Wen Yixing stopped and looked at it, only to find that her ankle was swelling up rapidly.
It was still a bit far from home. Wen Yixing called her father, but they were probably busy and no one answered.
With no other option, Wen Yixing endured the pain and slowly walked back.
"With stars?"
She hadn't gone far when she heard someone call her. She turned around and saw that the person who called her was wearing a white vest, looked rather thin, and had a refined and gentle appearance.
Wen Yixing remembered; this was her elementary school classmate, Li Wenbo.
She had heard Wen Jianguo mention before that Li Wenbo had returned to be a village official after graduation and had done a good job over the years, even winning some awards.
"It really is you." Li Wenbo walked over, his eyes bright as he smiled at her.
Wen Yixing smiled and said, "What a coincidence."
Li Wenbo looked down: "What happened to your foot?"
Wen Yixing: "I accidentally twisted my ankle."
There was no one else nearby who could help. Li Wenbo looked around and then at Wen Yixing: "It's not far from your home. How about I carry you back?"
Wen Yixing remembered that Li Wenbo wasn't in good health, so without thinking much, she said directly, "It's okay, just help me up."
Li Wenbo supported her arm, and Wen Yixing shifted her weight onto her other foot, slowly walking forward.
It was so hot that they both started sweating very quickly.
Li Wenbo wiped his sweat and happened to see someone not far away. He said in a low voice, "How about this, I'll go ahead and borrow a car from a fellow villager. Wait for me for a moment."
Wen Yixing nodded, about to say yes, but when she looked up, her gaze fell on the black luxury car not far away.
Such luxury cars are completely out of place here.
The car door opened, and a person got out.
Looking at him from afar, Wen Yixing felt as if her mind had stopped for a few seconds, going completely blank.
By the time she realized what was happening, Shen Jingshao had already walked over.
His attire was still impeccable, with a well-tailored white shirt and suit trousers, giving him an air of unapproachability.
Li Wenbo instinctively shielded Wen Yixing behind him. "...And you are?"
Shen Jingshao's gaze fell on her ankles. She was wearing trousers when she went out today, but she had rolled up the cuffs after her injury.
The redness and swelling on her fair ankle were very noticeable; it looked painful.
Even in this condition, she was still walking slowly.
Shen Jingshao was absolutely furious with her.
He ignored Li Wenbo, approached directly, and picked Wen Yixing up in his arms.
Wen Yixing was startled and instinctively reached out to hug his neck.
Before Wen Yixing could react, she heard Shen Jingshao say to Li Wenbo, "Her boyfriend."
