Chapter 12: Applying Medicine

After questioning Clovie, Chen Yuan roughly understood the whole story.

He figured that the unreliable Lord Heaven probably sold him out.

That guy even claimed it was because of his outstanding mission record.

Pure shamelessness!

Forget it…

He knew he had no one to blame but himself.

“Mm.”

After drinking the porridge, Clovie regained some strength and finally could speak normally.

When she felt hungry and weak, she did not want to talk, so she kept silent while Chen Yuan fed her.

Chen Yuan held a brand-new, flawless identity card.

It read Luo Wei, the name sounded normal in this world.

Chen Yuan asked, “Is there any other information?”

When he went to the other world before, he always knew his new status in detail so he could blend in better.

Sometimes he even arrived as a nationwide fugitive; without careful preparation he died the moment he appeared.

By rights, Lord Heaven should have done the job properly; he should not give only an ID card.

Still, this single card already solved the biggest problem in this world.

“Yes. I am a student. In two days I report to Jiang University of Science and Technology,” Clovie answered honestly.

“A student?! A freshman?!” Chen Yuan nodded and then exclaimed.

Clovie did not understand these matters.

She came to this world only to find Chen Yuan, and whether she reported or not meant nothing to her.

Chen Yuan pointed at the name on the card and said, “Clovie, from now on I must call you by this name. In this world everything depends on the ID.”

Clovie nodded obediently; she followed her teacher in all things.

Chen Yuan asked, “So, Luo Wei?”

“Mm.”

Chen Yuan laughed, “It sounds pretty nice.”

…Clovie’s cheeks flushed slightly.

She felt so happy that she could never grow tired of hearing that gentle voice call her name.

“Come, let me apply some more medicine,” Chen Yuan picked up the anti-bruise liniment from the desk again.

He already spread it on her last night, yet the bruises on such a perfect body looked shocking, especially on her calves.

At this, Clovie felt a little shy, but she still obediently exposed the injured areas.

Even in her own world there were topical medicines, so she understood.

Still, being touched by her teacher made her heart race uncontrollably.

Chen Yuan saw her shy expression and chuckled softly, “Why don’t you put it on yourself?”

After all, it was only her calves, arms, and face, not some private place.

Chen Yuan was not that conservative; he traveled through several worlds already.

Yet for a queen like Clovie, no one ever touched her body this way, nor even looked at it.

The Nix Kingdom stayed very conservative.

She immediately shook her head, “Teacher, please help me. I don’t know how.”

If it was her teacher, of course it was allowed.

Besides, she really did not know how to use the small bottle in his hand.

Having spoken, she willingly slipped her long legs out from under the quilt.

The girl’s snow-white legs met the morning light and glowed with gentle radiance.

True to her title of Snow Queen, her skin was as flawless and delicate as falling snow, soft and youthful.

The moment she stretched out, Chen Yuan again felt something wrong; why did it not feel this arousing last night?

In the end he steeled himself; he poured the liniment into his palm and spread it evenly over her calf.

The cool touch made her body shiver.

After finishing the calf he treated her arm; her forearm looked as smooth and pale as lotus root.

Chen Yuan never touched anything so delicate.

From her body he almost pictured Goddess Nuwa polishing clay figures day and night.

Lastly he moved to her face, switched to his mother’s aloe vera gel, and rubbed it on gently.

It felt like putting makeup on a Barbie doll.

Throughout the process Clovie held her breath and her heart raced.

Whether he treated her leg or her arm, she felt his utmost care, and after every spot he blew softly on it.

When he applied it to her face, their distance was so small that Clovie knew staring was rude, yet she could not look away.

Chen Yuan asked considerately, “At noon, shall I take you out for something tasty?”

“Yes. I listen to Teacher,” Clovie replied blankly.

Chen Yuan corrected her, “From now on, don’t call me Teacher. In this world just call me Chen Yuan, and I call you Luo Wei.”

“All right, Teacher…” Clovie agreed meekly, still staring at the Chen Yuan whose face was only centimeters away.

Chen Yuan fell silent.

After finishing, Chen Yuan blew on her again and smiled, “There, did all the pain fly away?”

Blown upon, Clovie closed one eye, then reacted, covered her mouth, and laughed, “Yes… It’s magic.”

As an excellent student, she refused to let her teacher’s joke fall flat.

Chen Yuan went on, “This afternoon I take you to buy a few new clothes, then when it’s time to register… For now, would you like to stay with me?” He felt uneasy about letting her live in the dormitory alone.

The main reason was that he saw how much she suffered and felt sorry for the girl, wanting to make it up to her.

“Okay. Eh? Live with you?” Clovie agreed at once, then froze when she heard the second half.

In her worldview, living together meant sharing one bed, eating together, cooking together, and even… having babies together.

She was royalty and lived alone from childhood; her only companions were the servants in the Royal Palace.

What she knew came from the standard fairy-tale endings she read: someone and someone lived happily ever after.

That was the kind of “living together” she imagined.

Though it was with her teacher, she always looked forward to it.

She never thought the day would come so soon.

Chen Yuan explained, “Mm, I don’t feel at ease if you stay in the dorm. I have an apartment off campus, and there is an extra room.”

“Ah? Oh… all right.” Clovie instantly deflated; most of the excitement she just felt vanished.

So they would not sleep in the same bed…

Chen Yuan pulled the quilt over her again, gently stroked her hair, and said, “All right, sleep a little more.”

She usually slept in places like that alley, so she probably did not rest well.

“Then, Teacher, you…”

Chen Yuan smiled, “I’m going out to buy you some daily necessities.” He fished out his cell phone from his pocket and showed it to her. “Look, for example this. Everyone needs one. Now sleep. If you need anything, call my parents; just address them as Auntie and Uncle.”

“Please don’t, Teacher…”

Hearing that Chen Yuan was about to leave, she sat up at once, and her emotions turned agitated.
