Chapter 1484: You Are My Little Love Song (51)
Just as the cla.s.s was about to begin at one in the afternoon, Qin Siting finally arrived.
At that time, s.h.i.+ Niange was leaning on her desk, staring at her phone. When she heard footsteps approaching, she subconsciously raised her head. When she saw that it was Qin Siting, she immediately sat up.
“Qin Siting!” she called him softly.
“En,” Qin Siting responded.
“Why didn’t you come in the morning?” s.h.i.+ Niange looked at him from head to toe, afraid that something had happened to him. Otherwise, how could he not appear in the morning? As she looked, she said, “I called you, but you didn’t answer.”
Qin Siting sat down. “I don’t have my phone with me.”
s.h.i.+ Niange originally wanted to say something, but before she opened her mouth to speak, her gaze landed on his left hand.
His left hand was bandaged. The white bandage was glaring, and there seemed to be some blood on his fingers that had not been washed away.
She felt a sharp pain in her heart and could barely speak.
“What happened to your hand?” She stared at him for a long time before she found her voice and asked.
Qin Siting did not answer. At this moment, the bell rang and he did not speak.
s.h.i.+ Niange looked at his hand. She couldn’t understand why his hand was injured this morning when he was still fine in the library last night. Looking at the bandage and the way he could barely move his left hand, she knew that the injury must be serious.
Did something happen to him this morning or last night?
He didn’t even send her a message or call. Now that he was here, she didn’t say anything.
How could she be at ease with such an injury?
When s.h.i.+ Niange heard that the teacher had come in, she looked away. However, her heart was in pain. Her heart ached and she was even a little angry. As a result, she did not want to ask anything. She did not want to know the reason. She laid on the table and did not look at him again.
Qin Siting heard the noise when she took out her pen and glanced at her, but he could only see the back of her ponytail. He looked away, and after a while, he looked at her again.
s.h.i.+ Niange didn’t dare to look at Qin Siting’s left hand for the whole afternoon. She didn’t even say a word to him when she wanted to go to the bathroom with Zhao Xiaoqing after cla.s.s. She only went out with Zhao Xiaoqing when Qin Siting got up. When she came back, he took a look at her but she didn’t say anything. When he got up, she sat in and still didn’t want to talk to him.
However, when he stood up, she could see his left hand at a close distance. Looking at the bandage, she could see that there seemed to be some blood seeping out of his palm. Her heart hurt as though it had been p.r.i.c.ked by a needle. Every hole that was pierced by the needle was piercingly painful. It was painful to the point of discomfort.
Before school ended, s.h.i.+ Niange finished copying the homework the teacher had given her. She tore it off and placed it on Qin Siting’s desk, but she still did not speak to him.
Qin Siting glanced at the homework s.h.i.+ Niange had helped him with. He did not ask her to help, but even though his left hand was injured, it was still difficult to write so many words than to hold the notes and papers together. She had written one for him without saying a word and then tossed it to him without saying a word. She was clearly still concerned, but the anger she carried was still too obvious.
Qin Siting did not say anything, but he gratefully folded the homework and placed it in the book.
No matter what he did, he could only use his right hand. It was actually very inconvenient.
s.h.i.+ Niange frowned and reached out to help him put the book into his bag. She then zipped up his bag.
The two of them did not speak. Today was not considered early, but it was not late either. School could be dismissed at eight. The two of them walked ahead as usual. In the past twenty minutes after school, they rarely spoke, but today, the atmosphere was especially silent.
s.h.i.+ Niange remained silent.
However, Qin Siting could feel her gaze. In the heavy atmosphere, s.h.i.+ Niange kept glancing at Qin Siting’s face, trying her best not to look at his hand. Otherwise, her heart would really hurt.
Every time Qin Siting felt her gaze, he would turn to look at her. His expression was very calm, and his gaze on s.h.i.+ Niange was also very calm.
s.h.i.+ Niange could not understand. What was going on between such a gentle and outstanding person and his mother? How did his hand become so injured overnight?
Halfway through the journey, s.h.i.+ Niange had already forgotten about her rationality when she returned home from the library yesterday. She still could not bear to not say anything along the way. After all, she had waited for him for the whole morning and did not speak in the afternoon. After a while, she would not be able to see him again.
She asked softly, “What happened to your hand?”
Qin Siting then glanced at her and answered, “I was cut by broken gla.s.s. It’s a superficial wound. I’m fine.”
Nothing?
If it wasn’t serious, he could have just wrapped it up in the morning. Why would he not come to school for the whole morning?
She pinched the hem of her school uniform and asked in a m.u.f.fled voice, “How did you get hurt? Did you hurt yourself? Or… did something happen?”
Qin Siting was silent for a moment before smiling and not answering.
s.h.i.+ Niange waited for a while but did not hear his answer. She knew that he did not want to say it.
“I’ll be heading home on another road soon. School ended quite early today. Where are you staying? Do you have any bandages or gauze at home? The gauze on your hand has already been soaked in blood. It should be bandaged again. I’ll go to your place to bandage it.”
Qin Siting stopped in his tracks. He seemed to have thought of something as he looked at the road leading to her home and asked, “You know how to bandage it?”
“Of course. Have you forgotten that I’m studying medicine? I’ve been by my grandfather’s side since I was a child. I learned this kind of external dressing when I was twelve or thirteen years old. I am even more professional than many outpatient nurses.” Speaking of this, s.h.i.+ Niange felt that she could finally do him a favor.
Qin Siting nodded.
s.h.i.+ Niange waited for him to continue.
However, when they reached the intersection ahead, Qin Siting did not continue forward. Instead, he walked toward the intersection that led to Lishui Villa. She looked at him in surprise and followed him. “You…”
“Let’s go to your place,” he said.
s.h.i.+ Niange was surprised. He was going to her place?
She did have a medicine box at home. There was no lack of bandages inside. Ever since she was young, her family had never lacked all sorts of medicine. After all, she had an old doctor’s bone at home. These were all fixed habits in life.
But she didn’t expect him to choose to go to her place.
Tonight, Uncle Qin was not around, and Auntie Xiang was still with the s.h.i.+ family. In other words, Qin Siting was going to her house in the middle of the night…
