I waved my hand dismissively. "I'm fine, just twisted it a bit. I'll be okay in a moment."
Tang Mufeng hesitated for a moment before speaking softly, "Miss, I have learned some medical skills and know of herbs that can promote blood circulation and reduce swelling. Please wait here; I will find some medicine for you."
I couldn't help but recall that I had arranged for Tang Mufeng to study medicine. It seemed that my foresight was sometimes quite useful.
Before leaving, Tang Mufeng repeatedly urged me not to wander around or stay alone in one place.
"Miss, if you're afraid of the dark, you can call my name," he said, his ears turning red.
I thought to myself, "Is this guy treating me like a three-year-old? Afraid of the dark... Me, the youngest daughter of the Grand Marshal's family? What a joke!"
Though, I did have a slight fear of the dark... But how could I let him know that?
"Alright, alright, just go," I urged impatiently.
After Tang Mufeng left, I waited idly. After a while, he returned with several herbs that he chewed briefly before placing them on my ankle.
"Miss, this medicine can reduce swelling and relieve pain. Please bear with it," Tang Mufeng said quietly.
I nodded and moved my ankle. Sure enough, the pain had subsided. However, the problem was that I still couldn't walk.
As the sky began to darken, I felt a bit anxious.
"Miss, how about..." Tang Mufeng hesitated as he looked at me, "How about I carry you down the mountain?"
"You carry me?" I was somewhat surprised.
Tang Mufeng nodded slightly. "Mm."
I looked at Tang Mufeng's slender frame and hesitated for a moment. Although I was only in my teens, I had the figure of a standard beauty, with all the right curves...
Would he really not get tired carrying me?
"Miss, don't worry, I'm fine," Tang Mufeng said quickly, thinking I was concerned about his stamina.
I remained silent.
Alright, maybe I was overthinking it.
I nodded. "Okay then."
I placed my hand on Tang Mufeng's shoulder, and he bent down to lift me onto his back.
The warmth of his body was palpable even through our clothes. His muscles were firm and hard, making me feel a bit uncomfortable.
"Miss, your hand..." Tang Mufeng turned his head slightly, his cheek brushing against my chest.
I jumped in surprise and instinctively withdrew my hand.
Tang Mufeng explained, "If you rest your hand on my shoulder, you won't fall off."
I realized what he meant and felt a bit embarrassed. I responded awkwardly and placed my hand back on his shoulder.
Tang Mufeng continued to carry me down the mountain at a steady pace. His hands supported my hips, and his fingertips grazed my skin, sending strange tingles through me.
After holding it in for a while, I finally couldn't help but ask softly, "Um... are your hands tired? Do you want to take a break?"
Tang Mufeng paused for a moment. "Not tired, Miss."
As he spoke, he held my hand gently.
I: "......"
What’s with this guy? Why does he always have to get so hands-on?
"Miss, you're holding onto me," Tang Mufeng said softly.
I: "......"
Hold him?
Isn't that a bit inappropriate?
"This way is more efficient," Tang Mufeng explained.
I: "......"
Fine then.
Wanyi was furious when she saw I was hurt.
With tears and snot, she scolded me, "How could you be so useless? You’re a grown person and you still managed to sprain your ankle!"
I: "......"
I finally understood; it turns out this girl had been polite to me before.
This is her true self!
