Never Too Far Novel
Chapter 1161-1170
The bandages were taken off, and they started putting disinfectants on the wound. Ruka crouched down and held his hand to help distract him from the pain.
Ren held her hand. He tried his best not to even flinch despite the pain.
The nurses left after they changed the wound dressing. Silas said, “Miss Singed, I’ll need you to clean his upper body.”
Ruka blushed, but she nodded. “Sure. I’ll do that right away.”
Ren looked at Silas. Hey, I’m injured here. I don’t wanna get a boner when I’m injured.
Even so, he was looking forward to her cleaning him.
Ruka went and prepared the stuff needed to clean Ren up. She wanted to give him the best service he could get.
She came back with a basin of water and a towel, then thoroughly wiped him off. The lady was so serious, she didn’t even get any ideas about him. Her eyes were shining with a holy light.
Ren peered at Ruka, his eyes sparkling. He looked at her beautiful eyes, her aquiline nose, and finally, her crimson lips.
He felt his throat tightening up, and he gulped. “My neck next, please,” he said huskily.
Ruka quickly wiped his neck. She was an inch away from him. A smile curled Ren’s lips as he held her chin and pushed it up. He then pressed his lips against hers.
She stopped breathing for a moment, but she didn’t back off or refuse the kiss. Ren moved his hand to the back of her head, then he held her neck, pulling her closer for a deeper kiss.
The kiss went on until his chest was heaving and stabs of pain were coming from his wound. He reluctantly accepted that as the end of the kiss, but before they parted lips, he bit her lower lip.
Ruka pursed her lips and looked at him shyly. “Just focus on healing up. Don’t do anything stupid for now.”
He narrowed his eyes. “What do you mean ‘anything stupid’? Care to elaborate?”
She blinked at him and turned around to pick the basin up. “Just don’t do it.”
Ren heaved a sigh. Darn it. I could have slept with her today. If I get my hands on those b*stards, I’ll kill them!
Silas came to check in on him. He noticed an increase in Ren’s heart rate, but then that was possibly because of Ruka coming in close contact with him, so he didn’t check on that.
Elijah got Ruka a room to make it easier for her to care for Ren while he was down.
A moment later, an important guest turned up in the ward and talked to Ren for half an hour. He was even more of a bigshot than Ren was, and Ren respected this man a lot.
One good thing that came out of this accident was him getting a month of rest before the election.
“Rest up. I’ll handle everything. You’ve worked hard.” The man in his fifties gave people the feeling that he was an aristocrat or royalty. His eyes glinted with wisdom and intellect.
“Your nephew’s taking over the investigation. I believe he’ll find the assassins who attacked you. We won’t let this slide, and I will clear the system of any canker. They will pay for this.”
Ren nodded. “I see. I wish you good luck, sir.”
The man got up and patted his shoulder, then he left. His eight bodyguards formed a human wall around him and escorted him away.
Elijah came in looking all excited. “We’re getting a break, sir! A whole month of break! Oh my gosh, I’ve almost forgotten what freedom smells like.”
Elijah took a deep breath. Even the smell of disinfectant tasted like freedom.
Ren was happy as well. He did need some time to himself. After he confessed to Ruka, he hadn’t had time to be with her, as work overwhelmed him. And now I can spend a whole month with her.
Richard was in a top secret base at the moment. It had the most advanced tracking system installed, and his men were elites among the elites. They were also tracking geniuses.
The men were scanning the HD footage, and Trevor noticed something. He paused it and enlarged the frame. “Sir, his outfit’s changed, but he forgot to change one thing.” He enlarged the frame and showed the tattoo behind the man’s ear. “He was the sniper.”
The photos they took at the crime scene showed armed enemies. It was dark and chaotic. The enemies were hiding in the shadows, but thanks to the satellite, they managed to get a glimpse of the enemies. All they had to do was look for details and pinpoint these people’s location.
“Track him down and arrest him,” Richard ordered.
The range was huge, and this mission was important, but everyone did their work quietly and made reports of their progress. There were about a dozen screens playing security footage here. Richard was in his usual attire—a dark camouflage outfit. He was emanating a commanding aura at the moment.
