Chapter 210 Flashback
After massaging for a full five minutes, Lin Feiyan finally stopped, looked up with a smile, and said, "Apply the medicine again before going to bed tonight."
Ye Qingning nodded, her gaze falling on his injured hand: "Why did you use your hand just now? Even if you had used your foot, you wouldn't have been injured so badly..."
"In a moment of desperation," Lin Feiyan paused, "I was afraid that if you closed the door, you would never open it again for me."
"Don't you have the key?"
“In this situation, I have to respect you.”
Ye Qingning: "..."
She rubbed some ointment from the bottle: "Give me your hand."
Lin Feiyan reached out his hand, and Ye Qingning carefully applied the ointment to it. In the end, she chuckled and pouted at Lin Feiyan, saying, "Can we please stop arguing like this, where both of us get hurt? I hurt my leg and you hurt your hand, why bother!"
Lin Feiyan's gaze was fixed on Ye Qingning's face. Seeing her radiant smile, his brows and eyes relaxed as well: "Okay."
Ye Qingning gently massaged him for a while, then suddenly yawned.
Lin Feiyan then withdrew his hand: "I'll do it myself, you take a nap first."
Ye Qingning was indeed a little sleepy. She rubbed her eyes and said, "Okay."
She lay down on the bed, but Lin Feiyan didn't leave. He tucked the blanket around her again. Ye Qingning was really sleepy. She stared at Lin Feiyan for a while and then fell asleep on her own.
Only after her breathing had stabilized did Lin Feiyan lower his eyes, smile, and leave her room.
...
When Ye Qingning woke up from her afternoon nap, it was already dark. She stretched, threw off the covers, and got out of bed. The injury on her knee was still there, but the pain was gone. It seemed that Chen Ci's ointment had cured her.
Then she belatedly realized a problem: why did she fall on the skateboard?
She's not a complete beginner to skateboarding.
I guess it's because I've been stuck in my room eating and sleeping all day lately, and I've become completely out of sorts.
Therefore, she came to the conclusion that people cannot be idle.
Get moving.
She washed her face and went downstairs. Aunt Qin hurriedly came out of the dining room with a smile: "Madam is up? Then I'll go prepare dinner. Is there anything you'd like to eat?"
Ye Qingning thought for a moment: "Let's get something to replenish qi and blood, I haven't been feeling well lately."
No sooner had she finished speaking than the sound of a cup shattering came from the tea room. She took two steps over and saw Xiao Cui squatting on the ground picking up the broken pieces.
She handed him a broom and asked, "What happened?"
"It's alright, madam. The water was too hot, I didn't notice. I'll clean it up." Xiao Cui didn't dare to look up at her and cleaned up the mess on the floor by herself.
Seeing the coffee stains, Ye Qingning realized it must be time for Lin Feiyan to have coffee.
But isn't Lin Feiyan's coffee always 65 degrees Celsius? How could it still burn your hand?
She didn't think much of it: "I'll prepare the coffee, you just clean the floor."
"Okay," Xiao Cui replied.
Ye Qingning suddenly got into a mischievous mood, brewed a cup of piping hot coffee, added a few extra sugar cubes, and took it to Lin Feiyan's study.
She reached the door and knocked. A deep male voice came from inside the room: "Come in."
Ye Qingning pushed open the door and saw the man writing furiously, his gaze not even looking in the direction of the door.
A white shirt and a neatly tied tie, paired with his indifferent and calm expression, inexplicably added a touch of asceticism.
The neat and clean buzz cut even added a touch of sharpness and domineering. It was the first time Ye Qingning had seen someone combine the temperament of a domineering CEO and a playboy, and still make people feel very attracted.
She coughed lightly, and the man suddenly looked up. The moment he saw her, a smile bloomed on his face, his eyes and brows radiating joy.
"woke up?"
Ye Qingning nodded: "Mm."
She handed him the coffee, only to find the man's gaze fixed on her face, his deep eyes filled with a burning intensity.
Ye Qingning felt a little embarrassed by his gaze: "Why are you staring at me?"
Lin Fei said in a light and cheerful tone, "It seems you're really not angry anymore."
Ye Qingning scoffed, "I'm too lazy to get angry with you."
Lin Feiyan took the coffee from her hand, paused for a moment but didn't drink it, and just smiled and said, "I still remember the first thing you did when you first came to the Lin residence was to make me a cup of coffee."
Ye Qingning nodded casually and said, "You still remember?"
"Of course." Lin Feiyan recalled with a smile: "The weather was very nice that day. I opened the window and smelled the fragrance of cherry blossoms. You were wearing a light pink chiffon blouse and had a few cherry blossom petals in your hair."
He didn't know why he remembered that scene, but it was magical; he clearly remembered the moment she first arrived.
He caught the subtle caution and inquiry in her eyes, as well as her scrutiny of him, and silently memorized it.
It slowly took root and sprouted.
Now, all I remember are beautiful memories.
Ye Qingning paused, not expecting him to remember such a detailed thing.
Lin Feiyan didn't say anything more, smiled and went to drink his coffee. Before Ye Qingning could stop him, he had already taken a big gulp.
Ye Qingning: "Hot..."
Lin Feiyan didn't even frown as he slowly swallowed the coffee, which was at least 85 degrees.
Ye Qingning scolded him, "Can't you feel how hot the cup is when it's in your hand?"
Lin Feiyan smiled and said, "You brought it to me."
Ye Qingning took the cup from his hand and placed it on the coaster: "Well, I didn't ask you to drink it now."
Lin Feiyan raised an eyebrow: "Why add so much sugar?"
