If The Moon Won’t Hold You - Chapter 21.1

Because of Cen Ning’s return, everyone ate together tonight. Aunt Chen was busy in the kitchen, and Cen Ning helped her by the side.

“Okay, okay, you can go out and rest. I can do it alone.” Said Aunt Chen, smiling.

Cen Ning was washing vegetables at the side. “It’s okay, Aunt Chen. I would be at a loose end anyway, and I can still learn to cook by staying here.”

Aunt Chen: “You—”

“I finished washing these.” Cen Ning put the green vegetables on the chopping board. “Does it need cutting?”

“This…” Aunt Chen was about to speak when she noticed the sound of a car outside. She looked out the window. “Did Xingzhi come back?”

Cen Ning also followed her gaze to the window and indeed saw the tail of a car passing by.

Aunt Chen: “You go out and see if it’s Xingzhi, I’ll do it.”

She glanced at him while maintaining her composure. He probably just came back from the army, since he was wearing a dark green military uniform. It made him appear more handsome.

The military trousers wrapped around both legs, slender and straight. It inexplicably gave people a sense of taboo. Moving further up, was a broad and manly back and shoulders. His shoulders were adorned with horizontal bars and five-pointed stars.

“Where is the medicine box that is at home?” Yan Xingzhi suddenly turned around. Cen Ning was startled and immediately turned her eyes away.

Yan Xingzhi: “…”

After Cen Ning turned her back to him, she was stunned for a while. Was she guilty of something?

Yan Xingzhi: “Cen Ning?”

“Ah! Aunt, Aunt Chen put it in the study! I’ll go get it for you!” Cen Ning didn’t even look at him and ran to the study.

When she finally got to the study, Cen Ning, who ran away from Yan Xingzhi’s sight, felt a little annoyed. She used the backside of her hand to feel the temperature of her cheek. It was just him wearing a military uniform. It wasn’t like she had never seen it before. Why was she blushing?

Cen Ning silently laid her face on the cabinet in the study to cool down for a while, and when the heat on her face finally subsided, she strolled out with the medicine box.

“Here.”

Yan Xingzhi took it over. “Thank you.”

“What do you need the medicine box for?” Cen Ning frowned. “Are you injured?”

Yan Xingzhi reached out and patted her head. “I’m fine.”

Cen Ning immediately said, “Where are you injured?”

He pursed his lips lightly, without answering the question, and abruptly asked, “Do you have a boyfriend?”

The worried expression on Cen Ning’s face suddenly froze, her face distorted between the two frightening things “he is injured” and “I have a boyfriend”. Then she uttered a single syllable word embarrassingly: “Ah?”

Yan Xingzhi raised his eyebrows slightly. “Is it that person from the other night?”

Cen Ning blurted out subconsciously: “No!”

But as soon as that last word came out, she felt that her reaction was a bit extreme. She also hoped that he would know that she would no longer be his “unwilling promise”.

So after thinking for a while, she whispered again: “Not yet.”

No, no, yes or no.

Senior Brother Xia Yi treated her very well. She tried to open her heart…

“Oh.” Yan Xingzhi lowered his eyes and looked at the blushing girl. His heart twitched strangely, and he frowned and turned around to go upstairs.

Cen Ning looked at his disappearing back and was a little melancholic about finding that he hadn’t answered where he was injured.

“Ningning, is it Xingzhi?” After a while, Aunt Chen stuck her head out of the kitchen.

Cen Ning nodded: “Mhm.”

“What is he?”

“His bedroom.”

“What is he doing, going to his bedroom as soon as he comes back?”

“I don’t know.” Cen Ning hesitated and said, “He took the medicine box.”

“Oh, the medicine box. Did he get hurt somewhere? People like him are often injured.” Aunt Chen hurriedly went back to look at the cooking soup, “Ningning, go and see if it is serious. This child won’t say a thing about his injuries.”

“Oh, okay.”

Cen Ning went upstairs and knocked on the door of the room.

After a long while, Yan Xingzhi’s voice came from inside: “Come in.”

Cen Ning pushed the door open with permission, but she didn’t expect to see a scene that made her panic as soon as she entered the door.

She took a deep breath and spun her back on Yan Xingzhi again.

“What are you doing?” Yan Xingzhi sat beside the bed and watched her with an amused half-smile.

Cen Ning’s ears turned red. “I, I… Aunt Chen asked me to see if your injury is serious.”

“It’s fine.”

“Alright then, I’ll leave first!”

“Wait.”

Cen Ning’s hand froze on the doorknob.

“Come here and help me apply the medicine.” Yan Xingzhi looked at Cen Ning’s red ears, and there was a faint smile on the corner of his lips. “It’s not convenient for me to apply medicine at the back of my shoulders.”

Cen Ning: “…”

Cen Ning had only taken a glance just now, but she still saw clearly. He took off his military coat, revealing a light military green shirt underneath. But the shirt was not worn properly at this moment, the buttons were all unbuttoned, and the tie was pulled aside.

He had taken off one sleeve and left half of his body naked and exposed.

Cen Ning blushed the more she thought about it, and she took a deep breath and tried her best not to be so useless.

“What are you doing, waiting? Come here.”

“Oh……”

In the end, she turned her head, and Cen Ning walked to the bed without looking sideways, only staring at the medicine box on the edge of the bed. “Which one do I use?”

Yan Xingzhi lifted the medicine in his hand: “This one, apply it.”

“Mhm.”

Cen Ning calmed down and looked at the injury on the upper right side of his back.

Just at a glance, it was startling to the eyes.
