Reborn As Divine Doctor to Rule the World

Chapter 21: Chapter 21 What’s going on?

The guard was just about to push him inside when he saw his master’s gaze and immediately let go, standing guard outside the door.

Shao He lit the candle, and the room instantly brightened up. Only then did she notice that something seemed off about this man, as there was a strong smell of blood on him.

“You are injured.”

These words were not a question, but a statement.

“Could you bandage me?” Pei Huaian asked weakly.

“Sure.” Shao He nodded, turned around to take the golden sore medicine from the cabinet, and found some gauze to hand to him.

“Wait a moment.”

After finishing speaking, she went to the kitchen to fetch some hot water, preparing to clean his wound, and then took some disinfectant from a mental space.

Pei Huaian’s gaze fell on those pale, delicate hands, a trace of darkness flickered in his eyes, but when he lifted his face, it had returned to a calm and unrippled expression.

“Take off your clothes.” Shao He was preparing, giving orders to the neatly dressed man.

Pei Huaian slowly lifted his arm, an action that seemed to take a great deal of effort.

Unable to stand watching, Shao He went over, unfastened his belt, peeled back his clothes, and gazed at the pale skin, the fine collarbone, her eyes inadvertently drifting downward.

Looking at the eight-pack abs on his abdomen, she couldn’t help but marvel that he truly was a beautiful man, though she wondered what his face looked like.

“Have you looked enough?” Pei Huaian caught her infatuated gaze, understanding for the first time the use of having a good body.

Shao He concealed the expression in her eyes, checked his wounds, discovered they were sword cuts, wiped away the blood around, sprinkled golden sore medicine on the wounds, and wrapped them with bandages.

During the close contact, she suddenly smelled a faint scent of sandalwood on him, which blurred her memories of the original host. That night she was drugged and shared intimacy with a man, it seemed to be this scent too.

Remembering that the man had a birthmark on his waist, she was about to stretch out her hand to check his waist for it when her wrist was suddenly grabbed.

“I can take care of the rest myself,” Pei Huaian said, his heartbeat accelerating as he restrained himself, somewhat regretting his folly in wanting to meet her instead of seeking the mansion doctor to dress the wound.

Shao He withdrew her hand. Perhaps she was overthinking. How could a man in a wheelchair share a moment of passion with her? Even if he desired, he was powerless.

“Thank you.” Pei Huaian finished dressing, breathing a sigh of relief.

Shao He nodded, “It’s nothing, just lending a hand.”

After speaking, Shao He turned around and left.

“Miss Shao.”

She halted as a call came from behind her, turning her head to look at him.

Each time she saw those deep eyes, she feared she would fall into them.

“It must be very hard for you, raising a child alone, right?”

His tone was full of concern and worry.

“Hmm?” Shao He blinked, puzzled,

Pei Huaian lowered his gaze to hide the emotion in his eyes, and when he looked up again, his expression was placid,

“Never mind, just asking,” Pei Huaian pursed his lips, a fleeting complex look crossing his eyes.

As morning light streamed into the room, Shao He woke up to find Pei Huaian had vanished.

She did not mind, freshened up, and was ready to continue seeing patients.

Suddenly, the sound of gongs and drums came from outside, drawing many patients out to see the commotion. Shao He also got up and followed them.

Outside, the sound of gongs and drums filled the air, firecrackers were popping, and two men were carrying a plaque towards them, followed by Lady Jhiang and Jhiang Yijia.

All along the way, many people turned to look.

What was going on?

Shao He frowned and looked over, recognizing the followers as Lady Jhiang and her daughter.

“Doctor Shao.” Lady Jhiang hurried over with her daughter.
