Xiao Xunfang noticed the small red patch on her daughter's arm once again.
Then she remembered the plaster and gauze her daughter had brought home that night, and several guesses and some expectations formed in her mind.
After all, she couldn't bear to take her daughter to the doctor or buy medicine when she had a high fever before...
"Ni'er, did you really burn yourself by accident? Did no one bully you?"
She knew that although Liang Zhirou was a bit naive, she was never clumsy when doing things after working for more than ten years.
No.

With her eyes still a little red, Liang Zhirou finally tidied herself up and lay down on the bed, exhausted.
Curious, I tapped on the message notification on my phone, and a smile instantly spread across my face.
With a charming smile, she was incredibly lovely.
