Thankfully, Iris stopped running and slowed down after Jin Liwei's shouted warning. Otherwise, he felt like his heart would stop if she tripped and hurt herself and their babies inside her. She returned to the bathroom soon after carrying a paper bag containing all his medicines. Then she took a medicated gel and started applying it all over his bruises.
Even though she was already extra careful in her application, he still had to stop himself from hissing in pain. His whole body was rigid, his expression like cold stone.
"Does it hurt?" she asked in a small, worried voice.
He could only grunt for now because if he opened his mouth, there was no guarantee that he wouldn't curse from the pain.
"Endure it for now, darling. I'll be as quick as I can. Then I'll help you get ready for bed, okay?"
