The Hunter's Lively Wife

Chapter 47: Chapter 47: The Injury

Niu Dahu didn’t hold back with that stick.

Gu Ya just blocked it for her; he won’t be in trouble, right?

“How’s your back? Do you want me to check it?” Su Yunjin asked Gu Ya.

Gu Ya had protected her like that today. If not for Gu Ya, Niu Dahu’s stick might have very likely landed on her. At this moment, Su Yunjin was genuinely concerned about Gu Ya.

She wasn’t someone who couldn’t recognize favors!

Since Gu Ya was injured because of her, of course, she would be concerned.

To be honest, that hit Gu Ya took on his back wasn’t light at all. Although Gu Ya hadn’t seen it, he could feel it was probably somewhat bruised and swollen.

However, to keep his little wife from worrying, Gu Ya still said nonchalantly, “Don’t worry! I’m fine. I’m a grown man with tough skin; a hit like that is nothing!”

“…” A stick that thick coming down like that would leave a mark even on iron, let alone a man. Gu Ya saying he’s fine, Su Yunjin naturally wouldn’t believe his words.

Walking behind Gu Ya, Su Yunjin placed her hand on the spot where the stick had hit his back. As soon as her hand touched it, she felt a noticeable swelling.

To assess the swelling, Su Yunjin pressed a little harder, and immediately Gu Ya gasped in pain.

“Does it hurt a lot?” Hearing Gu Ya gasp, Su Yunjin quickly withdrew her hand and looked up at him to ask.

Before Gu Ya could reply, Mrs. An approached, “Son, how are you? Are you alright? That Niu Dahu was excessively ruthless in his attack!”

Mrs. An had watched as that thick stick was ruthlessly brought down onto Gu Ya’s back. With a face full of concern, Mrs. An heard Gu Ya’s reassurance, “Mother, it’s nothing serious, just a bit swollen. It’s just a minor injury, and it should be fine in a couple of days.”

“Still you say it’s nothing! That stick was so thick, it was scary even to look at.” Mrs. An was heartbroken for Gu Ya, while Mrs. Chu came over, taking the initiative to say, “Third brother, I have some ointment for swelling in my room. I got it from my elder brother when I last visited my parent’s home. Just wait, I’ll go get it for you now.”

“If you have the ointment, five-in-law, then quickly go get it for your third brother,” Mrs. An urged Mrs. Chu, who nodded in response, “Mother, I’ll go get it for third brother right now.”

As Mrs. Chu left, Su Yunjin looked at Gu Ya and said, “I’ll help you back to your room!” Gu Ya’s injury was on his back, and it wasn’t convenient for him to apply the medicine himself. Su Yunjin planned to help Gu Ya back to his room first and then apply the medicine to him.

Gu Ya looked at his little wife and nodded, “Hmm!”

Today’s commotion, started by Mrs. Feng and her husband, had left the Gu Family’s dinner unfinished until now, and the dishes on the table were almost cold. As Su Yunjin helped Gu Ya back to his room to medicate him, Mrs. An and the rest of the family continued to sit down and eat, not bothering to reheat the cold dishes and just making do with a meal.

Entering the room, Su Yunjin first helped Gu Ya lie down, then told him, “Take off your clothes! Your injury is on your back, and it’s not easy for you to apply the medicine yourself. When the five-in-law brings the medicine, I’ll help you apply it.”

Gu Ya, worried that his little wife would be concerned about the severity of his injury, initially didn’t plan on letting her see it, but she had already started helping him undress without waiting for his consent.

Gu Ya held his little wife’s hand that was undressing him, only to see her give a mischievous smile, “What? Don’t dare to undress? Are you shy?”

Gu Ya was at a loss for words!

To avoid letting his little wife think he was indeed shy, he said stiffly, “I’ll undress myself!”
