The wind seemed to stop for a moment.
Shi Yan slowly lowered his eyelashes. The hair on his forehead was a little long, as if there was a layer of dark shadow attached to his eyebrows, obscuring his expression at the moment.
The boy looked inexplicably aggrieved as he lowered his head. His palm holding the spray was slightly tense, and the red can made the skin on the back of his hand look slightly pale.
"Sheng Yuan," he spoke with difficulty after a long time, his voice low: "Okay, don't forget to recognize me."
"Why do I need to know you?"
Sheng Yuan sneered, as if she was finally willing to talk to him normally.
Seeing this, Yan looked up.
She had a blank expression on her face, and suddenly said, "What happened to that senior is true. It's true that his legs are crippled, and it's also true that I caused it."
The girl leaned down and met Shi Yan's gaze. She looked interested, with a hint of viciousness in her beautiful almond-shaped eyes. She said word by word, "Shi Yan, that's it. Aren't you afraid?"
"——Aren't you afraid that I will cripple you too?"
Sheng Yuan carefully observed Shi Yan's expression, waiting for any reaction he might have after hearing these words.
Was he stunned, shocked, or trying to remain calm?
Neither.
Shi Yan was very calm, whether before or after Sheng Yuan spoke.
His eyelashes didn't even move.
He half-knelt in front of her, his eyelids were thin and his dark pupils were clear. What was originally a serious matter ended up being dealt with lightly by him.
He didn't take it seriously and said, "Oh, go ahead and do it."
Sheng Yuan frowned: "What."
Shi Yan still looked at her like this and repeated: "Do whatever you want. You can do whatever you want."
Sheng Yuan: “…”
It is completely different from what one would normally expect.
Shi Yan neither firmly expressed his disbelief in the rumors, nor did he excuse Sheng Yuan by saying that she had her own reasons for doing so.
He directly and unconditionally obeyed Sheng Yuan, obeying everything Sheng Yuan said and did.
Sheng Yuan looked at Shi Yan for a while.
As if she was suddenly speechless because of Shi Yan, she glanced at Shi Yan with a look that said "you are seriously ill".
then.
He turned his head to the other side, looked out the window, and no longer looked at Shi Yan.
Shi Yan looked at the girl's profile, which looked a little angry, and pursed the corners of his mouth imperceptibly.
——It seemed as if something was broken between the two of them.
Shi Yan picked up the bottle of spray again.
Although Sheng Yuan still didn't look at him.
But this time.
She didn't dodge anymore and let him treat her sprain.
With the subtle sound of the medicine being sprayed, a calming cool feeling spread across the ankles.
Sheng Yuan turned her head awkwardly, looked down, and saw Shi Yan lowering his brows and looking submissive.
The young man's cold brows showed a serious expression, and his hands moved seriously.
Afraid of hurting her.
After applying cold compress.
Shi Yan put down the red spray and picked up the white spray next to it that was used to relieve pain.
After spraying the potion, Shi Yan asked, "Besides the swelling and pain in your ankle, are you feeling any other discomfort?"
Sheng Yuan: “No more.”
Shi Yan nodded.
He put the caps on both cans of spray, took them, stood up, and gently instructed: "After that, don't do any more strenuous activities. Try not to walk if you can. Even if you have to walk, walk slowly to avoid secondary injuries."
Sheng Yuan suddenly spoke up: "Shi Yan."
"Well, what." Hearing her calling his name, Shi Yan stood where he was, waiting attentively for what she was going to say next.
Sheng Yuan said: "You didn't talk so much before."
"Is that so?"
Sheng Yuan looked at Shi Yan and commented: "You are being very long-winded now."
Shi Yan hesitated for two seconds and said in a low voice: "Oh."
He paused: "But still, pay attention."
…
At this time.
There was a sound of a door being pushed open outside.
This time it was Dr. Fan who came back.
"I'm sorry, classmate. The meeting delayed me a little."
"I heard you sprained your ankle, how do you feel--"
As soon as he finished speaking, Dr. Fan looked up and saw Shi Yan, and was very surprised.
"Hmm? Xiaoyan, why are you here?"
Dr. Fan seems to know Shi Yan.
She looked at Sheng Yuan who was sitting there, and then at the two jars in Shi Yan's hands.
"Is this, everything settled?"
"Um."
Doctor Fan widened his eyes and asked in disbelief, "You, you treated someone else...?"
"Um."
"I see." As if she had discovered something new and extraordinary, Doctor Fan's expression suddenly became a little meaningful. She blinked her eyes and said, "Xiao Yan, you haven't introduced this beautiful girl yet. Is this you--?"
Shi Yan: “Classmate.”
Doctor Fan said in a teasing tone: "Oh, classmate~~~"
Shi Yan: “…”
Shi Yan put the two cans of spray back to their original place in the cabinet, turned around and walked towards Sheng Yuan.
"Come on, I'll take you back to the classroom."
Sheng Yuan didn't have time to get up.
"Wait, this student can't leave yet,"
Doctor Fan said seriously, "It takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone. A sprained foot is something that needs special attention. Let me take a good look at it first."
That's what he said.
But the gossipy gleam in Doctor Fan's eyes could not be hidden.
"..." Shi Yan frowned, "It's just a sprain. I've already sprayed medicine on it."
"Really? Are you the doctor or am I the doctor?"
Doctor Fan shut Shi Yan up with just one sentence.
"Besides, it's the little girl who sprained the ankle, not you. You have no right to speak."
Shi Yan: “…”
Doctor Fan ignored Shi Yan and sat down on the stool opposite Sheng Yuan. He looked friendly and smiled at Sheng Yuan.
"Little classmate, what's your name?"
"Sheng Yuan."
"Sheng Yuan? Which Yuan?"
"iris."
“It’s a nice name.”
Doctor Fan asked again: "I haven't seen you in school before. Are you an exchange student from Tengya Private School?"
"yes."
"Then how did you and Shi Yan know each other?" Doctor Fan was really curious.
Sheng Yuan: “.”
Does this have anything to do with her sprain?
"We were desk mates for a few days."
"Wow, being this kid's deskmate must be really boring," Doctor Fan said disdainfully, "He's the type who can't say a word for three days."
Sheng Yuan looked up at Shi Yan.
Shi Yan: “…”
After Doctor Fan finished complaining, he suddenly changed the subject: "However, although he has a dull personality, he is still a good person. Little classmate, let me tell you, he is never easily warm-hearted. Today, he actually-"
"Little Sister Fan." Shi Yan finally couldn't help but speak out, word by word, "The bell is about to ring, we have to go back to the classroom first."
…
When Dr. Fan's husband came to deliver the sweet water, he saw his wife standing at the door with her neck stretched out.
"What are you looking at, wife?"
Following his wife's line of sight -
On the tree-lined path, dappled sunlight shines through the gaps between the leaves.
The boy in school uniform followed closely beside the girl who was walking slowly due to an injured foot.
He held out his hand and let her hold it on his wrist.
The other hand wearing the watch was suspended in the air behind her so that he could support her immediately in case she lost balance.
He lowered his neck slightly, looking handsome and serious.
Doctor Fan sighed, "It's really rare. I finally see popularity in this kid one day."
