Chapter 132: I Lightly Touch

~4 min read 687 words

Lu Xiwán hurried out and saw Xi Xi clutching Yao Yao's clothes tightly, crying with tears and a runny nose.

The little face was flushed from crying, and she kept coughing nonstop.

Yun Ruojin looked at Xi Xi impatiently and reached out to pull her away.

"I was just giving him some Peanut paste! Why are you crying? I didn't do anything to you!"

Yun Ruojin's emotions were on the brink of collapse; one hand held Yao Yao, the other hand tried to keep Xi Xi back.

She only wanted to get closer to Fu Yao, and never expected the little girl to cry like this?

Lu Xiwán let out a loud shout and rushed to the side of Xi Xi, who was crying like a tearful person.

"What are you doing? What are you doing to the two children!"

Yao Yao looked as if frightened, his expression blank as Yun Ruojin held his hand, his little face showing neither fear nor dread.

Lu Xiwán dried Xi Xi's tears, then quickly hugged Yao Yao, coaxing him softly, gently pinching his little face and saying it's okay.

"Can't you ask before giving a child food? Yao Yao is allergic to peanuts; eating them would cause a serious problem!"

Lu Xiwán scolded Yun Ruojin harshly, her voice sharp from anger, and reached out to knock over the small bowl Yun Ruojin was holding.

The soup spilled all over the floor, splattering everywhere.

Yun Ruojin stood awkwardly to the side, her face as pale as paper.

"How would I know he can't eat peanuts? I'm doing it for his sake! You're not his birth mother!"

"Whether she's the child's birth mother or not, I still have to be responsible for her! If something bad comes from eating, who can afford the responsibility?"

Yun Ruojin, unable to hold her composure after being scolded, reached out and shoved Lu Xiwán in venting anger.

Lu Xiwán, holding Yao Yao, couldn't dodge and was shoved to the ground, her ankle twisting hard.

Xi Xi had never seen such a scene; she rushed to help Lu Xiwán, but was frightened by her ashen face, froze, and burst into a wail of tears.

Yao Yao was placed steadily aside by Lu Xiwán, not a single hair out of place, while she herself clutched her ankle and couldn't stand for a long time.

Yun Ruojin panicked, "Don't play the victim! I only gave you a light push; you didn't stand steady yourself!"

Fu Sijue, hearing the commotion, rushed over and saw the scene, immediately putting on a gloomy face and ordering the Steward to summon a doctor.

"A Jue, listen to my explanation, it's really not like that, I only gave her a gentle tap, and she fell on her own; these two children can testify for me!"

Yun Ruojin, panicking, grabbed Xi Xi's collar and pulled her over.

Xi Xi kept sobbing, hiccupping, and dodging Yun Ruojin's hand; even if Fu Sijue were blind, he could see what was happening.

He didn't hesitate to lift Lu Xiwán, bypassed the wailing Yun Ruojin, and walked out.

As soon as they stepped out, they ran into Luo Zhou coming in from outside.

"What's happening?! Wanwan, you were here for less than a night and already like this!" Luo Zhou, seeing Lu Xiwán sweating cold from the pain, anxiously stopped Fu Sijue and asked.

"I don't have time to explain now; she needs a doctor! If you don't want to delay her treatment, step aside quickly!"

Hearing that, Luo Zhou involuntarily stepped aside, watching resentfully as Fu Sijue led Lu Xiwán away.

The Steward brought the doctor in at top speed.

Lu Xiwán's ankle swelled huge; even a light touch made her gasp in pain.

Just looking at it was terrifying.

"The bones aren't broken; she may need to stay in bed for a few days, with regular dressing changes and massage."

The doctor handed Lu Xiwán two boxes of medicine; her lips were ashen, and she dared not move while lying in bed.

Xi Xi stopped crying, kept hiccupping, and even Yao Yao's eyes had tears constantly swirling.
