Shoucheng Academy Guesthouse.

The couple took the key and opened the room.

Qiao Chenyi always handled matters decisively and swiftly, never procrastinating, especially when it came to his two hardworking comrades. Once he agreed, he immediately arranged the room.

The Academy assigned rooms by rank; the leader’s room wasn’t luxurious but was very comfortable.

Thus, this became their temporary resting home, and they could stay long term.

As soon as Gu Tong arrived, she felt an unbearable soreness in her waist and eagerly sat down in a chair, saying, "What a tiring day!"

First, she wore a gown, strutting around like a runway model, then engaged in verbal battles with others, and finally raced cars all the way.

Gu Tong didn’t have a moment of peace all day.

Li Yan knew this little woman was tired, so he didn’t bother her and let her lie on the chair.

In fact, both of them were the same, having rushed around all day under tension, their energy and stamina long overextended, yearning for a good rest.

However, Li Yan didn’t choose to rest; instead, he went to the bathroom and returned with a warm, wet towel.

When Li Yan returned, Gu Tong was still lying in the chair wearing her tattered gown.

He took two steps instead of three and walked over.

’Rip—’ He tore off the hem of Gu Tong’s dress, which was too ragged to wear.

"Honey..." Gu Tong was slightly stunned, then teased, "So you’re into that, huh..."

Li Yan’s mouth twitched slightly but said nothing. Then he squatted down, lifting Gu Tong’s small foot.

The once fair foot was now stained with black dirt; from prolonged running, dodging Electromagnetic Waves, and the gravel on the road, it bore many wounds.

Li Yan used the wet towel to wipe the intertwined black and red stained foot that was unrecognizable.

He wiped it many times but still couldn’t see the skin color.

Rows of fine wounds, rows of scratches.

It was as if they carved into his heart.

Li Yan stood up, searched around briefly, and finally found a small medicine box in the nightstand drawer. He brought it back to treat Gu Tong’s wounds.

The alcohol dabbed on her foot...

Gu Tong winced in pain.

Her small foot moved instinctively.

Causing Li Yan to frown and say, "I’ll be gentler."

"You’re already very gentle; alcohol is just irritating." Gu Tong could sense Li Yan’s cautiousness, worried he might hurt her with every touch.

Li Yan lowered his eyelids, speaking evenly, "Ever since you became a trainee, I often feel like I’m the Royal Doctor and you’re the special trainee. Unintentionally, I’ve treated you several times."

Gu Tong: "..." Makes a lot of sense...

It seems like it’s always her getting hurt and Li Yan applying the medicine...

It’s really turned upside down...

However...

This was a deadly question Gu Tong didn’t dare to answer.

After thinking, she hooked her arms around Li Yan’s neck and said, "I’m your wife and your little cutie."

Li Yan: "..." Cute??? Infuriating!!!

Li Yan’s thin lips parted, saying, "Ever since I fell in love with you, it’s like a time bomb has been planted in my heart, never a moment of peace, that’s you."

Gu Tong thought for a moment and said, "Then you can think of me as a cute little white rabbit, hopping and jumping, eyes flashing red, isn’t that fun?"

Li Yan said, "The one hopping is a rabbit, the one bouncing around is a monkey!"

Gu Tong: "..." Can’t avoid the playful monkey joke, can we!
