In the consulting room, the doctor carefully observed the wound that was still bleeding, and then nodded: "It was treated promptly. However, the wound is too deep, and it has been torn back and forth, so the wound surface is very large, and it still needs a few stitches."
Then he praised: "Did you bandage it yourself?"
Gu Jianian shook his head and pointed at Chi Yan who was standing beside him: "He helped me pack it. I couldn't do it myself."
"Your technique is quite good." The female doctor looked up at Chi Yan, then lowered her head and jokingly said, "Boyfriend? He's really handsome."
Gu Jianian knew that the doctor was trying to divert her attention with good intentions, but her face still flushed with embarrassment. She quickly raised her head to glance at Chi Yan and denied in a low voice, "He is not..."
"Oh, that's the other one?"
The doctor dragged out the words, his eyes wandering between Chi Yan and He Jitong for a moment, then suddenly raised his voice and asked, "Which one is the boyfriend? Help me fix her legs, don't move, I'm going to start stitching."
He Jitong didn't dare to reach out his hand after hearing what she said.
After a moment, Chi Yan reached out and held Gu Jianian's knee firmly.
The pain came in an instant. Gu Jianian clenched his teeth and said nothing. His hands grabbed uncontrollably and clenched a certain piece of cloth.
The remaining time seemed to be infinitely stretched.
Three stitches were needed in total.
Fortunately, the doctor's technique was very skillful, and Gu Jianian didn't suffer too much. After the stitches were done, the doctor bandaged the wound again. After everything was done properly, the excruciating pain finally subsided.
Gu Jianian was sweating profusely and leaned back in his chair as if he was exhausted.
Because I clenched my teeth too hard just now, when I released the strength, I only felt a swollen and painful feeling in my temples and eye sockets, accompanied by a slight tinnitus.
She could vaguely hear the little boy who had broken his head in the next clinic crying heartbreakingly, and Chi Yan told her that he was going to get some medicine.
She nodded weakly, but found that Chi Yan had been standing there without moving. After a while, he handed the prescription in his hand to He Jitong and told him, "Go get it."
Gu Jianian raised his head and looked over in confusion.
Under the bright incandescent light of the clinic, Chi Yan had a rare look of helplessness on his face. She followed his gaze and looked down, only then did she realize that the hem of his shirt was tightly grasped in her hand.
She squeezed so hard that he had to bend down a little to accommodate her.
Gu Jianian blushed immediately and let go of his hand immediately.
Chi Yan pulled at the wrinkled hem of his skirt, and glanced through the transparent glass of the cubicle at the little boy next door who was also getting stitches and howling with his mouth wide open. He then turned around and looked at Gu Jianian's forehead covered in cold sweat, and let out a soft "tsk".
"He's not much older than me, so he's pretty patient."
"how come?"
Gu Jianian didn't look at him. He thought for a while and repeated, "I will be an adult next month. I am at least ** years older than him."
"Aren't you only... six years older than me?"
The voice gradually faded away.
Chi Yan laughed angrily: "You're still not convinced? The wound is torn back and forth... If you didn't act so arrogantly, maybe you wouldn't have to suffer so much."
Gu Jianian was suddenly exposed. He took his feet off the chair guiltily and groaned in pain.
I heard him say without any emotion: "At your age, you can cry if you want to, and you don't have to endure the pain. No one will laugh at you."
