Chapter 58: A Small Reward for You
"What's going on? Is it an accident or is someone plotting something?" Xiang Qing and Huo Zhenyu entered the office, closed the door, and just as Huo Zhenyu sat down in his chair, Xiang Qing couldn't wait to ask.
Huo Zhenyi's face was still pale, and one arm under his suit was bandaged heavily at the moment, making it a bit difficult to move, so he simply rested it on the table.
"Still under investigation, results will be out soon."
"Ah, Yan, fortunately, you're not hurt. I should thank you, but since Yan is going to be your wife in the future, it's your responsibility to keep her safe and sound. So, I take back my thanks! " Xiang Qing paused for a moment before continuing: "I don't care if today was an accident or what, but next time you go on an adventure, please leave Yan out of it. My heart can't take the thought of anything happening to my sister, even if it's just losing a few strands of hair!"
"I know!" Huo Zhenyao responded faintly with three words.
Today, he indeed was negligent. If he could have foreseen the danger, he would not have taken You Ran to the construction site of Far Sky City, even if he had managed to protect her from getting hurt. He still felt pained because he almost let his deeply loved little woman take risks...
"It's fine!" Xiang Qing put away her cold expression and smiled slightly, "You Ran said you were injured, how is it? Is it serious?"
"Not dead yet."
"Oh, as long as you don't die, that's good. If you did die, I'd have to start making plans right away to find a backup for Yō Ran. Hmm, I think Gù Yī Míng would make a great backup, and he's quite compatible with Yō Ran too!"
"Qin Xiangqing!" Huo Zhenyi almost gritted his teeth, "You can get out!"
Xiang Qing tilted her head, deliberately fluttering her hair, "Mr. Huo, no need to rush me, I'll leave immediately. However, since you've rendered meritorious service by saving me, I'll give you a small reward. For the next few days, let You Ran apply medicine and change your dressings for you, how about that?"
Huo Zhenhui frowned at Qin Xiangqing, ignoring him. Xiangqing chuckled and left the office.
"Sister, what did your husband say?" You Ran looked at Qing and hurriedly ran over to ask.
Xiang Qing shook her head in a pretended helpless manner and let out a soft sigh: "You Ran, Ah Gui is such a stubborn child, my advice won't be heeded either, ah..."
Upon hearing this, her anxious face scrunched up into a ball, "What can be done then? If brother-in-law's injury is delayed, won't the consequences be very severe?"
Xiang looked at the difference and didn't scare Yōu Rán anymore, lightly pressing on Yōu Rán's shoulder. "I think there shouldn't be any problem, ā Yáng knows his own physical condition, it's just..."
"What's wrong?" she asked back with a slight frown.
"I'm too busy, I don't have time to help Aji apply medicine every day. But if I ask Luotian to do it, he's a man, rough hands and feet, and I don't feel at ease... I don't know what to do!"
"Sister, I can do it, let me apply medicine for brother-in-law!" You Ran immediately volunteered as soon as she heard.
Originally, the iron bar was going to hit her right on target, but her brother-in-law rushed over and shielded her in his arms, saving her from harm. Instead, it was her brother-in-law's arm that couldn't dodge in time and got injured by the iron bar.
At this moment, You Ran felt extremely guilty and just then her sister said she could help her brother-in-law apply the medicine, so You Ran naturally took over the task in a flurry.
"Relax, sister doesn't want to trouble you..."
"Sister, what are you talking about? What trouble is this! If I don't do something, I'll definitely feel guilty to death. Just let me help brother-in-law apply medicine every day, and I promise to take good care of his wound carefully!"
Looking at Yō Ran's serious little face, Xiǎo Qíng suppressed her smile and nodded, "Alright, Yō Ran, I'll leave it to you then!"
