Long Fei had thought that Su Ruan would run away and scream the moment she saw him. It was unexpected that she would stay around and even dare enough to touch him.
Other than his mother, it was the first time that another woman had touched him like that.
Initially, Long Fei had thought that her touch was quite comfortable. However, after a while, he started to feel a little itch. It gave him the urge to push her away but yet, he wanted her to continue touching him.
A heat spread all over his body, making him feel a little feverish.
Long Fei was embarrassed by this feeling. However, he realized that the pain in his body gradually disappeared with Su Ruan close to him.
Just as he had thought, being around Su Ruan would make him feel more at ease. Other than the lake water, Su Ruan was the only one that could make him feel better.
Long Fei continued to watch Su Ruan from the corner of his eyes. A low chuckle escaped him as he watched Su Ruan cup her hand on his injury, wanting to stop his bleeding.
However, both of them did not expect that the moment she did that, his bleeding would gradually stop.
The two of them looked at each other in surprise. None of them had expected that such thin would happen.
Long Fei huffed. He knew very well that the bullet that the old man had used was a little special.
His scale was thick and it would be hard to injure him. However, that old man managed to do just that. Because of the bullet, it would take a while for the injury to heal.
Therefore, he was surprised to see how it had slowly healed with Su Ruan's touch.
Even submerging under the lake water could not work this quickly.
His thought went back to the words that his father had once told him when he was a little boy and Long Fei began to look at Su Ruan with a serious look on his face.
This was the reason his grandfather had always reminded him that he could not be with another person other than Su Ruan. This was the reason his grandfather was too anxious for him to find her.
A thought came to his mind.
Perhaps, she would be able to help him.
Long Fei wondered if he should make this gamble.
Seeing that Su Ruan was still looking at him with a dazed look on her face, Long Fei stretched his claw to his injury. Using his sharp claw, he began to dig into the injury.
The blood that had stopped a while ago began to drip on the ground again and this time, the wound was torn wider.
Long Fei let out a low groan as the pain hit him. However, he could only bore with the pain and keep on going. The only thing that he wanted to do was to remove the bullet from his body.
He did not know whether Long Yu Heng knew what was going on with him and could not wait until Long Yu Heng found out his whereabouts.
"What are you doing?" Su Ruan grew anxious as she watched the blood gushing out of the dragon's body. She stretched her arm, wanting to stop him.
At this time, the fear she had for the creature had long gone.
However, before she could touch him, Long Fei shrunk back and hissed at her.
Her heartbeat accelerated and Su Ruan did not dare to get close to him. Her eyes continued to watch his action with worry.
Everything was fine a few seconds ago. Why would this creature suddenly turn crazy?
Su Ruan looked at him anxiously but she did not know what she could do to stop him.
Just then, there was a soft ding on the ground.
Su Ruan followed the direction of the sound and saw a bullet. She inhaled a deep breath and her bottom hit the ground. Her legs were too weak to stand up.
It turned out that he wanted to dig out the bullet.
But why does he have to be cruel to himself?
Digging out the bullet with his own sharp claws... Su Ruan could not imagine just how painful it must be.
She stretched her shaky hands, wanting to take a look at it. However, the dragon had stopped her movement with his claw.
She raised both her hands up again, wondering what was this dragon wanted to do.
Her breath stuck in her throat as she watched the creature moving his head closer to her. Just a while ago, Su Ruan had convinced herself that this dragon would not make any move to hurt her. But after seeing how he had hurt himself to dig out that bullet, Su Ruan was not too sure.
"Relax. I won't do anything that you did not like," Su Ruan tried to convince him. "I won't touch the bullet if you won't let me, alright?"
Long Fei raised his head and noticed the fear in her eyes. He let out a huff and nudged her hand with his head.
Su Ruan continued to watch his action with a puzzled look on her face. Her mind was blank and she could not understand what he wanted her to do.
Seeing that the girl continued to stare back at him in a daze, Long Fei continued to nudge her hand again.
Didn't he just stop his bleeding and helped him heal a moment ago? Why wouldn't she do the same this time?
Long Fei stared at her anxiously, hoping that she would quickly heal his injury.
However, Su Ruan was too scared and had thought that the dragon was acting aggressively and could not understand what he wanted her to do.
Frustrated that she could not understand his words, Long Fei opened his mouth to complain but had accidentally bit at one of her fingers. A tiny drop of her blood touch his tongue and a strange sensation spread all over his body and the pain on his body gradually disappeared.
Long Fei shrunk back, wondering what was this strange feeling.
He looked at the injury on his body and watched as it slowly healed. The energy in his body had strangely returned.
A light flashed in his eyes as he tried to understand what was going on.
He did not notice that Su Ruan was staring back at him.
