The two of them walked along the small path. Ye Ling felt her calf hurting more and more, but she gritted her teeth and endured it.
When they reached a steep slope, Ye Ling couldn’t bear it anymore. Her legs gave out, and she fell to the ground.
Min Nan was momentarily stunned, then quickly approached and anxiously asked, ‘You said you were fine. What’s happening? Did you hurt yourself?”
Min Nan had already sensed that something was off with Ye Ling’s condition, but since she had insisted that she was fine, he hadn’t pressed further.
Additionally, he suspected that Ye Ling might be experiencing her monthly period, and he had heard that girls often felt unwell during that time. With this thought, he felt even more awkward about prying.
After Ye Ling fell, she instinctively placed her hand on her leg. Seeing this, Min Nan frowned and said, “What’s wrong with your leg?”
Ye Ling hastily replied, “It’s nothing, just that I’ve been walking a lot today, and my legs are a bit sore.”
“Let me take a look.” Min Nan’s skepticism was evident. Without waiting for Ye Ling to respond, he rolled up her pant leg. He then noticed a dark red scar on Ye Ling’s calf, and at that moment, the scar was faintly oozing blood.
Min Nan’s brows furrowed. Based on his experience, this wound seemed like a puncture wound.
Could it be that Ye Ling’s calf had been pierced by something sharp when she fell off the cliff?
The thought of that searing pain made Min Nan’s heart twist, and he said in a somber tone, “Why didn’t you mention being injured? This wound is quite deep.
It’s not something to take lightly.”
Even he, a man, felt a pang of pain just looking at such a wound. Not to mention Ye Ling, a young girl in her teens. How did she manage to endure it?
Ye Ling hadn’t anticipated that Min Nan would notice her leg wound. Her leg wound wasn’t a big deal anymore. It just looked a bit alarming. Seeing Min
Nan’s slightly angry expression, she hesitated and said softly, “Big Brother Min Nan, it’s not a big deal. You know I’m a doctor, and I can handle an injury like this on my own.”
“I only know that you’re in pain!” Min Nan’s voice carried a hint of anger, but he regretted it the moment the words left his mouth. He quickly lowered his voice, and he explained with a bit of confusion, “I’m not blaming you, but now that you’re living with us, there are many things you don’t have to face alone. We’re more than willing to help. So, in the future, don’t hide things like this, okay?”
It was rare for Ye Ling to witness Min Nan’s emotional agitation, and she was taken aback by his anger just now.
But miraculously, Ye Ling didn’t feel afraid when faced with Min Nan’s anger. She could feel that Min Nan was angry because she cared about her.
Ye Ling took a deep breath and spoke softly, “Alright, I understand, Big Brother
Min Nan. From now on, I’ll let you know if anything happens.”
Only then did Min Nan release a sigh of relief? At the same time, he blamed himself for using that tone to speak with Ye Ling. What if he scared Ye Ling?
Min Nan lowered his head, inspecting the wound on Ye Ling’s leg. To his relief, the wound didn’t show any signs of infection. Its healing progress seemed normal, and there was no indication of it worsening. Min Nan let out another sigh of relief.
As the worry in his heart gradually dispersed, Min Nan suddenly felt that something was amiss.
He realized that his right hand was gripping Ye Ling’s delicate and fair ankle.
Her skin, fair and tender, occupied his entire field of vision.
Min Nan’s mind went blank for a moment, and the hand that touched Ye Ling’s skin felt as if it were scalded.
Ye Ling finally felt that something was wrong. She lowered her head and saw Min Nan’s hand holding her ankle. The man’s palm was wide and there was a thin layer of calluses on his knuckles. When he rubbed against her delicate skin, it brought about a ticklish feeling.
As if an electric current flowed from her ankle throughout her entire body, Ye Ling’s face turned red in an instant. She twisted her leg and struggled slightly, then said, “Big Brother Min Nan, let’s hurry back. We shouldn’t make Wan Feng and the others worry.”
Ye Ling had initially wanted to pretend that nothing had happened, but she didn’t expect Min Nan to be so sincere and apologize to her. Her face turned even redder, and she hurriedly said, “It’s alright. I know you’re just concerned about me.”
After a few awkvvard moments, Min Nan noticed that the sun had turned Ye Ling’s face even redder. He then suggested, “Let me carry you back. You shouldn’t keep walking.”
Ye Ling felt a bit embarrassed, but since Min Nan had seen the wound on her leg, she had no reason to insist on walking. After a brief hesitation, she nodded and said, “Okay..”
