Chapter 639: 307 The Truth Revealed (two more parts) Chapter 639: 307 The Truth Revealed (two more parts) The Emperor’s complexion changed when he saw Gu Jiao brandishing the scissors with an intent to sharpen them, “I don’t want to!” he exclaimed.
But he didn’t have a choice.
With a crisp snip, the Emperor’s trousers were cut and the blood-soaked cloth piece was ripped off from his wound by Gu Jiao.
The Emperor felt a chill between his legs and endless embarrassment welled up from the depths of his heart.
This embarrassment even overshadowed the pain of the wound, making him utterly frustrated.
The Emperor had lost too much blood and was incredibly weak. He couldn’t resist. He bit his lips tightly, every single hair on his body resisting without saying a word!
Gu Jiao: I don’t see, I don’t see!
Emperor clenched his teeth, “You…”
Gu Jiao then put down the scissors, changed into a pair of clean gloves, and pulled out an IV drip and a venipuncture needle from the first-aid kit.
The moment the Emperor saw the gleaming needle, fear of getting injections overpowered him, spreading from his heart to every inch of his body. He panicked, “I do not want to get a shot!”
You need a shot to get better.
Gu Jiao gripped his hand and inserted the needle into the back of his hand without clotting the vessel.
Sure enough, she was getting more skilled.
The Emperor saw the chilling object lodged in the back of his hand. The sight frightened him so much that he began to tremble, even getting cut with a knife wasn’t this scary.
Gu Jiao kept a stern face, “Don’t move, or I’ll give you a second shot if it leaks!”
I am serious, I am ruthless!
The Emperor managed to suppress the urge to struggle, turned his face away sulkily, refusing to look at the needle in his hand.
Before, Gu Jiao only gave the Emperor intramuscular injections. This was the first time she was doing intravenous drip. To prevent the needle from slipping because of his movements, Gu Jiao used a small wooden board that was only used when administering shots to Little Pure.
Gu Jiao fastened the wooden board under the Emperor’s hand and secured it with a bandage.
Then Gu Jiao took out a razor.
The Emperor’s face changed again, “Do you still have to shave me?!”
Gu Jiao replied, “Only a little bit.”
The Emperor’s face flushed, “Don’t touch my Immortal Crane Feathers!”
Gu Jiao said solemnly, “It’s leg hair!”
The lower section of his shin had also suffered some superficial injuries. The wound was quite deep and required stitching.
Of course, the larger wound was on his upper thigh, but that didn’t need any hair removal.
Even so, shaving his leg hair was still not good enough. His leg was full of wounds from the hidden weapon, with over ten injuries of varying sizes. Most were not deep and more than half didn’t need stitches, but they all needed disinfection and medication.
The Emperor was forced into a variety of humiliating positions to facilitate Gu Jiao in cleaning the wounds, disinfecting them, local anesthesia, stitching, and applying medicine.
The light was too dim, Gu Jiao couldn’t see clearly and she quietly said, “Spread your legs a bit.”
He couldn’t face anyone!
Oh, it was too embarrassing!
After Gu Jiao finished the surgery, the Emperor had already fainted. She didn’t know if it was because of excessive blood loss or from being mortified.
Gu Jiao tidied up the room and then walked out carrying the medical box.
Seeing Gu Jiao come out, Xiao Liulang walked up, stepped up onto the porch, and took the small medical box from her hand. “Mother said a patient has come home.”
Xiao Liulang had already been waiting in the courtyard for a while. He had just returned from a trip to Lin Chengye’s house and saw bloodstains on the ground and the Yao family pacing anxiously in the courtyard.
After asking, he found that Gu Jiao had brought back a patient who seemed to be seriously injured. She had gone in for half of the hour.
Xiao Liulang told the Yao family to rest and he waited outside for Gu Jiao.
Xiao Liulang called the Yao family, mother, because Gu Jiao, his wife, was their biological daughter. Although she had some emotional issues and didn’t call them initially, Xiao Liulang, as a son-in-law, knew he should not make the Yao family feel like outsiders.
Gu Jiao had long since accepted the Yao family in her heart. Therefore, she didn’t mind it when Xiao Liulang called them mother. However, she was too shy to say it herself.
Calling them that seemed to seal the connection that could never be cut between them.
She needed more time.
To completely walk out of the shadow of her previous life.
Gu Jiao realized that Xiao Liulang was curious about why they didn’t send the patient to the Medical Hall, rather directly brought him home, and even put him in the Granny’s room.
After all, it was the Empress’s room, ordinary people could not live there.
Turning around, Gu Jiao gently pushed open the room door. A pair of expressive eyes looked at him blinking.
Xiao Liulang entered the room and saw the face of the other person clearly in the light of the oil lamp.
“Your Majesty?” He was shocked, “Was he attacked?”
No wonder they didn’t send the person to the Medical Hall. Sending him there under these circumstances would indeed be dangerous.
The Emperor had fallen asleep, his injuries had been handled and yet his pale face still bore witness to the intense danger he had experienced.
