Chapter 2005 Little Tricks
For the next half month, Francesca experimented with various treatments on Danrique, such as acupuncture, applying poultices, and feeding him her self-created medicine.
Although her wound-dressing was messy and rough, and she hurt him each time she applied the medication, he gritted his teeth and did not say a word.
There were even two occasions when he passed out from the pain.
She was so frightened that she scrambled to perform acupuncture on him to wake him up. Despite turning pale from the pain and sweating profusely, he still said to her gratefully, “You saved me again. Thank you!”
“You’re most welcome…”
Francesca was wondering how to conjure up an excuse to explain the situation, but he did not think much about it at all and even thanked her.
She instantly breathed a sigh of relief and continued to torment him without getting distracted.
He was truly obedient and took whatever medicine I gave him. No matter how bitter they were, he didn’t even frown. After each dose, he would thank me with a very pleasant voice. He was the perfect lab rat!
To let him stay longer, Francesca even stole her master’s clothes for him to wear and brought him delicious food from her master…
All she wanted was for him to remain there so that she could keep using him as a lab rat.
After all, I still have many medical questions that I haven’t turned into practice. For example, if a person were stabbed forty-nine times, but every one of them avoided any vital organs, would that person die? There’s also my new research on cosmetology. After soaking for ninety-one days, would a woman become shapely? Umm, although it’s a bit cruel to use him for this experiment, what choice do I have? He’s my only lab rat…
At that time, the fourteen-year-old Francesca’s head was full of little tricks.
However, in the eyes of Danrique, they were all filled with warmth and care, for he never had such close contact with a female, and no one had ever taken care of him and saved him with such sincerity except Isabella.
Coupled with the first awakening of love among youths, Danrique began to develop a different kind of feeling for Francesca.
Of course, the budding period of his love was a little late.
On the other hand, although Francesca was innocent and ignorant, it was also her first time having such intimate contact with the opposite sex. On top of that, she found her lab rat extremely good-looking, so, she also liked to interact with him.
Previously, due to memory loss, Francesca had forgotten these details, but after the surgery, she remembered everything.
She suddenly felt that she seemed a little cruel, as she completely took Danrique as a test product, materializing the curiosity and excitement she had about medicine for the first time onto him regardless of whether he was in pain or not.
Of course, in line with the mission of saving lives and helping the wounded, she also treated him with good intentions. Otherwise, he would not have recovered so quickly.
It’s just that the process was a little rough, that’s all.
The innocent Danrique, on the other hand, regarded her as the pure and unsullied love of his life, remembering everything she had said. He could not forget her throughout those seven years and kept sending people to look for her painstakingly.
He even kept bringing up the name “Cece”!
Probably, when he sent someone to look for her during the past seven years, he also told his subordinates that “Cece” was his first love and the most important girl in his life.
However, he has no idea that Cece is actually a little brown dog I raised with half of its ear missing…
The thought of it made Francesca burst into a laughter fit, which then pulled the wound.
Danrique woke up at once. He looked up at Francesca, stunned at first, before approaching and patting her chest. “Are you all right? I’ll call the doctor.”
Just as he was about to call someone, she quickly stopped him. “I’m fine.”