Patience and an eye for detail were needed for tracking, and his men had these qualities.
The next day came eventually.
Ruka was having lunch with Ren at the hospital. Despite his wounds, he actually had a decent appetite.
“I ordered this for you. You’ll need it to replenish your blood.”
“Pig liver?” His eyes went wide before he refused, “Innards are not my thing.”
Ruka popped one piece of it into his bowl. “Just eat some. It’s good for you. You need meds and food to heal up, so stop being picky.”
Ren was frowning. It looked like asking him to gulp down a piece of pig liver was even worse than getting shot.
Ruka bit into one herself. She nodded. “It’s not bad.”
He had to eat it now no matter what. Surprisingly, the hospital’s chef was actually decent. It wasn’t as bad as he thought.
She kept filling his bowl with food, and Ren stopped being picky just to make sure she wasn’t worried about him.
Ruka took a food platter over and fed the fruits to him after that.
At this rate, I’m going to gain a few pounds when I’m all healed.
“Here’s a cherry. Works wonders for your blood. Have some more.” She fed a cherry to him.
“Blood aside, I think I need to replenish something else.” He ate the cherry and hinted something else at her.
She met his gaze and understood what he was talking about. She shook her head and peered at him. “Stop thinking about that.”
Ren looked at her angrily. How weak does she think I am? “Do you think I can’t get it up?” He narrowed his eyes while the air was filled with a hint of danger.
It was like if she said yes, he would prove that he could still get it up. Ren was bothered by that department due to their difference in age. He never had any practice before, but he knew he must be great in bed.
She stared at the ground and blinked, then she shook her head sheepishly.
Ren took a cherry and asked, “Want a cherry?”
Oh, he’s feeding me. She huddled closer and opened her mouth, but instead of feeding her the cherry, he pressed his lips against hers. The couple was starting to make out in the ward.
Elijah was in a hurry to see Ren so he could get his vacation form signed. In his excitement, he forgot to knock on the door. When he came in, the first thing he saw was the kiss. Oh, darn. I did not have to see that. I’m still single. Don’t break my heart.
He noticed the dangerously threatening look Ren was giving him, and Elijah froze. “Sorry. Carry on. Sorry.”
Ruka bit her lip and stared at the bed. “No, come in, Elijah.” And then she left.
“Sir, I’ll need you to sign this. I have to go abroad, but it won’t work without your approval.” He handed his form to Ren.
Ren took the pen and signed the form, though he was displeased. “Knock next time.”
Elijah forced a smile. He had no idea someone as stern as Ren would also fall for the wiles of romance. The big bad wolf’s gonna gobble up Little Red Riding Hood soon.
Elijah chuckled and tried to please his boss by saying, “I do hope I get invited to your wedding when I come back.”
“Have a safe trip. And be careful,” Ren said.
“I know. I concealed who I really am,” Elijah said. He picked the form up happily and left for his vacation.
Scarlet and Walter came a little while later. Just seeing how her brother was healing up relieved Scarlet.
Ruka chatted with Scarlet for a while. The only regret Scarlet had was that she couldn’t give them a wedding right away. That would have to wait until after the election.
Ruka didn’t mind. As long as they were together, it didn’t matter when the wedding was held.
Ren refused to continue staying in the hospital when afternoon rolled around. He wanted to go home.
Silas tried to stop him, but Ren insisted on going home. Being a VP was useful in this case, so Silas got him discharged despite all the hassle he had to go through.
Silas was a guy, and he had experience with romance before. He was very clear why Ren insisted on resting at home.
Ruka packed things up and left with him when she heard the news. Ren was wearing a comfy, dark-colored sweater and a brown coat. His usually majestic look was replaced by a family guy vibe.
The nurses who came to pack up for him blushed when they saw Ren. They couldn’t take their eyes off him. The ladies just kept dropping and toppling things.
When Ren left the hospital, Ruka held the extra scarf in her hand and told him, “Lower your head.”
