Chapter 313 - Secrets!

Meanwhile back in the state, Ye Nian sat in her room and Shi Yu was sitting in front of her. With him being shirtless, Ye Nian was applying some ointment over his wounds.

"Ouch! Ye Nian! Be careful!" He shouted when he felt pain over his wounds.

But Ye Nian didn't react at this point and applied more cream over the wounds.

There was a deep cut and along with it, there were some marks on his whole back.

His white skin looked bad, due to the red cuts and spots and some of the marks were so old that they have turned blue because of the infection

"Now you feel pain but what about if I never applied the cream over this? won't that make you feel even more pain?!" Ye Nian bluntly asked, she knew that he is feeling many things but because of his stubborn nature and his attitude, he is hiding everything from everyone.

"Who said that? I never wished to tell anyone about these marks. But unfortunately, you saw them on that day." Shi Yu made an angry look.

"At least I saw and that is why these wounds can get some medicine from me. otherwise, they might pain you even more." 

"No, they won't. Just do whatever you are doing Ye Nian. I have some other works as well." He was being rude to her once again but she decided to complete it.

Shi Yu had no idea how bad and rude he sounded but he doesn't like to show his pain to anyone like that. She is an exception to everything but he can't risk his whole plan due to some feelings only.

Applying the bandage on his hands properly, she handed over his shirt back to him and headed her face back into the bathroom.

For a very long time he has been coming to her and she applies for medicine over his wounds. Although he was reluctant many times, she always insisted.

Otherwise, she might tell others about his marks and for him, it was better to have her only know about them.

Shi Yu looked at Ye Nian's sullen face and couldn't help but laugh.

"I'm sorry. I know... I have been rude but Ye Nian, understand that I can't take care of these."

"But why do you even have those marks?! If you fight with someone then you should stop fighting with them. Can't you do that?" Ye Nian was irritated as well. For so long, she has been urged to stop asking questions and form where these marks come from. 

But she has nothing in her hands. It is, next to impossible for her now.

"No, I can't. See, I told you that it is very complicated and I can't afford to tell you at this point." Shi Yu once again answered back which made Ye Nian angry as always.

"You always say that. Anyways, I'm no one to ask you even because you will only tell either a lie or half a truth." Saying this, Ye Nian went to the bathroom, closing the door behind her with a thud.

'She is stubborn but how can I explain to her that this is not in my hands. I have to get them so that I can be more strong and take my revenge for what they did to my mom.' Only if he could go and tell her bluntly.

Meanwhile, Ye Nian locked the mirror in front of her and couldn't help but talk to herself.

"Why is he still like this? How shall? i say to him that this hurts me like this?

I don't know what this is but.. why is he using some big secrets from everyone? Why can't he come clean and clear all misunderstandings?" 

Her teary eyes were almost on the verge of falling. She knew that she is very much young for everything like this. But it was getting out of her hands. She wants to know more about everything but what she doesn't know is, how?

Because he is bent on not telling her anything and she can't do anything related to this.

Wiping her tears away, Ye Nian look back into the mirror and then, opening the door of the bathroom to find him still in her room

A frown appeared on her face, when she looked at his worried face, as he was sitting on the sofa set and stood when he saw her coming out of the bathroom.

"You always leave after I'm done helping you but you are still in my room. what happened?" 

"I know you are angry today and I decided to stay. But Ye Nian, you said that you will help me without asking me anything." Shi Yu brought this point once again.

The very first thing he asked her was to keep her questions to herself and help him without asking him any questions.

"I know that. But.. it is.. not easy to keep my mind off this. Why can't you simply tell me and others everything? Won't it be much easier for us to solve it"

"I will… very soon.. but till that time I have to keep it in my own mind." Shi Yu tried to pursue her but he knew one thing and that is, it will be very much difficult to convince her in any manner.

"But you can't keep it in your mind and torture yourself. You will have to keep yourself safe as well. These marks.. are already so deep. Do you wish to make them deeper?"

Seeing her in this eager state, he came closest to her and held her shoulders tightly.

"Ye Nian.. you are still.. very young for everything. You need to be a little more mature to know everything." 

"Everyone says this but the truth is I'm already old enough to know things. I know that you are also holding something about me.

What is that? What do you know about me that you don't wish to tell me!?"

...
