Tang Mingchuan was very worried about the little girl. Since her parents were not at home, he secretly went to check on her to feel relieved.
The girl was so silly and didn't know if she could take care of herself. Tang Mingchuan felt heartbroken, not knowing how deep her wound was.
"When your parents go to work tomorrow, I'll sneak over to see you," Tang Mingchuan said in a low voice.
Lin Xi's eyes sparkled with excitement, smiling like a crescent moon. She had been troubled for several days because she couldn't see him.
Thinking that she would see Tang Mingchuan tomorrow, her foot didn't seem to hurt so much anymore.
"When you come tomorrow, I have something for you," Lin Xi buried her face in the blanket and said softly.
"Then I'll come early to see what my little girl has prepared for me," Tang Mingchuan said happily.
The room fell silent, with neither of them speaking, just quietly looking at each other, making up for the two days they hadn't seen each other.
...
Lin Xi had a foot injury and couldn't go downstairs, but Song Yaya was very proactive in offering to go downstairs to pick up Tang Mingchuan. Lin Xi knew she had feelings for Tang Mingchuan, but since she couldn't move her foot, she had to ask Song Yaya to go downstairs to bring Tang Mingchuan up.
Lin Xi still trusted Tang Mingchuan. Even if Song Yaya had intentions, Tang Mingchuan wouldn't pay any attention to her. Song Yaya specially wore a pretty dress and even wore the necklace Lin Xi bought for her. She knew Tang Mingchuan would come and felt everything was going as she expected.
She dressed up before going downstairs.
She had just gone downstairs and saw Tang Mingchuan already standing downstairs. Tang Mingchuan, tall and striking, stood out downstairs.
With a smile on her face, Song Yaya walked towards Tang Mingchuan. "Brother, let's go upstairs," she said, thinking she used the sweetest voice that anyone would find irresistible.
Song Yaya was very close to Tang Mingchuan, her gaze fixed on his handsome face, her cheeks flushed with shyness.
Tang Mingchuan didn't like Song Yaya, and from the last time he went to the airport to pick her up, he could tell she was a scheming girl. Faced with her sweet voice, Tang Mingchuan didn't even want to talk to her.
Song Yaya felt embarrassed. Even Lin Xi, who was so plain and gentle, could win Tang Mingchuan's favor. She wasn't going to give up so easily.
...
Tang Mingchuan put Lin Xi on the bed, very carefully, kneeling on the ground and carefully examining Lin Xi's foot wrapped in gauze. The gauze was faintly red, probably because the wound had just reopened when she stood up.
"Lin Xi, can't you listen to me? Do you have to hurt yourself?" Tang Mingchuan was angry again, angry that Lin Xi couldn't take care of herself.
"I was wrong. I just wanted to see you so much that I rushed to stand up. I won't do it again next time," Lin Xi said with a spoiled tone, making it impossible to be angry.
Tang Mingchuan snorted lightly, "Where's the gauze? Let me rewrap it for you." Tang Mingchuan's bandaging technique was very good. When he saw Lin Xi's deep red wound, his face darkened. How much pain must the little girl have felt at that time?
"It's wrapped. Don't move around anymore. Where do you want to go? I'll carry you," Tang Mingchuan still had a stern face, but his words showed concern.
Lin Xi smiled, glanced at the tie on the table, and saw the tie on the table that she bought for Tang Mingchuan.
"Achuan, there's a gift for you on the table. Go take a look," Lin Xi pointed to the gift box on the table. Tang Mingchuan picked up the gift box and carefully opened it. Inside lay a beautiful dark silver-striped tie.
"Is this for me?" Tang Mingchuan looked at Lin Xi.
"Yes, I saw it at the mall yesterday when my foot was fine. I thought it suited you, so I bought it," Lin Xi said, seeing Tang Mingchuan's expression, knowing that he really liked it.
Tang Mingchuan took out the tie, looked at it left and right, liked it very much, and saw a small card under the box, which read: "Tie you down for a lifetime." "Tie you down for a lifetime, just like you said," Tang Mingchuan picked up the card, his eyes filled with affection.
Lin Xi blushed, thinking that the card was probably put in by the store clerk, but it was good, after all, she bought it for this meaning!
The room was filled with affection, but it was suddenly interrupted by a knock on the door.
Tang Mingchuan went to open the door, and sure enough, Song Yaya was standing outside.
Seeing Tang Mingchuan's face, Song Yaya was taken aback, lifted the fruits in her hand, and said, "Brother, Lin Xi, I brought you some fruits."
Tang Mingchuan took the fruits. "Thank you. Lin Xi and I have something to talk about. There's no need for you to come and knock on the door unless it's something special." His words were sharp, and he closed the door after speaking.
Song Yaya was left outside the door, her face completely embarrassed. Tang Mingchuan was in Lin Xi's room. If she didn't go in, she would have no chance to get close to Tang Mingchuan. She had worked so hard to come up with a solution, but ended up being shut out.
Tang Mingchuan brought the fruits to Lin Xi's side.
"My cousin just came?" Lin Xi handed the fruits to Tang Mingchuan.
Tang Mingchuan cooperatively took a bite. "Yes, then I said I had something to discuss with you and told her not to knock on the door if there was nothing special."
Lin Xi: "...".
