Jiang Qi sat on the edge of the bed while Shen Yi carefully tended to his wound. It was not too deep, at least not enough to need a doctor, or so Jiang Qi had insisted. Because of that, Shen Yi had ended up being the one to clean and dress it. His movements were steady though his eyes betrayed worry. Jiang Qi sat still, letting him work in silence.
When Shen Yi was finally done, he closed the first aid box, returned it neatly into the drawer, and came back to sit beside Jiang Qi. For a moment, he was quiet, his gaze lingering on Jiang Qi's shoulder before he finally asked, "How did this happen?"
Jiang Qi exhaled deeply, leaning slightly back on his hands. "We were attacked on the way back," he said in a low voice. "We managed to escape, but Yao Zhen got shot while saving Xu Bo."
