Chapter 12

When I came out of the police station, the night was getting darker, and there was not a single star in the pitch-black sky, and even the moon was hidden behind the clouds.

The wind chill in the middle of the night was even worse, Xuan Li gathered her coat tightly, stood on the steps and exhaled, the white mist swirled around her eyes for a few times before gradually dissipating.

She stood a little sore and wanted to jump down from the stairs to move around, but her feet were empty and she fell straight down.

Just as Jiang Cheng came out from the inside, what he saw was Xuan Li falling to the ground like a butterfly with its wings broken.

Annoyed, she stood up from the ground, only glanced at the scratched palms, then focused on the dirty cuffs, and patted the dust on the coat.

"How can you get yourself into trouble when I'm not around?"

Hearing his voice gradually approaching, Xuan Li immediately put her hands behind her back with a guilty conscience.

Jiang Cheng's tone was uncompromising, "Stretch out your hand and let me see."

She lowered her head and dared not look at him, "I'm sorry, I accidentally stained your clothes..."

Obviously he was injured, but his first reaction was still to take care of his clothes.

Jiang Cheng's eyelids twitched, and he pulled her hand forcefully, half of the plain white palm was already bloodshot, making his eyes hurt from the shake.

He was glad that he had bought more iodophor, and reminded her softly while breaking off the cotton swab: "It will hurt a little, you can yell out, I'm not laughing at you."

The next second of the cold touch, stinging pain hit densely, and Xuan Li subconsciously wanted to withdraw his hand, but he pinched his fingers.

Although the wound area was not large, the Band-Aid couldn't cover it.

Jiang Cheng squatted down, "Roll up your pants and let me see."

She took two steps back shyly, "The legs are fine."

He looked up at her with a playful look in his eyes, "Didn't you say that you don't need to cover up in front of me?"

Jiang Cheng clearly saw that the knee of her right leg was on the ground.

Xuanli's cheeks were slightly hot, and she slowly lifted up the wide leg of school trousers, revealing her slender and straight calf.

Her calf is well-proportioned and fair, without a trace of fat, and is just right.

His eyelids jumped again.

Jiang Cheng lowered his eyes, and his eyes fell on her knee that was still bleeding from the broken skin.

Seeing that he was already holding a povidone iodine swab to apply to the wound, she hurriedly said, "I can do it myself here!"

He paused and stood up, "Okay, you come."

Xuan Li took the iodophor cotton swab from him, limped and sat down on the steps with his knees bent slowly under his half-smiling gaze.

She frowned tightly in pain, but didn't say a word.

"Don't put your trouser legs down, the fabric will stick to the wound." Jiang Cheng squatted down in front of her, "Now you are injured, come up."

Xuan Li pursed her lips in confusion, "I... I can go by myself."

He turned half his body sideways, eyes drooping lazily, "I've always been so aggressive, but you're just a kid."

She retorted solemnly: "I am an adult, not a child."

Jiang Cheng stood up and looked down at her with absolute height, "It's only as high as my shoulders, and he looks like a junior high school student, so you're not a kid?"

Xuanli had no choice but to give up arguing with him, and opened her hands resignedly, "Don't think I'm too heavy for a while."

His clothes were too big for her. When she stretched out her hand like this, the sleeves were so long that they hung down, like a petite zombie.

Jiang Cheng rolled up her sleeves before turning around and squatting down again, "Come on, little girl Xuan Xiaoli."

She hooked the back of his neck carefully, for fear of falling, her legs were still tightly wrapped around his waist.

He chuckled, "Big brother can't even stand up if you push so hard."

Hearing this, Xuanli loosened her strength in embarrassment and shame, and explained palely: "I...I'm afraid of falling."

Jiang Cheng stood up easily with her on his back, "It's as light as a piece of paper, yet you still think you're heavy? Don't worry, even if you fall and become disabled, I will push the wheelchair for you in the future."

She was so frightened that her back tensed, and her hands gripped his shoulders uneasily.

"I still have to go to university, I can't use a wheelchair!"

He was amused by her serious and frightened voice, but he still intentionally frightened her, "It's okay, physical disability doesn't affect Zhijian."

Xuan Li struggled to get down, "Then I'd better get down by myself."

"Don't move around, or I will really throw you."

She didn't dare to move any more, she lay on his shoulder peacefully.

The night was getting dark, and she fell into a deep sleep with tiredness rising.

One second before his consciousness blurred, he was still thinking about the leeks that fell on the ground.

"Chives... waste."

Xuan Li's voice was like a soft feather scratching his ears, Jiang Cheng couldn't help laughing, he was really a child.

Xuan Ran sat in the hall for more than an hour, but still did not see the two of them back, pacing back and forth anxiously.

"Where did brother Jiang Cheng take that wild girl from the countryside?"

Until the door of the courtyard house was pushed open, she was overjoyed and ran towards the door, but stopped abruptly when she saw Jiang Cheng carrying Xuanli on his back.

Xuan Ran's surprised smile froze, she stared gloomily at the sleeping person lying on top of Jiang Cheng, and gritted her teeth.

"Brother Jiang Cheng, why are you carrying her back?"

Jiang Cheng glanced at her, "Keep down, don't wake her up."

She had always listened to him, so she could only purse her lips unwillingly, and never took her eyes off Xuan Li.

After putting Xuanli on the bed, Jiang Cheng went home and brought the bandages.

Xuan Ran watched him bandage the wounds on Xuan Li's knees and palms, his heart was bubbling with soreness.

She had never received such caring treatment from Jiang Cheng, and she gritted her teeth angrily.

Next time she goes to fight with someone and gets injured!
After Jiang Cheng finished everything, he stood up and told Xuan Ran, "Ran Ran, wipe her face and take off her coat."

Xuan Ran looked away, and snorted coldly: "I don't want it."

His eyes were slightly cold, and his tone sounded like a warning: "Disobedient?"

She was so angry that she snorted forcefully through her nose, closed her eyes, "Understood, brother Jiang Cheng, go back."

Before going out, Jiang Cheng glanced at the person who had rolled over on the bed again, and nodded lightly, "Watch Ting Xuan doing his homework tomorrow, go to bed early."

Xuan Ran could barely smile at Jiang Cheng, but when he turned to look at Xuan Li, there was no smile at all.

But she had to listen to Jiang Cheng's instructions, so she had to fetch a basin of hot water, cursing in her heart while wiping Xuan Li's face.

The clothes on Xuan Li were all too familiar to her, it was the coat that Jiang Cheng wore when he went out tonight.

Xuan Ran snorted coldly in his heart: Damn girl, Brother Jiang Cheng took care of her the first day she came here.

After undressing Xuan Li, Xuan Ran reluctantly threw the quilt over her body, covering half of her face.

Xuan Li snorted softly, and Xuan Ran, who had already walked to the door, stepped back, pulling down the quilt that covered her mouth and nose with a worried expression.

"What a troublemaker."
