They actually made up such an obvious lie for him.
Lin Ruanruan's eyes unconsciously darted elsewhere; she couldn't very well say that she had been taking a cold shower for almost half an hour...
With a dark expression, Huo Qi pushed Lin Ruanruan back into the room, closed the door, and found a hairdryer to dry her hair.
He noticed that Lin Ruanruan's hands were trembling, and there were obvious wrinkles on them from being soaked in water. He quickly reached out and covered them with his hands. "So cold?"
Huo Qi quickly put down the hairdryer, felt her forehead and neck, and then squatted down seriously to make Lin Ruanruan look directly at him. "Ruanruan, tell me, have you been taking cold showers the whole time?"
Lin Ruanruan couldn't help but blink, "I..."
"Why is your right eye so red?" Huo Qi looked at Lin Ruanruan's eyes with heartache, and he couldn't help but reach out and touch the corner of Lin Ruanruan's red eye.
"I..." Lin Ruanruan was a little flustered. She didn't know how to explain. Her fingers were severely distorted, her mind was blank, and she couldn't make a sound after saying "I".
Huo Qi quickly took off his clothes and draped them over Lin Ruanruan, thinking that Ruanruan was cold, her face was pale and her fingers were trembling.
He hugged Lin Ruanruan tightly, his hot body temperature instantly warming her body. "Ruanruan, can you tell me what's wrong?"
Huo Qi frantically reviewed everything that had just happened in his mind. When did it happen? When did A-Ruan start acting strangely?
Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind. He remembered that when Mo Jiang patted Aruan's shoulder, Aruan's body stiffened for a moment.
Apart from that, he couldn't find any other indication that A-Ruan's emotions had changed.
"Is it because of Mayor Mo?"
Huo Qi felt the person in his arms trembling even more violently, and couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache. Why was this happening?
Upon hearing Mo Jiang's name, Lin Ruanruan couldn't help but recall her past life's experiences. "Brother Huo, my eyes hurt so much..."
Tears started streaming down her face again. "My eyes hurt..."
It really hurts to be dug out alive.
Huo Qi quickly blew on Lin Ruanruan's eyes, "Shall we go to the hospital to see if she accidentally bumped into something?"
Lin Ruanruan shook her head. Her hands finally stopped trembling, and she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. She hugged Huo Qi back and vented all the confusion and helplessness she had just felt.
Huo Qi didn't know what had happened. He could only hold Lin Ruanruan tightly and tenderly wipe away her tears.
Could it be that Mo Jiang did something to A Ruan without his knowledge? Huo Qi's face darkened. No, A Ruan clearly didn't know Mo Jiang; this was their first meeting.
Moreover, he stayed by Aruan's side the whole time, and she never spoke to Mo Jiang alone.
After crying for a long time, Lin Ruanruan seemed to have released all her grievances. She exhausted herself and leaned weakly against Huo Qi's chest.
"Brother Huo."
"Yes, I'm here," Huo Qi replied gently.
"I don't think Mayor Mo is a good person. Please don't associate with him, okay?" Lin Ruanruan lowered her eyelids. The way Mo looked at her back then was too familiar, so familiar that it made her feel disgusted and scared.
"Fine, I won't associate with him." After Huo Qi finished speaking, he realized that the person in his arms had stopped moving.
Upon closer inspection, the person was already asleep.
Huo Qi sighed, picked up the hairdryer next to him, turned it to the lowest setting, and carefully dried the smooth hair in his hands.
Finally, he carefully carried her to the bed, tucked her in, adjusted the room temperature, took a deep look at Lin Ruanruan who was sleeping soundly in bed, and then left the room.
His Ah Ruan seems to have her own secrets.
Huo Qi went downstairs to greet Grandpa and Grandma Lin, saying that Lin Ruanruan seemed to have caught a cold and had fallen asleep.
He offered to help make some ginger soup, and Grandma Lin was heartbroken upon hearing this, so she quickly went into the kitchen with Huo Qi.
