Chapter 1218: An affair
In Yuan Zhou's restaurant, the lights adjusted by the system were not dim at all. Instead, they were very bright.
Because of the brightness, Yuan Zhou could clearly see the worry on Yin ya's face.
Yin ya was standing very close to Yuan Zhou. Her upper body was leaning toward Yuan Zhou's direction and her head was slightly lowered while she looked at Yuan Zhou's fingers.
Her long, fair legs were crossed and leaned against the lower hem of the curved long table.
Yuan Zhou was originally standing upright, but ever since his hands were pulled by Yin ya, he felt that his legs were a little unsteady and could only lean against the table without leaving a trace.
From a distance, both of them were slightly inclined to each other with their heads very close to each other. Moreover, due to Yin ya's long hair, the end of her curly hair was only one finger away from Yuan Zhou.
The two of them held each other's hands, and the slimmer and more tender hand kept turning the other two hands, which were obviously one size larger.
"I'm asking you a question. Why didn't you apply medicine when you're so hot?" Yin ya's tone sounded both angry and strange.
Such a tone made Yuan Zhou's face turn red quickly. Even though Yuan Zhou tried his best to keep his face straight, he couldn 't.
It was not until Yin ya raised her head and gave Yuan Zhou a sidelong glance that Yuan Zhou finally reacted. He couldn't help pulling back his hand and said,""It's not hot,"
"If it's not scalding, what's wrong? It's Red and there are even bubbles. " Yin ya felt that Yuan Zhou's hand, which had originally intended to let go, directly clenched even tighter.
Then, Yuan Zhou's face turned red and he became speechless. But even so, his eyebrows were knitted and he appeared to be quite serious.
However, the abnormally rosy face betrayed Yuan Zhou's nervous mood. Otherwise, Yuan Zhou would still look quite calm.
"Don't put your hand down. I'll get the burn ointment. " Yin ya grabbed Yuan Zhou's hand for a while. When she found Yuan Zhou didn't resist, she said tentatively.
"Yes." Yuan Zhou nodded his head and answered softly.
Only then did Yin ya let go of her hand. Then, she took the small bag on her back to the partition and started to search for it.
Yuan Zhou, on the other hand, remained motionless in the position of being let go by Yin ya. He just stared at the hair whorl on the top of Yin ya's head and no one knew what he was thinking.
Yin ya said while looking for him,"I see you have quite a few small wounds on your arm. They must have been caused when you were cooking. You should pay more attention to them."
"Yes." Yuan Zhou answered.
"But you have a wound on your arm, while this one doesn't have a scar. It's just that the burn is quite serious." Yin ya took out a stick of green aloe vera cream and then raised her head to ask Yuan Zhou curiously.
"The hands will be specially prepared. Some ingredients need to be judged by a keen sense of touch." Yuan Zhou explained seriously and patiently.
"Then why didn't you treat your arm? look at all the burn marks and small wounds." Yin ya pulled over Yuan Zhou's arm and pointed at the many scars on it.
"Your arms don't need to touch the ingredients." Yuan Zhou said earnestly.
"I lost to you? then what's with your hand?" Yin ya pointed at Yuan Zhou's Red and slightly swollen fingertips and said angrily.
"I didn't see you handling it. What do you think we should do tomorrow?" Yin ya said straightforwardly without waiting for Yuan Zhou's answer.
"This isn't a burn." With his hand held by Yin ya, Yuan Zhou spoke more stiffly. When he saw Yin ya was about to speak again, he hurriedly continued,""The calluses were peeled off last night, and then rubbed after doing too much carpentry today."
It was rare for Yuan Zhou to say such a long sentence. After that, he couldn't help taking a deep breath and then looked at Yin ya.
"From friction?" Only then did Yin ya look at Yuan Zhou's fingertips carefully and saw traces of blood there.
"You said that you'd love your hand so much, but why didn't you apply the medicine properly?" Yin ya glared at Yuan Zhou.
