Chapter 239: Chapter 238

Through the words of the nurse, Xu Niannian almost instantly figured it out.

The handsome guy in front of her is probably an idiot.

It wasn’t his brother who had an amputation, but rather him; could he be a psychiatric patient who had snuck out?

When Jin Ruiyang was led away by the nurse, he couldn’t bring himself to look back.

Damn, for the first time, he felt the embarrassment as if he had lost face all the way to his grandma’s house.

Jin Yu, that bastard, never forgets to take advantage of him, even in front of strangers.

He actually told the nurse he was his brother.

Come on, his cover was blown in front of a beauty.

What would the beauty think of him?

Jin Ruiyang wished he could drag Jin Yu out and execute him a thousand times over.

His journey of romance hasn’t even started, and it’s already over.

No, he can’t give up.

With such a beautiful girl, how could he not make a move?

He will definitely catch up.

Meanwhile, after Jin Ruiyang was taken away, Xu Zhiqiang and Xu Dawei arrived, with Yang Cuihua following behind them, wiping away her tears.

Xu Niannian was carried home on Xu Zhiqiang’s back.

In the shop, Xu Sisi was responsible for billing, while Zhao Pang, Chen Xiaorou, and others greeted the customers.

"Oh, my poor Baby Nian." Yang Cuihua kept saying with heartache all the way, and Xu Niannian helplessly said, "Mom, I’m fine now, the doctor said it’s a minor injury."

Yang Cuihua wouldn’t believe it: "What minor injury. Look how pale your face is from the pain. Mom sees you’ve lost weight. You say it’s not serious."

Xu Niannian: "..."

Lost weight... Did she eat the Immortal Pill? She lost weight in just one day.

When she got home, Yang Cuihua immediately stewed a chicken for Xu Niannian.

Xu Niannian drank two full bowls of chicken soup before she went to sleep.

In the middle of her sleep, something itched on her face.

Xu Niannian’s senses immediately snapped back, and she abruptly opened her eyes.

Seeing Jin Yu’s magnified handsome face, Xu Niannian sighed with relief, "Why do you always sneak into my room?"

Jin Yu, looking at her as if she were a small kitten, pinched her earlobe.

"I’m back."

Xu Niannian turned over, "I can see that. I’m not blind."

Her voice was soft, making Jin Yu’s heart itch.

Jin Yu pulled her up.

"Niannian, I missed you."

"Hmm, good boy." Xu Niannian rubbed his head.

Jin Yu chuckled, then pinched her face, "Did you miss me?"

"No." Xu Niannian answered honestly, "I’ve been so busy I almost forgot about you."

Jin Yu felt a blow to his ego, "Niannian, let’s get married."

"So soon?" Xu Niannian refused, "It’s too soon to get married just after we started dating. I don’t want to."

So soon to step into the grave of marriage, a firm no.

Jin Yu said it offhandedly, knowing she still didn’t have the desire to marry him.

But seeing how quickly she refused, without a hint of hesitation, Jin Yu felt hurt.

The hand pinching her earlobe subconsciously tightened,

Xu Niannian pushed him away irritably, "Be gentle, I’m a person with disabilities."

"Where are you injured?" Jin Yu asked urgently upon hearing this.

Xu Niannian lifted her blanket, and Jin Yu instinctively turned away, his ears turning red, "Niannian, we aren’t married yet."

Xu Niannian: "..."

Did he think she wasn’t wearing anything?

At least she had her pajama pants on.

Still wearing long legged pajama pants.

Seeing his ears turn red again, she couldn’t help but stifle a laugh.

With utmost seriousness, he plotted to trick Xu Niannian into marriage, "Since we’re not married, you’re not allowed to look."

Xu Niannian chuckled, pinching his ear and twisting it around, "You’re such a pretender."

Jin Yu: "..."

Xu Niannian: "I’ve put on pants, you can turn around now."

Jin Yu turned around as she had said.

Xu Niannian pointed at her swollen ankle, "Look, I’m a person with a disability now, my foot has swollen up."

Jin Yu took a look and indeed felt distressed.

He held her foot and his brows furrowed into a knot, "How could you be so careless? Do we have any medicinal oil at home?"

His display of concern was particularly comforting to Xu Niannian.

Cough cough, being valued so much by her boyfriend, Xu Niannian felt very happy.

Having been single all her previous life, she had no idea what it felt like to have a boyfriend who cared.

It’s quite embarrassing to speak of.

"There is medicinal oil in the cabinet. I used it once, and it still hurts a bit. Can you get it for me and apply it?"

Without another word, Jin Yu went to get the medicinal oil.

He placed Xu Niannian’s foot on his leg, poured some medicinal oil into his palm and carefully massaged it into her ankle.

However, no matter how careful, it still hurt,

A sprain, if it’s a minor one, it hurts only when you touch it, but a severe one hurts even without any contact.

Xu Niannian belonged to the kind that hurt without any touch.

During the night, the pain woke her up several times in her drowsy state.

Now that Jin Yu touched it, it hurt even more.

She couldn’t help but let out a hiss, "Gently, gently."

"I haven’t even applied much force yet. Just bear with it," Jin Yu spoke softly and began to firmly massage her injured foot.

Xu Niannian hummed softly, sounding delicate and tender.

Jin Yu, who could interpret things in a twisted way, stiffened, but continued to rub her foot.

Caught up with the pain, Xu Niannian didn’t notice Jin Yu’s reaction.

As he massaged her painfully, she kept saying, "Softer, softer..."

The young girl’s voice was too alluring, causing Jin Yu’s mind to go "boom" and he nearly had a nosebleed.

This is really ridiculous.

As his mind went out of control, the strength in his hands became uneven.

With a tearful tone, Xu Niannian said, "Jin Yu... softer, you’re going to break my foot."

Jin Yu: "..."

Xu Niannian, in pain, thought several times to withdraw her foot, but Jin Yu held on tight, leaving her both anxious and helpless.

Jin Yu held back and said, "Don’t talk."

Xu Niannian looked bewildered at him, suddenly stern.

Meeting her bewildered and innocent gaze, Jin Yu said in a low, raspy voice, "Tch, you little girl, don’t look at me like that."

"What did I do to upset you?"

Xu Niannian sniffled, kicking him with her uninjured foot, "Hurry up and go back. Don’t stay here and risk my mom seeing us."

"So this is using me and then denying the account," Jin Yu said, amused and resigned as she brazenly urged him to leave.

Both of them were unaware that Yang Cuihua, who had gotten up to use the bathroom, had overheard their conversation from outside the door.

She heard all the things she shouldn’t have, yet missed the things she should’ve heard.

Yang Cuihua covered her mouth, feeling somewhat panicked. As someone who had been through it all, she misunderstood her daughter and future son-in-law.

Surprised by their boldness, Yang Cuihua made up her mind that they had to get married.

Tomorrow she would ask Jin Yu, and if Jin Yu dared to disagree, she would chop him on the spot with a knife.

Of course, if he agreed, then he would still be her good son-in-law.
