One Night Surprise - Season 1 Episode 73

Before going up the stairs, Courtney asked the maids for some ointment and knocked on the door of the dressing room.

“Come in.”

Alexander had already changed his attire; the previously worn pajamas were bunched up and simply thrown to the floor.

“Is your leg fine? I’ve brought you some ointment,” Courtney stood at the door and said.

He nodded as a reply. “Thanks.”

“You’re welcome; It’s your ointment anyway. I’ll just leave it here for you to use. I’m going out now.”

“Alright.”

After putting down the ointment, she turned around and left the dressing room. However, upon taking a few steps, she suddenly remembered something, so she turned back and opened the door straight away.

“Remember to put the ointment—”

Before she could finish her words, her expression immediately froze the moment she saw the scene in front of her.

Alexander’s hand twitched as his belt fell from his hand, causing his whole pants to fall to the floor and revealing his pair of muscular legs.

Instantly, Courtney came back to her senses and covered her eyes while turning around. “Why are you taking off your pants?” she asked anxiously.

At the same time, Alexander looked embarrassed as his face sulked. “How else can I apply the medicine on my body? Besides, I should be the one asking you why you came in without knocking on the door.”

With a flushed face, Courtney refuted, “I came in to tell you how to use the ointment. Who knew you would…”

As Alexander noticed her frightened looks, he suddenly found the situation a little funny, so he simply grabbed a towel to cover his legs and sat down. “Is that so? Then I would like you to teach me how to use it.”

Even so, she was still facing him with her back. “Have you put on your pants yet?”

Alexander lowered his head and looked at the towel covering his thighs before answering her seriously, “I guess so.”

“What do you mean ‘I guess so’?” She then furrowed her brows and turned around carefully. The moment she saw him sitting on the couch with a white towel covering his legs, her face immediately turned red as she turned back instantly and growled, “How does that count as putting your pants on?”

“What did you see?”

“I saw nothing.” She quickly denied.

“Then it’s fine.” He put on a natural tone. “Hurry up. I have other matters to attend to later on. Aren’t you going to help me apply the ointment?”

“I… Do it yourself.”

At the moment, Courtney regretted coming back to the room.

I knew I shouldn’t have troubled myself. There are so many servants in the house, so why did I come up here myself? Am I not purposely looking for trouble?

“But it was the porridge you cooked that burned me.”

As soon as she heard his words, she suddenly exploded with rage, so she turned around angrily and ranted, “Hey! Why are you so unreasonable? Did I make porridge just to purposely burn you?”

“I didn’t say you did it on purpose.” Alexander gazed at her and scanned her looks with interest as he tried to test her limit. “Since you offered to help, you should do exactly that. I really don’t know how to use this ointment anyway.”

As Courtney’s face started to boil under his gaze, she hesitated for a while before walking over to him with the ointment.

Then, she bent over and lifted a corner of the towel on his lap, revealing a huge piece of burned skin. For some reason, her heart twitched when she saw his injury. This is quite a serious burn.

“Please pay attention. You need to rub the ointment on your palm to make it warm before applying it on the wound.” She sat and demonstrated to him by rubbing a small piece of paste in her palm. However, just as she was about to apply the ointment, she hesitated. “I think you should do it yourself.”

She backed off upon saying that, but Alexander suddenly grabbed her wrist. “You do it.”

“Why me? You can do it yourself.”

“It’s troublesome.”

Instantly, Courtney was speechless.

“You can just wash your hands afterward. You really are troublesome, ‘Young Master’.” When the words ‘Young Master’ and her mocking tone reached Alexander’s ears, his cold eyes trembled slightly.

Thinking about his privileged life, Courtney assumed that he probably had never applied medicine on himself before, so she braced herself and nodded after taking a glance at the ointment in her hands. “Then I’ll do it. Please let go of your hand first.”

After warming up her palm, she placed her hands on the skin of his thigh, sending waves of heat through his skin. Alexander lowered his eyes and saw her hair slipping down her shoulder, blocking her face.
