Having already said those words, Zhu Qinghao felt she had been a bit childish and wondered if she might have left a bad impression on Sheng Yi.
Unbeknownst to her, Sheng Yi, looking at her childlike appearance, was suddenly reminded of Zhu Qinghao when she was a child, and a deep longing appeared in his eyes.
He had watched her show this side of herself to others many times from the corner, but this was the first time she had acted so childlike in front of him.
Even though Sheng Yi was worried about Zhu Qinghao's foot injury, he couldn't bring himself to refuse.
He swallowed hard, exhaled quietly, and answered softly.
"Okay, since the consequences are so terrible, I'll try my best not to make Hao Hao so angry. But your foot..."
"My foot will get better, it will be better tomorrow!"
Zhu Qinghao answered very quickly, as if she was afraid that if she answered too late, Sheng Yi would give her a conclusion she didn't want to hear.
However, Sheng Yi found it strange that she answered so confidently.
"How can you be so sure it will be better tomorrow? Why?"
Zhu Qinghao hadn't expected this scene, but her ability to make things up was quite good, and she blurted out:
"I trust you, I trust your medical skills and medicine, and I trust my own foot, isn't that enough? I can feel that after applying the medicine, it doesn't hurt much anymore."
Hearing Zhu Qinghao say that she believed in his medical skills and medicine, Sheng Yi's mood brightened considerably.
He could tell there was an element of perfunctoriness in his tone, but who could prove that Zhu Qinghao didn't genuinely believe in his medical skills and medicine?
Besides, Zhu Qinghao herself said that she trusts him, his medical skills and medicine, so what's the big deal about being happy?
"Okay, then you should get some rest. I'll take you there when you're feeling better."
I might not be able to come over around dinner time. The food is still warm in the pot, so please be careful when you get it, or I can come over later to check on it.
Listening to his detailed arrangements, Zhu Qinghao nodded her head so hard it was like a rattle-drum going off the rails.
"Okay, okay, I understand. Go ahead, but don't come if you're too busy. I can manage on my own, don't worry, Sheng Yi."
Zhu Qinghao knew that if he could come, he definitely wouldn't refuse; if he couldn't come, there must be other things that prevented him from leaving.
So she readily agreed, hoping to get him to stop worrying about her and focus on his own business.
However, the more Zhu Qinghao said this, the more worried Sheng Yi became. He felt even more that he shouldn't have left the injured Zhu Qinghao alone at home, and he was preoccupied with how to come back as soon as possible.
After watching Sheng Yi leave, Zhu Qinghao flashed into her spatial dimension, ran straight to the spirit spring with a clear purpose, fetched a small basin of water, and prepared to soak her feet.
She didn't distrust Sheng Yi's medicine; she just felt it was an extra layer of insurance, since she really wanted to go to the mountain, and double insurance would always be more reliable.
Although her injury wasn't serious to begin with, it's hard to say when she would recover if she relied solely on that Chinese medicine.
While soaking her feet, she didn't wipe off the medicine Sheng Yi had applied; since it was wrapped in gauze, she just left it on her feet.
After gently placing her feet in the water, she quickly felt an indescribable sense of comfort spreading from her ankles throughout her body, making her feel so comfortable that she felt sleepy.
Zhu Qinghao always followed her heart, so the first thing she did after soaking her feet was to go back to her room and take a nap.
Sleeping in the space would definitely be more comfortable, since the temperature inside is much more comfortable than outside. However, she was also worried that she might oversleep and not be able to find her if Si Tian or Sheng Yi came to visit.
However, it was actually fine outside. Sheng Yi had heated the kang (a traditional heated brick bed) when he cooked lunch, so she didn't feel cold at all when she lay down on it.
