Chapter 788 — Kang Jingming Injures Himself
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
"Cure what? Didn't that woman just say I'm pretty much better? Hurry up and think of a way to get me close to Guan Xin!" Kang Jingming was anxious. Thinking of how he'd seen Guan Xin together with that bitch Xiaofen earlier made him uneasy. He didn't know what their relationship was, or whether Xiaofen had told her about what had happened between them.
Still, Kang Jingming figured she probably hadn't said anything, because the matter was a bit humiliating for Xiaofen—surely she wouldn't air her own shame? But that girl seemed a little unhinged, didn't she? If she had blabbed, who could say?
So Kang Jingming wanted to settle things with Guan Xin as soon as possible. Once he had her, everything would be easy. Even if Guan Xin found out, the rice would already be cooked—it wouldn't matter.
"Young Master Ming, it's actually the same trick as before. You just need to suffer a little more..." Wang Shubin hesitated before speaking.
"Oh? You mean..." Kang Jingming's eyes lit up.
"Young Master Ming, just cut a gash on your hand and then go find Guan Xin to bandage it. Won't that do it?" Wang Shubin nodded and suggested.
"That's true enough. Come on, do it now!" Kang Jingming held out his hand. "Get to it!"
"This..." Wang Shubin didn't quite dare to make a move all at once. He'd have no problem cutting someone else, but cutting Kang Jingming—he didn't quite dare. Who knew how deep to go? What if he cut too painfully?
"What do you mean, 'this'? Hurry up!" Kang Jingming was getting impatient.
He had come to Songshan City this time bearing a weighty responsibility, and it was also the first time he had ever carried out a task assigned by the family, so Kang Jingming had no intention of failing. He knew well enough that he was a wastrel, fit for nothing but this sort of work, and if he could not even manage this, he would truly have no standing left in the family.
"Little Zhang, you do it..." Wang Shubin still did not quite dare to make the cut himself.
Zhu Xiaozhang had more nerve than Wang Shubin. People called him Brother Arrogant, but his arrogance was directed at others, never at Kang Jingming.
"Hurry up, what are you thinking about?" Kang Jingming was getting impatient. "Over there—the IV bottle I just used, isn't there still a needle on it? Bring it here and cut me!"
"All right, Young Master Ming, then bear with it a moment!" Zhu Xiaozhang nodded, picked up the used IV needle from the table, steeled himself, and drew a small gash across Kang Jingming's arm.
"Sss..." Kang Jingming sucked in a sharp breath. It really did hurt, but since he had told Zhu Xiaozhang to do it, he could hardly blame the man.
"Is that enough?" After making the one cut, Zhu Xiaozhang did not quite dare to go on.
"If it gets the point across, that should do, right?" Kang Jingming was also hurting badly. "Let's go—hurry and find Guan Xin to bandage it!"
Kang Jingming could not be bothered about the IV still running into him; he simply yanked out the needle and dashed out of the ward.
It had to be said that Kang Jingming was occasionally rather lucky. Today it happened that Guan Xin was not off duty, and at that moment she was right there in the surgical nurses' duty room.
