Chapter 46: Although He’s Blind, His Heart’s Clear

He spoke in an indifferent tone as if he was reciting the truth.
“Thank you, Young Master.”
Weiai took the painkillers from him and felt gleeful.
He kept bullying her previously. She finally found a chance to make things hard for him and to make him serve her. As she thought about this, she looked at the painkillers and smiled to herself while another idea came up in her head.
At the next moment, she spoke in a pitiful tone that was the opposite of the smile on her face. “Young Master, there is no water. I can’t take the medicine! The water is on the table.”
This time, he did not agree.
He lowered his head and fixed his gaze on Weiai. He was obviously blind. Yet, under such a gaze, Weiai could not help but feel nervous because it seemed like he was still aware of everything.
Suddenly, he regained his coldness and his voice sounded threatening. “Baby, do you know that you should not take things too far?”
Damn!
He realized that she was doing it on purpose?
Thinking about this possibility, Weiai turned pale, but she still used the same pitiful voice. “What I am saying is real. Without water, I cannot swallow the medicine. I hate taking medicine.”
As she spoke, Weiai thought that she had to prove herself to make him believe her.
Hence, she clenched and teeth and tried to get off the bed.
In reality, even though she was trying to make things hard for Shen Shaobai, it was true that she really needed water. Since young, she had never liked taking medicine. Without water, she would never take medicine, this was the indisputable truth!
“I will go get it myself.”
As Weiai spoke, she lifted the blankets and tried to get off the bed.
However, just when she started to move, the man’s slender hand landed firmly on the blanket. “Don’t move around, are you no longer in pain?”
“It is still painful, but there is no water.”
Weiai went along with his words.
She raised her head carefully and looked towards his delicate brows; they were in a frown as if he had many reservations.
However, he finally replied, “Wait here, don’t move around.”
If Weiai was smarter, she would have realized that he had already guessed her intentions.
After all, he was Shen Shaobai. He was a genius with a brilliant mind, he was someone with a god-like presence!
Hence, her tricks could only fool him for a short while and he reacted very quickly to them. As for why he did not expose her, it was because her weak and pitiful voice made him feel pity.
Hence, even though he could have ordered for the servants to serve her, he still went along with her wishes to please her.
Pouring water was a simple task. Even though he was blind, he was not handicapped. This was not hard for him!
He usually used the wheelchair because he was unwilling to use movement aids to help him around. After all, even though he was blind, he had a clear heart. He was not willing to put down his pride as self-respect was the last thing he could keep for himself.
Weiai smiled in satisfaction just like a cat who ate the canary. She stared as he walked slowly, as if the pain on her body was being reduced. She watched as he walked to the table for a second time and fumbled around for the flask and teacup.
From that angle, she could clearly observe his every movement.
The flask was filled with hot water.
Hence, when he was pouring water into the cup at a slanted angle, he spilled it on himself. The water was hot and he subconsciously flinched when the hot water came into contact with the back of his hand.
However, he very quickly stabilized himself and continued to pour water.
Suddenly, as Weiai watched what was happening, she felt a sense of uneasiness in her heart.
The uneasiness remained until Shen Shaobai came back and placed the cup in her hands.
“It is a little hot, don’t drink it immediately.”
His voice was cold and emotionless.
Weiai held the cup as her gaze landed on the back of his hand where he spilled water on previously. Expectedly, there was a red, swollen patch on his hand and it looked serious.
However, from the start to the end, he had no reaction.
She felt unnatural, what did it have to do with her even if he had scalded himself?
Don’t look at it, don’t look at it. Xia Weiai, don’t look at it!
Weiai tried to hypnotize herself as she swallowed down the painkillers with the cool water and drank the water absent-mindedly.
“Baby, you are pretty capable to convince Ah Yuan to help you leave this place, aren’t you?”
