FMLRWS Chapter 435

“Husband, my foot really hurts, sniff…” Initially, she was just shedding tears from the pain, but with his question, all her grievances exploded out like a sudden release. Luo Xi couldn’t hold back her cries any longer.

Leng Minxing pulled her hand away from her injured ankle, revealing a red and swollen area on her delicate ankle.

A flicker of guilt crossed his face. He quickly hooked her leg and picked her up, causing her to shiver slightly and pout in pain.

Leng Minxing tightened his grip around her and coaxed her in a somewhat awkward and low voice, “Be good, hang in there. I’ll take you to the hospital.”

Luo Xi nestled in his embrace. She noticed he wasn’t angry anymore and her feelings of grievance finally began to dissipate. But she still couldn’t help but complain, “It’s all your fault for walking so fast! You knew I was dizzy, and I was wearing these hard-to-wear high heels…”

Leng Minxing’s face darkened. How dare she bring this up.

“What did you promise me before you left the house?”

Luo Xi: “…I’m sorry, Brother Xing!”

Leng Minxing couldn’t help but chuckle at her somewhat flattering appearance.

In the end, he softened.

This girl truly made him feel both love and hate.

Leng Minxing placed her in the back seat and took a look at her ankle. It had already swollen considerably in such a short time.

A hint of heartache flashed across his eyes. He couldn’t help but reach out to touch it. Luo Xi winced in pain, baring her teeth and letting out a cry, which made so afraid that he hastily withdrew his hand.

When his eyes landed on her beautiful crystal high heels, his face darkened slightly. “You’re not allowed to wear such high heels in the future!”

Luo Xi gasped and nodded repeatedly. “I won’t wear them anymore.”

She wasn’t short to begin with and rarely wore such shoes. They made her feel uncomfortable, especially after twisting her ankle. She was now close to developing a phobia about them.

After arriving at the central hospital, the doctor examined her and confirmed that there were no bone injuries. Then she was advised to apply ice or heat compress and not to rub it.

Luo Xi retracted her hand helplessly and was carried away by Leng Minxing.

The surrounding people couldn’t help but stare at the tall and handsome man carrying a girl down the corridor, their eyes filled with envy as they looked at Luo Xi.

Even with her thick skin, Luo Xi felt embarrassed being carried like a princess in such a setting. It was quite awkward.

She buried her head in Leng Minxing’s embrace and clutched at his white shirt.

When they returned to the villa, it was already late.

Although he wasn’t angry with her for causing a distraction, Leng Minxing was still holding a grudge deep down.

He made it clear that she wasn’t allowed to enter his room. With an expressionless face, he tossed her back into her own room. Luo Xi felt like crying but had no tears.

He used to be so forgiving in the previous life, so what happened to him in this life?

Why did he become so harsh?

She felt so small.

Choosing to ignore her pitiful eyes, Leng Minxing said, “Get some rest,” and left the room.

The maids downstairs exchanged glances. They watched Luo Xi being carried back and secretly speculated whether something had happened between them.

There was nothing to do in their lives as maids, so their masters’ every move became their gossip and entertainment during meals.

If someone picked up on a juicy gossip, it could easily fuel conversations for a week.

After all, eating in silence was terribly boring, wasn’t it?

Leng Minxing walked out from Luo Xi’s room and noticed the maids sneaking glances from downstairs. He realized that ever since Luo Xi had arrived, their courage had grown.
