Bai Jing wiped the blood away, she looked at the wound and said, “The bullet is stuck inside. I need to take it out.”
“Miss Bai, this is a gunshot wound. Do you know how to treat it? If you don’t, don’t pretend to be the boss. Otherwise, you’ll embarrass yourself and others.”
Bai Jing did not say a word. She was checking the medicine box and found that there was no anesthetic for injection.
Xia Ying saw that Bai Jing did not refute and used her sarcasm to mock her, “What? I was right. I have said it before. How could a greenhouse flower like you get used to such a bloody life? A delicate flower should live in the environment that she should be in. She should not force herself to follow the big tree. The happiness that she is forced to have is not true happiness.”
“I risked my life to obtain the map of Satan’s headquarters so that the branches and leaves of the big tree would flourish. I will stand together with the big tree and welcome all the wind, rain, thunder, and lightning. I will not be a rose that clings to the big tree.”
“With this map of the headquarters, it is only a matter of time before we take down Satan. With Satan gone, my undercover career will be over. The problem of being exposed is not a problem at all.”
“There’s no more anesthetic. I will remove it directly!”
Bai Jing suddenly interrupted Xia Ying’s self-talk which stunned her for a moment before she looked up at Bai Jing. “What did you just say?”
Bai Jing pointed at the medicine box. “I just said that there’s no more anesthetic. I want to cut open the wound and remove the bullet directly. A strong woman like Miss Xia who goes through bloody battles every day would not need any anesthetic to remove the bullet.”
Xia Ying’s face turned pale instantly.
“Only a flower like me would be afraid of pain and blood. Miss Xia, am I right?”
Xia Ying had boasted earlier, how could she say that she was afraid at a time like this?
She gritted her teeth and said to Bai Jing, “I’m not afraid of pain. I’m afraid that you don’t know what to do! It doesn’t matter if I die, but if I die, no one will be able to help the boss take down Satan!”
“You only bled so little, die my ass!”
Bai Jing had a look of disdain on her face as she started to treat her wounds. Because she was impatient with Xia Ying, her hands became faster and fiercer. Xia Ying hugged the wooden box tightly in pain as she stared unblinkingly at Si Qian. No one knew if she was seeking Si Qian’s comfort or if she was treating Si Qian as an anesthetic.
Bai Jing’s movements were very fast. In less than a minute, the bullet was taken out, followed by suturing and bandaging. It was done in one go. Even Xia Ying could not help but be surprised by Bai Jing’s skillful treatment of the wound.
After Bai Jing finished bandaging everything, Xia Ying suddenly let out a breath. Her face was pale as she looked at Si Qian with some grievance and desire.
Chou Hai coughed softly and turned his face away awkwardly. Si Qian’s gaze had been following Bai Jing the whole time. He looked at her beautiful fingers that were like dancing piano keys, deftly treating the wounds. Once again, he felt that his wife had more and more secrets.
Xia Ying saw that Si Qian had been looking at Bai Jing. The deep love in his eyes was the thing that she yearned for the most in her life. However, Si Qian had given it to Bai Jing without holding anything back. How could she be at ease?
Xia Ying pretended to be weak as she lifted the wooden box towards Si Qian. She was planning to fall into Si Qian’s arms when he approached the wooden box. She did not believe that he would not have any pity for her.
Bai Jing’s database had already anticipated Xia Ying’s plan. Just as Xia Ying lifted her hand to speak, Bai Jing fell into Si Qian’s arms. “I’m tired. Carry me back to bed!”
Si Qian immediately became nervous. He instructed Chou Hai to take care of Xia Ying. Without even looking at Xia Ying, he carried Bai Jing and left.
Xia Ying was so angry that her lungs were about to explode. She slammed the wooden box onto Chou Hai’s body and he quickly caught it.. He looked at Xia Ying worriedly but he did not know how to comfort her.
