For a full two minutes, Ye Xiaoning struggled to remove Xu Yixueâs shoes; by then, Xu Yixue was drenched in sweat from the pain, and her complexion had become somewhat pale.
âYixue, your foot injury seems quite severe,â Ye Xiaoning said with some gravity.
Xu Yixueâs ankle was swollen a whole size larger than usual and slightly red, throbbing with pain at the slightest movement. It was painful even to lie in bed, let alone walk, requiring careful positioning.
âXiao Ning, how long will I need treatment before it gets better?â Xu Yixueâs expression grew serious after hearing Ye Xiaoningâs words.
âYixue, your ankle injury is pretty bad. At this rate, even with hospital treatment, it would take at least a week to recover,â Ye Xiaoning said worriedly.
âA week? That wonât do. I have a contract to negotiate tomorrow. Our Xinghai Media is in the midst of expansion, and we already have so few clients. It was not easy to secure orders; I should definitely attend,â Xu Yixue said anxiously.
âBut your foot canât bear weight at all. If you do, it will only get worse. I had a comrade in the army who sprained his ankle, insisted on finishing a drill, and as a result, his leg never healed properly,â Ye Xiaoning said with a hint of sorrow.
âYouâre kidding me. What am I supposed to do, then? I canât exactly negotiate contracts in a wheelchair; the clients would laugh me to death,â Xu Yixue pondered with a troubled face.
It was all that dogâs fault. Why did it have to appear in Tongtongâs room? Now Iâve sprained my ankle and canât even take care of the companyâs business. The company is already facing undercurrents, the employees harbor their own thoughts, and if I, the CEO, donât show up for a week, who knows what the company will turn into.
Xu Yixue frowned, filled with worry.
âMom⊠itâs all Tongtongâs fault⊠It was Tongtong who wanted a sidekick, so I asked Dad to buy Ben Ben. Scold me, please,â Tongtong said, seeing Xu Yixueâs pale face and her swollen foot, and lay down beside her, her tears falling like broken pearls.
âItâs not Tongtongâs fault. Itâs Mommyâs fault for wearing heels for too long and not being used to flats, which led to the sprain. Donât worry, Mommy will be fine,â Xu Yixue said, stroking Tongtongâs head with a look of loving tenderness.
âMom, I wanted Dad to buy Ben Ben because I felt so sorry for him with his broken leg. I didnât know this would happenâŠâ Tongtong continued to sob and complain to Xu Yixue.
âTongtong, what are you talking about? The dog had a broken leg? But when I saw it just now, all four of its legs were healthy,â Ye Xiaoning asked in surprise upon hearing Tongtongâs words.
âWuu⊠Dad⊠fixed Ben Benâs lame leg⊠so now⊠Ben Ben is a healthy dog,â Tongtong, still crying and somewhat confused, said.
âHealed even a broken leg?â A flicker of astonishment flashed in Ye Xiaoningâs eyes as she curiously gazed at Xu Fan.
Having heard Tongtongâs words, Xu Yixue also seemed to understand something and suddenly turned her gaze to Xu Fan.
Xu Fan, seeing the two beautiful women staring straight at him, said indifferently, âWhat are you looking at me for? Itâs just fixing a dogâs leg, nothing noteworthy.â
âSo, what you said about healing Yixueâs foot in an hour⊠is that true too?â Ye Xiaoning asked urgently.
âWhy would I lie to you?â Xu Fan said with a nonchalant shrug.
âYou should treat Yixueâs foot as well; we have a very important event to attend tomorrow. If Yixueâs foot canât heal, there will be a lot of trouble,â Ye Xiaoning said to Xu Fan earnestly, without hesitation.
âXiao Ning, donât ask him. Just look at his smug face, you can tell he doesnât want to do it. Rather than having someone reluctantly treat me, Iâd rather limp to the event myself,â Xu Yixue snapped bitterly at Xu Fan, with a hint of grievance in her voice.
âYou one says treat, the other says donâtâwhat am I supposed to do?â Xu Fan stroked his chin with a troubled expression.
âDaddy, please come and treat Mommyâs leg. Tongtong hates seeing Mommy in pain,â Tongtong also ran over, grabbed onto Xu Fanâs leg, and began cajolingly shaking it back and forth, as if to say she wouldnât let go until he agreed.
âSince my beloved daughter has spoken, this great doctor will deign to help relieve the patientâs pain,â Xu Fan said, stroking his daughterâs smooth forehead.
âThank you, Daddy. I knew you were the best,â Tongtong stood on her tiptoes and cutely pursed her lips at Xu Fan.
Xu Fan bent down and put his cheek close to Tongtongâs face.
âMua! Mua! Mua! Daddy, go and make Mommyâs leg better. Tongtong wants Mommy to be healthy,â Tongtong said adorably, shaking her little head.
âAlright, Iâll heed the command of our little ancestor,â Xu Fan pinched Tongtongâs rosy cheek and stood up, walking over to the sofa where Xu Yixue was lying.
âI donât need your pityâgo away,â Xu Yixue, though she really wanted Xu Fan to heal her foot, couldnât help feeling irritated upon seeing him, so she remained stubborn and spoke coldly to Xu Fan.
âXu Yixue, Iâm not doing this for you right nowâI just donât want to see my daughter sad,â Xu Fan said indifferently. Then, without waiting for Xu Yixue to respond, he bent down and took hold of Xu Yixueâs injured foot.
âHmmâŠâ Xu Yixue let out a soft moan when Xu Fan seized her foot, a blush spread across her face, but she stubbornly refused to concede, insisting, âLet go of me, donât you dare touch this ladyâs foot.â
âNo worries, Iâll go wash my hands in a bit,â Xu Fan said casually.
âIâll kick you to death, you rascal!â Xu Yixue almost exploded on the spot at Xu Fanâs comment.
Xu Yixueâs feet were delicate and fair, never having been touched by a man. She didnât want Xu Fan to touch her feet, yet he had the audacity to say he would wash his hands afterwardâas if she was the one who should be disgusted, not him deeming her feet unworthy. Finndd the newđst đovels on n/đ/velbin(.)com
âDonât move around,â Xu Fan said gently as he sat on the sofa, whispering in Xu Yixueâs ear, then pressed her other flailing foot under his own.
âNow close your eyes and relax your body,â Xu Fanâs voice was steady.
For some reason, despite being full of anger towards Xu Fan, Xu Yixue felt inexplicably trusting when she heard his words and unconsciously complied, gently closing her eyes and slowly relaxing her body.
Xu Fan gently cradled Xu Yixueâs injured foot, his large hand slowly caressing it.
Hmm, so smooth.