"I was going to wipe it before I went to bed." Yuan Zhou said.
On hearing that, Yin ya lowered her head and her hand that was twisting the lid almost slipped. Her face twisted a little before she raised her head, looked at Yuan Zhou and asked with a smile,""Boss Yuan, do you think I'm being a busybody now?"
Yin ya swore that if Yuan Zhou dared to say yes, she would immediately beat him to death and then feed him to broth. In this way, no one would be able to eat. Humph!
"No, I didn 't," Yuan Zhou immediately shook his head and said alertly.
"It's good that you didn 't. " "Then I'll apply some medicine for you. Are you okay?" Yin ya nodded with a smile and said.
"It's okay, just do whatever you want. " Yuan Zhou said cleanly.
"Oh, by the way, what do you usually use to wipe your hands?" Yin ya asked while wiping.
"I made the ointment myself." Yuan Zhou said honestly.
"This is aloe vera cream, so you should be able to apply it, right?" While saying that, Yin ya squeezed out a transparent and slightly green paste and then touched Yuan Zhou's fingertips gently.
"Sure, I'll just apply the ointment I made at night." Yuan Zhou said.
Upon hearing that, Yin ya couldn't help pinching Yuan Zhou's fingertips. Yuan Zhou felt a sharp pain but didn't say anything. After all, his fingers had been in pain before he applied the medicine. Now, it was just a little more painful.
It couldn't be helped. It sounded like Yin ya was doing it for free.
After seeing Yuan Zhou's scalded hand, Yin ya specially went back home to get the aloe vera cream after finishing her meal as soon as possible, because this one was brought back from abroad and had a very good effect.
She was in such a hurry that she didn't even change her clothes and just rushed to the restaurant in her work clothes for the day, just to let Yuan Zhou apply the medicine quickly.
Fortunately, Yin ya had long been accustomed to Yuan Zhou's way of speaking and also knew that his words didn't mean what they said literally. She suppressed her mood and changed the topic, asking,""Why do you want to peel off the calluses?"
"Because your fingers need to test the temperature of the oil and handle the thorny ingredients, calluses will form over time. However, the calluses will affect the sensitivity of your fingers, so you need to peel them off." While watching Yin ya apply the medicine, Yuan Zhou said.
On hearing that, Yin ya found the skin of Yuan Zhou's fingers was so thin that the blue blood vessels could even be seen.
However, Yin ya clearly remembered that Yuan Zhou's hands didn't seem to be so thin in the past. Her heart slightly twitched, but she didn't show anything on her face. She just applied the medicine silently.
Yin ya grabbed Yuan Zhou's palm with one hand and picked up some slippery paste with her fingertips with the other hand to smear on Yuan Zhou's fingertips.
Yuan Zhou's hand was slightly cold but his palm was wide. Moreover, it didn't look rough because of his special maintenance, but the joints were distinct. Although Yin ya was holding Yuan Zhou's hand, in fact, Yuan Zhou's hand was much larger. Instead, it was as if Yuan Zhou had wrapped Yin ya's hand.
"Next time, don't do carpentry after you get rid of the cocoon. Do something else. It's not worth it if your fingers get thicker like this." Yin ya persuaded him patiently.
"I know." Yuan Zhou nodded his head.
"It's good that you know. Although this aloe vera cream is for burns, it's also very effective in healing wounds and doesn't leave scars." Yin ya spread the paste evenly on Yuan Zhou's fingers one by one.
"Yes." Yuan Zhou nodded his head and answered with a gentle look.
"Alright, I'll leave this one for you. It'll be better after you rub it tomorrow morning and night." Yin ya put down Yuan Zhou's hand and then pushed the aloe vera cream to his hand.
Yuan Zhou only felt the soft and warm little hands leave. For a moment, he didn't notice or know what Yin ya said and thus agreed subconsciously.
When Yuan Zhou came back to his senses, Yin ya was about to walk out of the door.
"Wait," Yuan Zhou hurriedly stopped him.
