Love Healing Manual

Chapter 112 Bubble
Take a deep breath, adjust your mindset, and get rid of all the messy thoughts in your head. What Lin Ze needs to pursue now is inner peace.

In those few quiet seconds...

He thought of many things, and scenes of his past interactions with his senior classmate flashed through his mind.

From the first time I met Kitagawa Ayane, to gradually getting to know and understand her physical condition, and to today.

Perhaps the senior student felt the same way he did, sensing an invisible but solemn sense of destiny that bound the two of them together. Despite their uncertainty about the future, they could only move forward without hesitation.

To uncover the most fundamental secrets of this illness, much must be discarded.

It must have been shocking to outsiders, and difficult for the two of them to accept.

There was no other way to go.

The two can only understand and trust each other, discard the shame associated with their gender and other uncontrollable distractions, and adjust their mindset. They don't need to consider whether any behavior can be classified as normal, because they are patients.

Only healthy people can bask in the sunlight without restraint and pursue what they want. For a person's entire life, illness is like a thorn stuck in their heart.

The heart pumps blood, grinding the hard barbs with its soft muscle tissue, but the blood cannot soften them.

Lin Ze knew very well that he had to remove this thorn.

He is willing to pay any price for this.

Even now, disregarding Kitagawa's status as a young girl in the prime of her life, he forces her to unconditionally cooperate with him in carrying out his so-called mission.

"Crash, lala, lala -"

The rising steam filled the entire bathroom, making the narrow space misty and dreamlike.

Water droplets condensed on the smooth tiles on the wall, occasionally sliding down and leaving a long trail.

Hearing the sound of water, Lin Ze's ears twitched slightly; he knew that Kitagawa Ayane-senpai had already sat in the bathtub.

The warm water soaked her young body. Kitagawa Ayane-senpai instinctively hugged her knee with one hand, perhaps out of shyness. With a hair tie in her mouth, she sat in the bathtub, grabbed the back of her head, twisted it a few times, and tied it into a small bun.

Thus, Kitagawa's classic oval face was revealed, with wispy hairs at her temples and fair skin on her cheeks like a peeled egg.

"There's a water dispenser nearby. If you feel the water is too cold, you can add hot water," he said gently.

“Okay.” Kitagawa Ayane subconsciously turned around to speak to him.

But this action caused a lot of water to spill out of the bathtub.

She immediately became quiet and dared not move again.

Soaking like this is very comfortable; Kitagawa Ayane feels warm all over.

"Senior."

"Hmm? I'm listening."

"Thank you for your cooperation," Lin Ze suddenly said.

Hear the words.

Kitagawa Ayane was taken aback, then she pursed her lips, shook her head, and her trembling eyelashes showed that her heart was not at peace.

"It's okay, I know you're doing this for my own good. If I don't cooperate, that would be too heartless... although I'm still a little hesitant."

She looked at the water, which was a pale blue color due to the addition of bath salts, and a hint of barely suppressed joy flashed in her eyes.

Being praised by the usually aloof Lin Ze was such a blessing that Kitagawa Ayane felt a little dizzy.

Based on his memory, Lin Ze took a few steps forward, supporting himself against the wall. He bent down and groped for the small stool that had been placed there, but after a few gropes, he couldn't reach it.

Seeing his actions, Kitagawa Ayane hurriedly reached out, grabbed a stool from the side, and pushed it over.

but.

Suddenly, Lin Ze's hand reached out and touched her wet hand.

He instinctively squeezed it, but upon feeling its warmth and slipperiness, he immediately realized it was his senior's hand and quickly let go.

The atmosphere wasn't actually that romantic to begin with.

But this touch stirred up some subtle emotions in both of them.

"I'll help you carry it," Kitagawa Ayane said softly, trying to hide her shyness.

"Well."

Soon, with the help of his senior, Lin Ze sat down next to the bathtub.

Although he had nowhere to put his long legs and could only bend them, there was no other way in this cramped space. He could only barely put them down by bracing his knees against a corner of the bathtub.

"Where should we start washing?" Lin Ze asked after a moment's thought.

He had no experience with this. "I'll listen to Dr. Lin."

Lin Ze recalled the system's task requirements in his mind, and then he thought about it for a moment.

"Let's start with the hair," he said casually.

"Okay, I'll turn around."

Kitagawa Ayane shifted her position in the bathtub, turning her back to Lin Ze, and then pulled off the hair tie she had recently put on.

In an instant, her long, smooth, black hair fell down, each strand as distinct as a pencil lead.

This is truly a beautiful scene.

If a girl is beautiful enough, then every move she makes will be captivating. Kitagawa Ayane clearly meets the requirement of being beautiful enough, but unfortunately, all Lin Ze sees is darkness.

He fumbled for the showerhead next to him and adjusted the temperature.

Turn on the switch.

Once the water temperature changed from cool to warm, I touched Kitagawa Ayane-senpai's hair and, following the posture of her body that I imagined in my mind, aimed the showerhead at her hair.

"How's the water temperature?"

"It's a little cold."

"Is it cool?"

He was a little confused. He had clearly tried it just now, but then he remembered that the body temperature of girls was indeed different from that of boys. So Lin Ze flipped the switch and raised the temperature a little higher.

"This time it's okay," Kitagawa Ayane said after testing it.

The water quickly soaked her hair, flowing irregularly from the top of her head down, cascading over her forehead, eyelashes, and cheeks, creating a splashing sound as water hit the bathtub.

Large and small water droplets disappeared into the pale blue bathtub.

Lin Ze rubbed her hair, trying to wet every strand.

He didn't pay attention to the force at first, but quickly realized that he might have used too much force, so he softened his movements.

"You'll be staying with me for five days, and we'll try our best to advance the treatment process to a new stage. This is a rare opportunity."

"Will Dr. Lin's family be able to return in five days?"

"correct."

"That's certainly been a long time, these five days... I hope you'll give me your guidance."

Kitagawa Ayane sat obediently, sensing Lin Ze's movements, and couldn't help but look forward to the next five days together.

"It's not so much about giving instructions, but rather about getting to know each other better. If you have any discomfort with your accommodations, feel free to tell us, and we'll try our best to make the process as easy as possible," Lin Ze replied, his hands still busy.

A moment of silence.

"Just being with you makes me feel relaxed. I don't care about anything else," Kitagawa Ayane said softly, lowering her eyes.

This is probably what she truly felt.

Especially after what happened these past few days, from Miyagi Suzuo's sharp words.

Kitagawa Ayane undoubtedly thought a lot about it.

That's all she asked for, nothing more. Nothing else mattered, not even if her junior, Miyagi, humiliated her with countless insults.

No one else can represent Lin Ze.

"I will do my best to stay by your side until you are cured." Lin Ze touched the bottle of shower gel next to him and squeezed out some.

Instantly, a fragrant rose scent filled the shower room.

"Now that the illness is cured, what happens next?"

"After that, you can return to a normal life with peace of mind. You won't have to worry about the illness affecting your future work and life anymore, and you won't have so much pressure," Lin Ze said matter-of-factly.

"After I'm cured... can I come back to see Dr. Lin again?"

"Why are you contacting me if you're already cured? For a follow-up check-up?" Lin Ze asked instinctively.

"No, what I mean is that I get along very well with Dr. Lin, and if possible, we can become good friends... which is something I'm really looking forward to."

"Friends?" Lin Ze thought for a moment.

He rubbed pure white foam into the senior's hair, spread his fingers, and combed through strands of hair, trying to get the foam to coat all the strands.

In the misty fog, Lin Ze washed off the foam clinging to his hands.
