Chapter 288 - Jiang Ruolan, Concern Is Concern. Why Do You Need To Find So Many Reasons To Deny It? (2/2)
Xian Zihao put his hand on her shoulder. He did not use much strength but she was unable to get up. Jiang Ruolan looked up at him in surprise. The doctor had already walked in while they were in this state.
”Look at her ankle.” Xian Zihao said lightly.
The doctor nodded and carefully held Jiang Ruolan's foot. The moment his finger touched her swollen ankle, she trembled in pain. Jiang Ruolan bit her lips. She didn't cry out in pain, instead, she turned her head away, forcibly endure the pain.
The doctor gave her ankle another squeeze and his action had caused her to tremble in pain. Jiang Ruolan bit her lips, hard.
”Stop biting your lips.” Xian Zihao whispered.
Jiang Ruolan acted like she didn't hear anything. She was in so much pain and if she didn't bite her lips, wouldn't she be shouting? Wouldn't that be embarrassing to death!
The doctor continued examining her injury. It was inevitable that he would touch the swelling on her ankle, but the pain made her want to cry.
Just as she felt she was about to bite her lips again, a hand reached out and touched her mouth.
Jiang Ruolan looked at Xian Zihao in stunned, then back at his hand. She turned her head away from his hand and continued to bite her lips.
Then the hand came again, to her mouth.
She turned her head away again, and he held out his hand again.
Finally, she got angry and bit down his hand as the doctor pressed slightly on the sore spot. She could not be more ruthless.
”Her ankle was sprained. To reduce the swelling, we will apply for some medicine, and she needs to rest for a few days.” the doctor said.
Xian Zihao let out a sigh of relief when he heard the doctor say that Jiang Ruolan's injuries weren't serious. He was just about to pull his hand out of her mouth when he realized that she was still biting on it with the same strength. He turned his head to look at her.
Jiang Ruolan suddenly opened her mouth and let go of his hand. She looked at the deep bloody wound on the back of his hand and coldly turned her head away. ”I told you I was fine.”
Xian Zihao just chuckled. He then signaled the doctor that he could leave now. He instructed the staff to bring two ice bags over.
When the ice bags arrived in time, they were alone. Xian Zihao leaned down and placed them on her ankles.
”Hiss …” Jiang Ruolan flinched.
”Don't move.” Xian Zihao firmly held her swollen ankle.
”I'll do it myself.” Jiang Ruolan said while trying to snatch the ice bag.
Seeing her insistence, Xian Zihao let her do as she wanted. He moved his hand away and let her hold the ice bag.
Jiang Ruolan had been busy the whole afternoon and had not eaten anything at night. Now, she has a swollen ankle. She lowered her head and looked at her feet with melancholy.
What kind of sin was this!?
”It's raining so heavily, why did you run out to find me?” A faint voice suddenly sounded.
Jiang Ruolan tightened her grip on the ice bag but didn't avoid answering the question. ”I said it already, I don't want you to be in danger just because I stole your umbrella.”
”Jiang Ruolan, concern is concern. Why do you need to find so many reasons to deny it?” He chuckled.
