"Don't talk nonsense." Xie Yunzhou covered the girl's mouth with his hand and kissed her black eyes. "Let's go back."
Shi Xi's eyes curved as she nodded obediently.
Xie Yunzhou carried Shi Xi up horizontally. When he thought of how she had limped just now, his heart ached. "Where are you hurt? Does it hurt?"
"It should be a fracture in the calf." Shi Xi leaned into his embrace. "It's alright. I'll be fine after I go back and lie down for a few days."
Xie Yunzhou hugged Shi Xi and avoided Shi Xi's injured leg. His movements were gentle. It was as if he was holding a rare treasure, afraid that he would accidentally break it.
Shi Xi hugged him tightly. "It's okay. I'll scream if it hurts."
"Alright," said Xie Yunzhou in a low voice.
When the white fox saw Xie Yunzhou carrying Shi Xi, it walked around him and bared its sharp teeth as it howled fiercely, looking as if it wanted to pounce on him.
