"What's wrong?"
Ruan Qingran walked over, looking at her foot still wrapped, with a slightly furrowed brow and a tone of concern in his inquiry.
Ruan Shu pursed her lips and replied somewhat embarrassedly, "I twisted it, but it doesn't hurt anymore."
Ruan Fengsi asked, "Didn't the doctor instruct you to avoid putting weight on this foot for a few days?"
Ruan Shu, in a very soft voice, looked at Ruan Qingran and said, "Qingran, I miss you so much."
Ruan Qingran naturally reached out and took the little one, with a slight smile on his lips.
"Coincidentally, I miss you too."
He rubbed the little one's head, and Ruan Shu also hugged his neck. Her eyes formed a crescent moon shape as she affectionately nuzzled against him.
Beside them, Ruan Fengsi felt somewhat superfluous. "..."
Damn! How did he end up looking like an outsider?
He couldn't help but sarcastically say, "Ruan Qingran, I thought you had a cleanliness obsession." The little one got quite sweaty when I was holding her.
Ruan Shu leaned against her cousin's arm and subconsciously glanced at herself. Indeed, her clothes were wrinkled from being folded.
Ruan Shu quickly apologized, her eyes filled with a cat-like sense of self-blame, "I'm sorry, Qingran."
Ruan Qingran looked at his cousin, who was watching the scene with a menacing look, and said, "It's okay, I don't mind."
He easily comforted the little girl, and she even held his hand against her chubby face, nuzzling against it like a cat.
Ruan Qingran then successfully observed his cousin's face darken.
He smiled slightly.
The two young men looked at each other, and the atmosphere inexplicably became tense.
Caught in the middle, Ruan Shu, who was a little slow to react, looked at one person and then the other, not understanding what was going on.
"Big brother, Qingran."
She called out to the two of them, feeling lost.
"It's okay."
"Not your concern."
Both of them spoke at the same time.
Fortunately, at that moment, the steward arrived with a breakfast tray, and Ruan Shu breathed a sigh of relief.
Observing the two young masters confronting each other, she not only felt no worry but also laughed cheerfully.
"Master, young master, please finish your breakfast before heading to the training room." "It's all prepared for you."
He spoke as if fighting were a very common occurrence.
Ruan Shu stated, "..."
The steward not only didn't dissuade them but also seemed to be adding fuel to the fire. What's going on?
"Give it to me."
As if he had a strange sense of competition, Ruan Fengsi reached out directly, staring straight at Ruan Qingran.
He was, of course, referring to Ruan Shu.
Ruan Qingran smiled faintly and said, "Cousin, why don't you go change your clothes first."
Ruan Fengsi looked down at his clothes, wet with sweat, and then at Ruan Shu, who was gentle and still carried a faint scent. His face appeared somewhat displeased. He turned and left.
If it weren't for talking to this guy, he would have gone upstairs to take a bath and change his clothes.
Ruan Shu looked timidly at her seemingly angry big brother, feeling a little worried.
"Is Big Brother angry?"
Ruan Qingran, on the other hand, was quite content. He placed Ruan Shu on the sofa and squatted down to hold her injured foot.
Her delicate little foot was wrapped in a bandage, looking quite pitiful.
Ruan Qingran's slender fingers unwrapped the bandage and checked the injured area.
He pressed it with his fingers, "Still hurting?"
Ruan Shu flinched slightly.
In fact, if her brother hadn't pressed it, she wouldn't have felt any pain.
She looked down and noticed that the swelling from the twist the day before had decreased significantly.
In a soft voice, she said, "Big brother helped me spray the medicine and apply pressure yesterday, and then the doctor came to bandage it up." It's much better now; not hurting as much.
The steward came over with a look of concern.
"Miss's constitution is not good." "If it were a few of the young masters, this kind of injury would have healed by now."
Her foot was still a bit swollen.
Ruan Shu widened her eyes slightly, pondering whether she had indeed recovered quickly. However, she questioned if she was truly as fragile as others.
Ruan Shu couldn't help but think that the human body in this world is truly resilient!
Ruan Qingran changed her medication and rewrapped it for her.
At this time, Ruan Fengsi also took a bath, changed into loose casual clothes, and came downstairs with his still damp black short hair.
Then, intentionally or not, Ruan Fengsi sat on the other side of Ruan Shu, as if he were opposing Ruan Qingran.
She was caught in the middle again.
Ruan Shu called out to her big brother in a soft, gentle voice, and then the three of them began to eat.
"Your favorite xiaolongbao."
Ruan Qingran placed a delicate xiaolongbao on her plate.
"Thank you, Qingran."
On the other hand, milk pudding was also served.
"Made with milk, eat more to grow taller."
Ruan Shu was almost used to her big brother's way of speaking.
"Thank you, big brother."
She was quite happy, eating up all the food that her two brothers had given her.
As time passed, she gazed at her small bowl filled with a variety of breakfast items, struggling to keep up with the quick eating and feeling utterly overwhelmed.
The two brothers had not stopped; they continued to pile food into her bowl.
Ruan Shu: ... Who will come to save me? QAQ
It seemed that the butler heard her call, and he walked over.
"Young masters, are you trying to overfeed the young lady?"
Ruan Shu quickly nodded, holding the bowl with her chopsticks, "I can't eat anymore."
Ruan Qingran and Ruan Fengsi glanced at each other, as if something was colliding fiercely.
Ruan Qingran said, "Cousin, Shu Shu can't eat so much."
He spoke slowly and calmly, exuding a mature elegance.
As if he hadn't been the one feeding Ruan Shu so much food earlier.
Ruan Fengsi, of course, was not to be outdone.
"Ridiculous, don't forget that half of what's in her bowl was fed by you."
Ruan Shu sighed softly, feeling as if her big brother and Qingran were like fierce dogs encountering a timid cat.
She simply picked up a clean pair of chopsticks and tried to divide the untouched food in her bowl between her two brothers.
It was all buns, dumplings, and various delicious pastries.
"Brothers, would you like some?"
Her soft, inquiring tone was accompanied by a gentle voice.
Ruan Fengsi sat casually and said, "I don't mind, it's just that someone has a cleanliness obsession..."
Ruan Qingran patted his little cousin's head and said, "It's okay, I'll do it myself."
He took back the food he had given to Ruan Shu, leaving none for Ruan Fengsi.
Good memory, and the disdain for someone was also quite obvious.
