044 Yanxi, you've fallen.
Xie Yaoyao was in so much pain that cold sweat poured down her forehead. She looked at him, puzzled. "Is there a problem?"
Huo Yanxi met her calm eyes and felt a pang in his heart.
Yes, is there a problem?
She was Huo Zidu's tutor, not the mistress of the house.
She has the right to leave at any time.
But the thought of her leaving made him inexplicably restless and uneasy.
"no problem."
The man's tone was harsh, sounding both angry and resentful, but Xie Yaoyao didn't bother to discern it.
She lay on the sofa, her lower back aching slightly, and her head spinning.
Xie Ziyu squatted down beside the sofa and took a tissue to wipe the cold sweat from her forehead.
Seeing her face turn as pale as paper, he was terrified. "Mommy, does it hurt a lot? Let me blow on it for you."
Before Xie Yaoyao could stop him, Xie Ziyu pulled up her shirt, revealing a section of her fair and delicate waist.
She has a birthmark on her lower back that is said to look like a flower petal, which she didn't know about before.
Even after she and Huo Yanxi had sex, he kept kissing that petal that day.
Repeatedly sucking.
He didn't leave until that skin turned red and hot, still feeling unsatisfied.
Now, Xie Ziyu suddenly lifted the hem of her shirt, exposing the birthmark to the air without any cover.
Xie Yaoyao frantically tried to pull at the hem of her shirt, but the movement sent a sharp pain through her lower back.
Her wrist was pressed down by a large, warm hand. "Teacher Xie, don't move."
Xie Yaoyao's forehead was covered in cold sweat, she didn't know if it was from the pain or the shock.
She almost reflexively looked at Huo Yanxi's expression. Had he not seen the birthmark on her waist?
Huo Yanxi frowned. "Teacher Xie, don't move around."
Xie Yaoyao didn't notice anything unusual on his face, and she breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Thankfully, I didn't see it.
The hem of her clothes fell back to her lower back as Huo Yanxi pulled Xie Ziyu away, saying, "Do you want to make her injury worse?"
Xie Ziyu, who had been resisting, quieted down. His eyes were brimming with tears. "Will my mommy be alright?"
Huo Yanxi frowned slightly when he saw that he was acting like a little crybaby and had no manly spirit at all.
However, she patiently replied, "No."
"It's all your fault!" Xie Ziyu turned his head and glared at Huo Zidu, who was peeking in from the doorway.
Huo Zidu looked worried, and felt a little guilty under Xie Ziyu's fierce gaze.
But he stubbornly insisted, "I didn't ask her to be my human cushion."
Xie Ziyu's eyes were red. "My mommy shouldn't have saved you, you ungrateful wretch."
Huo Zidu snorted coldly and withdrew his head as if to leave.
Xie Ziyu stood by the sofa, looking at Xie Yaoyao's pained expression, feeling both angry and annoyed, yet also heartbroken.
He lectured like a little adult, "Look at what you saved by sacrificing yourself for others?"
Xie Yaoyao: "Okay, Yubao, I'm fine. I just twisted my ankle. The doctor will come and check on me in a bit."
Xie Ziyu sniffed. "Who wants to worry about you?"
Huo Yanxi remained quiet. Was he seeing things? How could he have seen a birthmark resembling flower petals on Xie Yaoyao's lower back?
He really wanted to lift up her clothes to see if he was seeing things or if she really had a birthmark on her lower back.
But……
This is too abrupt.
His relationship with Xie Yaoyao was purely employer-employee; he couldn't let things get complicated.
Just as he was hesitating, Jane, the housekeeper, came over with the family doctor.
When Fu Hua received the call from Butler Jian, she thought something had happened to Huo Yanxi, so she rushed over.
He was standing there perfectly fine, staring intently at the woman lying on the sofa.
Well... to be more precise, she's a fat woman.
He'd seen fat people before, but never anyone this fat; one person practically filled the entire sofa.
He walked over with his first-aid kit and asked Huo Yanxi, "What's the situation now?"
Huo Yanxi: "It seems like she has a sprained back. Can you take a look and see if she needs to go to the hospital?"
Fu Hua put down the first-aid kit. "Where are you hurt? Let me check."
