The front desk receptionist quickly sent a staff member to get an ointment for burns. Hearing the doorbell, Ye Jian signaled Xia Jinyuan to continue running cold water over the burned spot on his hand while she went to open the door.

After adjusting the water, Xia Jinyuan saw the back of his lover who was thanking the staff member.

He looked at the burn on his hand, which was about the size of a coin, and his thin lips could not help but curl up again. This burn… was not a part of his plan. His plan was to accidentally spill the water when he bent down to pick up the blanket and wet it.

Once the blanket was wet, he would have an excuse to squeeze onto the same bed as her. He wasn’t worried that she would instruct the staff to send another blanket over. He would always have a solution.

In the end, no matter how good his plan was, he still made a mistake. He did not expect to burn himself. Although it was quite painful, it was worth it!

“It’s just a small burn. He doesn’t have to go to the hospital. Thank you for your hard work.” Outside, Ye Jian rejected the staff member’s good intentions. She closed the door and hurried back to the kitchen with the ointment.

Scalding was the most common injury in life. Even the most cautious person couldn’t avoid it. Ye Jian didn’t suspect that Xia Jinyuan did it on purpose. She hurriedly returned to the kitchen and saw Xia Jinyuan wiping his hands with a dry towel.

Before they left the hospital, both of them wore dark-colored coats that covered up their winter uniforms. When they entered the room, they habitually took off their coats and hung them in the small closet at the entrance. Hence, he was still wearing his plain winter uniform.

The tall and straight man was dressed in a well-fitting dark green military uniform, looking exceedingly masculine as he stood in the light. His short hair was unruly, and his side profile was exquisite and handsome. Every movement of his naturally exuded elegance, inadvertently making those who saw
him think he was a god.

His hands were rather long and slender. They were not tanned even after being exposed to the sun and wind. After being washed by the water, they were so fair that they seemed to glow slightly. No one would think that it was a pair of hands that often held a gun. They would only think that it was a pair
of slender hands that belonged on a set of black and white piano keys.

Although his hands were beautiful, it was hard not to notice the burn on the back of his hand. Ye Jian frowned again. “You need to wash it for ten minutes. It’s only been five minutes.”
“It’s not serious. Five minutes is enough.” Xia Jinyuan placed the towel properly and tured around to look at his frowning lover. He laughed. “Don’t make that expression. It’s not a big deal. It’s just a small bun.”
Ye Jian retracted her gaze from his handsome face. She took a deep breath and calmed herself down before approaching him. “This is the cooling ointment. Apply it now. After you shower, apply it before you sleep again. Remember to avoid hot water when you’re taking a shower later.”

Ye Jian held the hand that countless women wanted to hold. She squeezed out the light green ointment that had the fragrance of mint and carefully applied a thin layer of it. She lowered her eyes and reminded Xia Jinyuan softly, “Remember this next time. Put down the hot water in your hand first before
you do anything else. Fortunately, it’s only a little burn today, and it’s on the back of your hand. Even if there’s a scar, it won’t affect anything.

“But what if your face had gotten scalded? Captain Xia, even if you quit the army one day, you can definitely rely on your face to make a living after you retire. You should protect such good resources.”
Her boyfriend was handsome, and as a woman, she was naturally happy. Everyone loved beauty, and she was no exception in her second life.

Major Xia was speechless. “Little Fox, I didn’t expect you to care about appearances too. I’ve heard you ask me to protect this face of mine many times now..”
