Chapter 1697
Argh, no! What was she thinking?!
Qiao Yiyi immediately snapped out of her daze. She was infuriated and, glaring at him angrily, shouted, “Get out!”
Without another word, he immediately turned around and walked out. He had no desire at all to stay for a bit longer.
Qiao Yiyi: …
She was a girl, no matter what, but Lu Nanze never treated her like one.
Anyway, since he had left, she could escape.
Hence, Qiao Yiyi looked out and saw that she was on the second floor. There was no one keeping watch outside. It would be very easy to escape.
At this thought, Qiao Yiyi got on her feet. As she prepared to make her escape, she realized that…
Her body suit had been ripped apart. It was impossible for her to put it back on!
And in that room, there was only a bathrobe.
If she ran out of this place in a bathrobe… They were out in the suburbs, in the middle of nowhere. Where was she going to buy clothes?!
Then she understood why, when she had shouted at Lu Nanze to get out, he had done so without even looking worried that she would escape. So this was the reason.
Lu Nanze, he simply thought of every detail.
She had to give it to him. She sat back down into the bathtub and thought hard.
As she was doing so, Lu Nanze said, “If you don’t do something about that wound now, it’s going to get infected.”
Upon hearing those words, Qiao Yiyi turned and looked at her shoulder.
Right now, it was starting to feel a little numb.
So in fact, just a moment ago, Lu Nanze had been trying to clean her wound. But it could have been washed just with running water, why had he thrown her into a bathtub? Wouldn’t that make an infection more likely?!
Qiao Yiyi silently laughed at his decision. Then she turned on the shower head and placed the water stream on the wound.
After she was done, she stepped out of the bathtub.
She picked up the bathrobe and draped it over herself. Then she looked at the doorway.
From what had happened today, she was quite sure Lu Nanze had known she had been hiding in the trunk, but he had taken her with him anyway. This told her that he probably wouldn’t take her to the police station either.
However, why did the man want to help her?
Could it be that he had already guessed her identity?
Wait…
If he already knew her identity, he wouldn’t have left the mask on her. In addition, he wouldn’t have looked so calm. Rather, he would have looked shocked.
Hence, there must be a reason why Lu Nanze had rescued her.
These thoughts, on the contrary, calmed Qiao Yiyi down.
She took a deep breath and looked into the mirror, trying to calm down.
No matter what that man was going to tell her, she should keep her composure. This was the only way she could negotiate.
On this note, Qiao Yiyi opened the bathroom door and walked out.
The moment she stepped out, she saw the man sitting on the sofa. He looked at her and pointed to a seat. “Take a seat.”
She stood before the sofa.
He took out a first aid kit and said, “Since Bai Anan has got the city under martial law, we’d be walking right into the tiger’s lair if I took you to the hospital. So I’m the only one now who can help you get that bullet out. I’ve just never done anything like this and don’t know much about it. Would you dare let me have a go at this?”
Upon hearing this, Qiao Yiyi frowned and said, “She really sees me a threat!”
Lu Nanze was surprised. Even in a moment like this, she was holding her head up high and did not feel the least embarrassed.
He looked at Traceless and, for the first time, felt a semblance of admiration for this girl.
Holding her gaze steadily, he said, “Come here.”
She conveniently sat down on the sofa. The next moment, the man tugged at her bathrobe and uncovered her shoulder. Then, her full naked body was exposed before him.
