For a Show

Yun Shu hesitated.

At this time, she was wearing a short sleeve top. If she wanted to let Qi Zheng look at her shoulder, should she take off her top?

As she was still thinking of what she wanted to do, Qi Zheng sat behind her and waited.

Pursing her lips, Yun Shu then tugged at her clothes, hoping that it would be enough for Qi Zheng to look at them. However, the man did not make a move.

Just as she was about to turn around and look at him again, Qi Zheng suddenly stood up again. "Just wait here for a while."

Yun Shu shot him a perplexed room. But other than waiting for him, there was nothing else that she could do.

A few minutes later, Qi Zheng returned to her side with a bathrobe. He handed it to her and spoke, "You can wear this temporarily."

Yun Shu turned around and stared at the bathrobe in a daze.

"You can use that room." Qi Zheng pointed in a direction. "Just come out again when you're done."

"Oh." She took the bathrobe from him and entered the room. Once she closed the door behind her, Yun Shu leaned on the door and heaved a long sigh.

Being alone with him in this empty house made her anxious.

Forget it. She shouldn't be thinking too much. Qi Zheng is a doctor. Perhaps, there was no difference between a man and a woman for him.

Yun Shu took off her tops and changed into the bathrobe. Taking a deep breath, Yun Shu tightened the bathrobe around her body and came out.

A breath of relief escaped her when Qi Zheng was not around. Yun Shu sat down again and waited. Her hands tightened on her knees.

The sound of his coughing surprised her.

Before she could turn around and look at him, Qi Zheng had spoken again.

"Just relax." His hands were touching her hair

Then, the bathrobe slid down her shoulder.

Yun Shi bit her lips as she felt his finger around her shoulder. The pain made her hiss.

"Bear with it for a while."

Her body tensed. Qi Zheng's voice was very close to her ear and it was making her slightly ticklish. Perhaps, it was because they were alone in the house. Yun Shu could not help but feel a little strange.

Then, something cold pressed on her shoulder.

"Fortunately, your injury isn't bad," Qi Zheng spoke. "You don't need to go to the hospital, but you need to take a lot of rest. Don't lift anything heavy with this hand. If it is still sore, you can also rub some ointments."

Yun Shu nodded as she continued to listen to his reminder.

Qi Zheng had applied some ice on her shoulder, but Yun Shu could not help but feel that the area where his fingers had brushed against her skin felt a bit hot.

After a while, Qi Zheng finally stood up again. "It's done. Go and change your clothes. Later, I will take you around the house."

"Oh." Yun Shu stood up quickly and ran into the previous room to get a change.

Noticing the mirror at the side, Yun Shu walked over to check on her injury. Her eyes widened in shock upon seeing the slight bluish bruise on her body.

That scumbag!

She did not expect him to be that strong.

Yun Shu walked out again after wearing her clothes. The scent of coffee filled the air. She swept her gaze around the place and found Qi Zheng standing in front of the kitchen counter.

He turned around to look at her and lifted the mug in his hand. "Do you drink coffee?" He watched her nodded and walked over to the dining area. "Have a drink."

Yun Shu walked over and held the mug in her hand. She took a sip slowly only to realize that it was a little hot. She quickly bit her tongue before putting the mug aside.

Qi Zheng did not seem as if he noticed anything.

"Let me bring you around the house," Qi Zheng said. "As you can see, my apartment is very small. I don't usually spend my time around the house. So you can be more at ease." He placed his mug on the table and waved his hand at Yun Shu.

"There are only three rooms in this house," Qi Zheng spoke. He pointed to the door and spoke, "This is my room." He was about to move to the next room when he suddenly remembered something. "That's right, will your family help to move tomorrow?"

Yun Shu nodded. "My mother and grandmother planned to come over as well. They wanted to look at the place we're going to live in."

Qi Zheng frowned as he thought about it for a while. Then he pushed the door open and walked in. "In that case, tomorrow, you should move into this room."

"This room... isn't it yours?" Yun Shu looked at the man in surprise.

They are not going to share one room, are they?

The thought made her panic. This was not what they have agreed on.

"It's just for a show," Qi Zheng said. "Your mother and grandmother would be suspicious if I let you stay in another room, right?"

Yun Shu thought that there was some truth in his words.

If her mother knew that they were going to sleep in a different room, they would definitely be suspicious. Then, they will need to explain what happened. Yun Shu did not want to see the disappointed look on her mother's face.

Qi Zheng showed Yun Shu around the room before he walked out again. He moved to the next door and spoke, "This would be your room. After your mother had gone back, you can move your things over here."

This was the room that Yun Shu had used to change her clothes. There was a large bed in the center of the room, a small table, and a cupboard. The room was empty without any decoration, but it should be enough for her to stay in.

"These were the things that I could prepare within short notice," Qi Zheng said. "If you needed anything, you can just tell me about it."

Yun Shu looked around the room before turning to Qi Zheng when she recalled something important. "Then, what about the rent?

"You don't have to worry about that." His gaze softened. "You don't have to pay me anything for as long as you are living here. Just consider it part of the payment for helping me out."

How about writing me a review?
