Xie Xianyu was stunned for a moment. It was the first time he saw her so enthusiastic. His brows furrowed again, worried that she was really in trouble.
He hugged her and patted her back gently: "Are you injured? Have you asked the doctor?"
Wanruo buried her head in his arms and shook her head. "No, I just fell into the water and was scared. The lake was so cold, I was frozen stiff. I almost thought I would never see you again."
As she spoke, her voice began to tear up.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Don't say such unlucky words." He scolded her lightly.
He glanced down at her bare feet, frowning, and immediately picked her up and carried her to the bed: "Since you fell into the water, you might have caught a cold. You are so reckless. What if you catch a cold?"
Wanruo grabbed his collar and sobbed, "If I get sick, will you leave me?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" It was the first time he saw her being so clingy.
Maybe she fell into the water and was frightened.
He was originally trying a case at the Dali Temple. When he heard Qing'an say that she had fallen into the water and nearly died, he hurried back in a panic without even having time to change his clothes.
Wan Ruo snuggled into his arms: "Then you will never leave me no matter what?"
"Of course not."
"What if you get married?"
He felt a little helpless, not knowing why she suddenly became so insecure, but deep down he really liked her sticking to him.
He stroked her cheek gently, his tone was unusually gentle: "Wanwan, I will never leave you, no matter what time, I will stay with you."
Wanruo raised her eyes and glanced at the flower trees outside the window. The flowers trembled slightly. Through the gaps between the flowers, she saw a pair of eyes, a pair of red eyes filled with jealousy.
Jiang Xuejun was trembling all over, and the handkerchief in her hand was crumpled into a ball.
She could hardly believe that the man in front of her was Xie Xianyu.
He coaxed the woman so patiently and comforted her so lovingly. She became spoiled because of his favor, and he indulged her and made a promise to him for a lifetime.
Then what is she?
She suddenly met the eyes of the woman in Xie Xianyu's arms. The eyes were cold, sharp, and piercing, as if an invisible sword had pierced her brow.
Jiang Xuejun finally realized that she did it on purpose!
It turned out that she was not the only one who was pretending to be submissive in the room just now, Xu Wanruo was also.
Wan Ruo looked at Xie Xianyu with misty eyes: "Really?"
"Really." He coaxed patiently.
She climbed onto his shoulders with both hands, raised her head and kissed him on the lips.
He stroked her back and kissed her softly.
Jiang Xuejun couldn't bear to look at him anymore and turned away from him angrily.
Wanruo glanced at the shadow falling behind the flower tree and knew that Jiang Xuejun had left.
She let go of Xie Xianyu. He pinched her waist and wanted to kiss her deeper, but she turned her head away and said sullenly, "I'm a little tired. Maybe I caught a cold. I have a headache and I want to sleep for a while."
Xie Xianyu's eyebrows were twitching wildly. She had made him so angry, and now he said he had a headache?
His throat felt dry, and seeing her frail appearance, he finally gave up.
He took a deep breath and said, "Then you should take a good rest."
Although he felt a little uncomfortable because she had aroused his passion and he couldn't put it out, it was rare for her to rely on him like this today, so he was willing to treat her better.
Xie Xianyu instructed Cuizhu to look for the doctor and gave him a few instructions. Seeing that Wanruo had closed her eyes, he got up and left so as not to disturb her sleep.
Xie Xianyu left Qiu Shui Courtyard and went out of the house again. He had not finished his work at the Dali Temple yet, so he had to rush back.
Unexpectedly, when he reached the gate of the mansion, he bumped into Jiang Xuejun.
"Thank you, Mr. Xie." Jiang Xuejun's eyes lit up and she took a few steps forward, but when she saw his indifferent eyes again, her heart sank.
He had regained his dignified and self-possessed appearance, as if the man in Qiu Shui Courtyard just now was not him.
"Miss Jiang."
Jiang Xuejun forced a smile and said, "I just came to see Miss Xu. Miss Xu accidentally fell into the water today. I was very worried. It's all my fault for not taking good care of her. I didn't expect her to get into an argument with someone and fall into the water after being pushed..."
"She doesn't like crowds, so don't invite her to banquets like this in the future." Xie Xianyu said in a cold voice.
Jiang Xuejun's smile froze. Xie Xianyu had no intention of hiding anything. He didn't even ask about Xu Wanruo's disgraceful quarrel with others, and completely protected her.
"yes."
Xie Xianyu raised his foot and was about to leave.
Jiang Xuejun suddenly spoke up, "It's a good thing we have a scholar to help us today. Otherwise, Miss Xu would have fallen into the water and would have been in such a state. After all, she is a woman, and she is very young. Her reputation is more important than anything else."
Xie Xianyu paused and turned back coldly: "What scholar?"
