"Then my parents will be fine, right?"

Mingxiu secretly regretted that she would not have saved Xie Zhan if she had known better. She had been busy for a long time and almost lost half of her life. Not only did she not get any benefits, but she also put her family in danger!

This transaction is really a loss!

Xie Zhan really wanted to make a guarantee, but no one could tell for sure until something happened.

Even if he was full of confidence that he could withstand the opponent's overt and covert attacks, didn't he still leave in embarrassment later?

Falling into this situation.

Now he couldn't guarantee 100% whether Ming's father and mother could be saved, he could only...

"I'll do my best."

Mingxiu frowned. She knew that Xie Zhan's pride could make him so unsure. It was enough to show how powerful the other party was and how determined to kill him!

And if their family took in Xie Zhan, would they really not get themselves into trouble?

She looked at Xie Zhan inquiringly, "Who are you?"

Xie Zhan frowned, "I thought we had..."

Before he finished speaking, Mingxiu suddenly interrupted, "Don't talk about tacit understanding with me. I can save you and take you in without asking where you came from, even if you leave without saying goodbye."

It doesn't matter, the only thing is that your existence cannot threaten the safety of my family, I thought this was our tacit understanding!"

She stared at Xie Zhan with burning eyes, "But what now? You didn't do it! I don't need to ask about your identity now, as long as you can keep my parents safe, but can you guarantee it?!"

Can it?

If he could, he wouldn't have hesitated just now.

Xie Zhan looked ashamed, "I promise to protect the safety of your parents. Even if something happens to me, I won't let anything happen to you. How about that?"

If it comes to a last resort, he can only trade himself for the safety of Mingxiu's family, but...

Xie Zhan lowered his eyes to hide the depth in his eyes. He would not fall again where he had fallen before!

"If you can guarantee it, I will be fine with you."

Xie Zhan left. Although the two did not break up on bad terms, the harmony they had before was no longer there.

Even though Mingxiu felt a little uncomfortable, she didn't say any comforting words.

Just like what she said, she had nothing to do with Xie Zhan. Even if she did, it was still a kindness. She could even sacrifice her life to save Xie Zhan because of her little hope for him, but this definitely did not include sacrificing the safety of her parents.

Ming's father and mother were her only parents in her two lifetimes, and they cared deeply about her. It was already unfilial for her to ignore herself for Xie Zhan, and she didn't want to make her guilty even worse.

Mindful of Mingxiu's injury, Ming's father and mother didn't notice anything strange about them when they went to town. They just thought they were in low spirits because they didn't have a good rest.

Xie Zhan and Ming's father went to Mingji to clean up first, while Ming's mother took Mingxiu straight to the hospital.

The old doctor looked at Mingxiu's injury and showed appreciation, "This treatment is wrong. Just clean it with liquid and bandage it. The weather has been dry recently. Don't let it get infected by dust. It will be healed in half a month."

It seemed that nothing serious happened. Ming's mother breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Will there be any scars?"

After all, Mingxiu is still an unmarried little girl. If she leaves scars, it will be bad for the future.

"As long as you pay attention to what you eat, use less salt and spicy food, be more clean, and change your dressing every day, there will be no scars."

Ming's mother was then satisfied, nodded gratefully to the doctor, took the medicine, paid the money, and left with Mingxiu.

"Don't work these days, and be sure not to get water on the wound." After a pause, Ming's mother added, "Wait until the scabs form before taking a shower."

Mingxiu frowned, "How can that be done?!"

Although the weather is not too hot now, you will inevitably sweat a little during the hottest period at noon, and it will take at least seven days for the wound to completely scab.

It was already unbearable for her to go without a bath for three days, let alone seven days?

"Be obedient! Don't leave any scars." Ming's mother glared at Mingxiu angrily. Although she and Ming's father also liked to be clean, they were not as demanding as Mingxiu.

Isn't it okay that I couldn't take a shower even once a month?

After Mingxiu woke up, she had to boil water once every two days. Ming's mother didn't mind the trouble of abandoning the good-for-nothing guy, but she was worried about her injury!

When it comes to Mingxiu's safety, Ming's mother will not make any compromise.

"Mom! I just need to be careful not to let water get on the wound. Besides, you don't need to get water when cleaning the wound and changing dressings every day. What does it matter if you take a bath?"

"Don't talk nonsense with me here. If it doesn't work, it won't work!" Ming's mother looked at her firmly, "There is no need to discuss this matter!"

After that, no matter how much Mingxiu protested, he went straight to the store.

Although there were no customers in the shop yet, Mingxiu couldn't pester her mother about taking a bath, so she could only go to the back room to catch up on her sleep at Ming's mother's urging.

When she went to rest, she was still thinking about it. It didn't matter if she didn't say it now. When the water was boiled at home tomorrow, she could talk to Ming's mother and act coquettishly. She didn't believe she didn't agree.

Although she didn't feel very sleepy, Mingxiu still slept until the afternoon.

The noise in the store didn't stop her from sleeping well.

I touched my stomach and felt a little hungry.

Without bothering anyone, Mingxiu went to the kitchen to find food by herself.

It happened that Xie Zhan was also helping to serve the dishes at this time, and when he saw Mingxiu, he handed over the work to Ziming.

"Follow me."

Mingxiu was startled, not sure what Xie Zhan was going to do, but she still obeyed and followed.

"This is the wound medicine that Ye Ziming brought with him. I saw it is better than the one you went to the hospital to get. I will put it on when I change the dressing tomorrow. It is guaranteed not to leave any scars."

Xie Zhan knew these taboos about women. Although he thought it was okay to leave scars, he couldn't guarantee whether Mingxiu's future husband would mind.

Mingxiu took the medicine in a daze, and she was a little confused. After last night's quarrel, which was not a quarrel, she felt a little uncomfortable when she saw Xie Zhan. How could he be so at ease?

Isn't this medicine poisonous?

At this time, Xie Zhan was immersed in the discomfort that Mingxiu might marry someone else in the future, and was unaware of Mingxiu's thoughts. Otherwise, he might have added some ingredients to her medicine.

What a villain.
