Lu Yanchen looked at Peng Xiaoyue, who was persistently pursuing him, and spoke with a hint of indifference, "My significant other doesn't allow me to casually talk to other women. Otherwise, she will teach me a lesson. She can pinch quite hard. Peng Xiaoyue, I'm sorry, but I can't talk to you anymore. If you have something to say, let's go to a crowded place over there. It's better to avoid suspicion, alright?"

Seeing Lu Yanchen earnestly mention the strict management by his significant other, Peng Xiaoyue instantly felt a surge of jealousy. If she had agreed to tolerate his shortcomings earlier, wouldn't she be his significant other now?

Peng Xiaoyue bit her lip. "Lu Yanchen! Why don't you just separate from that tigress of a woman? If you're with me, I'll treat you well!"

However, Lu Yanchen wore an expression as if he hadn't heard clearly. "What did you say? I didn't hear it clearly."

Peng Xiaoyue could only repeat herself, "Separate from that tigress of a woman and be with me."

Lu Yanchen looked at her thoughtfully. "What? You say you're a tigress?"

Peng Xiaoyue was stunned, realizing that Lu Yanchen was intentionally playing with her. Unable to contain her frustration, she stamped her foot, "Lu Yanchen, you bastard!"

Turning around, she ran away. Lu Yanchen glanced at Gu Ling from a distance. Gu Ling hastily made eye contact with him, immediately lowering her head and couldn't help but smile.

Peng Xiaoyue was definitely not going to get a good outcome with Lu Yanchen.

Feeling upset, Peng Xiaoyue retreated into the house and refused to work. Fortunately, there wasn't much work at the moment. Lu Yanchen walked up to Gu Ling and casually said, "Educated youth Gu, could you help me bandage the wound?"

Gu Ling was taken aback, almost spilling the bucket in her hands. Finally, Li Haixia noticed her. With a thoughtful look, she glanced at Gu Ling and said, "Gu Ling, go and help Lieutenant Lu with his wound. We can handle these tasks."

Gu Ling nodded and led Lu Yanchen into a room on the first floor where they kept commonly used supplies, including some spare medicines.

She entered the room, her back to Lu Yanchen, searching for things. Although she clearly remembered where she had placed the gauze last time, she felt a bit flustered.

After searching for a while, she finally found it, and Lu Yanchen had already sat down.

As Gu Ling approached, her heart, which had barely calmed down, couldn't help but feel uneasy when she saw his wound.

Lu Yanchen rolled up his sleeve, revealing a scraped area on his arm. Although it hadn't split open, the reddish abrasion looked alarming.

Gently cleaning the wound with a cotton ball, Gu Ling worked in silence, and Lu Yanchen remained quiet as if he didn't feel any pain.

Once she finished tending to the wound on his arm, Gu Ling couldn't help but recall his previous injuries on his calf, the one near his wrist on his right hand from last time, and now this new injury...

Her eyes welled up with tears, and she tried hard to restrain herself, attempting not to care. But how could she not care?

Her affection for him was growing stronger; how could she possibly remain unmoved watching him get hurt?

Taking a gentle breath, she asked, "Are there any other injuries?"

Lu Yanchen pointed to his head, "There might be a little scratch inside my hair."

Gu Ling then parted his hair to take a look. Lu Yanchen's hair wasn't long, and with a gentle sweep, she saw it. Initially, she thought his hair was sticking together due to some mud, but now, up close, she realized that there was a cut on his scalp, and the blood had already coagulated.
