"Sweet..."
As Sheng Yi listened to their back-and-forth conversation from afar, a smile gradually spread across his face.
After a flurry of activity, several hours had passed.
The three of them were not sleepy at all; in fact, they seemed to be getting more and more energetic.
Finally, Zhu Qinghao simply suggested that Sheng Yi and Si Tian have breakfast before going back, since it was getting late anyway.
Both of them agreed, but in the end, it was Sheng Yi, who had been busy all night, who started cooking. Si Tian helped out, while Zhu Qinghao sat on the side protesting.
"No, my foot is really almost healed! Why don't you believe me? Come and see for yourselves!"
They say seeing is believing, but you neither listen nor look, and just based on your own guesses you're still not better. Don't you think that's a bit much?
Sheng Yi was busy cooking and didn't even look up, mainly because he knew that if they made eye contact, he would definitely be the one to lose.
Si Tian was different; she wasn't afraid of Zhu Qinghao's big, watery eyes filled with grievance.
"I don't think so. In fact, I heard it. I even heard the saying left by our ancestors: 'It takes a hundred days to recover from a broken bone.'"
You've probably heard this before, right? Who has a kind person whose foot was swollen like a pig's trotter last night and is perfectly fine today?
"Sheng... even if Dr. Jiang's medicine is very effective, it might only make you look better on the surface. You still need to rest and recover internally. So stop howling and just sit there quietly!"
Si Tian thought for a moment and decided to continue calling Sheng Yi "Doctor Jiang". She was mainly worried that if she got used to calling him that, she might call him the wrong way in front of outsiders, so she might as well just keep calling him that.
Zhu Qinghao and Sheng Yi probably understood what she was thinking, so they let her be. It was just a form of address; as long as the person in question knew they were being addressed, that was enough.
Si Tian's words seemed to express Sheng Yi's true feelings.
Zhu Qing glanced at the silent Sheng Yi and knew that he must agree with Si Tian's opinion. If she wasn't careful, she might not be able to go up the mountain again.
"Sweet~ So sweet, believe me, I'm really almost healed. Look, it really doesn't hurt at all anymore."
Zhu Qinghao put on a pitiful expression and kept twisting her feet, trying to prove that her feet really didn't hurt.
However, Si Tian remained unmoved and did not turn her head.
"Stop talking, I'm not listening or looking. Breakfast isn't ready yet, so save your energy."
Sheng Yi listened from the side and suddenly realized that if he really didn't want to bring Zhu Qinghao up the mountain, he seemed to have someone to use.
So he looked up and met Zhu Qinghao's pleading gaze, giving her a helpless look.
"Brother Sheng Yi..."
Upon hearing this, Sheng Yi immediately sensed something was wrong, but before he could figure out how to respond, Si Tian spoke up.
"Stop it, stop calling me 'Brother Sheng Yi,' it's no use calling him that, because he can't control me at all, so he can't save you either."
"It's for your own good to let you rest and recover. Why are you so anxious to prove you're alright? Could it be that you have some other motive?"
Having her secret thoughts guessed so easily, Zhu Qinghao hurriedly denied it.
"No, no, that's not true. You're overthinking it."
She responded verbally, but inside she was crying.
This girl, I've never seen her so smart before, it's like she suddenly had a breakthrough, she's suddenly become so clever?
Si Tian didn't know whether she believed her or not. After giving her a look, she ignored her and focused on what she was doing.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to her, Zhu Qinghao had no choice but to settle down and watch Sheng Yi cook, propping her head up with her hand.
She was fine at first, but as soon as she settled down, sleepiness took over her mind.
