Chapter 615: Propose Marriage When I Return (18 Years Old)
"How are you? Did you fall anywhere?" Sheng Ze nervously held Shen Qingqian's shoulders and looked her up and down worriedly.
Shen Qingqian's ankle was in severe pain, so much so that tears came out of her eyes, but she gritted her teeth, showed a smile that was uglier than crying, and shook her head at Sheng Ze, "I twisted my ankle, but the rest of my ankle is fine."
The soil on the ground was too loose. The place where she had just stepped on was probably originally a pit, but when the heavy rain fell, a layer of soil was washed over to cover the pit. As a result, the pit was not buried solidly, and she was hit as soon as she stepped on it.
"Let's take care of it first," Sheng Ze picked her up without hesitation, frowning as he walked, "Didn't I ask you to follow my steps?"
His words made Shen Qingqian choke for a moment, and then she whispered: "I didn't mean to do that. The rotten leaves made the ground very slippery, and you took such big steps, I..."
"I'm sorry," Sheng Ze interrupted her, put her down, supported her with one hand, and tore the hem of his clothes with the other hand to spread them on the stone. He then lowered his head and said to her, "It's my problem. Please see if it's okay first."
As he said that, he pressed Shen Qingqian to sit on the stone and squatted down to take off her shoes.
Shen Qingqian was in so much pain that she didn't care about the rules between men and women. "Wait, wait..." Before she took off her shoes, she gasped, "Slow down, slow down..."
"It hurts so much and you still say it's okay?" Sheng Ze's brows were twisted into knots, and he had used as little force as possible with his hands.
Shen Qingqian took a deep breath, wanting to cry but unable to, "I didn't expect it to be so serious!"
As she spoke, she quickly took out the ointment for bruises and injuries.
Sheng Ze carefully took off her shoes and socks bit by bit. When he saw her bending down to apply the medicine herself, his face suddenly darkened, "I'll do it."
He directly took the small porcelain bottle from Shen Qingqian's hand. He was no longer as cautious as before when speaking to her. Instead, he applied the ointment to Shen Qingqian's ankle firmly and gently.
Shen Qingqian looked at her ankle which was swollen like a bun, and didn't even care that Sheng Ze was looking at her foot.
"You, you, please be gentler." Shen Qingqian gasped in pain, her teeth chattering, but Sheng Ze's grip suddenly increased, causing Shen Qingqian to burst into tears.
Sheng Ze said expressionlessly: "The bone is dislocated. If you don't straighten it now, do you want to become a cripple in the future?"
Hearing this, Shen Qingqian raised her hand to wipe away her tears and shook her head desperately, "I don't want to be a cripple!"
Oh my god, it's so serious when I twist it accidentally!
Seeing that she no longer cried out in pain, Sheng Ze cruelly touched her ankle and twisted it. He thought he would hear Shen Qingqian scream, but in the end he only heard a muffled groan and a rapid inhalation.
"Uh-hiss"
Sheng Ze looked up and saw Shen Qingqian with tears in her eyes. She bit her lips tightly, her eyelashes trembling, and she was looking down at her feet.
"Is it okay now?" Shen Qingqian didn't hear Sheng Ze's voice, and her ankle didn't hurt as much anymore, so she raised her eyes and asked.
When she raised her eyes, she met Sheng Ze's gaze on her, which made Shen Qingqian confused for a moment.
At this moment, Sheng Ze's eyes were full of heartache and self-blame, as well as a hint of guilt.
"What are you doing?" Shen Qingqian was suddenly picked up by him and subconsciously hugged his neck.
Sheng Ze said in a deep voice: "Find a place to rest, and leave when you are no longer in pain."
Shen Qingqian was crying in her heart, but she asked in return, "How can I leave now that I'm in this state?"
The system's ointment is more effective than the one she made. This sprain should be almost healed by the afternoon of the day after tomorrow, but it will be delayed for two days.
"I'll carry you up there." Sheng Ze pursed his lips, then said something that left Shen Qingqian dumbfounded, "I'll come and propose marriage when we get back."
