"Why be so polite? We're family now, so helping each other is only right! New cotton is so nice, it feels so different, so soft and fluffy. I can't even imagine how comfortable it would be to cover myself with it!"
Lin Yan was already beautiful and refined.
At that moment, her little face was buried in the snow-white cotton quilt.
His expression was calm and content.
Their expressions were as lively as an elf who had wandered into a snowy field!
At this moment, in Xie Muqing's world, it seemed as if all sounds had disappeared.
All that remained was his wildly beating heart...
Lin Yan's body wasn't made of iron after all.
I was on horseback all night and didn't get much sleep.
Now, nestled in the soft, new cotton quilt, she quickly drifted off to sleep.
However, since she hung the cotton quilts up to air them out, and she was standing, she was doing so.
unconsciously.
Her body was slowly leaning backward...
"careful!"
Xie Muqing, who had been secretly watching her, suddenly panicked.
An unprecedented panic flashed in his eyes!
At that moment, his mind went completely blank.
There was only one idea:
That means we absolutely cannot let her get hurt!
He endured the throbbing pain in his knees, quickly stood up from his wheelchair, and caught Lin Yan.
He pulled her into his arms!
However, he underestimated the weight of the two people and overestimated the strength of his own legs.
With a loud "boom".
The two of them fell to the ground together.
Because Xie Muqing was underneath her, Lin Yan was not injured at all.
But having just woken up from a nap, she wasn't very awake even after this ordeal.
Through a hazy, dreamlike gaze, she stared unblinkingly at the man pinned beneath her.
Such close-up observation.
Lin Yan then realized just how good Xie Muqing's skin really was!
Her face was smooth and flawless.
He had a small beauty mark under the corner of his right eye, which added an unexpected touch of allure to his handsome appearance.
"Hmm..."
Lin Yan only fully regained consciousness when she heard the man's suppressed, painful panting breaths from beneath her.
After apologizing, she quickly got off him.
After helping Xie Muqing back into his wheelchair, she knelt down in front of him and carefully examined his knees.
"How are you? Are you hurt anywhere? Does your knee hurt?"
"It's nothing, I'm not hurt anywhere."
Although Xie Muqing showed no sign of anything amiss.
But his slightly trembling voice and reddened ears betrayed his nervousness.
The warm touch of those small hands on his body made him tremble slightly!
A sharp pain shot through my left palm.
Xie Muqing then belatedly realized that he was injured.
He casually opened his palm, but quickly and hastily pulled it back.
Perhaps because of his injury, his movements became much slower.
Lin Yan immediately noticed the fleeting crimson color in the palm of his hand!
She ignored the man's desperate attempts to stop her.
They yanked his hand out!
The hand, which had been cut in several places by the pebbles, was now completely exposed to the two men's view.
"hiss!"
Seemingly unable to bear the pain, Xie Muqing's handsome eyebrows furrowed tightly.
"Bear with it for a moment, just wait for me."
Watching her retreating figure as she went back into the house, the handsome lips of the man in the wheelchair secretly curled up.
Lin Yan moved very quickly.
She quickly returned with her medicine kit and a basin of clean water.
When tending to her wounds, she looked focused and attentive.
The movements of her hands were so gentle.
"If you get injured in the future, no matter how minor, you have to tell me. Don't hide it and avoid seeing a doctor. I won't charge you for treatment, so what are you afraid of?"
Her tone was concerned but also slightly reproachful.
Xie Muqing could no longer maintain his composure and looked at Lin Yan with a complicated expression.
A sudden feeling of powerlessness welled up inside him.
He never imagined that his behavior just now would be interpreted by her as him trying to save on medical expenses!
He finally understood what it meant to "wink at a blind man."
Oh well, never mind!
It's still because he didn't try hard enough...
He chose this path, and he will walk it even if he has to crawl on his knees!
"I am now poor, crippled, and have no status. If I keep getting hurt, my wife will surely despise me. What will I do then?"
Lin Yan couldn't help but let out a wail from the bottom of her heart:
That scheming green tea b*tch is putting on her act again.
I have no idea what kind of crazy idea they're up to...
She simply couldn't believe that someone who could drag his crippled and seriously ill body to her house to kill her would be such a self-pitying person.
"You're so young, what are you thinking about all day? Don't worry, you're so beautiful, how could I possibly dislike you? Being poor is only temporary, we're still so young, we can work hard slowly, what's there to be afraid of!"
Although the wound wasn't deep, Lin Yan still carefully disinfected and treated Xie Muqing's wound.
Only then did she go to the hot pot restaurant.
At that time, three women were sitting at the entrance of the shop.
Upon seeing Lin Yan and the other two, they immediately stood up.
"Shopkeeper, we heard your shop is hiring vegetable washing staff, so we came to apply. Don't worry, we're very strong..."
Seemingly worried about being rejected, the group became increasingly timid and stood awkwardly to the side.
Lin Yan then noticed the hands of the group.
