medicine stains would leak out, so he deliberately wrapped it tighter.
The doctor unwrapped the bandage on Gu Hanzhou's arm and quickly re-bandaged it.
When he unwrapped the bandage, seeing the red marks squeezed out on Gu Hanzhou's arm, the doctor said in surprise.
"Don't you feel it's too tight?"
Gu Hanzhou: "..."
His attention was all focused on Ji Anche, and he hadn't paid much attention to the bandaging technique.
"My brother's bandaging skills are actually very good."
"It's because there's too little flesh on my arm, so it's hard to bandage." Gu Hanzhou pursed his lips and chuckled softly, "Doctor, don't blame my ge."
Ji Anche's face flushed with embarrassment from the praise.
Such terrible skills, probably only Gu Hanzhou would praise him for them.
Was the male lead his thoughtful little padded jacket in his previous life?
A girl seeing a doctor next to them kicked her boyfriend and said angrily, "Look at how well other people can talk. You only open your mouth to make me angry."
The male student pushed up his black-rimmed glasses and said seriously, "Xiaoran, you can't say that. I have a mouth to eat and drink, that's a human physiological characteristic. Only disabled people don't have mouths, how can you say I have a mouth to make you angry?"
The male student shook his head and sighed, "You're too immature."
"You're the most mature, then live alone, don't bother me again in the future!!!"
The girl was so angry that she didn't even want to see the doctor anymore, picked up her handbag and stormed out.
Seeing his girlfriend run away, the male student turned his head and glared fiercely at Ji Anche, saying sarcastically, "Brother, you're really something."
Ji Anche stood awkwardly to the side.
Sitting at home, disaster falls from the sky.
The male student was also confused by anger and shouted loudly, "My girlfriend ran away, are you happy now?!"
Ji Anche was simply baffled.
What was there for him to be happy about? It wasn't his girlfriend who ran away.
Ji Anche turned around, too lazy to pay attention to that male student.
His fingertips hovered over the bandaged wound on Gu Hanzhou's arm, and Ji Anche asked softly, "Does the wound still hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt anymore." Gu Hanzhou pursed his lips and slowly said, "Some people have low EQ and can't keep their girlfriends, yet they still blame those with high EQ. Ge, don't you think that's strange?"
Ji Anche couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips and said, "It is indeed quite strange."
The male student's face flushed red, and he slammed the door angrily and left.
"Tsk tsk." The doctor next to them stroked his beard and pondered, "The relationship between you brothers is even better than that between couples."
Ji Anche nodded, "Of course."
"Doctor, when will his wound heal?"
The doctor said, "About a week, don't touch water and don't use your right hand to hold anything too heavy to avoid tearing the wound."
When leaving.
The doctor instructed, "Remember to come back to the infirmary tomorrow to change the dressing. You can change it yourselves, but if you can't, come to the infirmary."
"Ge will help me change it. Thank you, doctor."
Gu Hanzhou grabbed Ji Anche's arm and leaned on Ji Anche clingily, "Ge, I'm injured, can you help me?"
The doctor widened his eyes in surprise.
Young man, your arm is injured, not your leg, why can't you walk???
At that moment, the doctor felt as if his titanium alloy dog eyes had been flashed by something.
Ji Anche didn't think much of it, put his arm under the male lead's elbow, and supported the male lead as they walked forward.
Gu Hanzhou wrapped his arm around the boy's slender waist, his knuckles rubbing against his side.
Ji Anche dragged a "burden" and trudged forward with difficulty.
Most of Gu Hanzhou's body weight was leaning on him, meaning Ji Anche was almost dragging Gu Hanzhou forward.
So heavy!
Gu Hanzhou was also a boy of 1.85 meters, and Ji Anche was a bit breathless from his weight.
Ji Anche couldn't bear it anymore and pushed the male lead away, "Gu Xiaozhou, can you have a clear understanding of your heavy weight? Are your legs broken?"
Gu Hanzhou blinked and nodded innocently, "Mmm."
"Legs broken..."
A suspicious blush appeared on Gu Hanzhou's ears, his voice carrying a coquettish tone.
"...Need ge to support me to walk."
