I knew this was the ointment he personally prepared. Contrary to his tough attitude just now, his actions of applying the medicine to me were very gentle, which reminded me of our life in Cloud Valley. When I was injured from practicing martial arts, he applied the medicine for me.
The ointment applied to my face was cool and refreshing, and the burning pain immediately disappeared.
"Don't worry, the swelling will go down soon," he said as he finished applying the medicine. He held my face in his hands again, examining it closely while comforting me.
His touch made my heart tremble slightly. I turned my head away in a bit of panic and escaped from his warm palm. "You only care because you're afraid my face will be ruined," I said.