Xie Yaoyao said, "It hurts a lot, about two inches above my coccyx in my lower back."
She doesn't shy away from medical treatment; she clearly states where she hurts so that the doctor doesn't waste time and effort.
Fu Hua found her voice very pleasant; if she hadn't seen her, the voice would have sounded like that of a beautiful woman.
He pressed his fingers about two inches above the coccyx, not too hard. "Does it hurt?"
Xie Yaoyao shed a few tears from the pain, gently inhaling, her lips red and moist: "It hurts, it hurts, it hurts..."
Fu Hua pressed her fingers up and down, then turned her head to look at Xie Yaoyao.
She looked as if she had just been pulled out of the water, her long, fair neck beaded with cold sweat.
Her features were rounded, but her eyebrows and eyes were delicate, so she wasn't ugly.
They're chubby and cute.
Fu Hua's fingers felt like they were on fire. He lowered his eyelids, lightened the pressure on his hands, and softened his voice.
"And now?"
Xie Yaoyao shook her head. "It's alright."
Fu Hua moved her finger again, drawing circles around the area she said hurt to expand the examination area.
What about here?
Xie Yaoyao shook her head again.
After the examination, Fu Hua stood up straight, his fingertips burning. Even through her clothes, he felt as if he could directly touch her smooth, silky skin.
He rubbed his fingers together and looked at Huo Yanxi. "The bones are fine; it's probably a soft tissue contusion caused by gravity."
When Xie Yaoyao heard that no bones were broken, she breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at Xie Ziyu sitting on the carpet next to her with tears in his eyes, she reached out and gently stroked the bridge of his nose.
"Little crybaby, I'm fine. The doctor said it's just a soft tissue contusion."
Xie Ziyu burst into tears, crying, "Mommy, please don't save that heartless ingrate anymore."
Xie Yaoyao didn't expect him to cry so easily; it seems he was really frightened just now.
She reached out to wipe his tears, "Okay, stop crying."
Doubao jumped up, put its front paws on Xie Ziyu's shoulder, and stuck out its tongue to lick his tears.
Xie Ziyu's face was itchy, and he was amused by Doubao. He was crying and laughing at the same time, without feeling ashamed at all.
Fu Hua stood to the side with her arms crossed, looked at Xie Ziyu, and then at Xie Yaoyao.
"She already has a child this big?"
He had just been feeling a little romantic, but when he saw that there was such a big child, he immediately lost interest.
Huo Yanxi saw through his thoughts, "Yes, put away your philandering ideas, she is still a married woman."
Yes, Xie Yaoyao is married.
It's all clearly stated in the investigation report.
He was warning Fu Hua, and also warning himself, that Xie Yaoyao could not be Chi Xiaoman.
Fu Hua hadn't intended to do anything, but he raised an eyebrow at Huo Yanxi and asked in a low voice, "Yanxi, you seemed so nervous just now, were you having second thoughts?"
Huo Yanxi is a model of male virtue in Hong Kong's entertainment circle, as he is not interested in women. In the past five years, he has not had a single woman by his side.
Yet, he allowed Xie Yaoyao and her child to live in his house and showed him such concern.
It seems even the aloof and celibate paragon of male virtue is tempted by worldly desires.
"Do you think everyone is like you, that every woman can go into heat?" Huo Yanxi retorted without any politeness.
Fu Hua shrugged dismissively, took a bottle of safflower oil from her medicine box and handed it to him. "Apply it to the wound three times a day and press for 15 minutes to let the medicine penetrate the skin. You'll be jumping around again in less than three days."
Huo Yanxi stared at the bottle of safflower oil as if it were a monster. "Why are you giving it to me?"
Fu Hua said, "Could it be that we should give it to Uncle Jian and have him apply the medicine to Teacher Xie?"
Huo Yanxi imagined that scene and felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
He reached out and took the safflower oil, meeting Fu Hua's unfathomable gaze. He forced himself to save face, saying, "Uncle Jian is clumsy, I'm worried he might make Teacher Xie's injury worse."
Fu Hua slung her medicine box over her shoulder and waved at him, "Yanxi, you're done for."
