Hello, Heir

Thereafter, she heard the sound of footsteps approaching her.

Zhuang Nainai was stunned. From the mirror, she could see Si Zhengting’s indifferent expression as he walked towards her one step at a time. Shortly after, he was right behind her.

Zhuang Nainai looked towards him with her bloodshot eyes. While she was thinking about how to explain what had happened just now, Si Zhengting suddenly bent over.

Zhuang Nainai felt a pair of big hands supporting her lower back. For a short while, she felt her head spinning. When she finally realized what was going on, she was already in Si Zhengting’s tight embrace.

Zhuang Nainai was completely stunned. What was Si Zhengting… trying to do?

While she stared with her gigantic eyes, Si Zhengting carried her onto the bed and lightly placed her on it. Shortly after, she felt a pair of big hands holding onto her ankle.

As soon as Zhuang Nainai lowered her head, she saw Si Zhengting’s warm, big hands holding onto her ankle. As if he was performing conjuring tricks, he took out a small bottle and opened it. The strong, pungent smell of an essential oil came out from the bottle.

Zhuang Nainai froze instantly.

A thought suddenly came to her, but… how was this possible?

While she was deliberating, she saw Si Zhengting opening the bottle of massage essential oil. He dripped two drops of it onto her ankle, then held her ankle with his big, warm hands.

It really… is like this!

While in a daze, Zhuang Nainai opened her eyes widely. As she was feeling bewildered, a flood of heat gradually filled up her inner heart and spread towards the hundreds of bones in her body. That feeling of loneliness, as if she was the only one left in the world, gradually disappeared.

She bit her lips. Through his small gesture, she felt how caring and considerate he was.

Zhuang Nainai blinked her eyes repeatedly. She wanted to force back the tears that had already emerged from her eyes and say something touching or other words of gratitude.

Yet… just as she was about to speak, that pair of big hands suddenly pushed her ankle with all its might.

“Ouch! It hurts!!”

In an instant, the warm and caring atmosphere disappeared thoroughly along with these words.

With her swollen eyes, she curled her lips and looked at Si Zhengting with resentment, as if she was complaining against his violence.

Si Zhengting obliviously twitched his lips. This look of hers really made people want to tease her for a moment.

Looking at her again, he initially didn’t want to explain but suddenly said, “Bear with it, it won’t be painful after a while.”

Sure enough, the pain that followed got weaker and weaker. Even until the very end, she could only feel a warm current surging from her ankle.

The warmth from his big hands made Zhuang Nainai feel almost as if she got scalded. Deep down, her heart was pounding from nervousness.

After Si Zhengting had finished massaging, he gestured for Zhuang Nainai to get off the bed and try walking a few steps.

“Wow, it really isn’t painful anymore! Si Zhengting, why are you so amazing!”

Zhuang Nainai’s eyes brightened up as she stepped on the carpet and walked very carefully.

She had originally thought that she had to go to work with a limp. Now, this was great!

Looking at her, Si Zhengting couldn’t help but smile.

Although her eyes were still red and swollen, that joyful expression on her face at this very moment wasn’t for show.

Si Zhengting couldn’t understand — how could there be such a simple girl in this world? She became so happy just because her ankle didn’t hurt anymore? Her heart was exactly the same as it was five years ago.

He had initially thought that he was being too accommodating towards her, but at this very moment, a faint feeling of joy surged from deep in his heart.

It seemed like as long as he could see her smile, he was more than contented.
