Fu Wenwen was taken aback, looking at Lin Feng standing under the tree, wondering how long he had been waiting for her.
"Why are you here? Aren't you staying home to accompany Lin An?" Fu Wenwen rushed forward with a pleasant surprise. Lin Feng smiled faintly, looking at Fu Wenwen, his eyes holding a gaze she couldn't resist.
"I wanted to pick you up." Lin Feng smiled slightly, looking at Fu Wenwen, and took the things from her arms. "Have you finished all your classes?"
Fu Wenwen nodded and replied, "Starting tomorrow, Wang Qing will take over my classes."
As soon as Fu Wenwen finished speaking, she felt her hand being grasped by a large one. She looked up at Lin Feng and saw him looking straight ahead, as if he hadn't done anything.
Fu Wenwen felt Lin Feng's gaze drifting towards her from time to time, his hands becoming a little damp from nervousness.
She was diligently answering his questions, while he was contemplating how to hold her hand?
Sensing his heartbeat, Fu Wenwen's heart also began to race uncontrollably.
Under the moonlight, the two walked through the fields, as if the entire world had shrunk to just them, with only each other in existence.
At this moment, even their heartbeats seemed to synchronize. Lin Feng swallowed nervously, mustered his courage, and suddenly turned his head. Fu Wenwen was startled and missed a step.
"Wenwen!" Lin Feng shouted anxiously.
He wanted to pull Fu Wenwen back, but the sweat on his palms made him unable to hold on. Lin Feng quickly pulled Fu Wenwen into his arms, flipping her upwards in mid-air, preparing to use his own body as a cushion.
Fu Wenwen instantly activated her wood elemental ability, and thick wild grass immediately grew beneath Lin Feng, providing a cushion so he wouldn't get hurt.
As soon as she landed, Fu Wenwen quickly got up from Lin Feng and looked at him with concern. "How are you? Are you okay?"
"Oof." Lin Feng's waist was a little twisted, and he already had an old injury there, causing Lin Feng to stumble and fall back down.
"Did you hurt your waist?" Fu Wenwen looked at Lin Feng, worried.
Lin Feng shook his head. "I'm fine! Don't worry."
"Even now, you're still being stubborn. Let me help you up!" Fu Wenwen glared at him, helped him up, and said with frustration, "I finally had a chance for us to spend time together..."
Hearing that Lin Feng was still thinking of her at this moment, Fu Wenwen felt helpless, amused and annoyed, and pinched his waist. Lin Feng stiffened. "If you pinch me again, I'll go wild."
"..." Fu Wenwen raised an eyebrow at Lin Feng. Lin Feng said seriously, "Your hands have electricity!"
"Your hands have electricity!" Fu Wenwen playfully glared at Lin Feng.
Fu Wenwen had just used her elemental ability to examine Lin Feng's body and found it riddled with injuries. What might have been a simple sprain for someone else was a trigger for his old wounds.
He was still enduring the pain and deliberately teasing her to distract her, even though he was already sweating from the pain.
Lin Feng wanted to say something more to tease Fu Wenwen, but Fu Wenwen's expression darkened. After helping him back home, she tossed Lin Feng onto the small bed.
Lin Feng watched her huffing and puffing back away, unsure why she was suddenly so angry, and regretted teasing her to the point of upsetting her.
"Take off your shirt, get on the bed, and lie prone!" After a while, Fu Wenwen returned, holding something unknown in her hand. As soon as she entered, she commanded Lin Feng.
"What is this?" Lin Feng was surprised that Fu Wenwen had returned, curiously looking at the green bottle in her hand, but he complied obediently.
"My specially made ointment!" Fu Wenwen was a little angry but didn't know why. The anger inexplicably disappeared when she saw the scars on Lin Feng's body.
Lin Feng's heart softened. He lay down on the small bed and turned his head to watch Fu Wenwen pour out the ointment and apply a little to his waist.
Her soft little hands caressed his waist and back, gently spreading the ointment and then massaging the injured area.
Lin Feng felt as if he were in a state of icy fire. On one hand, Fu Wenwen's hands were constantly igniting a fire on him, while on the other, the ointment she applied made him sweat coldly from the pain.
He didn't know the ingredients of the medicine, but Lin Feng only knew that it had brought out his hidden injuries. A surge of heat kept probing his old wounds, forcing him to grit his teeth to suppress any cries of pain.
Fu Wenwen rubbed the ointment vigorously, and when she felt it wasn't enough, she dug out more and continued to rub it on Lin Feng.
"Wenwen... what is this... ointment...? Hiss..." Lin Feng trembled with pain, trying to maintain his composure as if nothing was wrong, but he failed.
"It's a secret!" Fu Wenwen hummed softly. This was the essence of the herbs she had just collected with her elemental ability, combined with her wood elemental ability which also had healing properties. Lin Feng's pain proved that her ointment was working, repairing the damage in his body.
The more it hurt, the better the effect. Once she finished rubbing the medicine in, he would know how effective the ointment was the next day!
"I think I've had enough rubbing. What do you think..." Lin Feng, covered in a cold sweat, looked at Fu Wenwen, feeling as if her hands were now like a scraper, slicing at his flesh again and again.
"What do I think? I think it's not enough." Fu Wenwen smiled slightly. "Endure the pain a little longer. Once this pain passes, you'll know how good its medicinal effect is! It's repairing your old injuries."
"You know I have injuries?" Lin Feng paused and looked back at Fu Wenwen.
"A normal sprain, and you wouldn't even be able to walk? Looking at the scars, big and small, long and short, on your body, I'd have to be blind not to see them." Fu Wenwen poked Lin Feng. Lin Feng gasped in pain but also heard the concern in Fu Wenwen's voice.
"They all have families to worry about. I'm alone..." Lin Feng looked at Fu Wenwen, trying to explain.
"So you rush forward recklessly, giving all the chances of survival to others?" Fu Wenwen's expression turned cold. Lin Feng froze and guiltily lowered his head.
That was indeed what he had thought.
Since no one cared about him anyway, it was better to leave the opportunities to his comrades...
"Hmm?" Fu Wenwen's body radiated cold air. She was angry at his self-neglect, but her heart felt a pang of sourness.
"I was wrong. I'll never do this again," Lin Feng quickly said. He truly knew he was wrong. "I have you and Lin An now. I won't do this anymore. Don't be angry."
"If you dare do this again, I'll leave you with Lin An!" Fu Wenwen said angrily. Lin Feng panicked. "You might as well just take my life."
"Hmph! If you don't care about your own life, why would I want it!" Fu Wenwen stopped rubbing, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and began to tidy up.
