Chapter 622 - Not Everyone Can Be as Lucky (1/2)

Jinde glanced up from his table only to see Xin Lan standing in the doorway. ”Xin Lan?” He took a closer look and got up. ”What happened? You're bleeding!” He hurried over and gently touched Xin Lan's shoulder, trying to get a closer look at the wound. ”You didn't go up against that fallen god on your own, did you?”

Xin Lan shook his head and watched those fair hands tug at his robe to examine the wound.

”This doesn't look good. The weapon barely missed your heart. How come?” He glanced up and met Xin Lan's eyes.

”I … was careless.”

”You?” Jinde smiled and patted his other shoulder. ”I guess being too strong also comes with its own difficulties, hm? You should pay more attention to your safety.”

”Yes, Master.”

”Alright, come in then. We should treat that.” He went to his own room and rummaged through his spatial ring. Mn, with Xin Lan's constitution, this shouldn't be too hard to take care of. He had been hurt much worse before. It was close to the heart though. He couldn't take this lightly.

Xin Lan slowly followed him but once again stepped in the doorway. What exactly was he doing here? This injury wasn't that bad. He didn't need to bother his Master with this. So why …

Jinde took out what he needed and put everything down next to the bed. Ah, it really was a pity that he didn't have a room just for doing this kind of thing. He should talk with Jin Yu about this when he came back. Thinking of his husband, he smiled and turned to the door. ”Xin Lan? Still not coming over?”

Xin Lan nodded and walked toward him one step after the other, his breath caught in his throat. He didn't take his eyes off Jinde when he sat down.

”Your robe.”

Xin Lan undid his belt and let go, slowly opening his robe.

”Aiya, are you really hurt so much that you need so long?” Jinde pushed the fabric off his shoulders and started to rinse the wound. ”Mn, it's a clean stab. With your constitution …” He dried Xin Lan's skin and took one of the vials, pouring the salve inside onto his hand. ”It should be gone completely in two weeks' time but you should be able to move normally in about three to four hours.”

”Ah.”

Jinde busied himself while Xin Lan's gaze followed every movement of his.
