Destined with You

If he hadn’t been away from Ming City, he would never have let Ye Qi pick up the little girl from school.

Looking at the child lying disheveled on the bed, her small face damp and eyes tearful, Beiming Han strode to the bedside and asked, “Where are you hurt?”

“My leg…” Gu Qingxin answered, tears pooled in her eyes, looking as pitiful as an abandoned puppy.

Beiming Han immediately picked her up, casting a disgruntled glare at Bai Jingqing, “What are you doing standing there? Go examine her now!”

“Um… Okay!” Bai Jingqing rushed over immediately. The doctor had already unwrapped Ye Qi’s bandaged shirt. Actually, the wound was not deep, albeit a bit long. The blood had already coagulated.

“How is it, does it need stitches?” Beiming Han asked with a frown.

“No need. The bleeding has stopped. Let’s disinfect it and apply medication first.” Bai Jingqing made his assessment, and immediately someone came to tend to Gu Qingxin’s wound.

Gu Qingxin trembled in pain, burying her head into Beiming Han’s chest. Her arms tightly embraced his waist. Soon, Beiming Han felt a chill spreading over his chest.

“Watch yourself! Don’t you see she’s in pain!” Beiming Han couldn’t help but scold the young nurse who was disinfecting the wound.

The nurse, startled by his anger, involuntarily exerted too much force, causing Gu Qingxin to cry out in pain and withdraw her leg abruptly.

“Out! Bai Jingqing, where did you find this incompetent? Is it time for your hospital to shut down?” Beiming Han was furious as he held the girl in his arms tightly.

Bai Jingqing,”…”

His big brother was overreacting! Since when has disinfection been painless?

He stepped in front of the nurse and ordered, “You better leave first.”

Seeing this, the nurse quickly dropped everything and fled.

“It’s not their fault. I’m just overly sensitive to pain.” Gu Qingxin raised her tear-stained face, speaking softly.

Beiming Han knew that, but it was hard for him not to be in distress seeing her in such discomfort.

Gently cupping her cold face, he commanded in a chilly voice. “You can do the treatment yourself and make sure not to cause her more pain.”

Bai Jingqing picked up instruments and skillfully bandaged Gu Qingxin’s leg wound. Then he treated scratches on her palm and arm.

“We need to give her a shot later… shall I do it myself?” Bai Jingqing turned to his big brother.

Beiming Han’s face darkened, his eyes flashing icy looks towards him. But even before he could speak, Gu Qingxin exclaimed, “A shot? Why do I need a shot? I do not want a shot!”

Seeing the rebellious little girl, it came to Beiming Han’s realization, this little one is afraid of needles?

“Miss Gu, your wound is caused by a metallic object. According to Ye Qi’s description, the object that caused the injury is rusty. Thus, we must administer a tetanus shot,” Bai Jingqing explained.

“Call for a nurse,” Beiming Han immediately ordered. This shot is a must. Therefore, he must not let her be.

The shot is supposed to be injected into the buttocks. How could he let another man do that?

This time, Bai Jingqing called for a senior nurse with vast experience to administer the shot to Gu Qingxin.

Beiming Han continued to hold the little girl, letting her lie across his lap. The nurse lifted her skirt, carefully lowered her underwear a little, and when the cotton swab touched Gu Qingxin’s skin, she grabbed Beiming Han’s hand tightly, eyes shut tightly…

“Miss, relax…” The nurse spoke softly, noticing her extreme tension.

Gu Qingxin hurriedly relaxed, but as soon as the nurse touched her, she tensed up again. She couldn’t help it, having been terribly scared of injections and medications since her childhood
