Chapter 979  : Love Comes Softly (7)

Wu Hao nodded his head. “I probably just injured myself by accident when I was sleeping at home today.”

“Hang on for a moment. I’ll call for the doctor.” After the nurse spoke, she turned and dashed out of the room. Wu Hao only then realized how hideous the wounds on his shoulder looked, and he wanted to follow the nurse to spare Xu Wennuan from seeing them; however, when the words came to his mouth, he suddenly changed his mind.

She’s no longer the Xu Wennuan who once viewed me as her everything. To make her really see me, she needs to see for herself how seriously injured I am. She needs to be triggered to understand my sacrifice…

…

The doctor quickly arrived, and Wu Hao removed his shirt in front of Xu Wennuan. When his back was facing the doctor, he secretly glanced at her out of the corner of his eye and, just as he expected, she was staring in horror at his shoulder with her lips pursed tautly. Having known her for 10 years, he knew her many tiny habits. He was well aware that her expression was in reaction to the sympathy she felt for him deep in her heart.Wu Hao lowered his eyes in guilt. “It’s my fault.”

No wonder. I’ve never had a feud with anyone, so it made no sense that I’d be abducted out of the blue. I was paying the price for Wu Hao’s dissolute ways…

Thankfully, nothing happened to me last night. If something had really happened, I wouldn’t be able to die in peace.

If it weren’t for Wu Hao’s injury, Xu Wennuan might have resented him but, because he had injured himself while trying to rescue her, she didn’t comment further about it.

“I’m sorry,” Wu Hao apologized immediately when he saw her remain silent. He then promised, “Don’t worry. She’ll not bother you anymore in the future.”

While Xu Wennuan did not pursue more information about the abduction, she was not so big-hearted to tell him not to worry about it. After a moment of silence, she replied, “It’s all water under the bridge. Let’s not bring it up anymore.”

Wu Hao nodded his head lightly and did not speak any further.
