She stood there, her hands trembling, watching Chen Yifei shed tears.
Chen Yifei quickly picked the child up, supporting the little bottom, and held him in his arms.
"What’s wrong with you?"
She was fine at first; she could stop crying on her own after a while.
But when the person you care about most asks you, "What's wrong with you?"
My heart is filled with grievances, and the more the people I care about ask, the more I want to cry.
I feel so awful.
"Chen Yifei, I'm so sorry... I..." She sobbed and couldn't speak, "I didn't protect the watch you gave me. It was very valuable, it was our engagement gift... I, I was so stupid, I'm so sorry."
Clutching her watch, her eyes were filled with pain: "I even sprained my ankle, I'm so useless."
Chen Yifei carefully pulled her along and placed her on the back of the bicycle. Then he carefully squatted down, his fingers cold, and gently massaged her red and swollen ankle.
It's quite obvious from this; she's seriously sprained her ankle, yet she's still walking forward...
Chen Yifei felt a pang of heartache.
"If the watch is broken, it's broken. We don't need it anymore. I'll buy you a new one." Chen Yifei didn't think much of it; he wanted to give his wife the best since he had the money.
He Runqing clenched his fists tightly: "This is bad."
"Chen Yifei, this one is different."
Her eyes were brimming with tears, as if Chen Yifei were some kind of bad person.
"This is a gift from you. It represents the most important thing in our relationship. I want to... I want to keep it safe."
She said this while wiping away her tears.
"Okay, I'll take it to get it fixed." Chen Yifei took it, his voice becoming very gentle.
Look at her ankle.
He didn't move his foot, so I don't know if he twisted a bone.
Without hesitation, he half-squatted down and said, "Qingqing, come up here."
He Runqing was somewhat surprised and a little embarrassed: "I'm a bit heavy..."
"Come on up, I'll take you to see the barefoot doctor. I remember the barefoot doctor is good at treating bones; he's set several bones before. He's very skilled."
"Let's go check if everything's alright."
Although He Runqing still harbored some resentment, he had not yet clarified the questions in Chen Yifei's mind.
Right now, leaning against his back, I feel incredibly drawn to his scent.
It would be wonderful if we could stay together like this forever.
He Runqing is so nostalgic and fond of her... How can she make Chen Yifei like her in the same way?
Can you please stop liking Zheng Fang?
However, He Runqing also knew that, no matter what, the fact remained that she had liked him.
She was so upset that tears streamed down her face.
Although Chen Yifei felt a burning desire inside, he remained calm on the surface: "Don't be afraid, we'll be there soon."
"Everything will be alright."
The two were very close; she felt light and weightless.
Actually, there are some rules to follow when carrying a girl on your back.
If the girl is unwilling to get close, and her whole body leans back, it will be difficult to carry her on your back, and there may be accidents.
But she clung to him tightly.
The two weren't too close, because there was still softness between them.
They could even sense the subtle, almost imperceptible, closeness between the two of them.
This feeling is very special; it's as if it can stir up a special kind of excitement in my heart.
He Runqing rested her head on his shoulder.
Then, he asked cautiously, "Chen Yifei..."
"Hmm, you're so kind to others, haven't you been this kind to many people?"
Chen Yifei: ?
Why ask such a question out of the blue?
He was a little confused, but still answered seriously, "No, I only carried you on my back."
Hearing this, she felt much more at ease and hugged his arm tighter and tighter.
I really want to hold Chen Yifei tightly in my arms. Such a good person shouldn't be taken away by someone else.
“No, there’s someone else too,” Chen Yifei said thoughtfully, “my sister.”
"When I was little, I used to sneak over the wall behind my sister's back. That's all."
He Runqing's expression, which had been sour upon hearing this, instantly brightened up.
"Yes, you're so kind."
"I can carry our child on my back and ride a horse in the future." Chen Yifei said eagerly. "Of course, we shouldn't let the child be too noisy, or my cervical spine will give out."
"Hmm." It would be nice to have two children.
I need to work harder in the future.
He Runqing felt a sweet warmth in her heart.
When He Runqing spoke, his breath was constantly blowing hot air towards Chen Yifei's ear. Chen Yifei felt it was too close and had no choice but to sweat more.
Right now, my main concern is for my wife.
He Runqing hesitated when he arrived at the door of the barefoot doctor's office.
"Chen Yifei...maybe I won't go. I can walk, and I'll be fine in a couple of days."
"It's terrifying if I have to get acupuncture or something." She's mainly afraid of all kinds of needles, whether it's Western medicine or traditional Chinese medicine.
Needles were everywhere. I've been afraid of them since I was little, and I even get dizzy from needles.
When I got to the door, I chickened out and wanted to go home.
Chen Yifei held her tightly on his back: "No."
"It's not scary. What do I have to be afraid of?"
"I'll cover your eyes for you then."
They waited until He Runqing was placed in front of the village's barefoot doctor. He Runqing sat down, and the doctor immediately looked at his feet.
Then I found some alcohol and gauze.
The barefoot doctor said:
"Actually, it's nothing serious. She's just swollen, there's no bone injury. It's just that her skin is so delicate and fair that it looks like something serious."
Chen Yifei breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing the previous sentence, as long as He Runqing was alright. She was afraid of pain; if her bones were broken, she would suffer a lot and it would take a long time to heal.
