Chapter 290 - This Rain Is Very Meaningful To Me (1/2)

Jiang Ruolan did not know what to say, so she had to make excuses and pretend her ankle hurt. Xian Zihao helped her sit up against the headboard and put an ice bag at her feet. ”Lie like this and don't move.”

As he spoke, Xian Zihao moved the ice bag a little to look at the swelling on her ankle. He seemed to be checking if the swelling had subsided a bit or not.

Xian Zihao gently caressed her ankle. Although Jiang Ruolan still felt some pain, she restrained herself and did not pull her foot away.

”Did you have a sprain before you found me?” he asked suddenly.

If Jiang Ruolan had her sprain after she found him, her ankle wouldn't have been swollen like this, unless she had been sprain for a long time and had been limping around in the potholes.

”I wasn't injured for long. It was just that I accidentally stepped on a rock.” Jiang Ruolan pretended to be in pain and quickly pushed his hand away, covering the swelling with her hand and not letting him see.

However, Xian Zihao pushed her hand away and helped her apply the ice bag while lightly holding her ankle. He gently turned her ankle, causing her to suddenly cry out in pain as she hurriedly tried to retract her foot.

”Since you're injured like this, you don't have to follow Wan Shoushan to go back to the company tomorrow. You have to take care of your feet first.” Xian Zihao held her leg and did not let her escape. He did not touch her again but looked at her as he spoke faintly.

Jiang Ruolan immediately protested. ”No, I just returned to this company in less than a month and I still need a salary! If I miss working tomorrow, won't my salary of three thousand yuan be gone just like ashes?”

”Is money more important, or is your foot more important? Your ankle was so swollen that you can't even get up wearing your shoes. So tell me, how are you going to work with this kind of condition?” His eyes were gentle, but his tone was extremely serious.

Jiang Ruolan frowned and whispered, ”Money is more important.”

Xian Zihao was taken aback for a moment. With a frown, he asked, ”Since when did you start to talk back?” As he spoke, he immediately got up and lifted her by the waist.

”What are you doing?” Jiang Ruolan was shocked and could barely hold the ice bag. She looked at Xian Zihao in surprise.

”Take you to the shower.”

Jiang Ruolan did not resist but only looked up at his care eyes as he brought her to the bathroom. Xian Zihao was carrying her like she was the most precious treasure in the world, and the love in his eyes could not be faked.

Perhaps there may be some things she can accept the explanation, but it doesn't mean she can get over with it. Maybe Xian Zihao was scared if he told her a full explanation, it would push her away from him, or at least he tried to give her some time to think clearly about everything.

As he carried her into the bathroom, Jiang Ruolan unconsciously wrapped her arms around his neck.

His white casual clothes from the afternoon at the golf course had just been soaked by the rain, and now he had changed into a light gray, soft, comfortable sweater. His hair dried up very quickly. He didn't even need to do any styling. It was already very soft and shapely.

When Xian Zihao held her, he was so gentle and careful, as if he was afraid that Jiang Ruolan and their child would fall if he were not careful. Since Jiang Ruolan took the initiative to put her arms around his neck, a slight smile that could almost destroy people's hearts appeared on his handsome face.

Xian Zihao leaned over and kissed her lightly on the forehead. ”Ruolan, this rain is very meaningful to me.”

If it hadn't been for the rain, he didn't know how long this little hedgehog would have been at odds with him.
