Chapter 198 Why am I tired?
Qiao Jingyu's heart was in a mess at the moment, and she couldn't calm down no matter what. She was worried that others would think she was playing too slowly. Sometimes she didn't even have time to check the cards carefully, and she played them in a hurry. In the last round, she had a good hand, but because her mind was not on the game at all, she realized that she had played the wrong hand after she played the cards.
Qiao Jingyu knew that if she continued to play cards in this absent-minded state, she would definitely lose miserably today. Therefore, when Duan Yuchen returned to his seat after answering the phone, Qiao Jingyu quickly leaned close to his ear and whispered, "Third brother, I don't want to play anymore."
Hearing this, Duan Yuchen naturally placed his big, broad hand on Qiao Jingyu's shoulder, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Qiao Jingyu shook her head slightly and replied with a sad face: "It's not that I'm unwell, it's just that I've lost a lot of money..."
Seeing Qiao Jingyu's pitiful appearance, Duan Yuchen couldn't help but smile and comforted her softly, "Don't worry too much about it. As long as you have fun, winning or losing doesn't matter at all."
However, the intimate interaction between the two of them did not escape the eyes of others. Duan Mohan, who was sitting next to them, pretended to have goose bumps all over his body and shuddered exaggeratedly, then smiled and teased: "Oh, can you two restrain yourself a little! This is a public place, don't show your affection so unscrupulously. Besides, when you go back to your room to sleep later, you have a whole night to spend time together!"
Qiao Jingyu's fair face instantly turned red like a ripe apple, as if blood was dripping out. She opened her mouth and wanted to explain, but she swallowed the words back because she really couldn't think of a suitable excuse. So she had to straighten her body and lock her eyes on the colorful cards in front of her, pretending to be focused and attentive, as if this could cover up the panic and embarrassment in her heart.
Time passed quietly without anyone noticing. As the clock was about to point to eleven o'clock, Luo Huimin finally broke the silence and said, "It's already so late, why don't we just leave it at that for today and go to bed early!"
This was like a pardon to Qiao Jingyu, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, she had been looking forward to the end of this card game, because she had already lost more than 100,000 yuan! And all this money belonged to Duan Yuchen. Although she felt very uncomfortable, she was embarrassed to take the initiative to end the game. Now that Luo Huimin had spoken, she naturally couldn't wait to be the first to put down the cards in her hand.
As a result, there is no doubt that the poker game tonight ended with Qiao Jingyu's family losing miserably, while the other three families were all happy, especially Duan Mohan who won the most. Duan Mohan smiled and said to Qiao Jingyu proudly, "Haha, thank you so much, Jingyu! Xiaochen is the one who has the least money, and there was no one around him to help him spend money before. But it doesn't matter, next time we will play a bigger game, and you must continue to take care of us, anyway, we will be a family sooner or later, after all, the good things should stay in the family!"
Facing Duan Mohan's words, Qiao Jingyu was speechless for a moment, and could only lower her head silently, biting her lips secretly. At this moment, her already wet palms were even more soaked with sweat.
If Duan Yuchen was really her boyfriend, it wouldn't matter. Just like Duan Mohan said, he had a lot of money and was not inferior to others. But the problem was that she was just pretending to be Duan Yuchen's girlfriend. Who could understand how she felt right now!
After coming out of the chess and card room, the group went back to their own residences. The villa was very big and everyone had their own small villa.
Luo Huimin sent Qiao Jingyu and Duan Yuchen back to their room. There was a light in her eyes that Qiao Jingyu couldn't understand. She seemed very excited. "Jingyu, I'll call you to eat tomorrow morning. If you're too tired tonight, you can get up later!"
Qiao Jingyu was confused. Too tired tonight? Not that tired from playing mahjong? I just felt a little distressed.
"Okay, okay, please go in and I'll help you close the door." Luo Huimin said with a smile.
Qiao Jingyu said somewhat awkwardly, "Thank you, grandma..."
Qiao Jingyu gently pushed open the door. As soon as she stepped into the room, she heard the sound of running water coming from the bathroom. Without thinking, she knew that it must be Duan Yuchen taking a bath in there. At this moment, she stood in the middle of the room, looking a little helpless, not knowing what to do. Sitting down seemed inappropriate; standing there made her feel uncomfortable.
Just when Qiao Jingyu was struggling with her inner struggle, the bathroom door suddenly opened. Duan Yuchen walked out slowly with only a white bath towel wrapped around his waist. His short black hair was dripping with water drops, which slid down his well-defined cheeks and finally disappeared at the edge of the bath towel. His healthy wheat-colored skin exuded a charming luster, and his broad shoulders, strong chest, and sexy abdominal muscles that were faintly visible all made people unable to look away. Especially the seductive mermaid line, which seemed to have a fatal attraction.
Qiao Jingyu stared at Duan Yuchen blankly, as if she was under a spell. Her feet seemed to be rooted, unable to move at all. However, Duan Yuchen did not seem to notice Qiao Jingyu's abnormality. He just said in his deep and magnetic voice: "Jingyu, come and help me." This voice sounded particularly sexy and seductive at this time, like an electric current that struck Qiao Jingyu's heartstrings.
"Help...help with what?" Qiao Jingyu finally came back to her senses and asked stutteringly.
"When I was taking a shower just now, my wound accidentally touched water. It hurts a little. Can you help me apply some medicine?" Duan Yuchen gestured to the side. Qiao Jingyu then noticed that on the table next to him, there was an opened medical box with various medicines and tools neatly arranged inside. Duan Yuchen held a pair of tweezers and a ball of cotton wool in his hands, obviously preparing to treat his own wound.
Qiao Jingyu put away her charming thoughts and walked over quickly. Although she had guessed that Duan Yuchen must be seriously injured, when she saw the shocking wound on Duan Yuchen's shoulder, Qiao Jingyu's eyes instantly turned red, and she felt like there were thousands of bugs gnawing at her heart.
The entire right side of his shoulder was almost bruised and purple, and the wound where it was hit by the cement block was very deep. It has been two days and it is still so serious. It is not difficult to imagine how bloody it must have been at that time.
At that time, I lied to her that it didn't hurt, it was just a superficial wound.
Qiao Jingyu bit her lips tightly to suppress her surging emotions. She took the tweezers and cotton swab from Duan Yuchen's hand and gently disinfected it with iodine, blowing gently on Duan Yuchen's wound while disinfecting.
Duan Yuchen had a faint smile on his face and really enjoyed Qiao Jingyu's lovely and thoughtful service.
