Strangers Not In Different Paths - Chapter 269

She was also wearing a thin gray sweater.

Huo Tingdong pulled the quilt over to cover her upper leg. The Kang was very hot and wouldn’t feel cold.

“Dad, I’m really fine.”

Huo Tingdong frowned at her and said

“Roll up your trouser legs and let me see. Don’t worry. I won’t scold you even if I get hurt this time.”

Ye Jinxin thought for a moment and reluctantly bent his legs and rolled his trouser legs above his knees.

She never told Huo Tingdong that when she came to him, she had frostbite on her knee because she walked in the snow for too long and couldn’t adapt to the terrible dry and cold.

She was afraid that Huo Tingdong was worried, so she kept it from her.

The trouser legs are rolled up and the swollen knee bones are exposed. Because of chilblain and long-term grinding pressure of slate, they have been swollen and high. Some frozen wounds exude a little blood.

Looking at the terrible wound, Huo Tingdong’s eyes shook violently. He quickly put her legs down gently, covered her with a quilt, bit his teeth and said, “give it back to me. It doesn’t work to scold. It’s time to fight!”

Ye Jinxin frowned wrongfully and muttered, “you just said you wouldn’t scold me, but now you’ve hit me. Huo Tingdong, you’re really not as good to me as before.”

Is it true that men are unreliable as Grandpa said?

Huo Tingdong looked up at her poor face and couldn’t help bending down and whispering with the tip of her ear

“Before, you were not mine, so you had to coax and cheat. Now your heart is mine and people are mine. Naturally, you can fight and scold.”

Ye Jinxin’s pupils suddenly shrunk, narrowed his eyes and said, “tell me again.”

Huo Tingdong straightened up and touched her face expressionless. “I didn’t say anything.”

Ye Jinxin leaned down and bit his chin to vent his anger.

Huo Tingdong got up and took out frostbite cream from the cabinet. “Stretch out your legs and I’ll give you some medicine.”

Ye Jinxin skillfully stretched out his legs from the warm quilt.

Huo Tingdong put some ointment on her hand and put it on her knee.

Ye Jinxin shrunk his legs and said, “isn’t there a cotton swab? Why use your hand?”

Huo Tingdong straightened her calf. “I can master the strength with my hands.”

Ye Jinxin said, “but it’s dirty…”

Huo Tingdong smiled, leaned down, kissed her white calf and said, “you’re not dirty anywhere.”

“No.” Ye Jinxin said seriously, “I think your hands are dirty.”

Huo Tingdong “…”

Soon, Huo Tingdong finished applying frostbite cream to her.

He pulled up the quilt, covered the person tightly and said, “stay here for a few days. Stay in bed and don’t go anywhere.”

Ye Jinxin suddenly asked, “Dad, if you worship your ancestors, will yunqi also come?”

Gao yunqi’s mother is the daughter of Huo’s parents. She will certainly come to worship her ancestors.

Huo Tingdong was stunned and his face sank. “Ask him what to do?”

Ye Jinxin raised her eyebrows. “It’s nothing. I just feel bored to stay here. If he comes, I can…”

“Why?” the man interrupted her with a sneer. “I feel bored with me and happy with him?”

“No!” Ye Jinxin anxiously explained, “yunqi can draw. We can compete with each other together.”

“I can draw, too. Why can’t you remember to compete with me?”

“Oh, you haven’t got good skills yet. Yun Qi has studied for a long time. He paints better than you.”

Ye Jinxin didn’t notice that Huo Tingdong’s face was completely black.

She doesn’t know how a woman praises another man in front of the man who likes her, which is a great blow to the man who likes her. Moreover, Gao yunqi once tried to confess to her.

Huo Tingdong stared at her coldly and said, “do you think… He is better than me?”

Ye Jinxin pursed her lips. “I don’t know anything else, but painting must be better than you, because yunqi after all……”

“Yunqi, yunqi, how many times do you have to call his name?”

Huo Tingdong suddenly lost control of his emotions and shouted to interrupt her.

Ye Jinxin was so stunned that he stared at him and asked, “what’s the matter with you? What did I say?”

Huo Tingdong said coldly, “if you think he’s good, go to him. Can’t I go?”

With that, the man went out without looking back.

Looking at his proud and lonely back, ye Jinxin looked confused.

What is this? What do you mean you think it’s easy to find him? Is that what children say?!

“Alas!” Ye Jinxin helplessly buried his head in his knee and said, “why is this man so childish now?

***************

Ye Jinxin still didn’t dare to stay in bed because he had to send Mr. Huo away. He dressed up early and waited at the door,

When the old man came out, his mood seemed to slow down a lot. He didn’t blow his beard and stare at her. When he spoke, he also smiled a little.

Ye Jinxin took him to the only bus stop in this small county.

The terrain here is wet and slippery. It’s dangerous for private cars to drive here, so when you go out, you either walk or take the bus.

“Grandpa, I have to wait here for my father to come back. I won’t see you off myself. You should pay attention to safety on the way.”

“It’s all right.” Huo Jingyi straightened the collar of his cotton coat. “My body is hard. You don’t have to worry.”

Ye Jinxin gave a sound, took off the scarf around his neck, raised his hand to Huo Jingyi and said, “Grandpa, it’s not cold here. You can wrap more.”

Huo Jingyi’s expression was a little moved. His eyes flashed and said, “girl, you are a good child. Tingdong still doesn’t deserve you. I advise you to think more.”

Ye Jinxin said, “Grandpa, my father is excellent. Please don’t slander him behind his back again and again.”

Huo Jingyi shook his head and said regretfully, “in fact, I have many excellent grandchildren and nephews. They are young and talented. Why do you…”
