The protein powder did not taste good. Gu Shen smelled it and turned his head away in disdain.
"Do I have to drink it?"
"You have to." Yan Xi did not back down. "Take another painkiller after that."
Gu Shen took a deep breath and forced himself to finish the protein powder at one go. No matter how bad it tasted, it was still better than the blood he smelt today.
Yan Xi wiped the water from the corner of Gu Shen's mouth and sighed softly. "Rest early tonight. I'll be in the room next door."
"No." Gu Shen grabbed Yan Xi's wrist.
"What?"
"The wound is inflamed. I may have a fever tonight. Can you stay with me?"
"Do you want me to keep you company tonight? Yan Xi was a little conflicted. She was afraid that she would accidentally touch Gu Shen's wound.
"Keep me company." Gu Shen frowned and looked at Yan Xi stubbornly.
