By the time the final wound was sutured, Gu Jiao had already slumped back in the chair and fallen asleep.
The outdoors reflected an expanse of bright snow, momentarily casting doubt upon whether it was the natural light of daybreak or the glistening snow that was illuminating the surroundings.
Physician Tong was soaked through, feeling exhausted, yet he didn't rest immediately. He diligently followed all of Gu Jiao's post-operative procedures, meticulously handling all medical supplies and materials after every surgery.
Actually, Gu Jiao had never taught him; he had learned everything through his own observations.
Gu Jiao trusted him because he was very attentive. Otherwise, Gu Jiao wouldn't have fallen asleep.
When Physician Tong finally felt a moment of relief, Mo Qianxue, lying on the operation table, gradually regained consciousness.
Though she was only awake for a brief moment.
She saw a masked, oddly dressed young man sitting in a chair beside her. Something connected their arms, and the young man's blood was flowing into her body.
Physician Tong didn't realize that Mo Qianxue had awakened. By the time he finished closing the little medicine chest and turned to check on Mo Qianxue, she had once again slipped into unconsciousness.
He measured Mo Qianxue's blood pressure and noted that the situation appeared to be quite favorable.
He stopped the blood transfusion.
He called Gu Jiao twice, "Physician Gu, Physician Gu."
Unfortunately, Gu Jiao did not respond to him, perhaps due to being thoroughly exhausted, or maybe as a result of excessive blood loss leading to a state of weakness.
Physician Tong didn't want to disturb her further, so he found a blanket and covered her.
The next step involved moving Mo Qianxue onto the bed. Despite being a man, his physical strength was limited, so he had to ask someone else for help.
As he opened the door, he saw a tall figure standing in the corridor.
Standing tall in a pale blue cloak, he exuded an air of elegance, and the light reflected from the snowy landscape revealed the exquisite and jade-like features of his face.
Physician Tong had never seen such a handsome man before, so he was momentarily stunned.
The man spoke first, "Is the surgery finished?"
His voice was slightly magnetic, cool, and low, matching his appearance.
"Ah... Y-yes, it's... finished." Physician Tong stuttered.
"May I come in?" The man asked again.
"Uh... yes, you... can."
Actually, he couldn't allow it!
The operating room wasn't meant for outsiders!
Physician Tong didn't even know what he was saying.
Having lived most of his lifetime, encountering someone who seemed like a celestial being for the first time left him muddled.
Xiao Heng stepped into the room.
As he passed by, Physician Tong noticed that Xiao Heng's shoulders were covered in snowflakes. How long had they been operating here? How long had this young man been waiting in the snowy night?
Approaching Gu Jiao, Xiao Heng bent down his tall stature and gently called out, "JiaoJiao." contemporary romance
Gu Jiao's breathing was steady and continuous.
Xiao Heng removed his gloves, then proceeded to wrap one hand around Gu Jiao's back and the other around the back of her knee, lifting her up while holding both her and the blanket together in his embrace.
Gu Jiao was wrapped tightly, not even a hint of her head was exposed to the snow and wind.
Physician Tong gaped in astonishment as he watched the young man carry Physician Gu out from the operating room. Physician Gu was completely wrapped up and the only way he recognized her as Physician Gu was from the shoes she wore.
Ah...
This...
Having witnessed the God of Slaughter surnamed Gu, who appeared capable of annihilating anything and everything, Physician Tong found it hard to believe his own eyes at this moment.
Does the God of Slaughter have such gentle moments too?
Though she was asleep, her aura was different from her usual self.
Xiao Heng carried Gu Jiao into the adjacent room. He had already lit the brazier early, making the room relatively warm.
Unfortunately, Gu Jiao performed a significant amount of blood transfusion, resulting in her hands and feet feeling icy cold and her body temperature dropping significantly.
Xiao Heng gently placed her on the bed, removed his snowy cloak, then removed her shoes and outerwear.
He pulled over a quilt to cover her as she was shivering uncontrollably from the cold.
Xiao Heng covered her with two more quilts, but it was still not enough.
Xiao Heng's expression darkened.
Why do you put yourself at risk for someone?
Have you ever thought about your own life?
Her disposition was like this. When she was shown even a fraction of kindness, she would reciprocate it with an overwhelming measure of warmth and goodwill.
But Xiao Heng wasn’t like that.
During his childhood, there were numerous individuals who treated him kindly, a gesture he grew accustomed to, subsequently taking for granted without exhibiting a strong sense of gratitude or a willingness to repay their kindness.
Did she never receive kindness in her childhood?
Was that why she repaid kindness so generously?
Xiao Heng's chest suddenly ached.
He removed his cold outerwear, lay down, and hugged her chilly body.
He held her tightly, lightly kissing her cold forehead.
His body was warm, and soon, Gu Jiao stopped shivering, lying quietly in his embrace.
Xiao Heng undid her hair tie, gently laying her soft, long hair on the pillow, not wanting to break a single strand.
The room was so quiet that only their even breathing remained.
Xiao Heng's back was soaked with sweat. The warmth was a bit too much for him but just right for Gu Jiao.
Gu Jiao nudged into his embrace, finding a comfortable position.
Xiao Heng was getting too warm, yet he couldn't bear to let her go.
He hadn't closed his eyes all night, and now, he felt a slight drowsiness. He closed his eyes, ready to sink into a deep sleep.
Suddenly, a restless hand reached out.
Since he was already holding her tightly, her hand had nowhere else to go. Initially resting on his waist, it gradually moved up to his chest.
Because of their embrace, his garment's hem lifted slightly, revealing an enticing glimpse of his abdominal muscles.
The hand stealthily crept along with two fingers, steadily making its way until it inadvertently slipped and seamlessly nestled inside.
Xiao Heng didn't move.
The hand became increasingly bold, proceeding to touch and gently squeeze, moving from caressing the chest muscles to pressing the abdominal muscles.
Xiao Heng narrowed his eyes as he watched that hand slide down all the way, "Are you awake?"
Gu Jiao's eyes remained closed, "I'm not."
Xiao Heng: "..."
