"Brother said your leg and arm are injured. Is it serious? Does it hurt?"
An Kexin pulled Lin Miao to sit together opposite Lin Jie and said, "It's just some skin abrasions, no big deal, it hasn't hurt for a while now."
While saying this, she extended her left leg onto Lin Jie's lap, explaining softly, "When I was driving about two or three kilometers from here, I found a street tree blown down by the strong wind, blocking the road ahead, and the way back was blocked due to a traffic jam."
Lin Jie listened to her recount her experience while carefully using tweezers to clean out small gravel and other debris embedded in the wound!
"I had no choice but to park the car by the roadside and get out to walk!"
"In such strong wind and rain, an umbrella was completely useless, and I got soaked all over in no time."
"Even worse, the road was completely waterlogged, and I slipped accidentally."
"Water got into my bag, my phone got wet, and one of my shoes was washed away. I had to walk here barefoot, step by step!"
"Wasn't I miserable and unlucky enough?"
At this moment, An Kexin did not have the demeanor of a professional strong woman, but rather resembled a little girl boasting about her thrilling experience.
Lin Miao held her arm sympathetically and said, "It was really scary. I remember the news reported that some cities were flooded due to heavy rain, and several people drowned."
"Kexin, why don't you stay here tonight and wait until the wind stops and the rain eases tomorrow to go back."
An Kexin looked around at the decorations in the living room and said, "That's all I can do. I'll call Dad later and let him know!"
At this moment, Lin Jie held a piece of medical cotton soaked in disinfecting alcohol and said, "Kexin, I need to disinfect your wound, bear with it for a moment!"
An Kexin nonchalantly replied, "I'm not a five or six-year-old girl, this little pain...hiss!"
The sudden intensity of the pain exceeded An Kexin's expectations, and her foot involuntarily shrank back, caught swiftly by Lin Jie.
Lin Jie said softly, "Don't move!"
An Kexin's foot was caught, seeming as if she was under a spell, staying still while Lin Jie disinfected the wound on the outside of her calf. Then, he sprayed an anti-inflammatory solution and wrapped it in breathable gauze.
Afterward, Lin Jie proceeded to treat the abrasions on her arm.
An Kexin looked down, somewhat embarrassed, and said in a low voice, "My right foot sole... also hurts a bit!"
Lin Jie placed her right foot on his lap to examine the sole.
At this moment, he noticed how perfect An Kexin's feet were, not an exaggeration at all.
The skin on her feet was fair and lustrous, with veins vaguely visible, and the lines were slender and elegant—a pair of feet that hadn't suffered hardships and had been meticulously cared for since childhood!
At this moment, Lin Jie entered a doctor mode, focusing his attention on the sole.
Soon, he found the cause of An Kexin's pain—a small glass shard was lodged in the heel.
After removing the glass shard and thoroughly checking her other foot, Lin Jie finally resolved the issue.
He looked up to find An Kexin still lowering her head, yet it was evident her face was flushed pink, even her neck was red, and he asked with concern, "Kexin, your face is very red, are you running a fever?"
"Not a fever, I just... just... it'll be alright in a moment!" An Kexin replied somewhat flustered.
Lin Jie didn't pay much attention to her vague words, stood up and said, "I'll go prepare dinner, Miaomiao, keep Kexin company and chat!"
